Focus on mental health
At some point in life, many people suffer a mental disturbance. While most people get over it, for others it
doesn’t go away easily.
Oct 10 was World Mental Health Day. This year, the theme was “Young People and Mental Health in a Changing
World”.
The World Health Organization says that about 20 percent of children and teenagers worldwide suffer from
mental illness. It’s thought that the number of children and teenagers with mental illness around the world will
increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main causes of diseases, disabilities and even death.
In China, the picture isn’t bright, either. About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17,or 10 percent of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily.
The reason for mental problems among young people may be the increasing pressure in life.
The world is changing fast. Study and relationships have always caused stress, but today the stress is much
higher than before, the WHO said.
The Young Foundation, a UK-based non-profit think tank, says that young people today have huge stresses at
school. For instance, they experience bullying and body image issues. In a 2017 report, the foundation noted that
the internet was a special source of stress. Online, young people often see “messages about perfection” and this
causes the young “great uncertainty about their adult futures”, says the foundation.
Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don’t seek help with their mental problems. They fear that
others will think less of them if they admit that they are in trouble. Elaine Peng, a US mental health educator, makes a
similar point. She thinks that many Chinese people are ashamed of their mental problems. Peng told Xinhua that
mental illness “is taboo in many Chinese families”.
In the UK, over three-quarters of young people believe their mental health problems have a social stigma.
YouGov, a UK-based data company, reported in 2017 that a quarter of young UK people wouldn’t ask for help if
they developed a mental problem.
Young people who don’t seek help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future.
Jagannath Lamichhane, a mental health expert in Nepal, warned that, “If we hide our mental health, it may remain
a problem forever.”
“My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—seek help,” he told NPR.

If only I had followed Mom’s advice
The major theme of my summer this year has been “going back home”. I went back to China as soon as school
was over, at the end of June. I returned to Canada on August 17.
Going back to China this summer was not easy, because of the A (H1N1) flu. Everybody seemed to be terrified.
The easiest thing to do was to wear masks on the plane, as my mom suggested. However, it was difficult to wear a
mask for 10 hours. The idea was more horrifying than catching the flu! In the end I decided I’d take the masks onto
the plane, but not wear them.
Everything seemed okay during the flight. I saw only five people were wearing masks all the time. “Comfort
is always the first thing,” I said to myself. When we arrived in Beijing some people came on the plane and took our
temperature. Fortunately, nobody had a fever. Therefore, I was able to get home on time.
Unluckily, everything went wrong after I got home. I became sick, with a sore throat and a fever. The horrible
image of the flu suddenly hovered in front of me, laughing at me, calling me an ill-behaved child because I had not
followed my mom’s words. Luckily, I just had a common cold; probably it was due to the stale air inside the plane
cabin. While I was sick in bed, I sighed sadly. If I had listened to my mom in the first place, I probably would have
never caught the cold.
It’s always wise to listen to your mom’s suggestions.
6．The author returned to ____ on August 17.
A．China B．Canada C．America D．England
7．What did the author’s mom suggest to him?

D．She suggested him taking off the masks on the plane.8．How many people were wearing masks all the time during the fight?
A．Only one. B．Only five.
C．Only six. D．All of the passengers.
9．Did the author catch the flu?
A．Yes, he caught the A(H1N1) flu.
B．No, he didn’t. He had a common cold.
C．No. He was healthy.
D．We don’t know.
10．Does the author regret not following his mom’s advice？
A．Yes, he does.
B．No, he doesn’t.
C．No. He followed his mom’s advice.
D．We don’t know.

Take good care of our teeth
When people take your picture, they say: “Say cheese! Smile!” So you do—you open your mouth and show
your teeth. Healthy teeth help you to look your best. Do you know how to take care of them?
Brush your teeth
Long ago, when people got older, their teeth would rot away. Rotting teeth give people toothache. To avoid a
toothache, people pulled the bad tooth out. Finally they learned that cleaning their teeth was important. But they
didn’t have toothpaste then. They tried things such as chalk and lemon juice.
About 100 years ago, someone finally made a paste to clean teeth. Not long after that, someone invented the
toothpaste tube. That way people could put the paste right onto the toothbrush.
Tooth brushing became popular during World War II. The US Army gave brushes and toothpaste to all soldiers.
They learned to brush twice a day.
Today there are all kinds of toothpastes. Toothpastes come in different colors and flavors. When you choose
your toothpaste, make sure it has fluoride. Fluoride makes your teeth strong.
Use floss
Sometimes your teeth need deeper cleaning than brushing. That is when floss is helpful. You pull it between
your teeth, and it reaches places where your toothbrush can’t go. Floss can pull out food that is between yourteeth.
11．Long ago, people________ to avoid a toothache.
A．had fake teeth B．brushed their teeth
C．pulled the bad tooth out D．used floss
12．What did ancient people use to clean their teeth?
A．They used toothpaste. B．They used chalk or lemon juice.
C．They used floss. D．They used toothbrush.
13．When did tooth brushing become popular?
A．About 100 years ago. B．Before World War I.
C．During World War II. D．After World War II.
14．According to the passage, fluoride makes your teeth________.
A．rot away B．fragile C．old D．strong

A．brush B．chalk C．paste D．floss

Bitter cold
As the temperatures have dropped dramatically in recent weeks, you will hear more and more sneezing and
“bless you” afterwards. Everyone seems to be talking about this year’s flu season. A news report from the US made
the cold season sound even more horrible last week.
The US Food and Drug Administration is considering banning the sale of over-the-counter cough and cold
medicines for young children because of its weak treatment and unsafe side effects.
What should you do if the doctors are still arguing about what to write on the prescription? If you do get sick,
knowing what to do can help you feel better faster.How can you prevent getting a common cold?
★Practice preventative measures: wash your hands, and keep your fingers away from your eyes and nose.
★Avoid close contact with cold sufferers.
★Help your immune system: get plenty of rest, drink lots of water, eat well-balanced meals, sleep for 7-8 hours
per night and take regular exercise.
Try these tips if you get the flu:
★Drink lots of fluids.
★Get lots of sleep and take it easy. This is a great time to chill with your favorite DVDs without your mom or
dad asking you to help out around the house!
★Take painkillers to relieve fever and aches. Over-the-counter cold or cough medicines may also relieve some
flu symptoms. Avoid taking aspirin, though, unless your doctor says it’s OK. Aspirin can put teens at greater risk of
developing another serious illness that sometimes follows infection with the flu virus.
★Wear layers. You might be cold one minute and hot the next, and wearing several layers—like a T-shirt,
sweatshirt and robe—makes it easy to add or remove clothes as needed.
★Wash your hands frequently. You don’t want to spread the flu to everyone else, if you can help it. Also, avoid
sharing cups and eating utensils with other people.
★ Get the flu vaccine in advance. Flu vaccines are available commonly as a shot. The shot contains killed flu
viruses that won’t cause people to get the flu, but will cause the body to make antibodies to fight off infection by
the live flu virus. Getting a shot of the killed virus causes your body to be protected against the particular type of
live flu virus that’s in the vaccine.
The flu shot is about 80 percent effective against the flu, which means that a few people who get the shot will
still possible to get the flu. In addition, the shot only contains certain strains of the virus.
41．What kind of medicines have unsafe side effects?
42．What can we do to help your immune system?
43．Why should we avoid taking aspirin?
44．What should we do if we don’t want to spread the flu to others?
45．What can killed flu viruses do?
