浙江省金华市2019-2020学年八年级下学期英语期中测试卷（外研版）（含听力音频）
What would you do if you felt anxious (焦虑的)? Would you feel better if someone else could share his or her experiences with you? In the United States, two teenage girls set up a mental health camp called "Healing (治愈) Hearts" to help people deal with anxiety.
The idea of creating the camp came from Dinah Martinez, 17, and her schoolmate Janet Martinez, 18. Both girls suffered from anxiety.
Dinah Martinez always did well in school. "But then I just started to collapse (崩溃)" Dinah Martinez said. She stopped talking to her friends, stopped going to school for three weeks and stayed at home.
Janet Martinez was anxious in elementary school. Things got even worse in junior high. "It was a lot of pressure (压力) I put on myself. I would wake up in the morning and it was like my heart was racing," she said.
The girls' camp idea got support from Girls Leading Our World (GLOW) in the US. The organization awarded them $5,000 to put on the camp for other teenage girls.
The "Healing Hearts" camp was created to "help deal with anxiety, especially with girls in high school because that's when they are the most vulnerable (脆弱的) ,"Janet Martinez said.
On the first day of the camp, 10 girls were there. Experts at the camp talked about anxiety. They helped girls who were experiencing anxiety. The girls learned how to calm themselves when they are anxious. They learned about calming methods like deep breathing and guided mediation (调节).
"It's good to know that someone else is going through the same thing as me and we can both help each other out," Dinah Martinez said.
