26、Have you ever met large chances in life and work? How would you feel in most cases? In fact, we all have to go through the grief cycle (悲伤周期) which has the following periods.

The first period: “It can’t be happening.”

Anger: “Why me? It’s not fair.”

Depression (抑都): “I’m so sad. Why do I have to do all of these?”

Acceptance (接受): “It’s going to be OK.”

I’m honestly not sure how scientific this model is, but recently believe that you will work better after going through these major changes.

Find out what your anger does for you — good or bad?

What does being angry do for you? Think back to the situation where you have been angry at work and ask yourself how it influences you, including: your relationship with co-workers, the quality (质量) of your work and health, how you feel outside of work, your relationship with friends and family.

Find out what makes you angrier and less angry.

What makes you angrier? Which thoughts, situations, people or conversations set you off? And what makes you less angry? I’m sure you are not angry all the time. What makes you calm and stops you from feeling angry? Find out. Then start doing less of what makes you angry and more of the things that cool you down.

Focus on gratitude.

What are you grateful for? As I mentioned above, anger is part of the grief cycle which is connected with what you lose. Gratitude is the opposite of loss because it comes from the good things you have in your life. It’s simple. Every evening, sit down with a piece of paper and make two gratitude lists: three things I was grateful for at work today; three things I was thankful for in life today.

Change your focus from “What was done to me” to “What I can do”.

I know this is the basic piece of all self-help advice. Life is 10% about what happens to you and 90% about how you deal with it, or you must take responsibility for your own situation, rather than be a victim (牺牲品) of it. That kind of advice can get pretty boring. But that doesn’t make it less true.

【1】Why does the writer begin the text by asking questions?

A．To explain facts.

B．To express disagreement.

C．To give opinions.

D．To catch the readers’ interest.

【2】What’s the writer’s suggestion about dealing with anger?

A．Love friends and family.

B．Do things that make you peaceful.

C．Be friendly to co-workers

D．Write down what makes you angry.

【3】What does the underlined word “gratitude” most probably mean?

A．Thanks.

B．Safety.

C．Courage.

D．Pride.

【4】Which of the following best describes the last piece of advice?

A．Creative.

B．Special.

C．Useful.

D．Useless.

27、If parents’ aim(目标) is only to make a child be a genius(天才), they will cause a disaster. Several leading educational psychologists(心理学家) say this is one of the biggest mistakes that can cause great problems to children.

However, if parents are a little gentler, the child may act successfully—especially if the parents can support him. Michael Li is very lucky. He is very fond of music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and inviting a teacher to give him personal piano lessons. They even drive him 59 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Although Michael’s mother knows very little about music, Michael’s father plays the piano very well. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling.

Michael’s friend, Winston Chen, however, is not so lucky. Although both his parents are successful musicians(音乐家), they set too high a standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are, so they enter him in every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. “When I was your age, I used to win every competition I entered,” Winston’s father tells him. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint(使…失望) his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.

【1】 One of the worst mistakes any parent can make is to __________.

A. pay much attention to their child’s education

B. push the child into trying to achieve too much

C. make their child become a musician

D. help their child to succeed in the future

【2】Michael Li is lucky because __________.

A. his father knows music and teaches him much

B. his parents are rich enough to support him

C. his mother doesn’t know much about music

D. his parents help him in a wise way

【3】The two examples show that __________.

A. it is important to let children develop in their own way

B. it is successful to let children develop without others’ help

C. successful parents often have unsuccessful children

D. the more you help your children, the less they can achieve
