1.Autumn blues?Let the sunshine in.Falling leaves,dead flowers,cold winds,faint sunshine.(71)F Spirits can be low.
People who suffer from"the autumn blues"often are extremely exhausted,lack energy,need more sleep,feel increased appetite and gain weight.
"The exact cause of this condition,often called seasonal depression or seasonal affective disorder (SAD),is not known yet,"says Chen Jue,associate professor at Shanghai Mental Health Center."But recent studies indicate that weather change is influential and strongly suggest that this condition is caused by changes in the availability of sunlight."
One theory is that with decreased exposure to sunlight,the biological clock that controls mood,sleep,and hormones is delayed,running more slowly in winter.(72)A.Another theory is that brain chemicals that transmit(传输) information between nerves may be changed in individuals with SAD.It is believed that exposure to light can correct these imbalances.
"(73)C Remember,spring always lives in your heart,"Chen says.
Here are some tips to deal with autumn depression.
•Go outdoors and get some sunlight.Move around.Fresh air and exercise improve the respiratory(呼吸)system and blood circulation and regulate the nervous system.Thus,exercise is calming and relieves one's mood.

If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher's interest,clearly a bright child will be likely to"play safe",this is to say,to avoid using words he is not sure of.He will tend to write only words within his spelling range,choosing to avoid adventurous language.That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.In this way,students will be able to express their ideas more freely.
I was once shocked to read on the bottom,of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience:"This word is terrible!There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible (难以辨认的)."It may have been a sharp criticism(批评) of the pupil's technical abilities in writing,but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had failed to read the essay,which contained some beautiful expressions of the child's deep feelings.The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors,but if his priorities had centered on the child's ideas,an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.
