1     (throw) a pomegranate (石榴) on New Year’s Day is an ancient Greek custom     2     continues to this day as the red-colored fruit is considered a symbol of life and good fortune. Ancient Greeks     3     (believe) that the pomegranate’s red seeds stood for richness, perhaps because of their quantity.

Pomegranates are     4     (particular) rich in sugar, vitamins and minerals. They have more antioxidants than red wine or green tea. This fruit is also     5     unique cosmetic (化妆品). Some companies use pomegranates in their products     6     skin care.

In modern times, the Greek family gathers outside on New Year’s Eve,     7     when the clock strikes midnight, a pomegranate is thrown onto the front door of the house. The more seeds that spread on the floor, the     8     (lucky) the New Year will be.

Lots of archaeological findings prove that the pomegranate fruit was known in ancient times as it     9     (reflect) in ancient art. A Museum in Athens has in its holdings a splendid brass (黄铜) pomegranate     10     (discover) at the Acropolis.

Tom spent most of his time searching for information on the Internet each day, which made his parents worried. In his father’s opinion,     1     (sit) in front of a computer did great harm to his son's health. However, he found that it was no use     2     (advise) Tom to spend less time on the Internet, for he wouldn’t listen. Tom told his parents that that was what his job required. His mother wanted him to change his job, but Tom said that he was fond of it and     3     (stay) up late had become his habit.

In my opinion, it is not wise to spend too much time on the Internet.     4     (have) a rest regularly will be of great help while working at the computer. In addition,     5     (set) aside some time to relax is also very important.

Young people in the U. S. are experiencing a mental health crisis. Reports from the surgeon general, and the American Psychological Association highlight the phenomenon, with families and children trying to get a moment with     1     (exhaust) counselors, psychologists or social workers.

Scientific advances have identified effective school-based mental health practices, such as emotional-regulation training that teaches children    2     to cope with strong feelings, or screenings to detect mental health crises before they occur. These insights and practices have largely been ignored. Now is the time to act on them.    3     long-disproved theories of physical and mental health as being two independent system have motivated the annual investment of billion in medical research and physician training, few resources are available to advance psychological science or a mental health workforce.

The need is clear. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,     4     one of us, Kathleen A. Ethier, is director of adolescent and school health, reveal that in 2009 -2019, a remarkably high number of young people reported     5     (feel) severe emotional distress. Specifically, in 2019, so sad and hopeless    6     37 percent of high school students feel that they couldn't participate in regular activities.

The way forward can be found in science-based psycho-social approaches that one of us, Mitch Prinstein and our psychologist colleagues     7     (develop) over recent decades. We have identified effective methods to prevent emotional or behavioral distress by teaching children skills to cope with stressors, develop healthy social relationships and spot depression warning signs. For instance, during the pandemic, students who felt connected to others in school were       8     (likely) to experience indicators of poor mental health.

These programs require a commitment to the science of behavior and the implementation of innovative initiatives. And they need resources - to implement these prevention approaches at scale and among populations most at need. Failure    9     (address) this mental health crisis will result in not only the distress of millions of U. S. youth today but a change in the productivity, success and wellness of U. S. citizens at large     10     this generation matures.
