I remember being so frustrated (沮丧的)when it came to school and doing my homework when I was in primary school. I would sit there and cry for hours because nothing made sense to me like it should have. It felt like no matter what I did, nothing came easy to me.
Finally, my teachers saw that there was something wrong. They saw my frustration and my inability to process what they were saying very clearly. They suggested giving me a test, and I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD). In simple terms, I just couldn't focus.
In the sixth grade I was put on medication (药物治疗) to combat the disorder, which completely transformed my life. I was also put into classes that suited my learning disabilities and made it easier for me to concentrate on learning for the first time. I was so happy to actually learn, and it was the most amazing feeling to learn something and actually understand it for the first time in my entire life.
My parents were in absolute shock of how much I had accomplished in just the first year of being treated. Seventh grade, I will never forget, because it was the first year that I had received straight As, had gotten High Honor Roll and had been able to understand what I was learning. Yeah, it was only seventh grade but, for me, it was one of my biggest accomplishments.
Later, I did better and better, and eventually I outgrew my Individualized Education Program(IEP) in the tenth grade. And by the eleventh I was mainstreamed into all normal classes, and held my weight the entire time. I was so determined to beat my own disabilities and I did everything I could not to let that be something that held me back. I worked hard, studied hard, and achieved what many aren't able to do.
If you're like me, please believe that you can achieve what I've achieved, too. You just need some professional help.

When A33, a theater in Beijing, hosted a new stand-up comedy show(脱口秀), to the surprise of the organizers, nearly 250 people turned up and laughed together. Six years ago, that would have been unbelievable. Indeed, there were even cases of shows having more performers than viewers.
Wan Da, one of the performers, said, “Many people are worried about the future of stand-up comedy, a genre (类型) that is very popular in the U.S. after its introduction in China. Can it adapt itself here But as the results show, there is no need to worry. We have survived and carried on some of the best American traditions.”
Programs such as Rock& Roast, a comedy talk show competition, which are thought to help people reduce their pressure, drive audiences to offline performances for a real laugh. “Generally, our audiences are in the 20-35 age group, but recently some older people are reported to go to the theatre,” said Song Qiyu, a performer and founder of Beijing Comedy Center.
Compared to traditional Chinese comedy performances, the stand-up comedy has a lower bar as it doesn't require years of professional training. This allows everyone to take part. Work experience and personal observations of life are the sources of their inspiration. Different lives and jobs make the performances varied, giving them unique individual colors.
Joe Wong, a humorist from Jilin province, whose performance in Washington, D.C. in 2010 attracted much attention across China's social media, is happy to see the development of the industry in China. However, he has a warning, too: There is huge space for the genre in China, but we should be careful of growing too fast as the market still needs good works.
In China, many fresh college graduates join. Through their efforts, the industry will improve its standards and popularity as well as influence.
28. What can we learn about the stand-up comedy from Paragraph 2
A. It develops well in China. B. It is created by Americans.
C. It faces an uncertain future. D. It is very popular in Beijing.
29. Why can everyone join the stand-up comedy industry
A. They have a gift for talking. B. It needs plenty of performers.
C. It needs no special backgrounds. D. Most people have a sense of humor.
30. What is Joe Wong's suggestion for the stand-up comedy
A. Learning from America. B. Offering quality content.
C. Keeping creating works. D. Employing fresh graduates.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. The stand-up comedy: a rising industry B. A33: a quickly growing comedy theatre
C. Why does the stand-up comedy get popular D. How does the stand-up comedy survive in China
D
Recently the term “climate anxiety” has been used to better describe our growing concerns about climate change. While there is evidence that climate anxiety can be identified and reliably measured, what’s less clear is how it relates to mental illness. Mental health providers across the world are noting the presence of climate anxiety in their patients; however, the degree to which it is influencing mental illness is not yet clear, though evidence addressing this question is slowly growing.
For years now, mental health clinicians (临床医生) have seen climate anxiety influencing presentations of mental illness in a variety of ways, some extreme. Recent studies are starting to look at links between climate anxiety and mental illness in larger samples to help better understand the directionality of their relationship. In a U.S. survey of more than 340 people published in 2018, climate concerns were associated with depressive symptoms. Ecological coping, which includes pro-environmental behaviors such as reducing energy consumption, appeared to be protective against depression, indicating that climate concerns and the poor coping skills used to address them could be causing depressive symptoms.
So who might be more at risk of mental illness secondary to the uncertainties around climate change Unsurprisingly, climate anxiety appears higher in individuals with more concern about environmental issues at baseline and those already experiencing direct effects of climate change. Climatologists also face increased risk given their in-depth knowledge on the issue coupled with the upsetting task of trying to convey it to individuals and governments that often deny or downplay it. People with high levels of neuroticism, a personality trait that increases susceptibility (敏感性) to mental illness, are also likely to be at high risk.
Some individuals report adaptive responses to climate anxiety like adopting pro-environmental behaviors and participating in collective action, while others are unable to respond behaviorally at all. It’s not yet clear how these varying reactions manifest (呈现) on a population level and how they’re influencing humanity’s response to climate change. However, a recent survey of nearly 200 people found that, while climate anxiety was associated with an emotional response to climate change, it was not correlated with a behavioral response.
If this is true for humanity as a whole, we must urgently help motivate the anxious among us. Doing so successfully will require many approaches, such as delivering cognitive-behavioral therapy (认知行为疗法) to the most severely affected and demonstrating to entire populations that change is possible by better publicizing productive efforts by organizations to reduce their carbon footprints. We can’t let climate anxiety stop us from responding to climate change, because now, more than ever, we need action, not inaction.
32. What can be learned from the first two paragraphs
A. Mental illness may increase the risk of climate anxiety.
B. Reducing energy consumption can help treat depression.
C. The influence of climate anxiety on mental illness can be measured.
D. Failure to handle climate anxiety may cause depressive symptoms.
33. The underlined phrase “secondary to” in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.
A. regardless of B. less important than
C. as serious as D. as a result of
34. Which of the following might be effective in helping the anxious overcome climate anxiety
A. Publicizing the latest research on climate anxiety.
B. Funding studies into cognitive-behavioral therapies.
C. Informing the public of practical ways to live a greener life.
D. Delivering speeches to anxious people on a regular basis.
35. What is the purpose of this passage
A. To demand care for those experiencing climate anxiety.
B. To show new findings about climate anxiety.
C. To compare climate anxiety and mental illness.
D. To reveal consequences of climate anxiety.
