I found it hard to communicate with my mother. Relations between us became difficult.
One day I ran away from home and stayed outside for a few hours. When I returned home at night, I saw all the pain, anger and disappointment on my mother’s face. We knew that we were in great need of talk. We agreed to have breakfast together the next morning. In the end, we decided to go to a restaurant.
On our way to the restaurant, I noticed my mother had two notebooks in her hands. I asked her what they were used for. She explained to me that sometimes it was easier to write our own feelings than talking about them. We should write down our feelings.
Our first topic was “Why am I so angry ” I wrote a half page, and my mom filled up nearly three pages. I saw the tears run down her face while she was writing. I never realized anyone could hide so much anger. After we finished writing, we exchanged our notebooks. As soon as I started reading my mother’s words. I began to cry and so did she. When we finished reading, we discussed our feelings. Finally, it felt like all the anger inside me went away from my body. Our talk helped me realize so many things I had never thought of before, not only about my mother but also about other people.
My mother and I continue using our notebooks as a way of communicating. We know that no matter how we feel about each other, our notebooks are a safe place to express our feelings. We have come to an agreement that we write “I love you” at the end of each other.

Many of our conversations are gossip(闲话).I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people; it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction; and it can cause social pressure in a group.
An important negative(负面的）effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic that a person prefers to keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.
If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it The answer lies in another effect of gossip. Sharing the latest rumor (传言) can make a person feel important because he or she knows something that others don't. Similarly, hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group”. In other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority (优越感).
Gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten, unspoken rules about how people should act. For example, if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can be sure that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention. The dos and don'ts carried through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.
Next time you feel the urge (冲动) to spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your “juicy story” might have.
16.Which of the following is one of the effects of gossip
A. It leads to cruel lies. B. It may do harm to people.
C. It stays on a certain topic. D. It spreads the latest information.
17. What does the underlined phrase “a sense of belonging” probably mean
A.成就感 B.愧疚感 C.羞耻感 D.归属感
18. What can we learn from Paragraph 4
A. Gossip can provide people with written rules.
B. Gossip can help people deal with negative attention.
C. Gossip can remind people to watch their own behaviours.
D.Gossip can force schools to improve student handbooks.
19. How is the passage organized
20. What is the best title for the passage .
A. Stay away from gossipers. B. Don't let gossip turn into lies.
C.Think twice before you gossip. D. Never share your secrets with others.
C
March 30th is the World Bipolar Day. Liu Tiebang, president of Shenzhen Kangning Hospital,introduced bipolar disorder (BD) to the public in an effort to raise awareness for the mental health illness.
Bipolar disorder, also called manic depression (躁郁), is a mood disorder which can cause a patient's mood to change from a very high to a very low. Manic symptoms (症状) can include increased energy, quick response, unusual talkativeness, a lack of need for sleep, high self-esteem and so on. Depressive symptoms can include less energy, loss of interest or pleasure, feeling worthless, low self-esteem and suicidal(自杀性的) thoughts.
Patients with BD are often misdiagnosed (误诊） as depression. Liu said that while someone is experiencing a manic stage, he or she may be unusually talkative, sociable and outgoing. Patients having these kinds of problems may not realize that they are ill and often do not look for medical care. On the other hand, patients experiencing depressive periods are more likely to be noticed.
“With the development of treatments and medications, the treatments for BD have become better at present,” said Liu. “The medications are safer. Patients getting the right treatments at the earlier stage of BD have a higher possibility of recovery (恢复); or the mania and depression may happen again.”
For patients with BD, in addition to medication, other methods such as physical treatments, psychological treatments, social support groups and crisis intervention may be useful for managing their symptoms and controlling mood changes.
21.Why did Liu Tiebang introduce bipolar disorder to the public
A.To warn people not to get close to patients with BD.
B.To advise people to have mental health check more often.
C.To remind people to pay more attention to mental health illness.
D.To make people know more about Shenzhen Kangning Hospital.
22. What kind of patients may not no ice their own illness
A.Patients who feel worthless. B. Patients who have low self-esteem.
C. Patients who lose interest or pleasure. D. Patients who are unusually talkative.
23. What may happen if patients are not treated correctly at the earlier stage of BD
A. They may never recover. B.They may suffer again.
C.They may need better medications. D.They may lose control of themselves.
24.How many methods are mentioned in the passage to help patients with BD
A.Two. B.Three. C.Four. D.Five.
25.What can we infer(推断）from the passage
A.Manic symptoms are quite different from depressive ones.
B. Patients with BD don't actually experience mood changes.
C. It is easy to notice a patient who is experiencing a manic stage.
D.Shenzhen Kangning Hospital is the best hospital to treat patients with BD.
