【推荐1】We all know that theme parks are places to have fun and amuse ourselves, but among so many exciting rides there are also some dangers.Make sure you know what the safety standards are for all the attractions at the park.If you do that, you will be safe and have fun.

Drink water.Believe it or not, dehydration—when your body doesn’t have enough water—is the commonest cause of injuries at theme parks.Drinking water while you are at the park is not enough.You must make sure that you drink enough water before you visit it.

Use your “common sense”.There are lots of people around,so make sure you know where your friends or family are.Also, if you are walking and want to stop, make sure nobody is walking behind you.First step aside, then look behind and if you aren’t in anybody’s way, then stop.It might sound upset, but crashes between people can cause accidents.

Follow the instructions.The majority of theme parks have instructions for each ride.Some rides only allow people of a certain height.So make sure you are not too tall or too short before boarding any ride.Also, people with certain diseases or conditions are advised not to go on some rides.Do remember: If you are told not to go on a ride,then DON’T.

Do not ride with a bad stomach or if you’ve just eaten.Rides can make you ill because of their violent changes of direction and your lunch may end up on someone else’s head; surely not a very pleasant experience.

Have fun, relax and be a little brave! Some rides might look scary but theme parks are very safe places.

【推荐3】

Depression hurts, Prozac can help

Depression isn’t just feeling down. It’s a real illness with real causes. Depression can be triggered by stressful life events, like divorce or a death in the family. Or it can appear suddenly, for no apparent reason.

Some people think you can just will yourself out of a depression. That’s not true. Many doctors believe that one thing that may cause depression is an imbalance of serotonin — a chemical in your body. If this happens, you may have trouble sleeping. Feel unusually sad or irritable easily. Find it hard to concentrate. Lose your appetite. Lack energy. Or have trouble feeling pleasure. These are some of the symptoms that can point to depression—especially if they last for more than a couple of weeks and if normal, everyday life feels like too much to handle.

To help fight depression, the medicine doctors now prescribe (开处方) most often is Prozac. Prozac isn’t a “happy pill.” It’s not a tranquilizer (镇静剂) . It won’t turn you into a different person.

Some people do experience mild side effects, like upset stomach, headaches, difficulty sleeping, sleepiness, anxiety and nervousness. These tend to go away. within a few weeks of starting treatment, and usually aren’t serious enough to make most people stop taking it. However, if you are concerned about a side effect, or if you develop a rash (皮疹) , tell your doctor right away. And don’t forget to tell your doctor any other medicines you are taking. Some people should not take Prozac, especially people on MAO inhibitors (单胺抑制剂) .

As you start feeling better, your doctor can suggest therapy or other means to help you ● through your depression. Prozac has been carefully studied for nearly 10 years. But remember, Prozac is a prescription medicine, and it isn’t right for everyone. Only your doctor can decide if Prozac is right for you— or for someone you love. Prozac has been prescribed for more than 17 million Americans. Chances are someone you know is feeling sunny again because of it.

1. All the following are true EXCEPT ________.
A.Tremendous determination is essential to getting rid of depression.
B.Sleep disorder is one of the signs characteristic of depression.
C.Depression can be caused by a combination of factors.
D.Depression is a psychological state taking the form of low mood.
2. What can we learn about Prozac from this piece of information?
A.Prozac infuses depression patients with energy at the cost of modest side effects.
B.Taking Prozac together with other prescriptions may give you a rash.
C.A medical prescription must be acquired if you intend to take Prozac.
D.Over 17 million Americans have been involved in studies of Prozac so far.
3. This piece of information is most probably ________.
A.an introduction to a scientific project
B.a part of prescription drug instructions
C.a part of a research report in a medical journal
D.an advertisement of a medicine for depression
