let the sunshine in falling leaves, flowers, and cold winds. for many people late autumn can be a season of depression. those who suffer from “ the autumn blue” are often extremely tired, lack energy, need more sleep, feel increased appetite and gain weight. the exact cause of this condition, often called seasonal depression or seasonal affective disorder (sad), is not known yet, says chen jue, associate professor at shanghai mental health center. but recent studies indicate that weather change is influential and strongly suggest that this condition is caused by changes in the availability(得到) of sunlight.one theory is that with decreased exposure to sunlight, the biological clock that regulates mood, sleep, and hormones is delayed, running more slowly in winter. exposure to light may reset the biological clock. another theory is that brain chemicals that transmit information between nerves, called neurotransmitters (for example, serotonin), may be altered in individuals with sad. it is believed that exposure to light can correct these imbalances. it is a sad season, but you can try to make it happy. remember, spring always lives in your heart, chen says. “going outdoors to get some sunlight may reduce the tension that brings you the low spirits. relax at work. stretch, breathe deeply. take a tea break. think of your next vacation. color treatment also works in handling low mood. music also plays a role in treating autumn blues.”47. autumn blues is also called autumn_.a. depression b. sunshine c. blue music d. cold winds48. from the 3rd paragraph we know that there _ that can help to deal with autumn blues. a. is no biological clock b. is a real example c. is no possibility d. are some ways49. which of the following is true according to the text?a. the real cause for autumn blues is still unknown.b. autumn blues can be feelings of happiness.c. people feel tired in autumn.d. weather doesnt change people.50. which of the following cant you do in order to deal with autumn blues?a. reset the biological clock regulating mood, sleep and hormones. b. eat more food very low in calories and sugar.c. keep the balance of nerves that transmit information.d. take outdoor activities or sports.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 five steps to take if your child is being bullied 51 the worst thing you can do is ignore it. too often parents feel children and teens need to “work things out” on their own. if the problem is ignored, your childs self-esteem will become unhealthy, he will be hurt mentally or physically, and he could become a bully himself.here are five steps you can take if your child is having problems with a bully: 52 this is an important first step and will help your child trust that you are able to help him with his problem. accept what he has to say at face value by using your active listening skills.let your child know that he is not alone. 53 reassure your child that he is not the problem. nothing he did caused the bully to go after him.if your child is being threatened in a physical or illegal way at school, report the problem. your child may not want you to do this, or the school may not take it seriously, but violence cannot be tolerated. 54 you will need to model assertive (果断的) behavior by alerting those in charge where the bullying is taking place.teach your child assertive behavior and how to ignore routine teasing. let them know it is okay to say “no.” sometimes even friends bully, so letting your child know they can be true to their own feelings and say “no” can go a long way. 55 giving up possessions or giving in to a bully in anyway encourages the bully to continue. identify ways for your child to respond to a bully-showing assertive but not aggressive behavior-and role-play them.a. believe what your child tells you.b. encourage your child not to give in to a bully.c. praise your child for being brave enough to talk about it.d. bullying is a terrible situation for a child to have to cope with.e. if you choose not to do anything, that is what youre teaching you
