When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my short-comings. Week by week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn't a good student, Italked too much and so on. I tried to hear all this as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, then he asked.“Are the things she says true or not Janet, didn't you ever wonder what you're really like Well, you now have that girl's opinion. Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true.Pay no attention to the other things she said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. Some of them I couldn't change(like being very thin), but a good numberI could—and suddenly I wanted to change. For the first time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused to take it.“That's just for you,”he said.“You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. But you have to learn to listen, when something said about you is true, you'll find it will be of help to you.
Our world is full of people who think they know your duty. Don't shut your ears.Listen to them all, but hear the truth and do what you know is the right thing to do.”Daddy's advice has returned to me at many important moments. In my life, I've never had a better piece of advice.

How to relax your mind
Nowadays, people everywhere seem to find less and less time available to them,and more and more things to achieve. It's quite common to find people running a-round like headless chickens meeting deadlines that they create. One doesn't have to live this way, in stress and struggle. 51
Breathe—I can't stress enough the importance of learning how to breathe proper-ly, and not only when you're stressed, but at all times that you can. Learning how to breathe properly at all times is essential. You should try to deepen and lengthen your breath to lower the stress level and promote relaxation. 52
Relax—We often think that just going to the gym and working out is the right way to go to relax
ourselves. 53 A good hard workout is good from time to time,but you are still running at full steam ahead and not giving yourself time to relax. So lighting some fragrant candles, taking a slow hot bath or a shower, or meditating for even 10 minutes will do wonders to help you relax your mind and get out of the stress zone.
Let it all out— 54 So calling or meeting up with a person who can listen to and empathize with us is often a great way to relax. It's important that we don't go into victim mode and get too negative. When we let out our frustrations, it should be done in a positive manner, and with light heartedness, even joking about the stress we're under.
55 ——Probably one of the most difficult skills at first to master, but in the end one of the most rewarding to learn in our fast-paced society is the attitude of grat-itude. We can do some gratitude list making right on the spot to get out of our heads and to be away from all that we wish we had but don't, and to be thankful for all that we do have. I swear learning how to do this will relax you in a way that will change your life for a better one.
Hopefully this article helped you to find an answer to your question about how to relax your mind from stress. Try these techniques and let us know, what works best for you.
A. Be thankful to your friends.
B. Be grateful for what you have.
C. But this pace doesn't do much for our mind or stress levels.
D. In this article we will present a few tips on how to relax your mind from stress.
E. In addition, deeper breathing helps to get rid of harmful substances in your lungs.
F. Sometimes we need to just let out our frustrations and worries to a close friend.

Chinese 24 solar terms: Start of Summer
The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides a year into 24 solar terms. Start of Summer, the 7th term of the year, begins on May 6 and ends on May 21 this year.
Start of Summer is the beginning of summer. On that day, the sun shines the Earth at an angle of 45 degrees, and later the temperature will rise quickly. Here are five things to learn more about it.
Greeting Start of Summer
The term Start of Summer was from the end of the Warring States Period(239BC). Since it is an important time for the harvest of summer crops, ancient Chinese emperors paid special attention to Start of Summer. It's said that most of the things were in the color red, including the clothes, the horses and the flags, to wish for a good harvest.
Checking One’s Weight
The custom of weighing people at Start of Summer was from the Three King-doms Period(220-180). After lunch on that day, the young and the old took turns to get weighed while the person who checked the weight would offer good wishes. It is said those who were weighed would stay healthy in the hot summer and those who weren't would be troubled with illness.
Eating Eggs
In ancient China, people believed a round egg represented a happy life and eating eggs on that day was a wish for good health. They put leftover tea into boiled water together with eggs. Then, the original(起初的)“tea egg”was created. Later, people improved cooking methods to make them taste delicious.“Tea egg”has become a tra-ditional snack in China today.
Having Egg Competitions
Parents prepare boiled eggs and put them in a bag before hanging them on their children's chest.
When at school, children have egg competitions by hitting eggs in pairs and the one whose egg is broken fails.
Looking After the Heart
According to Chinese traditional medicine, Start of Summer is a key time to moisten(湿润) the heart. When the weather grows hotter, dampness (潮湿) and heat can do harm to people's health.
Food rich in vitamins and cool in nature is highly recommended. Vegetables such as tomatoes and carrots and fruits like watermelons and strawberries are top recommendations.
66. The Start of Summer marks the change of season, and temperature.(10个词以内)
67. How many traditions are mentioned in the passage
(10个词以内)
68. Name three things colored in red on the Start of Summer.
(10个词以内)
69. People who were weighed would be and who weren't would be .
(一空一词)
70. When the weather grows hotter, what food will you recommend to stay healthy

书面表达
Dear teachers and classmates,
I’m very happy to share some ideas on Chinese with you. As we all know, Chinese is becoming more and more useful and popular all over the world. However, young people’s language ability is becoming poorer because they pay little attention to the way of talking on the Internet. Internet memes are changing their communication habits when they communicate on the Internet, they usually use Internet memes. Therefore, it’s important for us to learn Chinese well.
In my opinion, we should take some steps to learn Chinese well. First of all, we had better believe in ourselves and try to read Chinese loudly. What’s more, it’s a good way to take part in a Chinese club to practice speaking Chinese. Last but not least, I think we should learn Chinese by listening to Chinese poems and watching movies about Chinese culture.
Let’s try our best to learn Chinese. If we learn Chinese in right ways, we will surely make progress and do well in it.
Thank you for listening!
