She started telling me stories about her new boyfriend, ab out how he experimented with drugs and was into other self-destructive behavior. I was blown away!

Sadness is unpleasant, and in a society where personal hap piness is prized above all else, there is little tolerance for falling in despair. Especially now we’ve got drugs for getting rid of sad feelings — whether it’s after losing a job, the break-
up of a relationship or the death of a loved one. So it’s no surpri se that more and more people are taking them.
But is this really such a good idea? A growing number of voices from the world of mental health research are saying it isn’t. The y fear that the increasing tendency to treat normal sadness as a
disease is playing fast and loose. Sadness, they argue, serves a useful purpose—
and if we lose it, we lose out. Yet many psychiatrists insist not. Sadness has a unpleasant habit of turning into depression they warn. Even when people are sad for good reason, they should t ake drugs to make themselves feel better.
So who is right? Is sadness something we cannot live without o r something horrible never to touch? There are lots of ideas abo ut why feeling sad should become part of human life. It may be a kind of self-protection, as other primates (灵长
类) also show signs of sadness. A losing monkey that doesn’t s how sadness after it loses a fight may be seen as continuing to challenge the winning monkey — and that could result in death. In humans sadness has a further function: we may display sadn ess as a form of communication. By acting sad, we tell other co mmunity members that we need support.
Then there is the idea that creativity is connected to dark mood s. There are plenty of great artists, writers and musicians who h ave suffered from depression or disorder. Scientists found that people with signs of depression performed better at a creative t ask, and negative moods make people think deeply over the un happy experience, which allows creative processes to come to t he front. There is also evidence that too much happiness can b
e bad for your career. A doctor found that people who scored 8 out o
f 10 on a happiness test were more successful in income a nd education than 9s or 10s. The happiest people lose their willi ngness to make changes to their lives that may benefit them.
13. The underlined word “this” refers to ________.
A. taking medicine
B. falling in despair
C. losing a job
D. feeling sad
14. The author believes sadness is ________.
A. a good thing for people’s health
B. something horrible never to touch
C. a necessary function of humans
D. always to be treated as depression
15. Some animals show their sadness in order to ________.
A. cheat their enemy
B. protect themselves
C. comfort the loser
D. challenge the winner
16. We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.
A. people with great creativity tend to be happier
B. unhappy experiences contribute to a greater career
C. too much happiness can be bad for your career
D. the happiest people are the most successful ones
