31、r, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.

BA new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults

35、 live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy love (早戀) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression . The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.The possible reason for the connection between love and h

36、igher risk of depression for girls is “l(fā)oss of self”.

Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hidi

37、ng their feelings and opinions. They wont tell that to their parents.Dr Marian Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression. She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During
