Nowadays, more and more companies are beginning to take notice of their employees' mental health.

However、 there's still much that could be done.

When a woman named Madalyn Parker decided to take a couple of mental health days, she let her team

know by e-mail. What surprised her was the reaction of her company's CEO, who reached out with a message.The

woman, who goes by the username @ madalynrose on X, shared the original e-mail and the response, which dates

back to 2017. “Hey, team, I'm takıng today and tomorrow off to focus on my mental health. Hopefully, I should be

back next week refreshed and back to 100%,” reads her message.

Knowing the importance of mental health, Parker has made efforts to speak out clearly about it, hoping to

inspire her coworkers to do the same. “I'm specific to be an example. so my team knows that they can feel

comfortable taking sick leave for mental health, even if they don't say it,” she later added.

Many managers would be somewhat hesitant about her choice. But Parker's boss, Ben Congleton,

completely supported her and thanked her for her transparency ( 透明). “I just wanted to personally thank you for

using e-mails like this. Every time you do. I use it as a reminder of the importance of using sick days for mental

health —— I cannot believe it`s not a standard practice at all organizations,” he wrote. “You are an example to us

all, and help cut through the stigma (耻辱) so we can all bring our whole selves to work.”

Today, Parker continues her mission to put mental health at the forefront. She is a Senior Engineer working

on the Accessibility Insights team at Microsoft, where she builds Open Source tools that make it easier to know if

an app is accessible during development.

Young families with children are a shrinking( 缩小 ) part of the US population. The decline is especially

pronounced in major urban cities, including Boston, San Francisco, New York, and so on. Americans aged 25 to

44 —— the years when people typically start families —— are increasingly moving to rural counties and small

cities.

Actually, besides property tax payments, young families contribute to the economy by spending on

housing, groceries, child care, health care, recreation, and education. They help generate stable jobs in sectors

such as education, health care, and hospitality. By participating in local events, young families help develop a

sense of belonging and strengthen cities’ social fabric. Neighborhoods with young families tend to have lower

crime rates due to parents' investment in their children's safety and well-being.

Why are these families leaving large cities? There' re many reasons, including high costs of living and

housing, quality of education and school systems, and environmental and health factors.

But some cities are going against this trend. For example, Austin, Texas, has become a major tech center in

recent years, with many companies relocating or expanding there and creating jobs. Austin's relatively low cost of

living, strong public school system, and lots of parks and recreational activities make it a destination that's often

highly rated for families. Raleigh, North Carolina, is another popular draw for young families with children. It

offers a strong job market in technology, health care, and education and affordable housing.

Overall, families with children consider many factors in choosing a place to live. Affordable and family-

friendly housing is usually a top priority. Cities seeking to attract families could prioritize developing affordable

single-family homes, townhomes, and apartments with family-friendly features, such as common play spaces.

Another priority for attracting and retaining young families is well-funded public schools with excellent teachers,

and resources. Most cities don't have the resources to pursue all of these goals at once. But picking one or two as

targets is a good way to move forward.

8. What can we learn about young families from paragraph 2?

A. They form the backbone of cities.

B. They like the high quality of city life.

C. Big cities are more suitable for them.

D. City life is a heavy burden for them.

9. Why does the author mention Austin?

A. To make a comparison with Raleigh. B. To show its family-friendly features.

C. To predict its population shrinkage. D. To explain the importance of big cities.

10. What does the author convey in the last paragraph?

A. Urban resources are being overused now.

B. City construction should be slowed down.

C. Young families tend to live in small cities.

D. Measures should be taken for young families.

11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?

A. Urban Life of Young Families B. Rise of Rural Child-Raising

C. Decline in City Young Families D. family-Friendly City Strategies
