Many social media posts(社交媒体帖子) may let you believe that everyone is happy all the time, but being happy all the time is not possible.
As a teenager, you probably expected to get good grades in an exam or to win the most important basketball game, but it didn't happen. Good results make you happy and bad results make you sad. But sadness can drive you to improve yourself next time.
However, when people get into sadness for a long time and it starts to affect(影响) their lives, it's called depression (抑郁). You don't want to get out of bed. You don't feel like studýing or going out with your friends. I remember the same feeling when my dog Rebel died in an accident. I remember that he followed me to school. Now he was gone, and I lost all interests to do anything.
My parents told me dogs don't live forever. What was more, Rebel had a good life. If Ihad a good life, Rebel must be happy, too.
Depression is not a person's mistake. It's normal to feel sad sometimes. Many great people, like the comedy actor Jim Carrey, once get depressed. But you should know what to do to stop depression or make yourself less depressed.
When you feel down, you must not keep yourself away from the world. Try to share your feelings with a family member or a good friend. Staying at home by yourself will make you more lonely. You should stand up, open the window, and throw away (抛弃) the sadness.
Amanda's report I went on a holiday on the beach this summer holiday. My brother and I played volleyball and built castles(城堡) on the beach. At the end of the summer holiday, my parents took me to the water park and we went swimming. It was really fun. I hope to have another holiday like that. |
Maxwell's report I went on a car trip with my dad this summer holiday. We drove a long way. I read a book called The Hardy Boys on the way. It was an exciting story. I went to a summer camp with my best friend too. I had a busy, tiring but great holiday. |
Rui's report This summer holiday my family went to Britain. We stayed in a hotel in London. On the first day we enjoyed a full English breakfast at the hotel. Then we travelled around London on a red double-decker(双层的) bus. In the afternoon we visited the Tower of London. On the second day we visited the Buckingham Palace and looked at the famous Elizabeth Tower. At lunch we tried fish and chips and we liked it. In the afternoon we walked down Oxford Street and Regent Street and stopped in Trafalgar Square. The next morning we went to Madame Tussaud's Museum by subway. It was our last day of London travel. |
