五、阅读理解(每小题2分,共8分)
① Do you have trouble sharing your thoughts or worry no one will listen if you do? Finding the words to explain how you feel isn’t always easy.
② Making your voice heard means understanding that your words matter and your opinions count. Dr Julia Clements is a psychologist (an expert in thoughts and feelings). She says speaking up means “expressing your views, thoughts and feelings, not hiding open to hearing the thoughts, feelings and views of others too”.
③ Making yourself heard isn’t about shouting the loudest. “In fact, you don’t have to use your voice at all. You can express what you like and don’t like or what you want for the future by writing or drawing instead,” says Clements. “It is about finding ways to share what matters to you,” she explains.
④ Sharing your feelings with a person you trust will help you make sense of them. Scientists discover that sharing your feelings triggers (触发) a feel-good chemistry (物质的化学组成) in your brain. The chemistry makes you feel relaxed and calm. Your voice can make a big difference to other people too, including friends and family. Jaime Thurston does volunteer (志愿者) work as well. She gives kindness lessons in schools. She tells the students, “You can spread kindness and happiness simply by speaking. With a few kind words, you could help someone feel good about themselves.”
Clements suggests practising conversations with friends or parents on the way home and seeing if you have different opinions about something. If you’re hard to explain your feelings, find a way that feels right for you, such as writing it down. “When you’re ready, take a deep breath and believe in yourself,” says Thurston. “Know that your opinion matters.”
