Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people like their parents and classmates. Li Wen, a junior 2 student from No. 2 Middle School, could not understand his teacher and was doing badly in his lessons. He became so worried about it that he started to cut his finger with a knife. Another student, 16yearold Yang Fang from No. 1 Middle School, was afraid of exams. She got very worried in one, and when she looked at the exam paper, she couldnt think of anything to write. A recent report from Jiefang Daily says about 18 of Shanghai teenagers have mental problems. Their troubles include being worried and very unhappy, and having problems in learning and getting on with people. Many students who have problems wont go for advice or help. Some think they will look stupid if they go to see a doctor. Others dont want to talk about their secrets. Liang Yuezhu, an expert on teenagers from Beijing Anding Hospital has the following advice for teenagers：* Talk to your parents or teachers often. * Take part in group activities and play sports. * Go to see a doctor if you feel unhappy or unwell. 1The students who often become worried or have trouble getting on with others may have_.

A tornado appears as a rotating, funnel（漏斗）shaped cloud that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground with whirling winds that can reach 300 miles per hour. Damage paths can be over one mile wide and 50 miles long. Every state is at some risk from this disaster. Some tornadoes can be seen clearly, while rain or nearby lowhanging clouds obscure others. At many times, tornadoes develop so rapidly that little, if any, advance warning is possible. Before a tornado hits, the air may become very still. A cloud of debris（散片）can mark the location of a tornado even if a funnel can not be seen. Tornadoes generally occur near the edge of a thunderstorm, when the strong wind may die down. It is not uncommon to see clear, sunlit skies behind a tornado. The following are facts about tornadoes：The average forward speed of a tornado is 30 MPH, but may also vary from still to 70 MPHDebris are picked up or a cloud forms in the funnel. The average tornado moves southwest to northeast, but tornadoes have been known to move in any direction. Tornadoes are most often reported east of the Rocky Mountains during spring and summer months. Tornadoes can happen together with tropical storms and hurricanes as they move onto land. Waterspouts are tornadoes that form over water. Peak tornado season in the southern states of America is March through May; in the northern states, it is late spring through early summer. Tornadoes are most likely to occur between 3 p.m. and 9 p.m. , but can occur at any time. 6From the passage, we can learn that tornadoes come from_.
