If you feel stressed at school,what can you do to make
yourself happier?Some may eat their favourite food or listen
to some music.Others may go for a walk or get some exer-
cise.A new study found another great way to lower students'
stress-playing with dogs.
Scientists studied 105 students between the ages of eight
and nine.35 trained dogs and their trainers also took part in
the test.The children were divided into 3 groups.The students
in the first group spent 20 minutes with a dog and its trainer.
They watched the trained dogs perform and even played with
them.They did this twice a week for 4 weeks.The second
group spent the same amount of time()doing exercise to
relax.The last group did neither of these things.
During this time,the scientists recorded the students'
cortisol levels(皮质醇水平).Cortisol is a stress hormone(激
)The more stressed you feel,the more cortisol you will
have in your body.What did the scientists find?Both the sec-
ond and third groups showed rises in cortisol levels.The first
group,however,showed no big increase.And the children in
this group had the lowest cortisol levels right after playing
with the dogs.
According to the study,students enjoy playing with dogs,
and it helps them become happier.The stress hormone falls
over time this way,which is good for students'health.But
here comes the next question:Is 20 minutes of playtime with a
dog the best amount of time?Scientists are going to keep
working to find out the answer.

Anger is a kind of feeling.36 When your teacher gives
you too much homework,or when your team loses an impor-
tant game,or when a friend borrows your favourite thing and
then breaks it,you may get angry.37 For example,your
face turns red,and you may want to break something or hit
someone.But sometimes you hide your anger.For example,
you may hide it in your heart.The problem is that if you do
this,you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.
In fact,it's not good to hide your anger,and it's natural
for you to get angry sometimes.38 When you get angry,
you can talk about it with other adults,such as parents and
teachers.39 Here are some other things you can do when
you start to feel angry:count from 1 to 100,give someone a
hug(拥抱),go for a bike ride or think about good things.
When you are angry,how you act can make everything
better or worse.40

第三节
How to control emotions has always been a diffi-
cult problem for people to solve.When we are angry,
we are easy to lose control and say dirty words.As a
result,we may hurt others.Emotion control helps us
to deal with things better and feel happier.Here are
some simple ways.Firstly,try to breathe deeply when
you feel worried.Secondly,when you feel angry,try
to close your eyes and slowly count to 10.Thirdly,
find a quiet place when you feel crazy and try to write
in a diary,draw or dance.Fourthly,talk to good
friends or your parents,and fifthly,do something re-
laxing,such as listening to music,reading or playing.

How to deal with our stress and worry
Good morning,my dear classmates and friends.
It's my honor to speak here,and today my topic is
“How to deal with our stress and worry”.
It's not easy being our age.In Grade Eight,we
have more subjects and harder exams.Making new
friends is also difficult.Too much stress makes us
tired,sad and unable to sleep.It even hurts our bodies
and minds.There are some suggestions.First,talk to
parents or teachers-They'll always help.Second,do
sports like running or playing basketball to relax.
Third,listen to music or read books when we feel
down.I believe if we follow these suggestions,our
stress and worry will slowly go away.
That's all.Thanks for listening.
