an article
B. By listing data
C. By asking questions
A. By giving examples
D. By showing differences
Then I read an article that said instead of asking " Am I fat " I should be asking " Am I fit " I had no idea a letter could make such a difference! Once I started thinking about fitness rather than weight, things began to change. Instead of saying " I want to lose three kilos ", I would say " I want to run two kilometres in eight minutes " or " I want to be able to do 30 push - ups ". Rather than cutting out the foods I enjoyed, I added healthy foods to my meals. I could still have a burger now and then, but I would add a salad or an apple.
Finally, I stopped comparing myself with actresses and models and looking for things that were wrong with my face or body. Instead, I made a list of the things I liked about myself. By being positive about myself and my body, I became both happier and healthier .

第一段：简述过去问题 学习压力大，焦虑不安，晚上睡不好，白天无法集中注意力。 考试进步不大，十分担忧。 没有了自信，也不愿与人交流。 第二段：改变 转折点： 书，文章，电影，一节英语课，老师谈话…… before after
过于关注分数，上课不能专注 常常焦虑，身体不好，常生病 专心听讲，制定日程表，关注自己学了什么
抽出时间慢跑，打球，听歌，缓解压力，增强体质
第三段：结果 不再把自己和别人比较 列出自己的特长 每个人都是独一无二的 找回了自信，阳光健康
writing
I always felt anxious and stressful at senior high school at first because I was afraid of being left behind. I was worried about so many things that I couldn’t sleep well and focus on my study.
Then, I read a book called “Who Moved Your Cheese” which made me realize that making changes can make a difference to life. Instead of just worrying about my study, I would make a schedule for my study and finish the to-do list. Rather than being anxious the whole day, I would do some exercises regularly and listen to music to relieve my stress and tiredness after studying, which also helped me feel more energetic.
Now, I stopped feeling upset about something new. Instead, I would also always remind myself to smile as often as possible and stay positive about everything that is going to happen.

Dear Alex,
Thank you for sharing your concerns with me. I'd like to offer some suggestions that might help.
First, maintaining a regular daily schedule is essential. Try going to bed earlier and doing some meditation before sleep to improve your sleep quality. Besides, doing regular exercise, such as jogging or swimming, can not only help you lose weight but also make you feel relaxed. Also, pay attention to your diet. It’s a good idea to cut down on junk food and choose healthier options like fruits and vegetables.
I believe you can overcome these challenges. Best wishes for better sleep and a healthier life!
Yours,
Li Hua
THANK YOU
Stay healthy, stay motivated!
