24、Mr. Ma, a famous mental (心理的) doctor from Beijing once said at an important meeting, “Now many young students can have many problems with their minds. Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people around them like their parents and classmates. Parents and teachers should care more about this problem.”
Then Mr. Ma gave some examples. One patient, a middle school student from Xi’an was doing badly in his lessons. He thought his teachers and friends often laughed at him, and he became so nervous and worried that one night he left his home without telling parents. Another student, a 14-year-old schoolgirl from Shanghai, was very afraid of exams. While she was reading the exam paper, she couldn’t think of anything to write.
A recent report from Jie fang Daily says about 18% of the young students in Shanghai have mental problems. They often feel worried and very unhappy. Unluckily, many of them won’t go and ask for help. Some think they will look stupid if they go to see a doctor. Others won’t talk about their own secrets (秘密).
At the end of the meeting, Mr. Ma offered some good ideas to young people:
◆Talk to your parents or teachers often.
◆Take part in group activities.

C.When she talked with her parents.

【3】Why won’t students with mental problems ask for help?
A.Because they don’t want to talk about their secrets with others.
B.Because their parents are too busy to look after them.

25、Some people love going to museums,while others absolutely hate it and would rather stay at home,enjoying their favorite TV shows.Increasingly,museums are being seen as outdated and boring by today's youngsters.I have just returned to the UK after travelling around the USA. While there,I visited lots of museums I must say,museums are typically educational, either to develop knowledge gained at school in particular subjects,or to enhance knowledge of other cultures
In Chicago,we visited the world-famous Art Institute of Chicago.It was filled with paintings,drawings and sculptures by a huge variety of artists,such as Picasso,Monet,Matisse and Dali.
There was a mixture of traditional and modern art,including colorful stained glass windows and abstract art.
When we were in Washington D. C. ,we visited a few of the Smithsonian museums.These are all free to visit-which is great if you just want to see a few things,and not spend all day inside.
The Air and Space Museum was particularly good:it had lots of aircrafts and rockets on display,interesting information and also some interactive parts.We also went to the National U.S.Holocaust(纳粹大屠杀)Memorial Museum.Naturally,it was sad to read about the horrors of this tragedy which affected so many people in World War II.However,it was also incredibly interesting to read the stories of those who survived the Holocaust,as well as those who helped others.
Last but not least,I also found the 9/11 Memorial and Museum to be of great interest.This museum is dedicated to those who lost their lives,as well as their families,when the Twin Towers in New York City were attacked by terrorists in 2001It tells you how the terrorists planned the attack,how they hijacked the planes,and ultimately what happened as a result of their actions.Surviving pieces of the towers are shown in the museum,alongside damaged fire engines.It was a truly thought-provoking visit,which made me value my own life that little bit more.
I think museums play an important role in preserving artifacts of historical importance for future generations.Whatever your interests,there is likely to be a museum for you.You can visit waxwork museums to see models of your favorite celebrities(and get photos with the Queen!),science museums for a more hands-on,interactive visit and so much more!Best of all,if you're ever in the UK,many of them are free!

27、A teacher had been very annoyed by some of the boys whistling during school hours. At last he knew he would have to punish anyone who repeated the offence(过错).
The next morning, when the room was quiet, a loud whistle was heard! The students were surprised, and the teacher at once looked around to discover the offender.
The blame(指责)fell on a bad boy who was often in trouble, he strongly denied(否认)whistling. However, his words were not believed, for he was not a truthful boy. The teacher brought him up to be punished.
Seeing what was about to happen, a thin little boy, about nine years old, who had been anxiously watching the event, rose from his seat.
“Do not punish John, sir,” he said to the teacher, “It was I who whistled. I was doing a long hard sum, and when I rubbed out another sum to make room for it, I rubbed out the difficult one by mistake. I spoiled it all, and before I knew what I had done, I had whistled out loud! I am very sorry, I did not mean to whistle, I cannot let John be punished for my fault.” He held out his hand to be punished!
Taking his hand , the teacher said, “Charles, you have done the right thing. You were honest and spoke the truth. I believe that you did not intend to whistle. I cannot punish you, after being so honest. “ Charles returned to his seat with a flushed face, and even the youngest child in the school felt proud of him. Every student could see how bravely he had acted.
Charles was truly a brave boy. He had done that which he knew to be right, even though the same time he might have been punished for it.
True courage may also be shown by refusing to do that which we know is wrong, thought may get into trouble or other children may laugh at us.
