A man sat at an underground station in Washington, D.C.,
and started to play the violin. It was a cold day in January. He
played six Bach(巴赫) pieces for about 45 minutes. It was rush
hour and thousands of people went through the station, most of
them on their way to work.
Three minutes went by and the first person, a middle-aged
man, noticed there was a musician playing. He slowed down and
stopped for a few seconds and then hurried up to meet his schedule.
After a minute, the violinist received his first dollar tip: a young woman threw the money in the box and continued to walk. Then another few minutes went by and someone stood against the wall to listen to him, but the young man looked at his watch and started to walk again. Clearly he was late for work.
During the musician’s performance, only six people stopped and stayed for a while, twenty gave him money but continued to walk. When he finished playing, no one applauded(鼓掌). No one knew the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the best musicians in the world.
This is a real story. Joshua Bell playing in the underground station was organized by The Washington Post (《华盛顿邮报》) as part of a social experiment. One of the conclusions from this experiment could be: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world playing the best music, how many other things are we missing?

When taking an elevator, do you often push the “close” button? You hope by pushing it, the elevator door will close faster. But what if the button is actually fake (假的)?
Karen Penafiel is the executive director (执行董事) of the US National Elevator Industry. She said that elevators’ “close” buttons are a complete trick, at least in the US, and that doors will not close any faster no matter how hard you push.
In the 1990s the Americans with Disabilities Act (《美国残疾人法案》) was passed in the US. It means all elevators have to stay open long enough to allow disabled (残疾的) people to enter. Only US firefighters and elevator workers can really use the buttons with special keys.
But the buttons aren’t completely useless. According to psychologists (心理学家), fake buttons can make you feel better. They give you a sense of control that can help reduce stress. That’s why some other buttons in our lives are fake, too.
For example, many offices in the US have fake thermostats (温控器). People may feel better when they think they can control the temperature in their workspace.
You were told that traffic light buttons could help make the traffic signals change faster. But they may not really work either.
However, even when people know these little “white lies”, they still push fake buttons. As long as the doors finally close, it seems worthy.
John Kounios is a psychology professor at Drexel University in the US. He told The New York Times that he always pushes the traffic light buttons. “After all, I’ve got nothing else to do while waiting. So why not push the button on the off chance that this one will work?”
69. If you push the “close” button in the US, the elevator door will ________.
A) close immediately B) not be completely open
C) play a trick on you D) not close as fast as you wish
70. In the US, in order for disabled people to go in safely, ________. A) elevator workers will press the “open” button for them B) they will be given a special key to use in the elevators C) all elevators are designed to open long enough D) no “close” button is fixed on the elevators 71. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as fake? A) Thermostat buttons. B) Elevator buttons. C) Traffic light buttons. D) Power buttons. 72. There are quite a few fake buttons in our lives because they can ________.
A) control people’s senses B) help people feel better C) control the temperature D) tell “white lies” 73. The underlined words “on the off chance ” in the last paragraph most probably mean “_____”. A) with the little hope
B) without any plan C) with a great opportunity D) without any possibility 74. The best title for the passage is ________. A) Button pushing society
B) Useless buttons C) Buttons for disabled people
D) Fake elevator buttons

Jamie and Corey are best friends. One day Jamie told his pal Corey a secret he had overheard in the office. He softly whispered（耳语）to Corey that the school was going to host a sundae party for all the fifth graders who had a perfect behaviour record. Corey asked Jamie what a perfect behavior record meant. Jamie told him perfect meant a student hadn’t been sent to the headmaster’s office or punished to stay after school the whole year. Corey thought this was a
great idea because he was tired of being good without reward（回报）- it seemed
all the naughty kids were having the most fun.
Corey couldn’t take his mind off the party and kept thinking about delicious sundaes with hot sweet topping and cream. During reading group, Corey told his group partner, Daniel, the secret.

Daniel was thrilled to be told a secret.
Back at Daniel’s desk, his seat partner Matt asked Daniel what he was smiling about. Daniel wasn’t a very good secret-keeper. He did not hesitate to tell Matt the great news. “There is going to be a party on Sunday and maybe you can go if Jamie likes you.”

Matt waited for Jamie outside of his classroom. When Jamie exited, Matt asked him, “Can I come to your birthday party on Sunday?”

There is an old saying: one good turn deserves another. It means you do a
helpful or kind act for someone who has done something good for you.
Denson is a mechanic（机修工）, but he lost his job a few months ago. He is
kind and helpful, but always feared applying for a new job.
One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview.
His appointment was at 10 a.m. and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre (轮胎) of his car. Obviously (很显然) there was something wrong with the car. Denson immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Denson finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Denson said there was no need to pay him and he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It's the least I could do. Please, I insist.” Denson agreed.
On arrival, Denson found a long line of applicants （求职人）waiting to be interviewed. Denson still had some grease (油脂) on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer's office with
disappointed looks on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Denson's heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself. Then the interviewer turned the chair and to Denson's surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was the General Manager of the company. “Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as a member of the company before you even stepped into the office. I just know you'd be a trustworthy (值得信赖的) worker. Congratulations！”Denson sat down and they shared a cup of coffee as he landed himself a new job.

One young excellent person was applying for a high position in a big company. It was the manager who would make the final decision.
The manager discovered that the young man did an excellent job in his college, which aroused the manager’s curiosity (好奇).
The manager asked, “Who paid for your college?”
The young man answered, “My father passed away when I was one year old, so it was just my mother.”

“She is a clothes cleaner,” the young man answered, with no emotion.

A. Choose the best answer (根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案) (12分)
In English, when someone is very angry we say this person “sees red”, just as a bull goes wild after seeing a red cloth. Now it turns out that “seeing red” is not just an
expression for any people, but also a scientific fact.
Researchers at North Dakota State University in the US found that
there is a connection between the color red and anger. Angry people really do
“see red” where others don’t. And a preference for red over blue may even
suggest a more hostile personality.
The study includes a number of experiments. In the first, researchers
asked a group of people which color they preferred, red or blue. Participants
（参加者）then did personality tests. Results showed that those who chose red tended to be more hostile.
During a second test, participants looked at faded images that could be regarded either red or blue. Those who saw red scored 25 percent higher on hostility in the personality test.
“Hostile people have hostile thoughts; hostile thoughts are connected with the color red, and therefore hostile people see this color more frequently.” the researchers told The Independent.
Finally, the participants were told about imaginary situations in which they could take different actions. Results showed that in these situations, red-preferring people were more likely to show that they would harm another person than those who preferred blue.
“An important message from this research is that color can send psychological（心理的）meaning,” the researchers said.
Where does this connection between the color red and anger come from? Scientists said it might be a matter of evolution（进化）. In ancient times, poisonous plants and insects could cause wounds and bleeding. So it may have become instinctive（本能的）for people to link color red with danger and threats.
69. “Seeing red” is not just an expression for angry people, but also a_______.
A) legend story B) funny joke
C) scientific fact D) useful suggestion
70. The underlined word “hostile” in the second paragraph means ________.
A) unfriendly B) popular
C) upset D) cheerful
71. During a second test, those who saw red scored 25 percent ________ on hostility in the
personality test.
A) lower B) higher C) more D) less
72. In the final test, the participants were told about _______ in which they could take different
actions.
A) faded images B) the true information
C) the same experience D) imaginary situations
73. Which of the following is NOT true about the study?
A) Participants did personality tests in the study.
B) Participants took three tests in the study.
C) Participants were tested on seven different colors.
D) Blue-preferring people were less likely to harm others.
74. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A) It tells us scientists’ new findings.
B) It explains why red is connected to anger.
C) It tells us the importance if evolution.
D) It shows us the poor living conditions of ancient people.

April 13, 1539
Outside Mexico City
Dear Mariana,
Today we arrived safe. It was a long and dangerous trip over the ocean. The winter storms were strong. We were always a little sick from high waves.
The journey from the shore(海岸) to Mexico City is also long and dangerous. There are robbers in the countryside. We will travel together with the other ship passengers, thinking we will be safer as a group. Tomorrow we will travel into the city to find our uncle.
Father says it will take a year for this letter to reach you. The trip from New Spain to Spain is very long.
Your loving brother,
Tomas ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
April 20, 1539
Mexico City
Dear Mariana,
Father and I finally arrived at Mexico City. Here, old buildings are being pulled down; new
ones are being built. Just around the corner from Uncle’s city house, Aztec workers are pulling down
a small, beautiful pyramid. Father says it is one of the last Aztec temples(庙宇).
In the center of the city, I met an Aztec boy named Carlos. He speaks a little Spanish. Carlos
learns Spanish at his new school. He told me that the Spanish set up new schools for the Aztecs.
There he got his new name, Carlos. He says he likes his new school but misses his old city. I wonder
what this city used to be like before Cortes came.
Tomorrow we will go to Uncle’s farmland. He and Father are talking about the Aztec workers
that Father will oversee(监管).
Your brother, Cortes
Tomas
Did you know Aztecs?
The Aztecs were the Native Americans who lived in Central Mexico from the early 1300s to the early 1500s. The Aztecs were powerful and founded the capital city of Tenochtitlan, where Mexico City is today. The Spanish conqueror Cortes arrived in 1519. After many battles, he conquered the Aztecs.

Last summer, I began the biggest adventure of my life. I moved
from a tiny city in England to one of the largest cities in the world.
As the plane landed in Beijing, I felt excited that I’d finally arrived
after months of planning. One of the first things I did was visiting one
of the city’s hutongs(胡同). Strolling (闲逛) around the narrow streets,
the warm air was filled with the smell of delicious food as people played mahjong and rode their old-fashioned bikes. This was the first moment I thought, “Wow, I’m in China.”
Beijing couldn’t be more different to my home city, Preston, which has a population of just 114,000. It has one shopping street that’s around 500 meters from one end to the other and on Sunday, all the shops close at 4:00 pm. There isn’t a great deal of choice when it comes to restaurants, either, and as a fan of food, I cou ldn’t wait to see what Beijing has to offer. I still don’t have a favorite dish here yet. I’m still happily working my way through the city’s countless restaurants to try figure that out.
I’m slowly getting used to the fast-paced (快节奏的) lifestyle and different way of life, but I still find some habits here quite strange and humorous.
British people are raised to not make any sort of bodily noise at the dinner table or in public, so to hear the loud noise of Chinese diners or the throat-clearing (清嗓子) sounds of colleagues (同事) was a funny culture shock at first.
Something else I’ve discovered is the attention that being a foreigner brings. On the subway or in streets and restaurants, some people stare (盯着看) and try to take secret photos of me. It seems that I am a famous person or a popular star.
In the future, I hope to see many other parts of China. My dream is to buy a motorbike and travel from one end to the other of this beautiful country, taking photos and meeting new people along the way.
My adventure in China is only just beginning, and I can’t wait to see how it turns out.
69. Last summer , the author started his biggest adventure from _________.
A) England B) Beijing
C) Preston D) London

Hi Jim!
I’m sending this email from a computer in a youth hostel, I’m on a
hiking trip with my brother. We’re walking along Hadrian’s Wall. It
crosses England from one side to the other. The Romans built it about
1,900 years ago. This was the edge of the Roman Empire (帝国) then.
Archaeologists (考古学家) say the Romans probably built the wall to
keep out the people who lived north of here.
There’s still quite a lot of the wall left,but in some places it’s
disappeared completely. Over the years, people took the stones away to build houses and roads. You can walk along the wall---or where it used to be --- for more than 120 kilometers. We’re going to do all of it! Today we did about 20 kilometers. We’re camping some nights
and staying in youth hostels on other nights.
It’s really interesting. Some parts of the wall have been rebuilt, so you can imagine how it all looked. Yesterday we went to a museum. It showed what
life was like for the Roman soldiers who had to live here all those years. Lots
of them hated it because it was so cold and wet.
But it hasn’t been cold and wet for us this week! The weather’s been nice. There are lots of people doing the walk, and the campsites and hostels are pretty crowded. Someone told us it’s the most popular place for tourists in the north of England.
That’s all for now. Someone wants to use the computer.
Robin

71. Some parts of Hadrian’s Wall disappeared .

72. On this vacation, Robin is staying .

D. at his brother’s home

Nothing in Wiley Post’s early years showed that he would become a famous pilot one day.
His family were farmers. In 1913, Wiley saw something that forever
changed his life – an airplane. Wiley Post began to study everything he
could find about flying. Post finally rode in an airplane in 1919. After his
first ride, Wiley Post knew that flying was something he could learn to do.
Wiley Post began his career (职业生涯) in flying, not as a pilot, but as
a performer who jumps from airplanes using a parachute (降落傘). He did
this with a group that performed flying tricks to earn money.
Wiley Post then decided the only way to become a good pilot was to buy an airplane of his own. He needed more money than he earned in the flying show. He went to work in the oil-producing areas of Texas. But he damaged his left eye in an accident. Doctors had to get rid of his eye. Judging distance is difficult without two eyes. Wiley Post began teaching himself to judge distance with only one eye. It took a long time, but he succeeded. In 1928, he got a job flying the plane that belonged to a rich oil producer from Oklahoma called F.C.Hall. In 1930, Post entered the National Air Races in this plane and won.
On June 23, 1931, Wiley Post and Gatty had flown around the world. But many people said Gatty was the real hero. He had guided the flight. This hurt Post. Wiley Post began to plan another flight around the world. This time he would go alone.
On July 15, 1933, Post took off from Floyd Bennett Field in New York. He became the first person to fly from New York to Berlin without stopping. He had flown around the world in eighteen
hours and forty-nine minutes.
69. In 1913 Wiley Post saw _______ which forever changed his life.
A) nothing B) an airplane C) a farmer D) a famous pilot
70. Wiley Post began his career in flying and earned money by _______.
A) being a pilot B) flying a plane
C) performing flying tricks D) making a parachute
71. In order to earn more money to buy an airplane of his own, Wiley Post _______.
A) went to work in Texas B) went on doing the flying show
C) damaged his left eye D) got rid of one of his eyes
72. Who taught him to judge distance with only one eye?
A) Doctors. B) Gatty.
C) A rich oil producer. D) He himself.
73. What does the word “This” probably stand for in the sentence “This hurt Post.”?
A) Post flew F.C.Hall’s private plane. B) Post and Gatty flew together.
C) People say Gatty was the real hero. D) Post failed to plan another flight alone.
74. Which of the following is Not Correct according to the passage?
A) Post rode an airplane for the first time in 1919.
B) In 1928, Post got a job and started to fly his own airplane.
C) Post entered the National Air Races in 1930 and won.
D) In 1933, Post became the first one to fly from New York to Berlin without stopping.

Here is a report on schools in the United States of America.
1 Introduction
Some of you may wonder: What are schools in the US like? Are there more activities than schools in Hong Kong? Are there more teachers? This report aims to answer some of these questions.
2 Education system
There are two types of schools in the US: public and private schools. Students studying at public schools do not have to pay tuition fees (学费) because the schools get funding (资金) from the government. Private schools, however, have to seek their own funding, so they may charge parents a high fee.
Students in the US have three years of preschool education. They enter elementary school at the age of six. There are four different ways for them to get their high school diploma (学位证书).
3 Student-teacher ratio (比例)
In the US, the student-teacher ratio in secondary schools is about 10:1. That means each teacher has to take care of about ten students. In Hong Kong, the ratio is roughly 25:1.
4 School uniforms
Most schools in Hong Kong require students to wear uniforms with school badges (校徽) on them. Students who are improperly dressed are punished. Unlike Hong Kong, only 13% of schools in the US require students to wear uniforms.
5 Extra-curricular activities
American schools give a high priority (优先) to sports, clubs and activities. The two major sports for American students are football and basketball. Schools may sell “spirit” shirts to wear to inter-school competitions and raise money.
There are also some cultural groups such as music groups, marching bands and debate teams.
6 Conclusion
There are some differences between schools in the US and Hong Kong, but the schools in these two places have one common goal: to provide an enjoyable learning environment for students. ( ) 69. According to Section 2 of the report, what is the major difference between public and private schools in the US?
A) Students studying at public schools have to pay a higher fee.
B) Private schools do not get money from the government.
C) There are more students studying at private schools.
D) Parents prefer private schools to public schools.
( ) 70. The underlined word “them” in Section 2 refers to________.
A) American students
B) elementary schools in the US
C) high schools in the US
D) the four ways to get a high school diploma
( ) 71. The underlined word “roughly” in Section 3 means ________ .
A) already B) also
C) altogether D) about
( ) 72. ________ in the US require students to wear uniforms.
A) All of the schools B) Half of the schools
C) More than half of the schools D) Less than half of the schools
( ) 73. According to Section 5, the two major sports for American students are ________.
A) football and volleyball B) football and basketball
C) basketball and cycling D) football and skating
( ) 74. According to the conclusion of the report, schools in the US and Hong Kong _____.
A) are completely different
B) get funding from the government
C) want to create a good learning environment
D) do not have any common goals

上海市2017高考英语试卷(精校)及参考答案
2017年上海高考英语真题试卷_上海市2017高考英语试卷及参考答案 第二部分：阅读理解（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分, 满分30分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Attending college can be expensive, and applying to college can be costly as well. With today’s college application fees averaging around $ 80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school. One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. To save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2-3 reach schools and 2-3 safety schools. At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application. If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you’ re qualified for it. Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions. This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the application information. Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sure to contact the schools to I j which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in that state. Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program. If you are accepted, you won’t have to submit application fees to other schools. For more information regarding college applications and the fees associated with them, contact your high I school advisor or the admissions department at your school(s) of interest. 21. The passage is mainly written to______. A. introduce famous universities in the United Stales B. show some practical ways to apply an ideal college C. advertise for successful applications and advisors D. offer tips to save money on college application fees 22. What does the author advise to do in the second paragraph？ A. Write down your favorite universities. B. Reduce the number of your university choices. C. Apply to two universities each time. D. Mind your safety when applying to college. 23. Some schools offer free online application to______, A. receive fees faster than before B. employ someone else to work C. cut down the cost of employment D. enter the application information 24. It can be known from the passage that______, A. application fee might be canceled conditionally

2017年上海各区二模说明文汇编 【徐汇区】 青花瓷之美 李清舫 ①中国青花瓷除了众所周知的流光溢彩的外观造型美之外，还有二美可以一说。 ②其一是兼收并蓄的绘画意境美。青花瓷画继承沿袭了中国传统水墨画的表现技法，但又不拘泥于它的绘画程式，相反地善于灵活自如地运用多种笔法，形成刚柔相济、动静相结、疏密相间的艺术效果，因而能在瓷器的器型上，表现出完全不同于宣纸上的那种色调明快、蓝白相映的鲜明风格，给人以强烈的视觉冲击力和魅力蕴藉的审美感受。 ③从形式上来看，青花瓷画突破了宣纸等介质的束缚，在光滑有弧度的瓷胎上作画虽然增加了难度，但也赋予了青花瓷器独特的艺术mèi（）力，表现出具有灵动率真的审美内涵。青花瓷器上的水墨画画法精细、墨色层次鲜明，立体感强，达到“墨分五色”的高超境界，给人以疏朗清新、幽静雅致的艺术美感，令人倾心迷恋。 ④从内容上来看，青花瓷画丰富并提升了中国水墨画反映生活的广度，洋溢着浓郁的生活气息。如传世民窑中最常见的青花“双喜纹罐”，图案简练活泼，风格清丽洒脱，那粗犷的“双喜”大字与茂密的缠枝花纹有机地融汇一体，不仅能给民间的婚嫁喜事增添喜庆吉祥的色彩，而且也反映了普通百姓对幸福生活的无限憧憬和质朴淳厚的审美情趣。 ⑤青花瓷画还拓展了中国水墨画在揭示民族特性上的深度，表现出了具有民族文化色彩的审美内涵，呈现出不同的意境。“龙”是中华民族的图腾，但是，“龙”的形象在中国水墨画中刻划得较为少见，而与之形成鲜明反差的是，“龙”的矫健身姿与丰满形象却在青花瓷画中屡见不鲜。其中既有纹饰繁缛、工艺豪华精美，刻画出一种神秘威严狞厉美的官窑青花龙纹瓷器；也有线条简朴，手法夸张奔放，刻划出一种随和亲切平易美的民窑青花龙纹瓷器。 ⑥青花瓷画注重______________，突出____________，挖掘_____________，因此青花瓷千百年来长盛不衰，具有独特审美价值。 ⑦其二为秀外慧中的人文精神美。和我国传统诗词、书画等许多艺术一样，青花瓷器富有鲜明的民族特色和深厚的文化底蕴。历代能工巧匠将源远流长的中华民族性格和民族感情，自觉地溶入青花瓷器的外观造型与图案绘画中，寄寓了中华民族最传统的审美观念与审美情怀。因此青花瓷器除了实用、欣赏之功能外，还浸透了中国人的精、气、神以及淳厚的人文理想。

III. Reading Comprehension Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A doctor? How about an ice-cream taster? Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice-cream. Just ask John Harrison, an “Official Taste Tester” for the past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product’s quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for approving large quantities of the sweet ice cream — as well as for developing over 75 flavors (味道). Some people think that it would be easy to do this job, after all, you just have to like ice cream, right? No —there’s more to the job than that, says Harrison, who has a degree in chemistry. He points out that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone wanting a career in this “cool” field. In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses 60 ice-cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about 12℉. Harrison explains, “You get more flavor from warmer ice cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream soup.” While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples and grades each one on its appearance. “Tasting begins with the eyes,” he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive and asks himself, “Does the product have the color expected from that flavor?” Next it’s time to taste! Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors, and test samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison busy but happy — working at one cool job. 65. What is John Harrison’s job? A. An official. B. An ice-cream taster. C. A chemist. D. An ice-cream manufacturer.

IV. Summary Writing Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible. Wilderness Therapy When most people hear the term “psychotherapy”, they picture traditional talk therapy –someone sitting on a couch or chair talking about their troubling thoughts and feelings with a psychologist or other mental health professional. However, talk therapy isn’t the only type of psychotherapy used to help individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, and a whole host of other challenging disorders, emotional struggles, and other types of problems. In reality, therapy takes place in all kinds of settings. One of them is wilderness therapy. When the campsite is set up and the fire is lit, the doctor is in. Wilderness therapy is a successful, and sometimes controversial (有争议的) way to help troubled youth by teaching life and social skills on the hiking trail. Intensive group therapy and one-on-one sessions are coupled with outdoor activities like mountain climbing and fly-fishing to teach self-reliance and responsibility. Programs promise to reform even the most wayward (任性的) of offenders, including teens with depression, anger management issues, or eating disorders. While wilderness therapy can be effective, certain methods have come under fire for using unethical, and sometimes abusive (施虐的) techniques to help struggling youth. Wilderness programs are loosely regulated, so not all programs are staffed by qualified professionals. Upon closer examination, some “therapy” groups seemed to be just military-style boot camps with little mental health benefit. Even legal wilderness therapy groups have been criticized for partnering with teen escort (陪同) companies to forcibly remove unwilling participants from their homes to attend the program. While controversy and risk exist, wilderness therapy might be a creative way to teach life skills when other methods have failed. Keys: Wildness therapy is a kind of psychotherapy, which is a successful one with argument. It is aimed to reform youths in trouble by having them get involved in outdoor activities. It is criticized/blamed for some of its methods, lack of professional staff and not being mentally
