Talk to a parent, teacher, or other trusted adults. Enjoy yourself     Besides physical activity, find other hobbies or activities that you enjoy.

Ideally (理想地), teens should get ten hours’ sleep a night. 11．Which of the following is mentioned (提到) as a cause of stress? ① Facing an unexpected life change.     ② Making an important decision. ③ Getting bored with daily life.     ④ Going through something bad.

B Anger isn’t a good feeling. Anger may make us feel uncomfortable, but it’s also a normal and natural emotion in daily life. Unluckily, many of us are used to hiding our feelings. Research shows that this can have long-term bad influences (影响) on our health, both in mind and body. 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 probably can’t get on well with our friends and our family. The longer we stay angry, the worse the result will be. So how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way? First, ▲ Anger is often caused by feelings such as fear, disappointment and so on. By finding out the true cause, we can deal with it more effectively (有效的). Second, pay attention to 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. Another way to deal with anger is to talk about it. The study shows that if we name our feelings, we can slowly calm ourselves down and feel better. Last, do some controlled breathing or find some helpful exercise to do. Exercise helps with feelings of anger. If we learn to deal with anger properly, we will feel calmer, get on better with others and live a happier life. 16．How does the writer lead into the topic in Paragraph 2? A．By telling a story. B．By asking a question. C．By giving an example. D．By listing numbers. 17．Which of the following is right? (X means how long we stay angry; Y means the bad influence it will have.)

A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①③④ D．①②④ 20．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．What makes you angry? B．Why are you angry? C．When to deal with anger D．How to deal with anger C We often wish to be happy in our daily life. But what exactly is happiness? Is it a place, or a never-ending journey? Is happiness on social media? It sure seems that way. People love sharing perfect pictures online. But going through posts on the Internet sometimes can actually make you feel worse about your life. They mislead (误导) people into thinking that others are better off. ____▲____ Also, a study shows people spending over two hours daily on social media are twice as likely to feel lonely. But what if we’re the ones posting? When we share a happy moment, we get excited, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. Happiness only lasts for so long, and when it ends, we set out looking for new happiness. And social media has made this search harder than ever. Happily, there’s still hope for us to find lasting happiness. This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and deal with emotions like anger, disappointment, fear and sadness. It’s not easy, but when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper and more meaningful connections with others. And those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer than any number of “likes” on a screen! March 20th is World Happiness Day. Take it as a reminder that trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn (独角兽)—it’s just not going to happen. Instead, focus on your own journey and accept different emotions you’ll feel along the way. 21．How does the writer start the topic in Paragraph 1? A．By asking questions. B．By giving examples. C．By comparing facts. D．By listing numbers. 22．Which of the following can be put in ____▲____? A．In this way, people can know more about others. B．In fact, using social media too much causes low spirits. C．Instead, people will take it seriously.

A．B． C． D． 24．Why does the writer mention World Happiness Day? A．To introduce a special day in March. B．To show the importance of being happy every day. C．To remind people to accept different emotions on the way to happiness. D．To encourage people to spend more time on social media on that day. 25．What is the best title for the text? A．The True Meaning of Social Media B．Happiness on Social Media C．The Search for True Happiness D．The Journey to World Happiness Day D Do you get angry when a friend borrows your favourite thing and then breaks it? Do you get angry when your team loses an important game? Do you get angry when your teacher gives you too much homework? Do you get angry when your best friend does not wait for you after school? Anger is a common feeling, and it’s important to learn to deal with it properly. First, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something. But sometimes you hide your anger. For example, you are really angry, but you may keep it to yourself. The worst thing is to do nothing but keep quiet. If you do this, maybe you will get a headache. Then what can we do when we get angry? In fact, it’s normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way. Is it better to cry or break things whenever something makes us angry? Research points out that when we show our anger in this way, we can’t probably get on well with our friends and family. The longer we stay angry, the worse the result will be. Here are some useful ways. One good way is to keep a record. Every time you get angry, write down the reasons. Besides, say how you’re feeling and why. When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people and share your problems with them like your friends and family. Lastly, do some physical activities. Doing some housework or exercise helps reduce your feeling of anger. All in all, anger is a normal feeling. The most important thing is to know it well and learn to deal with it properly. 26．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By giving examples. C．By making a survey. D．By asking questions. 27．What BIG question does paragraph 2 answer? A．Why do people get angry easily? B．How to get on well with friends? C．What your body shows when you are angry?

According to recent research, loneliness (孤独) can have harmful effects on health. So if you feel lonely at times, be sure to care about it. Here are some tips for you to avoid being lonely. Make time to meet people Maybe it seems that you don’t have time to meet new friends, but you need to consider (考虑) your social life first. 31 You can even offer to take a neighbor’s dog for a walk. The neighbor will surely like to make friends with you. 32    Without doubt, it’s difficult for you to meet like-minded people. However, the Internet can easily bring people with the same interests together. So it is easy to build an online friend community. Try some safe websites, which list local groups and events, bringing people with common interests together. Know more about your friends In order to find possible friends, try to know more about them. What do they like doing? Join one of their activities. What subject are they interested in? 33 In this way, you can know each other much better. Work as volunteers Volunteering is good for both body and mind. It gives you the chance to communicate with people. Helping at the local food store or in a charity (慈善) shop will give you a warm feeling and you’ll get to know other volunteers.   34 Plan ahead 35 Rather than just suggesting meeting together, carry it out with an exact date and a careful plan. If you plan to meet more people, making a survey about the plan ahead of time will make the meeting more successful. A．Find out more about it and discuss it with them. B．Build your community online C．There are so many ways you can talk face to face now. D．Everyone’s busy, so getting people together needs a good plan. E．It’ll also give you something to talk about with friends and family. F．Instead of checking your phone, go for a walk and chat with someone. G．If you want to meet someone, just do it! 三．选词填空（10分） 阅读短文，从方框中选出恰当的单词并用其适当形式填空，使短文通顺、意思完整。每空仅填一词，每词仅用一次。 about      joy       reduce      I      meaning although     surprisingly      little       ski         express What do students actually do for fun?

When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses 46 important game, when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then 47 (break) it, you may get really angry. Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe 48 (fast) than before, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone. But sometimes, you hide (隐藏) your anger 49 (quiet). For example, you may hide it 50 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 normal for you 51 (get) angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or 52 (you). When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. It’s 53 (help) to talk about your anger with an adult, such as a parent, a teacher, etc. When you talk about anger, those bad 54 (feeling) can start to go away. Here are some other things you can do 55 you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend, count from 1 to 100, give someone a hug (拥抱), go for a bike ride, think about good things, etc. Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse. Don’t let your anger control you. 五．阅读表达（10分） 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Growing up is never an easy journey for teenagers. Today, many students have trouble with heavy schoolwork and spend too much time on smartphones, which has become a serious social problem. To support (维护) teenagers’ mental health, schools around the world have started real-world programs. One true example is at Two Rivers High School in Mendota Heights, Minnesota, USA．The school runs a Digital Wellbeing Club in partnership with the nonprofit (非营利) Live More Screen Less. Olivia Kanavati, a junior at the school, used to be deeply addicted (对……上瘾) to her phone. She often stayed up late using social media and games, felt anxious and could not focus in class. “I would look at my screen time and realize: what am I doing with my life?” she said. Later, Olivia joined the Digital Wellbeing Club. There, students learn to plan their screen time and real life properly. Now she spends free time more meaningfully. She reads in the school library, draws with friends, and joins art and music activities after class. She also talks more openly with her family and teachers when she feels stressed. She spends less than 2 hours on the phones each week now. Olivia has become a more confident and outgoing girl bit by bit. She understands that growing up means not just study progress, but also a healthy mind and real-world connections. With school and community support, teenagers like Olivia can grow up better and face life bravely. 56．Is growing up an easy journey for teenagers? 57．Why have many schools around the world started real-world programs? 58．Where does Olivia read to spend her free time more meaningfully after class now? 59．How long does Olivia use the phone each week now? 60．What is Olivia like now? 六．书面表达（10分） 61． 假如你是校英文广播站的一名主持人，为配合学校”阳光心灵月”活动，你计划制作一期主题为”Hobbies help with emotions”的节目。请根据以下提示，并结合自己的经历与体会，写一篇英文广播稿，向同学们介绍如何通过爱好管理情绪，拥抱健康快乐的生活。 Hobbies help with emotions 要求： 1.包含提示内容，可适当发挥； 2.词数70左右(开头和尾已给出，不计入总词数)。 Welcome to today’s English radio program.

Make time to meet people Maybe it seems that you don’t have time to meet new friends, but you need to consider (考虑) your social life first. 31 You can even offer to take a neighbor’s dog for a walk. The neighbor will surely like to make friends with you. 32    Without doubt, it’s difficult for you to meet like-minded people. However, the Internet can easily bring people with the same interests together. So it is easy to build an online friend community. Try some safe websites, which list local groups and events, bringing people with common interests together. Know more about your friends In order to find possible friends, try to know more about them. What do they like doing? Join one of their activities. What subject are they interested in? 33 In this way, you can know each other much better. Work as volunteers Volunteering is good for both body and mind. It gives you the chance to communicate with people. Helping at the local food store or in a charity (慈善) shop will give you a warm feeling and you’ll get to know other volunteers.   34 Plan ahead 35 Rather than just suggesting meeting together, carry it out with an exact date and a careful plan. If you plan to meet more people, making a survey about the plan ahead of time will make the meeting more successful. A．Find out more about it and discuss it with them. B．Build your community online C．There are so many ways you can talk face to face now. D．Everyone’s busy, so getting people together needs a good plan.

Today, many students have trouble with heavy schoolwork and spend too much time on smartphones, which has become a serious social problem. To support (维护) teenagers’ mental health, schools around the world have started real-world programs. One true example is at Two Rivers High School in Mendota Heights, Minnesota, USA．The school runs a Digital Wellbeing Club in partnership with the nonprofit (非营利) Live More Screen Less. Olivia Kanavati, a junior at the school, used to be deeply addicted (对……上瘾) to her phone. She often stayed up late using social media and games, felt anxious and could not focus in class. “I would look at my screen time and realize: what am I doing with my life?” she said. Later, Olivia joined the Digital Wellbeing Club. There, students learn to plan their screen time and real life properly. Now she spends free time more meaningfully. She reads in the school library, draws with friends, and joins art and music activities after class. She also talks more openly with her family and teachers when she feels stressed. She spends less than 2 hours on the phones each week now. Olivia has become a more confident and outgoing girl bit by bit. She understands that growing up means not just study progress, but also a healthy mind and real-world connections. With school and community support, teenagers like Olivia can grow up better and face life bravely. 56．Is growing up an easy journey for teenagers? 57．Why have many schools around the world started real-world programs? 58．Where does Olivia read to spend her free time more meaningfully after class now? 59．How long does Olivia use the phone each week now? 60．What is Olivia like now? 六．书面表达（10分） 61． 假如你是校英文广播站的一名主持人，为配合学校”阳光心灵月”活动，你计划制作一期主题为”Hobbies help with emotions”的节目。请根据以下提示，并结合自己的经历与体会，写一篇英文广播稿，向同学们介绍如何通过爱好管理情绪，拥抱健康快乐的生活。 Hobbies help with emotions 要求： 1.包含提示内容，可适当发挥； 2.词数70左右(开头和尾已给出，不计入总词数)。 Welcome to today’s English radio program.

When you enter a competition or draw a picture, you can forget your worries. If you keep in low spirits, think about your achievements. Your parents are always proud of you, 10 you’re not perfect. In a word, learning to deal with emotions is important. By following these tips, you can stay positive and enjoy life better! 1．A．excited B．mad C．positive D．relaxed 2．A．results B．orders C．scores D．emotions 3．A．decided B．repeated C．behaved D．followed 4．A．purpose B．fault C．plan D．standard 5．A．Pushing B．Encouraging C．Forgiving D．Believing 6．A．cry B．advise C．control D．apologize 7．A．thankful B．helpful C．harmful D．painful 8．A．matters B．cares C．clears D．inspires 9．A．Sadly B．Lastly C．Nervously D．Luckily 10．A．if B．when C．though D．until 【答案】1．C 2．D 3．C 4．B 5．C 6．D 7．A 8．A 9．B 10．C 【导语】本文介绍了处理负面情绪的三种方法：与人沟通（包括换位思考、原谅或道歉）、看到事物积极的一面、保持活跃做喜欢的事，从而保持积极心态。 【详解】1．句意：但是如何应对这些情绪并保持积极？ 根据上文列出负面情绪，下文给出建议，空格应填与“负面”相反的词。positive“积极的”符合语境。excited侧重兴奋，与情绪管理无关；mad为负面词；relaxed虽可但不如positive直接对应主题“保持积极”。 2．句意：首先，当你有了负面情绪，不要把自己封闭起来。 上文“Emotions are a normal part of our lives”及本句“negative”提示填emotions。results“结果”、orders“命令”、scores“分数”均与情绪无关。 3．句意：试着换位思考，理解他们为什么那样表现。 朋友说了伤人的话，理解其行为原因。behaved“表现”符合。decided“决定”需接宾语；repeated“重复”与语境无关；followed“跟随”搭配不当。 4．句意：如果是他们的过错，原谅他们并温和地建议。 上文“hurtful”“not on purpose”暗示过错。fault“过错”正确。purpose“目的”、plan“计划”、standard“标准”均不合。 5．句意：原谅他人不仅帮助减少一半的愤怒，还让你成为善良的人。 上文“forgive them”直接提示Forgiving。Pushing、Encouraging、Believing均无法对应“原谅”。 6．句意：如果你错了，要真诚地道歉。 与前文“如果是对方的过错则原谅”形成对比，自己错了应道歉。apologize正确。cry“哭”、advise“建议”、control“控制”不符。 7．句意：即使没有获奖，要为你获得的经验而感激。 上文“look on the bright side”，从失败中找到值得感激之处。thankful“感激的”正确。helpful“有帮助的”主语常为物；harmful/painful均为负面。 8．句意：你从经验中学到的东西才要紧。 “不重要的是奖项，重要的是学到的东西”。matters“重要”正确。cares需加about；clears“清理”；inspires“激励”均不符。 9．句意：最后，保持积极，做你喜欢的事。 文章结构“First, Second,”后接最后一点。Lastly“最后”符合。Sadly/Nervously/Luckily偏离逻辑。 10．句意：你的父母也总是为你骄傲，尽管你不完美。 前后为让步转折关系。though“尽管”正确。if“如果”表条件；when表示时间；until表示“直到”，均不合。 二．阅读理解（50分） A Stay active     Exercise is one of the best ways to deal with stress. Find some sports you enjoy and build them into your daily routine. Talk through it     It’s so much easier to deal with stress when you let others lend a hand. Talk to a parent, teacher, or other trusted adults. Enjoy yourself     Besides physical activity, find other hobbies or activities that you enjoy. Get enough shut-eye     Sleep is important for both your body and mind. Ideally (理想地), teens should get ten hours’ sleep a night. 11．Which of the following is mentioned (提到) as a cause of stress? ① Facing an unexpected life change.     ② Making an important decision. ③ Getting bored with daily life.     ④ Going through something bad.

D．Teenagers. 【答案】11．C 12．A 13．A 14．B 15．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了青少年压力的成因、主要来源，并提供了四种应对压力的实用建议。 11．文章左上角关于压力定义的部分提到：“an important Decision”、“BIG EVENT coming up”、“A lot of things going on at once”、“UNEXPECTED Change in our LIFE”、“Something Terrible HAPPENS”。①“Facing an unexpected life change”对应“UNEXPECTED Change in our LIFE”；②“Making an important decision”对应“an important Decision”；④“Going through something bad”对应“Something Terrible HAPPENS”；③“Getting bored with daily life”文中未提及，故排除。 12．文章右上角柱状图标题为“Sources of stress in teens”，其中“Schoolwork”对应的柱状图高度最高，占比约75%，所以学业是青少年最主要的压力来源。 13．文章“Stay active”板块提到“Exercise is one of the best ways to deal with stress. Find some sports you enjoy and build them into your daily routine.”加入篮球俱乐部属于运动锻炼，对应“Stay active”这一建议。 14．文章“Enjoy yourself”板块提到“Besides physical activity, find other hobbies or activities that you enjoy.”；同时“Stay active”也提到“Find some sports you enjoy”，所以“做自己喜欢的事”是应对压力的好方法。 15．文章图表标题为“Sources of stress in teens”，且所有应对建议（如“每天睡10小时”“和家长/老师交流”）均针对青少年群体设计，所以目标读者群体是青少年。 B Anger isn’t a good feeling. Anger may make us feel uncomfortable, but it’s also a normal and natural emotion in daily life. Unluckily, many of us are used to hiding our feelings. Research shows that this can have long-term bad influences (影响) on our health, both in mind and body. 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 probably can’t get on well with our friends and our family. The longer we stay angry, the worse the result will be. So how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way? First, ▲ Anger is often caused by feelings such as fear, disappointment and so on. By finding out the true cause, we can deal with it more effectively (有效的). Second, pay attention to 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. Another way to deal with anger is to talk about it. The study shows that if we name our feelings, we can slowly calm ourselves down and feel better. Last, do some controlled breathing or find some helpful exercise to do. Exercise helps with feelings of anger. If we learn to deal with anger properly, we will feel calmer, get on better with others and live a happier life. 16．How does the writer lead into the topic in Paragraph 2? A．By telling a story. B．By asking a question. C．By giving an example. D．By listing numbers. 17．Which of the following is right? (X means how long we stay angry; Y means the bad influence it will have.) A．B． C． D． 18．Which of the following can be put in“ ▲ ”in Paragraph 3? A．learn to control our anger. B．know what makes us angry. C．hide our bad feeling quietly. D．try not to be angry. 19．Which can help deal with feelings of anger according to the passage? ① Taking some exercise. ② Eating delicious food. ③ Talking about the feelings. ④ Doing some controlled breathing. A．①②③ B．②③④ C．①③④ D．①②④ 20．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．What makes you angry? B．Why are you angry? C．When to deal with anger D．How to deal with anger 【答案】16．B 17．A 18．B 19．C 20．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了愤怒是一种正常情绪，长期压抑或不当表达愤怒会带来负面影响，并介绍了正确处理愤怒情绪的方法。 【详解】16．第二段通过提出问题 “So how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way?” 引出下文对处理愤怒方法的介绍，因此作者是通过提出问题的方式引入主题。 17．第二段提到 “The longer we stay angry, the worse the result will be.”，说明愤怒持续的时间（X）越长，带来的不良影响（Y）越严重，二者呈正相关关系，对应选项A的图像。 18．第三段的空后内容为 “Anger is often caused by feelings such as fear, disappointment and so on. By finding out the true cause, we can deal with it more effectively.”，核心是强调找到愤怒的真正原因，因此空处应填 “know what makes us angry”。 19．第三段介绍了处理愤怒的方法：“Another way to deal with anger is to talk about it.”、“do some controlled breathing or find some helpful exercise to do.”，即①运动、③谈论感受、④控制呼吸，因此选①③④。 20．全文围绕如何正确处理愤怒情绪展开，介绍了不当表达愤怒的危害和多种处理方法，因此最佳标题是 “How to deal with anger”。 C We often wish to be happy in our daily life. But what exactly is happiness? Is it a place, or a never-ending journey? Is happiness on social media? It sure seems that way. People love sharing perfect pictures online. But going through posts on the Internet sometimes can actually make you feel worse about your life. They mislead (误导) people into thinking that others are better off. ____▲____ Also, a study shows people spending over two hours daily on social media are twice as likely to feel lonely. But what if we’re the ones posting? When we share a happy moment, we get excited, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. Happiness only lasts for so long, and when it ends, we set out looking for new happiness. And social media has made this search harder than ever. Happily, there’s still hope for us to find lasting happiness. This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and deal with emotions like anger, disappointment, fear and sadness. It’s not easy, but when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper and more meaningful connections with others. And those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer than any number of “likes” on a screen! March 20th is World Happiness Day. Take it as a reminder that trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn (独角兽)—it’s just not going to happen. Instead, focus on your own journey and accept different emotions you’ll feel along the way. 21．How does the writer start the topic in Paragraph 1? A．By asking questions. B．By giving examples. C．By comparing facts. D．By listing numbers. 22．Which of the following can be put in ____▲____? A．In this way, people can know more about others. B．In fact, using social media too much causes low spirits. C．Instead, people will take it seriously. D．What’s more, social media opens people’s eyes. 23．Which of the following best describes the change of people’s feelings in Paragraph 3? A．B． C． D． 24．Why does the writer mention World Happiness Day? A．To introduce a special day in March. B．To show the importance of being happy every day. C．To remind people to accept different emotions on the way to happiness. D．To encourage people to spend more time on social media on that day. 25．What is the best title for the text? A．The True Meaning of Social Media B．Happiness on Social Media C．The Search for True Happiness D．The Journey to World Happiness Day 【答案】21．A 22．B 23．B 24．C 25．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了社交媒体时代人们对幸福的误解，批判了网络上虚假的幸福表象，并引导人们理解真正的幸福是接纳不同情绪、建立深度关系的过程。 【详解】21．第一段以提问方式开启话题：“But what exactly is happiness? Is it a place, or a never-ending journey?”，通过连续设问引出对“幸福”的探讨。 22．第二段中，前文提到社交媒体会误导人们认为他人生活更美好，后文又指出长时间使用社交媒体更易感到孤独，因此空白处补充“In fact, using social media too much causes low spirits.”，点明过度使用社交媒体会导致情绪低落，与上下文逻辑连贯。 23．第三段描述了情绪变化：“When we share a happy moment, we get excited, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. Happiness only lasts for so long”，说明人们的感受是先因分享而兴奋上升，随后又回落至原来的状态，对应先升后降的变化曲线，即选项B。 24．第五段提到世界幸福日：“Take it as a reminder that trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn... Instead, focus on your own journey and accept different emotions you’ll feel along the way”，目的是提醒人们在追求幸福的路上要接纳不同的情绪。 25．全文围绕“寻找真正的幸福”展开，批判了社交媒体上虚假的幸福表象，强调接纳情绪、建立深度关系才是持久幸福的来源，因此最佳标题是“The Search for True Happiness”。 D Do you get angry when a friend borrows your favourite thing and then breaks it?

Doing some housework or exercise helps reduce your feeling of anger. All in all, anger is a normal feeling. The most important thing is to know it well and learn to deal with it properly. 26．How does the writer start the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By giving examples. C．By making a survey.

For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red...”可知，该段主要说明愤怒时身体会出现的变化。 28．根据第四段中“write down the reasons”、“talk about it with other people”、“Do some housework or exercise”可知，写下原因、和他人交流、做家务都是应对愤怒的方法，文中未提及“听音乐”。 29．根据文章整体结构可知，第一段总起引出话题；第二至四段分别从愤怒的身体反应、不当发泄的危害、正确应对方法三个方面分述；第五段总结全文，属于“总—分—总”结构。对应B选项的结构图。 30．根据第一段中“Anger is a common feeling, and it’s important to learn to deal with it properly.”和第五段中“All in all, anger is a normal feeling.

One true example is at Two Rivers High School in Mendota Heights, Minnesota, USA．The school runs a Digital Wellbeing Club in partnership with the nonprofit (非营利) Live More Screen Less. Olivia Kanavati, a junior at the school, used to be deeply addicted (对……上瘾) to her phone.

Later, Olivia joined the Digital Wellbeing Club. There, students learn to plan their screen time and real life properly. Now she spends free time more meaningfully. She reads in the school library, draws with friends, and joins art and music activities after class. She also talks more openly with her family and teachers when she feels stressed. She spends less than 2 hours on the phones each week now. Olivia has become a more confident and outgoing girl bit by bit.
