It’s important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. ②First, we should try organizing our problems from most important to least important as well as most urgent (紧急的) to least urgent. If some problems are both important and urgent, such as studying for a next-day test, do those tasks first. Once those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent, such as preparing for the final exams. From there, we can work on problems that are less important. Organizing our work this way helps a lot in knowing what to do first and not worrying about the rest. Or we might easily feel overwhelmed with so much work to do. ③Still, sometimes we feel overwhelmed even after organizing our work. If so, we can try to fit some exercise into our weekly plan. It doesn’t even have to be a big trip to the gym (体育馆). ④Finally, we can try to think deeply in silence. Again, this does not need to be anything special. Just set aside 10 to 20 minutes with a timer, close our eyes, and focus (集中) only on breathing. If other ideas come up, accept that they are there and let them fall away on their own. ⑤By trying these steps, we will go a long way toward feeling relaxed and peaceful when finishing all the work. 23.

Bigger kids bullied (欺凌) him when he was young. They threw away Meta’s books and pencils. No one would like to hang out with him as he was new there in the school. He was also named “the dwarf (小矮人)” by them. As he grew up, Meta thought himself not so good and perhaps he was different from those who were popular. But then, Jason was born. Jason is Meta’s brother. He’s also quite short. Meta started to be worried. Would his brother face the same problem that Meta faced? “I didn’t want him to doubt himself ... but how could he do that if he was in the same place? ” And so, he started to ask himself, “In what ways am I strong?” He practiced soccer every day and watched hundreds of soccer games to learn how to play it well from the soccer players. Now, he is one of the most important soccer players in his school team. There were many kinds of gold medals (奖牌) he won from the competitions. He made a lot of friends because he came to understand that one’s success doesn’t depend only on one’s size. It is one’s character and abilities that make one strong and special. Meta once regarded himself as a small kid from a small town. Actually, Meta said, he should see himself as a young man from a place rich in culture, talent and strong spirit. 19.

It’s important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. ②First, we should try organizing our problems from most important to least important as well as most urgent (紧急的) to least urgent. If some problems are both important and urgent, such as studying for a next-day test, do those tasks first. Once those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent, such as preparing for the final exams. From there, we can work on problems that are less important. Organizing our work this way helps a lot in knowing what to do first and not worrying about the rest. Or we might easily feel overwhelmed with so much work to do. ③Still, sometimes we feel overwhelmed even after organizing our work. If so, we can try to fit some exercise into our weekly plan. It doesn’t even have to be a big trip to the gym (体育馆). ④Finally, we can try to think deeply in silence. Again, this does not need to be anything special. Just set aside 10 to 20 minutes with a timer, close our eyes, and focus (集中) only on breathing. If other ideas come up, accept that they are there and let them fall away on their own. ⑤By trying these steps, we will go a long way toward feeling relaxed and peaceful when finishing all the work. 23.

According to the writer, which of the following helps to solve problems? ________ A. Solving the less urgent things first. B. Working on problems together. C. Having a trip to the nature. D. Thinking deeply in silence. 26. What’s the structure (结构) of the passage? ________ A. B. C. D. Have you ever imagined what life will be like in 2060?
