In order to recover from mental distress,there's really no alternative but to get acquainted with psychotherapy.
Every human is in part neurotic(神经质).
A neurosis is any pattern of thinking or behavior that blocks our personalities and potential. .It should be part of every evolved human's mission to seek to understand the neurotic elements of their own personalities.The enquiry"And how are you neurotic?"should not be taken as an insult rather a sensible request for more information on our particular flaws.
The origins of most of our neuroses lie in our childhoods
.A trauma(创伤) may be continuous petty criticism or emotional neglect.Something.qualiries as a trauma because the child isn't able to make sense of the extreme pain and therefore suffers a serious blow to its command of trust,intelligence,and love.
Where there is an over-controlling parent,there will be a child with problems around autonomy(自主权).Where there is a belittling parent,there will be a child with difficulties of confidence and self-esteem.Every character flaw on the side of the parent necessarily imposes a toll on a child.
Healing comes through self-awareness.
To improve,we need to get rid of the state of depression and recover contact with the original trauma.And in order to do that,we need to accept that doing so would be a good idea. .
It won't be enough to know the past,we will need to feel it too.
We may have a practical sense of the central details of our childhoods,but an intellectual grasp won't be enough.We need to sincerely reexperience rather than merely intellectually know the past to free ourselves from its hold.Our neuroses will weaken or dissolve once the traumas are finally known and,even more importantly,felt.
A.Parents tend to give rise to a neurosis.
B.Its central ideas can be summarized as follows.
C.We have to agree that self-knowledge will be what can save us.
D.Parents assist their children in figuring out the difficulties.
F.Trauma leads to depression which overtime inspires the formation of neurotic symptoms.
F.What causes neuroses are intolerable frustrations and pains that we can refer to as traumas.
G.We may be neurotic in love or at work,in our friendships or in our attitudes to creativity or politics.

For years, music industry experts have warned that technological changes could lead to a shift in music consumption patterns, a decline in album sales, and challenges for traditional record labels. However, there's a silver lining: In Silicon Valley, one of the world's major tech hubs, technological innovation may actually enhance the music experience—for now.
A 70-year analysis of music critic scores in Silicon Valley, combined with data on technological advancements, showed that the quality of music—based on factors such as creativity and production value—has improved over time, according to a study.
From 1950 to 2020, researchers examined the variations in overall music quality in Silicon Valley. The team's statistical models tested how music quality was related to technological factors such as the availability of digital platforms, advancements in sound engineering, and the ease of music distribution.
The highest-quality music emerged during periods of rapid technological innovation, with increased access to digital platforms, improved sound quality, and more efficient distribution methods. Technological advancements are expected to make these conditions more prevalent in the region. For instance, it is predicted that by 2050, advancements in artificial intelligence will revolutionize music production, allowing for more complex and innovative compositions. Digital platforms have also democratized music distribution, enabling independent artists to reach wider audiences.
Study leader Emily was surprised to find that increased investment in music technology during periods of economic downturn resulted in higher quality music for the following years. "Traditionally, we focus on the immediate impact of technology on music production. However, the infrastructure built during these times has a lasting effect on the industry," says Emily. More investment in technology might lead to better resources and tools for artists. "Empowered artists create better music," says Emily.
(1)、What may be the effect of technological innovation on music in Silicon Valley in paragraph 1?A、The music experience is enhanced. B、The cost of music production is higher. C、The number of record labels increases. D、The quality of music is lower.(2)、What's the purpose of the example in paragraph 4?A、To make a comparison. B、To arouse readers' interest. C、To give a recommendation. D、To explain the author's opinion.(3)、What is the last paragraph mainly about?A、The impact of economic conditions on music technology. B、The positive effects of increased investment on music quality. C、The importance of traditional music production methods. D、The role of independent artists in the music industry.(4)、In which section of a website can we read this text?A、Science. B、Lifestyle. C、Technology. D、Entertainment. -

This year has brought some exciting developments in the field of space exploration. The new spacecraft "Starship," developed through a collaboration between SpaceX and NASA, successfully launched and returned to Earth in September. This achievement marks a significant step forward in humanity's journey into space.
Space exploration has long been a dream for humanity, as it not only expands our horizons but also has the potential to unlock new resources and knowledge. The vastness of space offers countless opportunities for scientific discovery and technological advancement. For instance, the exploration of other planets and celestial bodies could lead to breakthroughs in understanding the origins of the universe and the possibility of life beyond Earth.
In July, the International Space Agency (ISA) fully approved the use of advanced propulsion systems for future missions. This technology is designed to "increase the speed and efficiency of spacecraft, allowing them to travel farther and faster than ever before," according to space expert Dr. Emily Johnson. As a result, these systems can only be effective for missions that require long-duration travel, such as those to Mars or the outer planets.
However, space exploration is not without its challenges. According to the ISA's press release, after a 79-week trial of the new propulsion systems, it was found that while they could enhance the capabilities of spacecraft, they could not yet overcome all the obstacles associated with deep space travel, such as radiation exposure and the psychological impact on astronauts. What they offer is a way for space missions to achieve more ambitious goals and push the boundaries of human exploration.
According to the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs, at least 90 countries are currently involved in space activities, with the number of space missions increasing rapidly each year. As scientists continue to make efforts, there is growing hope that they can one day create a future where space exploration is not only feasible but also sustainable.
(1)、What excites space enthusiasts about recent developments?A、A collaboration between SpaceX and NASA. B、The vastness of space. C、The launch of a new spacecraft. D、The possibility of life beyond Earth.(2)、In what way are advanced propulsion systems effective for space missions?A、They can detect obstacles in space. B、They can overcome all challenges of deep space travel. C、They can be used for short-duration missions. D、They can increase speed and efficiency for long-duration travel.(3)、What is the author's attitude toward the future of space exploration?A、Doubtful. B、Uncaring. C、Positive. D、Negative.(4)、What can be a suitable title for the text?A、Advances in Space Exploration Technology B、The Promise of New Spacecraft for Future Missions C、The Challenges and Rewards of Space Exploration D、The Role of Propulsion Systems in Space Travel -

Ryan is a young individual of commendable character, consistently achieving stellar academic results, demonstrating proficiency in the sport of lacrosse, and enjoying widespread admiration. Consequently, Jennifer and her spouse perceived no evident reason to withhold an Instagram account from their son, who was in the sixth grade, until Ryan posted an image of himself grasping an empty beer bottle that his father had just drained. "My husband observed the photograph materialize on Ryan's profile and promptly ascended the stairs, insisting that he remove it without delay," Jennifer narrates. "I surmise that my son did not grasp the severity of the impression his picture conveyed. He was endeavoring to be humorous, yet he is still in the sixth grade! Even if he was simply posing, that image was exceedingly inappropriate."
With the burgeoning popularity of the photo-sharing platform Instagram, it is not uncommon for parents to cultivate a misplaced sense of security. Unlike Facebook or Twitter, which encompass a more extensive array of content, Instagram is predominantly dedicated to the posting of images. Coupled with the age requirement of 13 and its privacy settings, it appears to be an almost innocuous site for children. How much mischief could they conceivably cause? However, this is not the actuality.
Surprisingly, some youngsters are resorting to paying for attention on social media. When Paula Pryor detected an enigmatic charge of $700 on her credit card, the last thing she anticipated was that it was a payment to a company that facilitated the acquisition of "likes" for Instagram photographs. "My son Hayden believed it was merely ten dollars, but it was ten dollars per 'like'," Pryor elucidates.
Often, the cause for concern is not one's own adolescent—it's someone else's child. Megan Koster was perplexed as to why her daughter Delaney suddenly became so apprehensive about whether her panty line was discernible through her jeans. Eventually, Delaney disclosed that she was worried someone might capture a photograph and post it on Instagram. "I don't think I would have survived middle school if websites like this had existed back then," Koster laments.
(1)、What made Jennifer think her son Ryan could have an Instagram account?A、He gained popularity in school. B、He was skilled at using Instagram. C、He showed interest in taking photos. D、He was old enough and behaved well.(2)、What does the underlined word "they" in paragraph 2 refer to?A、Instagram accounts. B、Social media. C、Pictures. D、Children.(3)、Why did Pryor's son pay the company $700?A、To obtain the picture he liked. B、To pay attention to social media. C、To get his photos noticed and liked. D、To pay the charge on his credit card.(4)、What's the text mainly about?A、Teen's problems with Instagram. B、Inappropriate pictures from children. C、The influence of the Internet on young users. D、Concerns for the Internet security for children. -

I love holidays! There's nothing better than jetting off to a foreign destination to visit the attractions it has on offer. Of course, I'm not alone. Millions of people are doing the same, and why not? The world has an amazing variety of must-see sights, from breathtaking natural scenery to impressive old cities. But the problem is that too many of us are visiting them at the same time, putting pressure on these delicate and ancient places.
That's why a number of beauty spots and historic sites have been introducing charges or restrictions on the tourists who visit. There are many reasons for this: to reduce overcrowding, which can spoil the atmosphere of a place, to manage wear and tear on old buildings, to tidy up the mess that visitors leave behind, or-as some may suggest-creating tourist traps to make more money out of the visitors.
The famous Italian city of Venice with its picturesque canals has, for example, introduced an entry fee of up to€10 for short-stay tourists. Venetians have long complained that mass tourism is wearing out the city. Now, passengers arriving by cruise ship will have to pay a "landing tax" which Mayor Luigi Brugnaro says, "would generate much-needed income to keep the city clean."
Many cities in Europe already charge an occupancy tax on tourists who stay in hotels and guest houses. In the UK, Edinburgh is hoping to do the same, controversially making it the first city in the country to do so. This tax that is usually charged per person per night of accommodation raises money to help protect the environment, pay for infrastructure (基础建设), or promote tourism.
In Italy's capital city, Rome, new laws are being introduced to clamp down on bad tourist behavior, which some argue is spoiling the look and feel of the city. Rules include banning drinking water from fountains and attaching "love padlocks" to bridges.
As more of us can now afford to travel, global tourist destinations are going to get busier, so maybe new taxes and laws are going to be a necessary part of the sightseeing experience.
(1)、Why do many attractions introduce charges or restrictions on tourists?A、To relieve stress on the fine and old places. B、To adopt a hunger- marketing strategy. C、To pay for cruise ship and accommodation. D、To include a necessary part of sightseeing.(2)、Why does the author mention Edinburgh?A、To stress the importance of tourism. B、To give another example of tourist tax. C、To encourage people to pay tax. D、To recommend hotels and guest houses.(3)、Which word could best replace the underlined phrase "clamp down on" in paragraph 5?A、Spoil. B、Spot. C、Prohibit. D、Promote.(4)、What may be the author's opinion about the new taxes and laws?A、They will lead to more crowded sites. B、The effect will die down. C、They will encounter strong opposition. D、The trend will spread out. -
