Ninety-five percent of Americans ages 13 to 17 have a smartphone or have access to one, and nearly half report using the internet "almost underline(D)".But as recent survey data and interviews have suggested, many teens find much of that time to be unsatisfyingly spent. Continuous underline(N) shouldn't be mistaken for endless enjoyment. A new underline(H) representative survey about "screen time and device distractions" from the Pew Research Center indicates that it's not just parents who think teenagers are worryingly underline(G) from their phones—many teens themselves do too. Fifty-four percent of the 13-to-17-year-olds surveyed said they spend too much time underline(A) in their phones.Vicky Rideout, who runs a research firm that studies children's interactions with media and technology, was not surprised by this finding. She says it's hardly underline(L) to teenagers.

Anxiety disorders are common and range from 10 percent to 20 percent of children and teens. Girl are usually more likely than boys to report anxiety symptoms or signs. Anxiety runs in families due to a combination of inherent and environmental factors. Anxious parents may produce anxious children. When signs are so severe that they interfere with daily life activities, it is time to seek an evaluation from a mental health professional. Consider the following example of a child who suffered stress disorder. Maria, age 12, was at her physician’s office awaiting her yearly checkup. A bullet from a gun battle in the next building tore through the wall and struck her mother in the shoulder, severely wounding her. The mother was rushed to the hospital, but Mafia did not know her fate for several days. Unable or unwilling to speak, visibly anxious and fearful, Mafia was evaluated by a child doctor in the same hospital several days later. He recommended a brief treatment and began by taking Mafia to her mother’s bedside. Mafia, reassured that her mother was alive, nevertheless could not be separated from her. During the following weeks she insisted on sleeping with her mother and would not let her out of her sight. Her mother was equally shocked, and told her daughter she was suffering great pain. The doctor began a series of play treatment sessions using dolls and paly surgical instruments in which Mafia performed operations in her doll hospital. She began to get great pleasure in her sessions. Her mother did not recover so quickly, so the doctor recommended individual treatment for her. The final sessions involved Mafia performing the operation on, not a doll, but her mother, who submitted to patient status once again. Playing out the painful theme was extremely beneficial, and with a minimum of interpretation, both were back to their normal functioning by the month’s end, Mafia did not need any medication. There are many ways of helping anxious children cope with their fears and worries. A careful evaluation and specific treatment plan can help these children get back on the path of normal development.Maria was taken to her mother’s bedside in the hospital to (). A. start her initial treatmentB. keep her morn in her sightC. sleep together with her mornD. help with her mom’s recovery

Even though we are living in an age where growing old is thought of as an inevitable misery, this doctor has been changing the game for seniors over the last 25 years. It all started in 1991 when the Harvard-educated physician was transferred from working in a stressful emergency room to being the medical director of a nursing home in upstate New York. The depressing and regimented (严格管制的) environment got him thinking on what exactly could improve the residents´ conditions. Even though animals in nursing homes were illegal at the time, Dr. Bill Thomas took a chance. Based on a hunch (直觉), he brought in two dogs, four cats, hens, rabbits, 100 birds, a multitude of plants, a flower garden, and a vegetable patch. The change was dramatic. There was a 50% drop in medical prescriptions along with a dramatic decrease in death rates—but most importantly, the residents were simply happier. Dr. Thomas´s approach, named the Eden Alternative, has driven nursing homes to allow a more autonomous (自主的) and creative living space for their elderly. It erases the belief that growing old means growing useless. He encourages residents to think of their age as an enriching new phase of life rather than the end of it. Thomas, now a speaker and author of several books, also created small, independently-run residences with their own bedrooms and bathrooms, and he has been preaching a singular message that getting old is not a bad thing. "Within six weeks, they had to send a truck around to pick up all the wheelchairs," Thomas told the Washington Post. "You know why most people in nursing homes use wheelchairs? Because the buildings are so big." The 56-year-old doctor´s methods have been adopted in Australia, Japan, Canada, and America with enormous success. Last year he published Second Wind: Navigating the Passage to a Slower, Deeper, and More Connected Life, a guide on how to shift our perspectives on aging and growth.
