But do you know that we also talk with ourselves from time to time? For example, your mum asks you what you would like for breakfast. Many foods come to your mind: sandwiches, bread, milk...You think that it would be great to have sandwiches. Until you tell your mum what you want to eat, you are talking with yourself. 当我们谈论沟通时，我们通常会想到与他人交谈。但你知道吗，我们也会时不时和自己对话。例如，妈妈问你早餐想吃什么，你的脑海中会浮现出许多食物：三明治、面包、牛奶……你会暗自觉得吃三明治很不错。在你告诉妈妈你的想法之前，你一直在和自己沟通。 We call this kind of communication intrapersonal (内心的) communication. This can be talking to ourselves, reading, writing, thinking, understanding and remembering something. 我们将这种沟通方式称为内心沟通。自我对话、阅读、书写、思考、理解和记忆事物，都属于内心沟通的范畴。 Intrapersonal communication plays a big part in our lives. Good intrapersonal communication allows you to understand yourself better. When you’re comfortable with who you are, and you know what you want, you can better get on with yourself. Also, intrapersonal communication helps you keep an eye on your thoughts and feelings. When you find that your mind is full of bad thoughts and sad feelings, you will try to cheer up and get rid of them. 内心沟通在我们的生活中至关重要。良好的内心沟通能让你更好地认识自我。当你接纳自己、明确自己的需求时，就能更好地与自己相处。同时，内心沟通能帮助你关注自身的想法和情绪。当你发现自己满是负面思绪和悲伤情绪时，会主动调整心态、摆脱负面状态。 What’s more, intrapersonal communication helps you to talk with others. Understanding your thoughts and feelings better allows you to put yourself in others’ shoes when you talk to or listen to them. Then, you can better understand and get on with them. 此外，内心沟通能够助力人际交往。当你更了解自己的想法和情绪后，在与人交谈、倾听他人时，就能学会换位思考，从而更好地理解他人、与人相处。 【长难句分析】 1. 原句：But do you know that we also talk with ourselves from time to time? 翻译：但你知道吗，我们也会时不时和自己对话。 重点：that引导宾语从句，作know的宾语，是初中核心从句考点；固定短语from time to time 意为“时不时、有时”，贴合七年级高频词汇考点。 2. 原句：Understanding your thoughts and feelings better allows you to put yourself in others’ shoes when you talk to or listen to them. 翻译：当你更了解自己的想法和情绪后，在与人交谈、倾听他人时，就能学会换位思考。 重点：动名词短语Understanding...作句子主语；when引导时间状语从句；固定搭配put oneself in others’ shoes 意为“换位思考”，是写作高频短语。 【重难词汇梳理】 1. communication /kəˌmjuːnɪˈkeɪʃn/ n. 沟通，交流 2. intrapersonal /ˌɪntrəˈpɜːsənl/ adj. 内心的，个人内心的 3. allow /əˈlaʊ/ v. 允许，使能够 4. comfortable /ˈkʌmftəbl/ adj. 自在的，舒适的 5. cheer up /tʃɪə ʌp/ 振作起来，开心起来 6. get rid of /ɡet rɪd ɒv/ 摆脱，消除 7. understanding /ˌʌndəˈstændɪŋ/ n. 理解，体谅 8. improve /ɪmˈpruːv/ v. 改善，提升 Passage2 English 中文翻译 Your mind and body are connected (联系的). How you think can affect (影响) how you feel and how you feel can affect your thinking. 人的身心是紧密相连的。思维方式会影响情绪状态，情绪状态也会反过来影响人的思考。 An example of this mind-body connection is how your body responds (回应) to stress (压力). Long-term worry and stress over jobs or other problems can cause headaches, and stomach problems. It may also lead to high blood pressure or other serious problems. 身心关联的典型体现，就是身体对压力的反应。长期的工作压力和生活忧虑会引发头痛、肠胃不适，还可能导致高血压等各类严重的身体问题。 On the other hand, pain (疼痛) or a health problem can affect your emotions (情绪). You might become sad and stressed. And this could affect how you face your illness. 另一方面，身体的疼痛和疾病也会影响情绪，让人陷入悲伤和焦虑，进而影响人们面对病痛的心态。 But your mind can have a positive (积极的) effect on your health, too. Having a positive outlook on life might help you better handle pain or stress. And it can help you stay healthier than someone who is less hopeful. 但心态对健康也有着积极的影响。积极乐观的生活态度，能帮助人们更好地应对疼痛和压力，让人比心态消极的人更健康。 Your brain produces things that can help with your health. These things include endorphins (内啡肽), which are natural painkillers. 大脑会生成有益于身体健康的物质，其中就包括天然止痛物质——内啡肽。 Research shows that what your brain produces depends in part on your thoughts, feelings, and expectations. If you’re sick but you have hope and a positive attitude and you believe that you’ll get better, your brain is likely to produce chemicals that will help your body heal (康复) quickly. 研究表明，大脑的分泌物部分取决于人的思想、情绪和期许。当你身处病痛，却心怀希望、态度积极、坚信自己能够痊愈时，大脑会分泌化学物质，助力身体快速康复。 Negative (负面的) thoughts and emotions can keep your brain from producing some of the chemicals that help your body heal. Although people can’t cure (治愈) all the illness, your thoughts and state of mind are the resources (资源) you can use to get better. 消极的思绪和情绪，会阻碍大脑分泌助力身体康复的化学物质。虽然心态无法治愈所有疾病，但积极的思想和精神状态，是帮助我们恢复健康的重要资源。 When you are stressed, your body responds as though you are in danger. It makes hormones (激素) that speed up your heart, make you breathe faster, and give you a burst of energy. If the stress is over quickly, your body goes back to normal and no harm is done. 当人处于压力中时，身体会做出如同身处危险的反应，分泌激素，使心跳加快、呼吸急促、瞬间充满能量。如果压力快速消散，身体就会恢复常态，不会造成伤害。 But if stress happens too often or lasts too long, it can have bad effects. Long-term stress can make you more likely to get sick, and it can make symptoms of some diseases worse. If you tense up (紧张) when you are stressed, you may have neck, shoulder, or low back pain. Stress can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease. 但频繁或长期的压力会带来诸多负面影响。长期承压会降低身体抵抗力、加重病情，还会引发颈肩腰背酸痛、高血压和心脏病等问题。 Stress also harms your emotional health. It can make you sad, angry or depressed and you may not do well at work or school. But when you are able to relax your mind and body, your body stops producing the hormones that create stress and you return to a state of calm again. 压力同样会损害心理健康，使人悲伤、易怒、情绪低落，影响工作和学习状态。但当身心得到放松时，身体会停止分泌压力激素，人就能重新回归平静状态。 【长难句分析】 1. 原句：Research shows that what your brain produces depends in part on your thoughts, feelings, and expectations. 翻译：研究表明，大脑的分泌物部分取决于人的思想、情绪和期许。 重点：that引导宾语从句，从句中又包含what引导的主语从句，贴合初中复合句拓展考点；固定搭配depend on 意为“取决于、依靠”，in part 意为“部分地”。 2. 原句：If you’re sick but you have hope and a positive attitude and you believe that you’ll get better, your brain is likely to produce chemicals that will help your body heal quickly. 翻译：当你身处病痛，却心怀希望、态度积极、坚信自己能够痊愈时，大脑会分泌化学物质，助力身体快速康复。 重点：if引导条件状语从句，从句内含that引导的宾语从句；主句中that引导定语从句修饰chemicals；be likely to do sth. 为高频固定搭配，意为“有可能做某事”。 【重难词汇梳理】 1. affect /əˈfekt/ v. 影响 2. respond /rɪˈspɒnd/ v. 回应，反应 3. stress /stres/ n. 压力 v. 施压 4. positive /ˈpɒzətɪv/ adj. 积极的，乐观的 5. expectation /ˌekspekˈteɪʃn/ n. 期待，期许 6. heal /hiːl/ v. 康复，治愈 7. negative /ˈneɡətɪv/ adj. 消极的，负面的 8. hormone /ˈhɔːməʊn/ n. 激素，荷尔蒙 9. symptom /ˈsɪmptəm/ n. 症状 10. depressed /dɪˈprest/ adj. 抑郁的，低落的 Passage1 Someday Comes Are you afraid of the dark? How about heights, spiders, or closed spaces? No matter what your 1 is, you have the power to overcome it. I love gymnastics and my coach thinks I’m pretty good at it, too. On the mat (垫子), I can do it well. But I can’t do it on the balance beam. Today I stood on the beam, trying to do a cartwheel (侧身翻) I looked down at my coach, Rita, who prepared to catch me if I failed. I took a breath but my knees were shaking. “Well, I can’t do it! Someday I’ll do the beam. But not today.” I 2 down and went away. At the following class, Rita took out a roll of 3 . She used it to make two lines the width of the balance beam on the mat. “Maisie, I want you to practice your balance-beam routine within the lines of the tape.” Well, that’s easy enough. All I had to do was to stay inside the lines. I finished it 4 . “Great! You never went outside the lines,” Rita said. “Do you want to have a try on the balance beam?” I gave her a weak smile and shook my head. “Can you teach me how to swim?” Rita said suddenly. I was confused, and then she told me that she couldn’t swim because she was afraid of water. Therefore, I 5 . “Watch.” I jumped into the pool and began to swim. Rita was obviously afraid and hesitated (犹豫) to jump. I 6 her and finally Rita took a deep breath and jumped into the water. She succeeded! My coach was brave enough to jump into the water, and I couldn’t help thinking of myself. So I told Rita, “Maybe my ‘someday’ should be today.” I got up on the balance beam, closing my eyes and imagining I was on the mat. Then I started the cartwheel. I 7 it! Seeing that, Rita was excited to jump up and down, clapping and shouting, “You were so 8 !” “I wasn’t,” I shook my head. “I was super scared up there.” “That makes you great! You were afraid and did it anyway.” I smiled. “I guess you’re right.

Anger may make us feel uncomfortable, but it’s also normal in daily life. Unluckily, many of us have been used to keeping our feelings hidden. Research suggests that this can have long-term bad influences on our 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 family. The longer we stay angry, the worse result we’ll get. So how can we deal with our angry feelings in a right way? First, ▲ . Anger is often caused by feelings of fear, disappointment and so on. Second, pay more attention to those everyday things that will make us angry. One way of dealing with anger is to talk about it. The research has shown that if we name our feelings, we can actually calm ourselves down and feel better. Do some controlled breathing or find some physical activities. Exercise helps with feelings of anger. If we learn to deal with anger properly, we’ll feel calmer, get along better with others, and live a happier and healthier life. 17．Which picture shows the relation between the time of being angry (x) and the bad result of that (y)? A． B． C． D． 18．Which of the following can be put in “______” in Paragraph 3? A．find it hard to solve problems. B．know what makes us angry. C．be more likely to become angry. D．try not to be angry. 19．Which can help deal with feelings of anger? a. Exercising. b. Eating delicious food. c. Talking about the feelings. d. Doing some controlled breathing. A．abc B．abd C．acd D．bcd 20．How is the passage organized? A．By giving examples → explaining reasons → offering solutions → drawing conclusions. B．By stating a problem → analyzing wrong ways → offering solutions → drawing conclusions. C．By comparing different feelings → listing results → giving advice → showing expectations. D．By stating a problem → questioning findings → listing results → drawing conclusions. Passage3 Bad things happen to many of us. Something may make you feel sad, angry, or disappointed. Even so, you still need to go to work or school. On such days, what others say may sound unhelpful, and small things might easily annoy you. The good news is that you can take steps to make the day better. Here are some helpful ways to turn around a bad day. First, accept how you feel. It is not so hard to admit (承认) you are in a bad mood. If you are angry, let yourself feel angry. If you are sad, it is okay to feel sad. This does not mean you can act rude or unkind to others. It simply means you should recognize your feelings. Once you accept them, you can start to do something about them. You might want to hide your feelings and pretend to be happy. But the truth is, people around you can often tell how you really feel. You may only be fooling yourself. A better way is to tell those near you. You can say, “I am in a bad mood today. It is not because of you. If I bite your head off, I am sorry now.” This helps others understand and avoids problems. Try to think of something good. Even on a bad day, there is often something nice. Maybe you look forward to seeing a friend later, or remember a kind word someone said. Thinking of one or two good things can help you feel a little better. Find some quiet time for yourself. On your lunch break, take a short walk. Sit alone in a peaceful place if you can. You could also rest a bit longer in the bathroom. If possible, go home a little early or take a day off. A little quiet time can help calm your mind. By trying these ideas, you can manage a bad day better. You do not have to stay in a bad mood all day. Small changes can help you feel more relaxed and hopeful. 21．How does the writer develop Paragraph 2 to introduce the first step of dealing with a bad day? A．By giving examples to explain an idea. B．By stating a point directly and explaining it. C．By comparing two different choices. D．By using an expert’s words to support the view. 22．What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A．It is easy to hide your true feelings from others. B．Your friends are not interested in your mood. C．Others can usually sense your bad mood even if you try to hide it. D．Putting on a happy mask is the best way to solve the problem. 23．Which sentence can the underlined phrase “bite your head off” be put in? A．If you need help with your homework, just ask and________. B．When I’m stressed, I might ________ at my friend over small things. C．I was so excited about the trip that I wanted to________. D．I usually speak very gently, so my friends won’t think I will ________. 24．If someone is in a bad mood but has no time for a walk or to leave early at work, which easy method from the passage works best? A．Think of one or two good things. B．Argue with workmates to let out anger. C．Spend a long time alone in the bathroom. D．Refuse to talk to anyone all day. Passage4短文填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的适当形式。 What do you do when you have trouble? Do you often have 25 (something) difficult to do with? When facing problems and worries, some people believe the 26 (bad) thing is to do nothing. Because if we run away from them, we 27 (have) more problems. Then how to deal with our problems? It is useful to find someone you trust to talk to. Don’t keep your worries to 28 (you). Try to talk to others, you will become 29 (certain) less worried. The person doesn’t need to be an expert. Your friends or parents will be OK. They are always there 30 (help) you. We often say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. The more you talk to others, the 31 (few) worries you will get. Maybe you 32 (not solve) your problems like this in the past. But now, just remember: 33 we talk to someone, we’ll feel worse. So are you going to talk to others when you have problems after 34 (learn) this passage? Passage5 任务型阅读 When you think of a creative person, you might picture someone painting a picture or writing a poem—but you don’t need to be an artist or poet to be creative. Singing in the shower, inventing a new after-school snack, or even doodling (乱画) in your notebook are all creative acts. And joining in these activities brings many benefits: studies show they can improve your focus, help you relax, and reduce anxiety. What’s more, creativity also has positive effects on your physical health. For your mood (情绪), creativity is like a magic pill. Painting, drawing, or just looking at art works can lower your cortisol (皮质醇)—the stress hormone (荷尔蒙) that makes you feel anxious. So next time you’re nervous before an exam, try doodling something fun or looking at art online. It will help you calm down. When it comes to your heart, creativity can be a great helper. It can lower your blood pressure, making it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. This is especially good for people with heart problems, and even simple creative activities work. Your brain is another big winner when you get creative. Creativity sharpens your focus and mental flexibility (灵活性), letting you think in different ways and come up with new ideas—useful for tricky math problems or essay brainstorming. It keeps the brain young and stops older adults’ cognitive decline (认知下降). Last but not least, your nervous system (神经系统) benefits too. Creativity can better its pain-managing ability. If you suffer from chronic (慢性的) pain, studies show that creative activities like writing music or even singing your favorite tunes can help reduce discomfort. Creativity is for everyone. Try it—you’ll help your body and mind. Give it a try, and you might find a new passion that makes you feel great! 35．What are creative acts? 36．When you’re nervous before an exam, what can you do? 37．Why is creativity good for people with heart problems? 38．What would you like to do to develop your creativity? And why?

Today I stood on the beam, trying to do a cartwheel (侧身翻) I looked down at my coach, Rita, who prepared to catch me if I failed. I took a breath but my knees were shaking. “Well, I can’t do it! Someday I’ll do the beam. But not today.” I 2 down and went away. At the following class, Rita took out a roll of 3 . She used it to make two lines the width of the balance beam on the mat. “Maisie, I want you to practice your balance-beam routine within the lines of the tape.” Well, that’s easy enough. All I had to do was to stay inside the lines. I finished it 4 . “Great! You never went outside the lines,” Rita said. “Do you want to have a try on the balance beam?” I gave her a weak smile and shook my head. “Can you teach me how to swim?” Rita said suddenly. I was confused, and then she told me that she couldn’t swim because she was afraid of water. Therefore, I 5 . “Watch.” I jumped into the pool and began to swim. Rita was obviously afraid and hesitated (犹豫) to jump. I 6 her and finally Rita took a deep breath and jumped into the water. She succeeded! My coach was brave enough to jump into the water, and I couldn’t help thinking of myself. So I told Rita, “Maybe my ‘someday’ should be today.” I got up on the balance beam, closing my eyes and imagining I was on the mat. Then I started the cartwheel. I 7 it! Seeing that, Rita was excited to jump up and down, clapping and shouting, “You were so 8 !” “I wasn’t,” I shook my head. “I was super scared up there.” “That makes you great! You were afraid and did it anyway.” I smiled. “I guess you’re right.

Something may make you feel sad, angry, or disappointed. Even so, you still need to go to work or school. On such days, what others say may sound unhelpful, and small things might easily annoy you. The good news is that you can take steps to make the day better. Here are some helpful ways to turn around a bad day. First, accept how you feel. It is not so hard to admit (承认) you are in a bad mood. If you are angry, let yourself feel angry. If you are sad, it is okay to feel sad. This does not mean you can act rude or unkind to others. It simply means you should recognize your feelings. Once you accept them, you can start to do something about them. You might want to hide your feelings and pretend to be happy. But the truth is, people around you can often tell how you really feel. You may only be fooling yourself. A better way is to tell those near you. You can say, “I am in a bad mood today. It is not because of you. If I bite your head off, I am sorry now.” This helps others understand and avoids problems. Try to think of something good. Even on a bad day, there is often something nice. Maybe you look forward to seeing a friend later, or remember a kind word someone said. Thinking of one or two good things can help you feel a little better. Find some quiet time for yourself. On your lunch break, take a short walk. Sit alone in a peaceful place if you can. You could also rest a bit longer in the bathroom. If possible, go home a little early or take a day off. A little quiet time can help calm your mind. By trying these ideas, you can manage a bad day better. You do not have to stay in a bad mood all day. Small changes can help you feel more relaxed and hopeful. 21．How does the writer develop Paragraph 2 to introduce the first step of dealing with a bad day? A．By giving examples to explain an idea. B．By stating a point directly and explaining it. C．By comparing two different choices. D．By using an expert’s words to support the view. 22．What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A．It is easy to hide your true feelings from others. B．Your friends are not interested in your mood. C．Others can usually sense your bad mood even if you try to hide it. D．Putting on a happy mask is the best way to solve the problem. 23．Which sentence can the underlined phrase “bite your head off” be put in? A．If you need help with your homework, just ask and________. B．When I’m stressed, I might ________ at my friend over small things. C．I was so excited about the trip that I wanted to________. D．I usually speak very gently, so my friends won’t think I will ________. 24．If someone is in a bad mood but has no time for a walk or to leave early at work, which easy method from the passage works best? A．Think of one or two good things. B．Argue with workmates to let out anger. C．Spend a long time alone in the bathroom. D．Refuse to talk to anyone all day. 【答案】21．B 22．C 23．B 24．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了在遭遇糟糕的一天时，人们可以通过接受自身情绪、向他人坦诚感受、回想美好事物以及给自己留出安静时间这几种方法来改善心情，更好地应对负面状态。 【详解】21．细节理解题。根据第二段“First, accept how you feel. It is not so hard to admit you are in a bad mood. If you are angry, let yourself feel angry... It simply means you should recognize your feelings. Once you accept them, you can start to do something about them.”可知，作者首先直接提出“接受自己的感受”这一观点，然后对其进行解释说明，包括承认坏情绪并不难、可以允许自己有愤怒或悲伤等情绪，以及接受情绪后的意义。因此是直接陈述观点并进行解释。故选B。 22．推理判断题。根据第三段“You might want to hide your feelings and pretend to be happy. But the truth is, people around you can often tell how you really feel.”可知，即使你试图隐藏自己的坏情绪，身边的人通常也能察觉出来。故选C。 23．词句猜测题。根据前文“I am in a bad mood today. It is not because of you. If I bite your head off, I am sorry now.”可知，“I bite your head off”是在坏情绪下可能出现的不当行为，结合语境推测其意为“发脾气、怒气冲冲地对人说话”。B选项“When I’m stressed, I might…at my friend over small things.”当有压力时，可能会因为小事对朋友发脾气。故选B。 24．推理判断题。根据“Try to think of something good.”并结合题干“没有时间散步或提前下班”的场景，A选项“回想一两件美好的事情”无需额外占用大量时间，是最便捷可行的方法；故选A。 Passage4短文填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入适当的单词或括号内单词的适当形式。 What do you do when you have trouble? Do you often have 25 (something) difficult to do with? When facing problems and worries, some people believe the 26 (bad) thing is to do nothing. Because if we run away from them, we 27 (have) more problems. Then how to deal with our problems? It is useful to find someone you trust to talk to. Don’t keep your worries to 28 (you). Try to talk to others, you will become 29 (certain) less worried. The person doesn’t need to be an expert. Your friends or parents will be OK. They are always there 30 (help) you. We often say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. The more you talk to others, the 31 (few) worries you will get. Maybe you 32 (not solve) your problems like this in the past.

Singing in the shower, inventing a new after-school snack, or even doodling (乱画) in your notebook are all creative acts. And joining in these activities brings many benefits: studies show they can improve your focus, help you relax, and reduce anxiety. What’s more, creativity also has positive effects on your physical health. For your mood (情绪), creativity is like a magic pill. Painting, drawing, or just looking at art works can lower your cortisol (皮质醇)—the stress hormone (荷尔蒙) that makes you feel anxious. So next time you’re nervous before an exam, try doodling something fun or looking at art online. It will help you calm down. When it comes to your heart, creativity can be a great helper. It can lower your blood pressure, making it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. This is especially good for people with heart problems, and even simple creative activities work. Your brain is another big winner when you get creative. Creativity sharpens your focus and mental flexibility (灵活性), letting you think in different ways and come up with new ideas—useful for tricky math problems or essay brainstorming. It keeps the brain young and stops older adults’ cognitive decline (认知下降). Last but not least, your nervous system (神经系统) benefits too. Creativity can better its pain-managing ability. If you suffer from chronic (慢性的) pain, studies show that creative activities like writing music or even singing your favorite tunes can help reduce discomfort. Creativity is for everyone. Try it—you’ll help your body and mind. Give it a try, and you might find a new passion that makes you feel great! 35．What are creative acts? 36．When you’re nervous before an exam, what can you do? 37．Why is creativity good for people with heart problems? 38．What would you like to do to develop your creativity? And why? (Please give at least two reasons.) 【答案】 35． Singing in the shower, inventing a new after-school snack, or even doodling in your notebook are all creative acts. 36． Try doodling something fun or looking at art online. 37． Because creativity can lower your blood pressure, making it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. 38．I would like to try painting and writing music to develop my creativity. The reason is that painting can help me express my emotions and thoughts visually, while writing music allows me to create melodies that can soothe or energize me. Both activities can improve my focus and reduce stress, which are beneficial for my overall well-being. 【导语】本文主要讨论了什么是创造性行为，以及创造力对人的情绪、心脏、大脑和神经系统的好处。 【详解】35．根据“Singing in the shower, inventing a new after-school snack, or even doodling (乱画) in your notebook are all creative acts.”可知，在淋浴时唱歌、发明一种新的课后小吃，甚至在笔记本上乱涂乱画都是创造性的行为。故填Singing in the shower, inventing a new after-school snack, or even doodling in your notebook are all creative acts. 36．根据“So next time you’re nervous before an exam, try doodling something fun or looking at art online.”可知，下次考试前紧张的时候，试着画一些有趣的东西或在网上看艺术作品。故填Try doodling something fun or looking at art online. 37．根据“It can lower your blood pressure, making it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. This is especially good for people with heart problems, and even simple creative activities work.”可知，创造力可以降低血压，使心脏更容易向全身泵血，这对有心脏问题的人特别好。故填Because creativity can lower your blood pressure, making it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. 38．这是一个开放性问题，答案因人而异。但可以根据文章内容和常识来回答。故填I would like to try painting and writing music to develop my creativity. The reason is that painting can help me express my emotions and thoughts visually, while writing music allows me to create melodies that can soothe or energize me.
