With access to the Internet come some truly life-changing advantages. One of the greatest benefits is that the Internet has brought with     1     the convenience of shopping at our leisure (闲暇) in the comfort of our own home. However, for many, the appeal of shopping for bargains (物美价廉的商品) and treats can turn into an addiction. Experts believe there is a danger that online shopping can develop into a mental illness.     2     (research) from the Hannover Medical School in Germany have termed it “Buying Shopping Disorder”(BSD). They say this condition should     3     (recognize) by the medical profession as an illness and should not     4     (simple) be classed as one of the various “impulse control” disorders. Psychotherapist Dr. Astrid Miller said, “It really is time to     5     (broad) our knowledge about BSD on the Internet.”

Dr. Miller and her colleagues     6     (conduct) research on data from earlier studies on compulsive shopping. Their research focused on 122 patients     7     sought treatment for BSD. Dr. Muller reported that about five percent of the population may be suffering from BSD. She added younger people are     8     (likely) to develop it and     9     they experience greater levels of anxiety and depression. People with BSD readily exhibit negative behaviors. These include buying expensive things they don’t need, keeping and never     10     (use) things they order, buying things for immediate satisfaction, and ending up in debt. BSD can destroy marriages, relationships, and mental health.
