Dear Seth,
You’re only three years old, and at this point you are not able to understand this letter. 1
Life can be unkind. There will be people in your life who won’t be very nice. They’ll laugh at you because you’re different, or for no good reason. You will also face heartbreak and might be hurt by those you love. 2
Be open to life anyway. You’ll find cruelty (残酷) and pain in your journey through life, but don’t let that stop you from doing new things. Don’t retreat (退却) from life, and don’t hide or wall yourself off (隔开). Be open to new things, new experiences and new people. You will fail many times, but if you allow that to keep you from trying, you will miss many chances. 3
You will meet many people who will try to do better than you, in school, in college, and at work. They’ll try to have nicer cars, bigger houses, and nicer clothes. 4
Here’s a secret. Life isn’t a competition. It’s a journey. If you always try your best to beat others, you’re wasting your life. Learn to enjoy your life instead. 5

Love,
Dad

Everyone gets sad. Sad feelings can happen pretty often. More than half of teenagers go through a sad period at least once a month.

When you’re sad, the world seems dark and unfriendly. Many times, you cry, and it’s hard to stop. 2 When sadness starts to go away, it feels like a heavy blanket is being lifted from your heart.

When depression happens, it’s very important for children to receive treatment. 3 Sometimes treatment includes talking to someone who knows all about depression. Sometimes it means taking medicine. 4

Most people in the world want to be happy. An international study has found that happiness, more than wealth or fame (名利), is what most people long for. 1
But what is happiness? How can we get it? It turns out that happiness can be many different things. 2 For some, happiness comes from succeeding in a task, such as getting a good score on an exam or cooking a meal that their family enjoy. For others, it’s just having a positive attitude (积极态度). Their glass is always half-full. When bad things happen, they don’t fall into a state of unhappiness. 3 For example, you will feel happy when you run into an old friend.
When I think of happiness, I think of children. You can often catch them out laughing on the playground or suddenly breaking into song or dancing around for no good reason. 4 Seeing them happy makes me happy. One of the secrets I’ve found to being happy is to enjoy other people’s happiness.
We see war, poverty(贫穷) and sickness in the news every day. We also have our own problems. 5 We can choose to be happy and, with an open heart, accept the happiness that is all around us.

Passage 1

Do you often get angry? Anger is a kind of feeling. 1 When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, or when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry.
2 For example, you breathe (呼吸) faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something, but sometimes, you keep your anger inside. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache (头疼) or not feel comfortable.
In fact, it’s not good to hide (压抑) your anger, and it’s common for you to get angry sometimes. But keeping anger inside usually just makes things worse. 3 Try to let it out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself.
When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. 4 When you talk about anger, those bad
feelings can start to go away. Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry. For example, talk to a good friend, count from 1 to 100, go for a bike ride, think about good things and so on.
5 So you should think carefully before you take action. Don’t let your anger control you. Try your best to control your anger!
A.Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse.

Most people in the world want to be happy. An international study has found that happiness, more than wealth or fame (名利), is what most people long for. 1
But what is happiness? How can we get it? It turns out that happiness can be many different things. 2 For some, happiness comes from succeeding in a task, such as getting a good score on an exam or cooking a meal that their family enjoy. For others, it’s just having a positive attitude (积极态度). Their glass is always half-full. When bad things happen, they don’t fall into a state of unhappiness. 3 For example, you will feel happy when you run into an old friend.
When I think of happiness, I think of children. You can often catch them out laughing on the playground or suddenly breaking into song or dancing around for no good reason. 4 Seeing them happy makes me happy. One of the secrets I’ve found to being happy is to enjoy other people’s happiness.
We see war, poverty(贫穷) and sickness in the news every day. We also have our own problems. 5 We can choose to be happy and, with an open heart, accept the happiness that is all around us.
