2013高考英语二轮阅读理解(三月强化训练11)及答案 (1) Most of the teenagers with major depression never get treatment for it, according to a new federal report. That depressing news comes as no surprise to healthcare professionals, who say that many kids and parents don’t recognize depression’s symptoms(症状). And if they do, it can be difficult or impossible to get help. This is no small problem; about 2 million teenagers experience clinical depression each year, an illness that can do harm to school performance and friendships and is a leading cause of teen suicide(自杀). The new report found that just 39 percent of teens with major depression got treatment. Here are three ways to make sure your child can get over the problem. Getting diagnosed(诊断). Last month, pediatricians(儿科医生) and family doctors were required to examine all teenagers for depression. Courtney Jones, a 17-year-old in Portland, Ore., said that the examination saved her life when she was 14. She didn’t recognize that her loss of confidence and sudden lack of interest in spending time with friends were warning signs. Symptoms of depression include frequent sadness, decreased interest in activities, and hopelessness. Finding help. It’s no surprise to healthcare professionals that families have a hard time finding mental-health services; there are only 7,418 child and adolescent psychiatrists(精神科医生) in the United States, or about 1 for every 10,000 kids. For now, the best first step is to be examined by a pediatrician or family doctor, and then go to a psychiatrist for treatment and perhaps medication.?David Palmiter, a psychologist, suggests checking out local universities, which often run clinics, as well as community mental-health clinics.? Paying for treatment. Paying for healthcare is a struggle these days, and mental-health services can be ever harder to cover. The report found that lack of health insurance coverage was the biggest barrier to getting help. Only 17.2 percent of teens without health insurance coverage were able to get treatment. However, there are still ways to find affordable mental-health care that you may not be aware of. In a word, you should establish a relationship with a doctor, give the doctor a chance to get to know your kid and help her or him get better. 1.

A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears. One explanation is the law of overlearning , which can be stated as follows: Once we have learned something, additional learning trials(尝试)increase the length of time we will remember it. In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks. We not only learn but overlearn. The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表)are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood. The law of overleaming explains why cramming(突击学习)for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning. on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development. 67. Who is the main idea of paragraph I? A. People remember well what they learned in childhood. B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups. C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words. D. Stories for children arc easy to remember. 68.The author explains the law of overleaming by_________. A. presenting research findings B. selling down general rules C. making a comparison D. using examples 69. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_______. A. a result of overlearning B. a special case of cramming C. a skill to deal with math problems D. a basic step towards advanced studies 70. What does the word "they" in Paragraph 4 refer to? A. Commonly accepted rules. B. The multiplication tables. C. Things easily forgotten. D. School subjects. 71. What is the author's opinion on cramming? A. It leads to failure in college exams. B. It's helpful only in a limited way. C. It's possible to result in poor memory. D. It increases students' learning interest.
