一、任务型阅读
Everyone worries. But how do you deal with your worries Whether your worries are big or small, you can take these three steps to deal with your worries: Try to find out what you’re worried about. Sometimes, you may know what you’re worried about. Other times, you may not. Try to find it out first; if you can’t, you can ask for help.
Think of ways to make things better. There is always something you can do to help feel less worried. Sitting there worrying is no fun and it won’t solve your problem. Grades at school are often top worries for kids. If you’re worried about grades, ask yourself these questions: Why are grades important What do grades mean to me How do I get ready for class Do I go over my notes even when there isn’t a test Do I have a good place to do my homework Have I tried different ways of studying
If your worry is about a fight you had with a friend, you may write down all the things you can do — write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game, say sorry to him or her, etc. Once you have a list of the things you can do, you can choose the one that gets your friend back.
Ask for help.
When you’re worried, it is helpful to find someone to talk to. You can ask your parents, friends or teachers for help.
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
1．How many steps for dealing with your worries are mentioned (提及) in the passage
2．What will you do if you don’t know what you’re worried about
3．What will you do if you have a fight with your friend
4．What are often top worries for kids
5．Who can you ask for help when you’re worried
Sometimes, we all get angry. Did you ever get so angry that you thought you were going to do anything terrible
Sometimes, I can get very angry with someone. It might be my little sister or my elder brother, or even my pet dog or cat!
Last Friday, I helped my parents sweep the floor. When I was ready to have a rest, my elder brother threw some pieces of paper on the floor. What a mess! However, he thought it was fun. I got so angry with him that I broke a window in the house although I knew it was a terrible thing.
My mum let me sit down and said to me, “Nick, breaking things is never the right way to solve a problem.” When Dad came home from work, he told me that I would have to use the money I got for my twelfth birthday to buy a new window. How upset I was! Then he said to me, “Using words is always better than hitting or fighting. If you were angry with John who shouldn’t throw things everywhere, why didn’t you tell him about your feeling When you do bad things out of anger, you will always feel sorry for them.”
Although I’m still a little sad, I will always remember what my parents told me that day.
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
6．What did Nick help his parents do last Friday
7．Where did Nick’s brother throw some pieces of paper
8．Who is John
9．How did Nick feel when he knew he had to pay for the window
10．What do you think of breaking things when getting angry
人的情绪是复杂的，你能认识并理解自己的情绪吗
Do you know how you feel today Sometimes it’s hard to tell. That’s why two 17-year-olds, Tara Verma and Siena Pradhan, from the US, made an app called Feel Now.
Feel Now is a free app and people can use it on their phones. The app helps users think about and understand their feelings. They get a message each day. It asks them to choose a feeling. The users pick one from six feelings: happy, peaceful, angry, sad, bored and scared. Then the app breaks down (分解) each one into ten feelings. For example, it breaks down ”scared“into ”worried“and nine other feelings. The users can also say how strong the feeling is, such as ”a little“or”very“.
Aditi, 14, is one of the users. She uses Feel Now and finds a feeling she didn’t know about. She might worry about a test more than she thought. And then she does something to make herself feel better. Some people think Feel Now could be more useful if it works with other apps. But Tara and Siena think the simple app is more helpful. ”I think the simpler it is, the more people will use it. Tara said.
11．What can Feel Now help people do
12．How many feelings can the app break down each feeling into
13．What does Aditi do after knowing her feeling
14．What do Tara and Siena think of the app
15．Do you want to try Feel Now Why or why not
