听力原文: My child seems sad. Is he suffering from depression? Not necessarily: Normal sadness or grieving is not depression. Don't worry if your child occasionally feels blue or down. Life has its ups and downs, and it's normal for children to grieve over a loss or feel sad for a few hours or days at a time. But if his melancholy lasts for more than a couple of weeks or seems to interfere with his regular activities and relationships, he may be clinically depressed. Depression is far more than a temporary change in mood; it's marked by a sense of hopelessness and a lack of energy and enthusiasm that can last for weeks, months, or (in rare cases) even years at a time. The good news about depression is that it's almost always treatable. The key is identifying the problem and getting help. What are the symptoms?
It might seem logical that the most obvious symptom of depression would be sadness, but many depressed children say they don't feel sad or gloomy. Interestingly, one of the key signs of depression in children is irritability. Children may be depressed if they have trouble getting along with other kids and family members or have dramatic swings in mood. Other signs of depression include lack of energy, inability to concentrate, poor performance in school, a sense of hopelessness and helplessness, and frequent complaints about physical ailments like headaches or stomachaches.
If your child exhibits any symptoms of depression, ask yourself three questions: Is this behaviour new? Is it long-lasting or going on for several weeks or more? Are the symptoms interfering with his ability to function at home, in school, or with his friends? If you answer "yes" to any of those questions, you should probably have your child evaluated by a child or adolescent psychologist, psychiatrist, or other licensed mental health professional trained to work with children and adolescents.

The media like any big business venture today is an extremely competitive world of its own. In providing material for its public it has constantly to make sure it serves the right diet. No public will waste time on your paper or your TV channel otherwise. The sad truth is that there seems only one way to catch an audience—hit them right between the eyes. What started as a mild tap has now become a sledgehammer blow that goes by the name of sensationalism.
A reporter chooses—has to choose—a news story because of its sensation value. The young inexperienced cub reporter rings his editor about a car crash. He starts to explain the details to him but the experienced editor asks the cub one question: "Anyone killed?" and to himself he thinks, why do we offer jobs to children?
One may accuse newsman of cynicism but they will quickly remind you of the hard facts of survival in the world of the media. The favorite words the newspaper placards in the streets bombard the public with are, "Surprise, Sensation, Drama, Shock". You wonder, when the papers batter the public with dramas and sensations day after day, that they haven't put an end to sensation long ago. As a regular newspaper reader you also thank Heavens for the light relief of the strips. Turn finally from them to what is referred to laughingly as "steam radio", in order to show its relative antiquity. This for many millions of people is the only live contact they have with the outside world that tightly or wrongly they have been led to believe they should have contact with. It's extremely hard of course to see why, when for the most part its news services bring them tragedy, disaster, heartbreak, other people's misfortunes—in a word, trouble. What again becomes quickly apparent is that a man's job depends on sensationalism, and we are asked to excuse him for this.
Perhaps the media hasn't quite grown up and we should congratulate it on getting this far. The year 2000 may see great changes in the way news is presented to us. Again, who knows, it might even get worse—if such a thing is possible. Perish the thought!
According to the passage which is most important?
A.The media's purpose.
B.The news itself.
C.What is thought of as news.
D.The gathering of news.
第8题
A.displayed herself
B.delayed herself

第二节 短文理解1
阅读下面短文,从[A](Right)、[B](Wrong)、[C](Doesn't Say)三个判断中选择一个正确选项。
Jo was the most popular boy in the school. He was tall and strong, with dark brown haft and green eyes and the sweetest smile. He was good at all sports and he was top of his class.
There was keen competition among the girls to attract his attention. Yet, Jo was nice to all of them, even the plain, shy ones but he didn't have a steady girlfriend.
Ella was the only one who didn't seem to have any romantic interest in him; she treated him friendly and the others didn't consider her as rival. But she knew him very well. Jo and Ella were the best friends. They talked about their problems, exchanged ideas, gave advice to each other and played jokes on each other occasionally.
One day, Jo didn't go to school. He stayed away for a week, then the news came: his mother had died.
When he went back to school, he looked fired and sad, like someone who walks without knowing where he's going. No one knew what to say to him. The easy smile and superficial chat couldn't reach him any more. When he met Ella, they didn't say much. There was no need to. She simply shook hands with him, then hugged him briefly and asked him to go and see her in the afternoon.
It all started right then.
Jo was the best student in class.
A.Right.
B.Wrong.
C.Doesn't say.
