I comforted myself, thinking, “At least I have a hiking trip with Olivia to look forward to.” Later, Olivia told me she had to visit her uncle’s beach house, so our hiking trip was canceled(取消). “I’m sorry,” she said. I forced a smile(强颜欢笑), but my heart sank. It felt like all my fun plans were gone. Feeling disappointed, I saw our neighbour, Mrs. Daisy, in her garden. Hoping to forget my sadness, I offered to help her water the flowers. As I watered, Mrs. Daisy noticed my quiet mood. “Nora,” she said gently, “we must be careful about what we choose to nourish. If we water harmful plants or bad feelings, they will grow. But if we water beautiful flowers or good thoughts, that’s what we will get.” “I know,” I sighed (叹了口气), “but it’s hard to stop feeling sad.” “First, let yourself feel your feelings,” she advised. “Then, try to feed your mind with something positive—call a friend, go for a run, or just enjoy a beautiful flower.” I decided to take her advice. I called Olivia, shared my feelings with her, and we made a new plan to go hiking after she returned. After the call, I felt much better.

Anger may make us feel uncomfortable, but it’s seen here and there. Unluckily, many of us have been used to keeping our feelings hidden. A research suggests that this can have long-term bad influences on your health. Is it better to cry or break things whenever something makes us angry? The research points out that when we show our anger in this way, we can’t probably get on well with our friends and our family. The more time we keep being angry, the worse result we’ll get. So how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way? First, know what makes us angry. Anger is often caused by feelings of being too afraid, disappointment and so on. Also, care more about those everyday things that will make us angry. For example, we may get angry in the long lines at the store. Take a step back and think that it isn’t personal. Everyone in the line has dinner to make, just like us. One way of dealing with anger is to talk about it. The study has shown that if we name our feelings, we can slowly calm ourselves down and feel better. Take some deep breath or find some helpful exercise to do. Exercise helps with feelings of anger. If we learn to deal with anger, we will be happier and healthier. ( )1. According to the text, which of the following about anger is true? A. Few people will keep their feelings hidden. B. Anger will probably do harm to our health. C. Sometimes anger is a good feeling. D. It’s better to cry out when we are angry. ( )2. Which of the following is right? (X means the time you get angry, Y means the bad influence it will have) ( )3. Which can help deal with the feeling of anger? 1. Taking some exercise. 1. Eating delicious food. 1. Talking about the feelings. 1. Doing some controlled breathing. A. abc B. abd C. acd D.bcd ( )4. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. What makes you angry? B.
