Life consists of constant decision-making at pretty much every moment and you can make choices and plans for life. ____36____ When these unanticipated situations add up, it’s easy to become anxious and feel out of control. The principles below may help you handle these feelings.
Rather than viewing your life as “out of control”, it helps to take an “it is what it is” attitude for the time being. ____37____ Instead, it just signifies letting go of needing control; letting go of a need to control everything can lead to greater life satisfaction.
Even if you may not control everything, you do still have control over some things. Work on changing the things you do have control over, like going to the gym a bit more, eating fewer sweets or removing an unpleasant person from your life. ____38____
Constantly wondering whether you’re making the right choices will disturb you. In contrast, taking pride in what you create for your life is beneficial. If you’ve made bad decisions, learn from them and move forward. ____39____ Also, try to be appreciative of challenging situations because they push you to keep going and bring you to better times.
____40____ Whether it is with a loved one or a clinical psychologist who offers professional advice, don’t hesitate to talk it out. They can help you deconstruct these feelings and sort them out accordingly.
A. Learn to value your own strengths.
B. There are times when you lack motivation.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Smiling is a global smart language. Everybody smiles in the same language. We smile when we feel good. ___16___There's a bidirectional effect between smiling and feeling positive: Both can be reason and effect of the other one.
The act of smiling is connected with neurotransmitters related to pleasure sensations and psychological tensions, as well as with certain stress hormones. ___17___ When we smile, even when we force it, our body releases the “feel good” hormones, which will put us in a much better mood and relieve our stress. Meanwhile, our creativity and self-confidence increase, leading us towards the right mental balance we need.
___18___ Plentiful evidence shows that smiling can help boost the immune system by decreasing stress levels, which in turn increases white blood cell count and releases beneficial antibodies that help fight infection and disease. Besides, smiling can even reduce our heart rate after a stressful situation.
But positive effects of smiling aren't limited to our own mental and physical well-being: Our smile goes beyond us having a positive effect on the people around. Research suggests that happy people influence the people closest to them and provide a boost of good energy. ___19___ When others see us smiling, chances are that we'll find them smiling as well. The more we smile, the more we'll receive smiles back.
Attractive smiles suggest confidence, capability and authority, and these feelings can motivate others. A smile is the prettiest thing we can wear. ___20___ When we smile, life smiles as well.
A. Smiling can even improve our physical health.
B. That's why life isn't always full of reasons to smile.
C. Smiling may be the most effective and cheapest anti-stress.
D. And we can create well-being feelings just by raising a smile.
E. Smiling is one of the most infectious expressions of emotion.
F. Never let negative emotions prevent you bonding with others.
G. So we should smile more and then benefit ourselves and others.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The WHO says that 80% of the world’s teens don’t get enough exercise to live healthy lives. The report was based on research done with students aged 11 to 17 in 146 different countries. ___16___ It’s a pity that not much has changed since then, as the WHO reports.
Doctors say 60 minutes of exercise daily is needed for teens to build up their bone and muscle strength. It’s also hugely important for the health of the heart and lungs. ___17___ Besides, more and more research is showing that exercise doesn’t just help the body, but also the brain, improving thinking, test scores, and school grades.
___18___ They were also very different between boys and girls. In the US, for example, 64% of boys were not active enough, compared to 80% of girls. South Korea was the country with the lowest activity levels — 91% of the boys and 97% of the girls didn’t get enough exercise.
One big reason for the lack of activity in today’s teens is technology such as smartphones, computers and TVs. Many teens find it hard to pull themselves away from them. ___19___
So the WHO warns that teens need to do less playing in the digital world, and more playing in the real world. Teens should take part in sports, whether on official teams or just playing around on the playground. ___20___ For many people, walking or biking to school is one way to make that happen. It’s very important for young people to build these habits now, because the positive effects of those habits can carry through into adult life.
A. Exercise benefits you academically.
B. Activity levels vary from country to country.
C. The WHO has spared no effort in the research.
D. Such inactivity can severely affect their growth.
E. Exercise can also be built into a normal day’s activities.
F. Regular activity can help them control their weight, too.
G. The WHO has been studying teen activity levels since 2001.
