experts say yes. having a good weep at the weekend is becoming more popular among office workers in china.“ i need to cry to let my feelings out,” said 22-year-old guo meng, a smart-looking young woman. “i remember one day when i got home i felt so down but had no one to talk to, so i just curled up（蜷缩）with my teddy bear and cried myself to sleep,” guo said. the next day, she said, she felt much better and life seemed not so bad after all.because crying is taken as a sign of weakness, people make a great show of being strong and not displaying emotion. psychologists and medical practitioners agree that crying is beneficial for mental health but people still regard it as a sign of failure and bottle up their feelings. a famous chines author once said to cry is normal, and even brave. those who display their emotions can deal with their troubles bravely after the tears dry, while those who soldier on let problems fester.in the chaoyang district of beijing, there is a special place for people to cry their sadness out. it is called “cry bar”. on the door of each of its “cry rooms” there is a saying encouraging people to let the tears flow freely.“crying is a kind of therapy, but it needs some direction,” said milulu, a psychologist.“people should realize the point of crying is to relieve pressure, but some of the young people who come to the cry bar simply sit and weep. the purpose of crying is to make it easier to improve your life after the tears dry, not to get lost in bad memories.”crying is only one way of relieving pressure, and we need to face problems squarely（正面的）and solve them once the tears have dried, said milulu.56. crying _ made guo meng feel better.a. with some friendb. all the night with a toyc. during her sleepd. in bed before sleep57. according to the 3rd paragraph, people usually make great efforts to _.a. get rid if their sadnessb. bottle up their feelingsc. act on psychologists adviced. face their troubles bravely58. what should the customers do at the cry bar?a. think of every sad experience theyve had and cry.b. keep crying as loudly and long as possible.c. satisfy any desire to cry or weep until it is gone.d. hold back their tears until they cant help but cry.59. from the text, we can learn that crying _.a. is the only way to relieve pressureb. must help to solve problemsc. means facing problems squarelyd. cant weaken sad feelings bwhile the factors driving the modern family are many and complexfrom the explosion of technology to the influx（涌入）of mothers into the workforceparental fear may be at the heart of todays rushed（匆忙地） approach to childrearing（养育孩子）, some experts say.parents fear everything from media exposure to violence to peer pressure, says alan mirabelli, executive director of ottawa think tank. perhaps most of all, theres the fear that their kids wont be equipped to compete in the future.some might argue that todays parents are micromanagers because, unlike those who raised families during the depression and world war, they dont have enough real worries. but mirabelli says it comes down to a different context and a different set of challenges.he notes that while parents 25 or 30 years ago had the modest goals of providing their offspring with more than they had, the current driving force is the desperation to equip kids for a dog-eat-dog world.they demand tougher schools, a heftier（容量更大的）curriculum and standardized testing to measure performance. outside the school system, they fill in the gaps with tutoring, music lessons, art classes, gymnastics and hockey. for those who cant afford it, theres the additional stress and fear that their kids dont stand a chance.david elkind, a renowned child psychologist and author of the hurried child, says hyper-parenting is a reaction to a world changing so fast and we have no idea how to prepare kids for it. parents cant envision the society their kids will inhabit as adults, so they try to cover all the possibilities, cramming in as much as possible and operating on the principle that earlier is better. “ this works against the notion of let children be children ,” said david elkind.60.the biggest fear of parents is that their children _.a. will change for the worse because of media influenceb. will get involved in violencec. will fall behind in future competitiond. will compare themselves with peers 61. david elkind holds the view that _.a. parents should equip their kids for a changing worldb. parents shouldnt worry too much about their childrenc. parents shouldnt destroy the childhood of their childrend. its better for parents to foresee the future society62. we can conclude from the text that _.a. children today cant enjoy a real childhoodb. children today are better equipped for the futurec. parents today actually have no real worriesd. parents today face more challenges actually63. the underline word “it” in the fifth paragraph probably refers to _.a. the tough education b. a good environmentc. a colorful after-school activity d. a rich and happy lifecspring is the time to go out and enjoy the weather and scenery. here are some events to attend in march of

not really true. words have the power to build us up or tear us down. it doesnt matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.we all talk to ourselves sometimes. were usually too embarrassed to admit it, though. in fact, we really shouldnt be, because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.this “ self-talk” helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. be aware, though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. so in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of encouragement to ourselves. we should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. the next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “ good job!”often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effects they will have. but we should be aware that our words cause certain responses to others. for example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. and the clerk will probably respond in a similar manner. or harsh（刻薄的）and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive.words possess power because of their lasting effect. many of us regret something we once said. and we remember unkind words said to us! before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: is it true? is it loving? is it needed? if what we want to say doesnt pass this test, then its better left unsaid.words possess power: both positive and negative. those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. we can offer hope, build self-esteem and motivate others to do their best. negative words destroy all those things. will we use our words to hurt or to heal? the choice i
