【解析】

试题分析：本文通过一项最新研究表明，每天花在智能手机上的时间超过一小时可能表明你正在患抑郁症的一个迹象，通过本文考查学生的词性在语境中的正确运用能力。包括动词的时态，非谓语动词，副词，代词，连词，冠词等。

1.a 考查冠词。study在这里是可数名词，意思是：研究。本文就是讲的这项研究发现，所以要用不定冠词a。

2.using 考查固定用法。spend后面加动词的-ing形式，构成动宾结构，use的-ing形式是去掉末尾的字母e，再加-ing。意思是：花在手机上的时间越多，得抑郁症的可能性越大。

3.to 考查固定用法。这里是考查be likely to do意思是：很可能......。这里与the +形容词/副词比较级+主语+谓语，the +形容词/副词比较级+主语+谓语，意思是：越......，越......。

4.goings 考查名词的复数。意思是：用GPS跟踪他们的手机来监测人们的踪迹也有助于跟踪他们的心情。这里用comings提示后面用goings，comings and goings 意思是：来去的踪迹。

5.linked 考查固定用法。be linked to 意思是：与......有关。大部分的时间在家与人的抑郁有关。

6.irregular 考查词的变化。后面的 unusual提示前面用irregular，意思是：不规则、不正常的生活方式与抑郁有关。

7.When 考查连词。当人们产生抑郁时，就不太愿意出门做事。When引导时间主语从句。

8.that/which 考查定语从句的关系词。 在The data 68 showed depressed people tended not to go many places 中，68 showed depressed people tended not to go many places是定语从句修饰前面的名词The data，在从句中做主语，用关系代词that/which，代替物。

9. 考查谓语动词的用法。本文是一篇科学研究，应该用一般现在时，the data是主语，相当于it，所以谓语动词应该用单三形式，即:reflects。

10. 考查介词。这项发现的重要性是我们不用去问手机使用者任何问题就可以检测出一个人是否患有抑郁症和抑郁症的严重程度。
