21、Comparative thinking and behavior is quite typical among teenagers,  but it is the responsibility of the parent to set limits and hold firmly to them. Frequently, a parent will tell me in frustration about how their child has complained about not having the very best in fashion design like their friends, or the latest electronic gadgetry that all the other kids own.

Parents need to teach their children self­confidence. Those who are self­confident resist the urge to compare themselves to other people, and do not overestimate others' experience while diminishing their own. But some people may have a mantra signified by the slogan, if only. “If only I had the money of my brother; if only I was smart like my classmates; if only I was as good­looking as my friends.”

Comparing oneself with others is a trap. People who compare themselves with other individuals tend to feel that they are not good enough.  They tend to perseverate(表现执拗)about their shortcomings. Even if they try their best，it is not good enough because they can always find someone who performs at a higher level. When people compare, they generally focus on their negative traits. They ignore all that is going right in their life. They also tend to minimize their success and dismiss positive gestures and compliments.

Those who are confident listen to their own inner voice. They are not influenced by other people's view of events. They are not overly impressed by others' success, money, health，and material possessions. They do not believe that others have a greater sense of emotional well­being than they do.

Recently,  The Harvard Mental Health Letter published an article which  indicated  that  people  with  chronic(慢性的)pain had as significant a sense of well­being as those without chronic pain. However, those with chronic pain tended to overestimate the emotional well­being of physically healthy people. The study confirmed that it is how we view events that is important, not the nature of our circumstances which may include making comparisons.

【1】 It seems that those who make comparisons don't________.

A. care about their success

B. have self­confidence

C. overestimate others' experience

D. understand others' success

【2】The third paragraph mainly tells us________.

A. people tend to compare themselves to other individuals

B. those who make comparisons focus on their strengths

C. those who make comparisons don't deserve compliments

D. making comparisons can cause many negative effects

【3】The article published in The Harvard Mental Health Letter  indicates________.

A. chronic pain actually doesn't affect people's sense of  happiness

B. physically healthy people have a higher sense of happiness

C. emotional health has nothing to do with physical health

D. what is important is the nature of events rather than our viewpoints

【4】 What is the author's attitude towards “making comparisons”？

A.  Favorable.   B.  Unconcerned.

C.  Disapproving. D.  Doubtful.

22、   A young lawyer named Gabriel Massote, from Uberlandia, a city in southeastern Brazil, was diagnosed with blood cancer at age 26. He had chemotherapy(化疗)for almost a year. However, his cancer returned in a worse form, so he had to receive a bone marrow transplant(骨髓移植)。

Brazilian news medium Sempre Familia shared his story. It said how over 1, 000 miles away, in a small town in the state of Rondonia, an unemployed hairdresser named Elza dos Santos came across a series of posters near a supermarket in the city of Ariquemes and went to see what they were about. After learning about the whole thing, Elza signed up as a donor.

Just when the possibility of Gabriel's finding a match in the Bone Marrow Donor Registry in Brazil was about1 in 100, 000, he was blessed. In Rondonia, Elza was informed her marrow was a match for that of a person in need of a transplant and she didn't say no.

She traveled to Rio Grande o Norte, on the opposite side of Brazil, for the transplant. The first attempt didn't work. Elza was called again and she immediately made a second trip in order to repeat the process. Gabriel, now 35, concludes, "She saved me twice, and today my blood cells are Elza's. "

Deeply grateful, Gabriel wanted to find the donor. "When I met Elza and found out that she and her husband were unemployed and living in borrowed space, I was sure I should help them. "The lawyer started a campaign online and soon 465 people donated about$28, 500. Thanks to this generosity, Elza and her family bought a house.

23、Diet containing lots of salt can contribute to increased levels of stress, a new study shows. Scientists found in studies of mice that a high-salt diet increased the levels of a stress hormone by 75 per cent. Experts hope the findings will encourage a review of public health policy around salt consumption, aiming at manufacturers reducing the amount of salt in processed food.

The recommended salt intake for adults is less than six grams a day but most people regularly eat about nine grams. This can contribute to higher blood pressure, which increases the risks of heart attacks, strokes and dementia.

While effects on the heart and circulatory(循环) system have been ascertained, little was known about the impact of a high-salt diet on a person’s behaviour. To study this, experts from the University of Edinburgh used mice, who ordinarily have a low-salt diet, and gave them high-salt food to reflect the typical intake of humans.

They found that not only did resting stress hormone levels increase, but the mice’s hormone response to environmental stress was double that of mice that had a normal diet. Salt intake increased the activity of genes that produce the proteins in the brain which control how the body responds to stress.

Experts say further studies are already underway to understand if a high-salt intake leads to other behavioural changes such as anxiety and aggression. Matthew Bailey, professor of Renal Physiology at the University of Edinburgh’s Centre for Cardiovascular Science, said: “We are what we eat and understanding how high-salt food changes our mental health is an important step to improving wellbeing. We know that eating too much salt damages our heart, blood vessels(血管) and kidneys. This study now tells us that high salt in our food also changes the way our brain handles stress.”

【1】What are the findings expected to bring about eventually?

A．Manufacturers adding less salt to processed food.

B．People debating the policy on public health.

C．Decreased levels of stress hormones.

D．Reduced amount of processed food.

【2】What does the underlined word “ascertained” in paragraph 3 probably mean?

A．Ignored.

B．Restored.

C．Reduced.

D．Confirmed.

【3】Which of the following may be a subject of further research?

A．What policy on salt should be.

B．How a high-salt intake affects blood pressure.

C．How much salt intake is appropriate.

D．Whether a high-salt intake causes anxiety.

【4】What may be a suitable little for the text?

A．Most people regularly take in too much salt.

B．Mental health is important to improving well being.

C．Diet containing much salt increases levels of stress.

D．Less than six grams of salt a day is recommended.

24、Dealing with judgment from other people can be tough.【1】But you can cope with their criticism using positivity and sympathy. The tips below will show you the best ways to respond when someone judges you.

【2】

Try not to take any judgmental words personally. Remember that a judgmental person’s words are a reflection of their own beliefs — and not yours Remind yourself of all the things you do well, and keep a list of your best traits and achievements to boost your confidence.

Be sympathetic.

【3】It could be that they were judged themselves by parents, family, or friends, in which case this person’s critical attitude would be something they learned. While that doesn’t excuse their behavior, having compassion can inform your response. Say things like “I’m not sure I agree, but I understand your position and I’ll take time to think it over. Thank you for sharing.”

Ask for clarification.

Judgmental people may not know they’re being rude or unreasonable. Ask this person to explain what they said, and find out their motivation for saying it.【4】Before you interpret this person’s words a certain way, make sure you know their true meaning and why they felt the need to judge you.

Calm down and respond rationally (理性地).

Being judged is never fun, and it’s natural for you to feel hurt and emotional right after it happens.【5】Getting defensive or judgmental in return is unlikely to help them see the error of their ways, and more likely to start a fight. If you get angry, take several deep breaths until you feel yourself calming down. Excuse yourself briefly if you need to. Take a quick walk, and return to the conversation when you feel ready.

A．So you should stay collected.

B．Separate yourself from the judgment.

C．Judgmental people are just unavoidable.

D．Try understanding the source of this person’s judgment.

E．Think of each situation where you feel judged as a learning experience.

F．Explain why their words have bothered you and make sure this doesn’t happen again.

G．Some people have good intentions but end up sounding judgmental when they’re trying to help.
