听力原文： My child seems sad; is he suffering from depression？ Not necessarily! Normal sad

ness or grieving is not depression. Don't worry if your child occasionally feels blue or down in the dumps. 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 [32] if his melancholy (忧郁症状) 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. [33] 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 [34] irritability(易怒). Children may be depressed if [34] 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, [34] 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: [35] Is this behavior. new？ Is it long-lasting (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.

听力原文：In my childhood home, dinner was enjoyed with hushed voices, and the topics open

听力原文： In my childhood home, dinner was enjoyed with hushed voices, and the topics open for discussion were very much restricted. We were not allowed to bring up anything that was potentially unappetizing; body functions, bugs, murder and mayhem in general were all strictly forbidden topics. If I had to leave the table to use the toilet, I had to verbally excuse myself without mentioning what it was that I was going to do. "May I be excused, please？ I need to wash my hands." I would say. My mother would say, "Sure." My father would often play a joke on us by saying, "Your hands don't look dirty to me!"

As for eating, we did it quietly. No eating noises were allowed. Everything must be done as quietly as possible. Therefore, we had to eat with our mouths closed. To make a "smacking" noise was, perhaps, the worst offense possible. While drinking soup or coffee or wine "slurping" was also forbidden. If any sound whatever was created by our intake of food or beverage, it constituted bad manners! With that in mind, it was, of course, unthinkable to speak with one's mouth full of food, so speaking only occurred before or after one had taken in food and swallowed it.

How one sits at the table is also prescribed. One is to sit up straight with the recessive hand in one's lap holding a napkin while the dominant hand holds the fork or spoon. The only time one is allowed to have both hands on the table is when one is using a knife to cut something, but as soon as the cutting is done, the recessive hand goes back to the lap. Also, elbows are not allowed on the table. Therefore, one props the arm against the edge of the table just below the elbow. One should never reach for any food on the table; one should ask someone sitting near it to give it to you. "Would you please pass the potatoes？ .... May I trouble you for the salt？" These are phrases that you are likely to hear on any given night of the week at a family dinner.

Which of the following seems an unlikely topic over dinner？

A．The weather is going to be stormy.

B．A child was abused to death by his stepfather.

C．Oscar ceremony.

D．Family reunion at Christmas.
