Even more startling, 6.2 percent of college students surveyed in 2012 considered suicide and 1.3 percent attempted it, according to an American College Health Association study released this spring. If youre feeling depressed on campus, you may find the following tips helpful.ExerciseExercise: Physical activity releases endorphins chemicals that produce 5an overall positive feeling within the body, which fight depression naturally. Mental health experts claim that exercise is a solution to those feeling mild or moderate depression. However, for those severely depressed, simply doing sports is not enough.UseUse schoolschool counselingcounseling servicesservices: Campuses dont employ mental health experts simply to throw thousands of dollars down the drain. Their job is to help students, so experts recommend you use them. Most students, however, are hesitant to take a trip to their colleges counseling center, fearing being laughed at by peers. As a result, some schools like Texas Christian University, are testing students for mental health problems when they get sick and visit the campus health clinic.TakeTake advantageadvantage ofof technologytechnology: Staying in touch with family members and friends from childhood and high school has become easier than ever with the coming of Facebook and video chat services like Skype.

From the 16th century the British had contact (接触) with many people from around the world. This meant that lots of new vocabulary entered the language. The invention of printing also meant that there was now a common language in print. Books became cheaper and more people learned to read. Spelling and grammar became fixed, and the dialect of London became the standard. In 1604 the first English dictionary came out. Early Modern English and Late Modern English are mostly different in the number of words. Late Modern English has many more words, mainly because of the following two reasons: First, the Industrial Revolution (工业革命) led to the need for new words. Second, the British Empire covered one quarter of the earths surface, and the English language took in foreign words from many countries. From around 1600, the English colonization (殖民地化) of North America led to American English. Some English pronunciations and words “froze” when they reached America. In some ways, American English is more like the English of 7Shakespeare than modern British English. Some expressions that are called “American English” are in fact from British expressions. They were kept in the colonies while lost for a time in Britain. Spanish also had an influence (影响) on American English. For example, words like canyon, ranch, stampede and vigilante are from Spanish. They entered English by the people of Spain who settled in the American West. French words and West African words also influenced American English.Today, American English has a greater influence, because of the USAs movies, television, popular music, trade and technology. 29. The main difference between Early and Late Modern English lies in _.A. vocabulary B. pronunciation C. spelling D. grammar30. From the passage, we can learn the word “canyon” is from _.A.

It is my mum that makes everyone happy and calm in our family while daddy only works day and night,never looking us in the face. But mum makes a wrong doing list of us for daddy scolding us. She's a spy! Once, I stole a candy. Daddy asked me to put it back and told the shopkeeper that I stole the candy and told her that I would like to carry loads for her. Well,mum told him I was just a child.I broke my leg on the playground. It's still mum that held me tightly in her warm arms. Daddy drove us right to emergency room.

While looking over our album,friends always ask,“ What does your father look?” God knows. He photos others all the time. So there are many and many photos of my mum and me,pretty and lovely photos.And I still remembered the day when daddy taught me riding. I asked him not to let his hands away,but he did the opposite. And I certainly fell onto the ground. And bad daddy waved my lovely mum away. I got angry and decided to show him. I got on the bike and rode. But he smiled again.Mum wrote every letter to me while I was in college. He,except checks, did write a letter, but extremely short, just a few words,saying, “Without your playing on the lawn, my son,my lawn grows prettier than before.”Every time I phoned, it seemed he wanted to talk, but he would say,“I will get your mum.”On the day of my wedding, mum cried as if we would never meet again,while Dad went out with a nasal sound.From very young, I heard him saying, “Where have you been?”“When do you go home?”“Did you get oil for your car?”“No, I don't agree.” Dad really knows nothing about showing love. Unless.Maybe he showed while I didn't notice,is it?33Why did the father get angry when he sent the writer to the hospital?ABecause he parked his car at a wrong place.BBecause the parking space of the ambulance was very crowded.CBecause the writer's injury made the father quite upset.DBecause the person paid little attention to his son's serious injury.34According to Paragraph 5,we know the father_.Awas not patient when he taught the writer ridingBmight want to see his child fall off the bike9Cused a wrong way of teaching his child ridingDmight want his son to learn riding through independent practice35Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?AThe dad posted checks to the writer while he was in college.BThe dad had no single photo of his own in the album.CThe dad scolded the writer for having damaged the lawn.DThe dad got excited when participating in the writer's wedding.第二节第二节 ( (共共 5 5 小题;每小题小题;每小题 2 2 分,满分分,满分 1010 分分) )根据短文内容,从短文后的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根据短文内容,从短文后的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。项。Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life.
