【题目】It’s OK to have ups and downs in your feeling, but having low self-esteem isn’t OK. Feeling like you’re not important can make you sad and can keep you from trying new things.1 Having strong self-esteem is also a very big part of growing up; as you get older and face tough decisions-especially under peer pressure—the more self-esteem you have, the better.

If you think you might have low self-esteem, try talking to an adult you trust about it.2 In addition, here are a few things that you can try to promote your self-esteem:

Remember that your body is your own, no matter what shapes, size, or color it is. If you are worried about your weight or size, you can check with your doctor to make sure that things are OK.3 You should accept and love these things because they are part of you. Remind yourself of things about your body that are cool, like, “My legs are strong and I can skate really well.”4 The critical voice inside you will soon lose its power.

Praise yourself every day. Don’t just say, “I’m so great.” Be specific about something good about yourself, like, “I was a good friend to Jill today” or “I did better on that test than I thought I would.”5 Even if you’ve got room for improvement, realizing that you’re valuable and important helps your self-esteem shine.

A. Remember that there are things about yourself you can’t change.

B. It can keep you from making friends or hurt how to do at school.

C. It is important to know you’re worth a lot.

D. By focusing on the good things and your great qualities, you learn to love and accept yourself.

E. When you hear negative comments in your head, mentally tell yourself to stop.

F. Before you go to bed every night list three things in your day that really made you happy.

G. He or she may be able to help you come up with some good ideas for finding your self-esteem.

【题目】While we all try to find happiness, sometimes we still end up feeling low. While most people can control this feeling, low moods can stay with some, leading to depression. About 322 million people suffered from depression in 2015, according to a report by the World Health Organization in February. This is more than 4 percent of the world’s population.

Depression is described by the WHO as a mental disorder. It has several symptoms including sadness, loss of interest and feelings of low self-worth. In severe cases, depression may even lead to suicide.

The number of people living with depression is increasing. The WHO reported a rise of 18.4 percent between 2005 and 2015. Young people are a group known to suffer with depression. “The pressures on today’s youth are like no other generation, perhaps,” Dan Chisholm, an official of WHO, told Reuters.

In China, depression among young people is on the rise, Zhu Zhuohong, a psychology professor with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told Xinhua News Agency. Competition to outperform others, especially in education, can cause a lot of pressure for Chinese youth.

Almost 1.2 million Chinese people aged 15 to 24 suffer from depression, according to a report released by British science journal The Lancet in May.

Luckily, more and more efforts are being made to deal with this problem. This year’s World Health Day, held on April 7, will focus on depression. The day will highlight (强调) the “Depression: let’s talk” campaign. The campaign aims to make sure that people with depression both seek and get help.

【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
It is said that farmers or peasants, especially those in developing countries, are often criticized for cutting down forests. But a new study suggests that many farmers recognize the value of keeping trees.
Researchers using satellite images found at least ten percent trees cover on more than one billion hectares of farmland. Earlier estimates were much lower but incomplete. The authors of the new study say it may still underestimate the true extent worldwide.
The study found the most trees cover in South America. North Africa and West Asia have the least.
The study found that climate conditions alone could not explain the amount of trees cover in different areas.There are areas with few trees but also few people, and areas with many trees and many people. The findings suggest that things like land rights, markets or government policies can influence tree planting and protection.
Dennis Garrity heads the World Agroforestry Center.The problem, he says, is that policy makers and planners have been slow to recognize this and to support such efforts.
The satellite images may not show what the farmers are using the trees for, but trees provide nuts, fruit, wood and other products.Even under drought (干旱) conditions, trees can often provide food and a way to earn money until the next growing season.
Some trees act as natural fertilizers. They take nitrogen (氮气) out of the air and put it in the soil. Scientists at the Center say the use of fertilizer trees can reduce the need for chemical nitrogen by up to three-fourths. Trees also capture carbon dioxide, a gas linked to climate change.
A. Nor could the size of nearby populations, meaning people and trees can live together.
B. He says farmers are acting on their own to protect and plant trees.
C. Almost all of it is covered by trees.
D. They also help prevent soil loss and protect water supplies.
E. He devotes most of his time to making people realize its importance.
F. That is nearly half of the farmland in the world.
G. Next comes Africa south of the Sahara, followed by Southeast Asia.

E-reading and e-books are slowly conquering the world. Compared to traditional paper books, e-books in some schools and universities attract more interest because the information flow seems much easier to manage and comes in a greatly higher quantity.
