21、Bullied(受欺凌的) kids face a high risk of mental health problems as teens and as young adults. Indeed, kids troubled by bullying may be worse off than those who had suffered physical abuse(虐待) or neglect, as the study found.
Until recently, most studies of child victims focused not on bullying but on maltreatment(虐待), Dieter Wolke says. Maltreatment includes physical or emotional abuse, neglect or other behaviors that can harm a child.
Wolke’s team wanted to better understand bullying’s long-term effects compared to those due to maltreatment. They focused on 4,026 children in the United Kingdom and 1,420 more in the United States. Information about bullying and maltreatment was collected for American children to age 13. They collected the same information for British youth up to age 16. The researchers also gathered data on each individuals’ mental health as a young adult.
Among the Americans, 36 percent of bullied kids had mental problems later. Those problems included anxiety, which is a state of excessive worry. They also included depression. That is a feeling of hopelessness that can last a long time. Among kids who had been maltreated by adults, 17 percent later suffered mental health problems. That was less than half the rate seen in people who had been bullied as school kids.
In the U.K. group, the difference was less dramatic. Roughly 25 percent of the bullied kids reported mental health problems later, compared with about 17 percent who had been maltreated. But however you look at it, the findings are disturbing. And that’s why Wolke says schools,health services and other agencies must work together to end bullying.
Studies like this are important, says Corinna Jenkins Tucker. They bring attention to the lasting impacts of bullying. Tucker does, however, question the value of comparing bullying to other types of abuse. Such an approach can make it seem like one type of bad experience is worse than the other, she says. In fact, both types have short-term and long-term effects on health. She’d like to see researchers study the big picture. They should try to understand how all of these negative experiences together shape children—and sometimes harm them.
【1】It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A．researchers should pay less attention to maltreatment
B．more bullied kids have mental problems in the USA
C．a similar number of children are maltreated in America and Britain
D．either bullying or maltreatment has negative effects on children’s health

23、How to Bring Our Community Together
Canada is a nation that prides itself on multi-culturalism and opportunity. 【1】 Building social connections and a sense of belonging brings people together in ways that strengthen individual relationships as well as whole communities.
There are several things that we can do to develop strong social connections and a sense of belonging:
【2】 One of the simplest ways to bring a community together is through shared experience. Events like an international food festival, a sports league featuring activities from around the world, and health and wellness programs drawing on different cultures, are excellent ways of bringing people together.
Think outside our box. 【3】 Many of us get caught up in our own routines and practices and forget that there are other ways of doing things. Try talking to different community members, ranging from youths to seniors, to understand their opinions of the world. 【4】
Try new things. Positively influencing our community can go beyond volunteering our time and resources. Consider getting involved in our community by working for the 2017 Census(人口) as an enumerator(普查员) or a crew leader. Census enumerators are responsible for identifying dwellings on maps, conducting personal interviews, and following up with respondents in person and by phone, while crew leaders are responsible for leading, training and supervising a team of enumerators. 【5】
A strong feeling of unity in a community can make residents feel comfortable and at home.
A．Plan community events.
B．Encourage community members to do some community service work.
C．Social connections offer community members chances to know each other better.
D．Our multi- cultural tradition provides a welcoming environment for individuals and families.
E．Learning about different cultures and practices can open our mind to a whole new way of life.
F．Invite individuals of different cultures to participate in community planning to ensure that every voice is heard.
G．These positions provide an opportunity to meet new people and build relationships with members of our community.
24、B
We all know what a brain is．A doctor will tell you that the brain is the organ of the body in the head．It controls our body's functions, movements, emotions and thoughts．But a brain can mean so much more．
A brain can also simply be a smart person, If a person is called brainy, she is smart and intelligent．If a family has many children but one of them is super smart, you could say, "She's the brains in the family．" And if you are the brains behind something you are responsible for developing or organizing something．For example, Bill Gates is the
brains behind Microsoft
Brain trust is a group of experts who give advice．Word experts say the phrase
"brain trust" became popular when Franklin D．Roosevelt first ran for president in
1932, Several professors gave him advice on social and political issues facing the U．S．
These professors were called his "brain trust．"
These ways we use the word "brain" all make sense．But other ways we use the
word are not so easy to understand．For example, to understand the next brain
expression, you first need to know the word “drain．" As a verb to drain means to,
remove something by letting it flow away．So a brain drain may sound like a disease
where the brain flows out the ears．But, brain drain is when a country's most educated people leave their countries to live in another．The brains are, sort of, draining out of the country．
However, if people are responsible for a great idea, you could say they brainstormed it．Here, brainstorm is not an act of weather．It is a process of thinking creatively about a complex topic．For example, business leaders may use brainstorming to create new
products, and government leaders may brainstorm to solve problems．
If people are brainwashed, it does not mean their brains are nice and clean．To brainwash means to make someone accept new beliefs by using repeated pressure in a forceful or tricky way．Keep in mind that brainwash is never used in a positive way．
【1】According to the text, if you're the CEO of Bai Du you can be called
A．the brains behind Bai Du
B．Bai Du's brain trust
C．the brain drain of Bai Du
D．the organ of Bai Du
【2】Why did Roosevelt successfully win the election?
A．Because he was smart at giving advice．
B．Because word experts were popular．
C．Because he got his brain trust．
D．Because he was the brains behind America．
【3】Which of the following expression is always used in a negative way?
A．Brain trust
B．Brain drain
C．Brainstorm
D．Brainwash
