21、How to Overcome Anxiety

Anxiety is a healthy and normal emotion that everyone often feels. Anxiety may, however, develop into a mental disorder that reduces your capacity to cope with daily stress. When trying to overcome it, you should not try to get rid of your feelings of anxiety but should aim to develop your coping abilities when you do feel anxiety.【1】. Here come some useful tips to develop your anti-anxiety abilities.

Examine your anxiety

【2】. Do not start beating yourself up about it, or tell yourself unhelpful things such as “I will never be able to get out of this” or “I am incapable.” Understand that you can overcome this, and you will.

Identify the source of your anxiety

Whether you have a panic attack or a sudden round of worry and fear, it is important to determine what is causing your anxiety. Is something in your environment the primary source?【3】

Determine if your worry is solvable

If you know what your fear is, the next step is to determine if it is something you can deal with, or something that only time can manage. If your fear is largely imagination or can’t be dealt with now,【4】.If your worry is something that needs to be dealt with, take steps to create a course of action.

【5】

If your fear is mind-consuming, take a moment to think about the honest and absolute worst thing that could happen as a result of it. Perhaps you’re getting ready to do a huge presentation, and you begin to panic. Stop and think “what is the worst that could happen?” No matter how creative your response may be, thinking critically will lead to find that should it occur, there are few endings that can’t be dealt with in a reasonable manner.

A．Consider the worst

B．Think out of the box

C．Understand and acknowledge that you are anxious

D．make the conscious effort to put it out of your mind

E．You can handle anxiety more easily when you are clear about what it is

F．Having the ability to cope with anxious thought is the key to overcoming it

G．try whatever it takes to solve the problem because you cannot get away with it

22、   Do you know what makes you happy? Write a list of all the things that make you happy. How many of them are fun? Most of them? So, if you spend your time doing all these fun things, you’ll be really happy, won’t you?

Well, maybe not. For most people, fun isn’t enough for real happiness. Paul Dolan wrote a book called Happiness by Design. 【1】 If most of the things on your list are about pleasure, that is what you think makes you happy. But you also need activities with purpose.

【2】 It’s easy to do well in subjects you like, but subjects you don’t like are less motivating. They’re not fun for you, but you have to study them so you need to find purpose. An “A” in a subject you hate won’t help the world. 【3】 Each person can study one part until they understand it and then teach it to the rest of the group. The purpose becomes helping the team.

Go back to your list of things that make you happy. 【4】 Can you add any? Remember, some activities might bring both pleasure and purpose.

Now you need to design a happy life. Paul Dolan believes people should “decide, design, do”. First decide what brings you pleasure and/or purpose -that means your two lists. 【5】 For example, you might love riding a bike but never have time to do it. So, ride to school or the library or the shops. Some parts of our lives are good or bad luck, but we can still design the rest to make more happiness.

A.But can you be part of a study team with friends?

B.How many of them are activities that bring purpose?

C.There are different ways we can find pleasure in things.

D.He thinks happiness comes from both pleasure and purpose.

E.If you’re a student, your “job” is studying and passing exams.

F.If you think something makes you happy, then it makes you happy.

G.Then, don’t just think about these activities, fill your life with them.

23、   Have you ever sat down in a restaurant and felt instantly drawn to a particular dish on the menu? The reason might be something as simple as that you love the dish's main ingredient, but it's often more than that.

Scientists are finding that the way food is presented can make a big difference. In one study, for example, party guests were given a glass of a drink called mango lassi. Half the guests were told the lassi was healthy. The rest were told it was unhealthy. Those who had the “healthy” drink considered it 55% less enjoyable than those who drank the “unhealthy” one, though the drinks were exactly the same.

People's choices around what to eat are influenced by lots of small factors unconsciously. But we can make those choices more conscious by arming ourselves with information.

Agriculture accounts for about 25% of all greenhouse gas emissions (排放) warming the planet. But not all foods have equal influences. Globally, the production of animal-based foods accounts for about two-thirds of agricultural emissions, while plant-based foods generally have lower environmental influences.

Increasing the share of plant-based foods in our diets is therefore a key step in reducing agriculture's pressure on climate. That doesn't mean giving up meat, though. We can eat less animal-based food and more plants.

By examining how food decisions are made, scientists have learned that simple pushes can change people's behavior in big ways. Restaurants, hotels, universities, and even cities have begun applying the latest behavioral science to help consumers cut their carbon footprint by choosing more sustainable (可持续的) foods. Burger King began a trial of the plant-based Impossible Burger. At Seattle Pacific University, campus food service provider Sodexo doubled the size of its plant-rich food station.

【1】Accordign to scientists, people tend to choose some food or drink mainly because _______.

A.it’s good for their health B.it’s good for the environment

C.they are attracted by its color D.they like its ingredient and how it’s presented

【2】What can we infer about animal-based foods?

A.They are harmful to the environment.

B.They are the main reason for climate change.

C.They provide more nutrients than plant-based foods.

D.They are less consumed compared to plant-based foods.

【3】What does the author suggest people do?

A.Pay attention to how food is cooked.

B.Choose healthy foods to live a longer life.

C.Consider climate change when deciding what to eat.

D.Give up meat to reduce pressure on the environment.

【4】What does the last paragraph focus on?

A.Burger King's new plant-based burgers.

B.Scientists' new findings on people's food decisions.

C.How consumers' food decisions are influenced by small factors.

D.The society's efforts to help people make eco-friendly food decisions.

24、A student named Bruce sent me an email. He said, “My parents promised me a trip to California Disneyland if I get good grades in the final exams. 【1】. Why do adults connect everything with school grades?”

The following are my tips about his problem:

I understand your problem, and this must be frustrating to hear. Studies are important in a young person’s life. 【2】. However, too much stress could have a negative influence on your mood and even how you perform at school.

For the time being, it is best to have a positive attitude. 【3】. However, if you feel that your parents are putting you under too much pressure, then be honest and tell them how you feel. This way in the future when you have more exams, they will be less likely to put you in such an awkward situation, in which your results directly determine how they treat you.

【4】 if you explain to them your annoyance and how the added stress will be counter-productive (产生反效果的) for your exam performance.

It may be a long time since your parents were at school so they may find it difficult to understand your situation. I remember the days when I endlessly studied for exams, worrying before the big day came. 【5】, instead of worrying about the future consequences of any result. As a general rule for exams, try to make sure you have a schedule that allows you time to relax. I found this incredibly useful in helping me keep focused.

Be honest with your parents. At the end of the day, you are still fortunate enough that you have the chance of a trip after the exams are over.

A．But if I don’t, they will cancel the trip

B．Don’t expect much from them

C．I always found it best to focus on the task at hand

D．Your parents want to reward you for your hard work

E．I feel full of confidence and so open to possibilities

F．They may think differently about how they offer motivation

G．Try and let this potential reward motivate you if you can
