More than 2 million US teenagers have suffered a serious bout（發(fā)作) of depression in the past year, according to a federal government survey released on Tuesday.

On average, 8.5 percent of adolescents aged 12 to 17 described having had a major depressive episode in the previous year, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration reported.

But there were "striking differences" by sex, with 12.7 percent of girls and 4.6 percent of boys affected.

Depression is the leading cause of suicide, which in turn is the third-leading cause of death for 15- to 24-year-olds in the United States.

"The data Combined 2004 to 2006 data showed that rates of past year major depressive experience among youths aged 12 to 17 generally increased with increasing age," the researchers wrote.

Researchers at SAMHSA and RTI International in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, prepared the report using data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health.

More than 67,700 youths aged 12 to 17 answered questions about mood and depression. They were also asked to rate how depression affected them using the Sheehan Disability Scale(殘疾量表), which measures impact on family, friends, chores at home, work and school.

Researchers defined a major depressive episode as two weeks or longer of depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure, and at least four other symptoms such as problems with sleep, energy, concentration or self-image.

Nearly half of the teenagers who had major depression said it severely damaged their ability to function in at least one of the areas on the disability scale.

"Fortunately, depression responds very well to early intervention and treatment," SAMHSA Administrator Terry Cline said in a statement.

1. The underlined word “ episode ” in paragraph 2 probably means _________.

A. experiment B. experience

C. expression D. feeling

2.What can be implied, but is not stated directly?

A. depression is the third-leading cause of suicide.

B. There were over 2 million American teens suffering depression in the past two years.

C. The students surveyed were aged between 12 and 17.

D. There were more girl students suffering depression than boys.

3. The main symptoms of a serious depressive episode include ________ .

A. no family or friends or jobs or interests at all.

B. low spirits, lack of sleep, energy and self-image, and poor concentration.

C. poor health, sex discrimination, less energy and loss of interests

D. suicide, sadness, lack of confidence and depression.

Edda, a Little Valkyrie’s First Day of School

Written and illustrated(配圖) by Adam Auerbach.

32 pp. Christy Ottaviano/Holt. $15.50.

Edda’s home is in Asgard, “a land full of magic and adventure.” But Edda, the littlest Valkyrie, doesn’t have quite enough to do, until her father flies her “all the way to Earth for the first day of school.”

The contrast between home and school is hard to get used to (in one, she can ride reindeer; in the other she gazes guinea pig(天竺鼠) through glass at the classroom). In his first picture book, Auerbach mixes the two worlds perfectly. Children are likely to appreciate the joke.

Planet Kindergarten

By Sue Ganz-Schmitt. Illustrated by Shane Prigmore.

32 pp. Chronicle. $14.99.

After careful preparations and a successful blastoff, a boy finds himself in a very unfamiliar environment. “We’re aliens from many galaxies(星系) on Planet Kindergarten,” he reflects as he sees his very varied classmates for the first time.

Prigmore, who designs for the movie industry, uses black backgrounds and bright colors to give this space adventure visual excitement and humor.

The Smallest Girl in the Smallest Grade

By Justin Roberts. Illustrated by Christian Robinson.

42 pp. Putnam. $18.99.

It makes sense that the author of the long, rhyming lines in “The Smallest Girl in the Smallest Grade” is a children’s music performer. The story is about the power of one small person to fight prejudice.

Sally, whom no one ever seems to notice, is “paying super extra special attention” to the “terrible stuff” happening around her. When she decides to take action, she’s not alone for long.

And Two Boys Booed

By Judith Viorst.

32 pp. Margaret Ferguson/Farrar, Straus & Giroux. $16.59.

Ever felt quietly confident one minute, and a shaking mess the next? In Viorst’s story about determination, a little boy wakes up thinking about singing his song in the class talent show.

1.Which of the following is true about the book Edda, a Little Valkyrie’s First Day of School?

A. Edda found it easy to apply herself to the life on earth.

B. The book was Adam Auerbach’s first picture book.

C. The book was illustrated by Shane Prigmore.

D. The story of the book was about a little boy’s determination.

2.If you are interested in space adventure, you would probably choose______.

A. Edda, a Little Valkyrie’s First Day of School

B. Planet Kindergarten

C. The Smallest Girl in the Smallest Grade

D. And Two Boys Booed

3.The book The Smallest Girl in the Smallest Grade was published by__________.

A. Christy Ottaviano/Holt.

B. Chronicle.

C. Putnam

D. Margaret Ferguson/Farrar, Straus & Giroux.

4.All of the four books mentioned_______________.

A. are for children

B. have the same number of pages

C. have colorful pictures in them

D. need reading under parents’ guidance

DEAR AMY: We recently had to put our cat down. It came out of the blue. We had no idea that he had health problems, and we woke up early one morning to the cat crying out painfully. We immediately rushed him to the vet’s where the vet said that at best treatment might lengthen his life by two to three months. We did not want to see him suffer, so we chose to kill the cat in a painless way.

I am having a rough time! I cry when I am alone. I cry when I see pet commercials on television. I put away everything that reminds me of the cat. But the last sight of seeing the cat in pain plays over and over in my head. My kids seem alright with what has happened, but why am I struggling?

It has only been one week since his passing, so I hope things will get better. Do you have any suggestions?

Yours,

Sad

DEAR SAD: There is no loss quite like the loss of a pet; these animals keep us company through important life passages and are beloved witnesses to our human lives.

I understand your instinct to put away all of your cat’s things, but it may help you now to memorialize your pet by using these things. Each family member can write down favorite things about him or memories of him; read their memories aloud and put the papers inside his bowl. The idea is to replace those painful last memories with much more lively memories taking place over the most of the animal’s life.

Time will then do its job, which is to affect your feelings. And then, when you’re ready, I hope you will adopt another animal and give it the opportunity to share your life.

Yours,

Amy

3.What does the underlined phrase mean in Paragraph 1?

C.All of a sudden. D.With much pain.

D.One can’t live a happy life without a pet around him.
