24、We all experience disappointments(失望) in life, and they are never easy. When you get disappointed, what do you do? Keep silent? Get angry? Feel depressed? These are natural reactions (反应) when you face disappointment. But there are better ways to deal with it.

Dealing with disappointment

Disappointment is a real emotion. Take a certain amount of time to feel hurt, sad or upset. Find a parent, friend or mentor and share your disappointment with them. Or write your thoughts and feelings of frustration down on paper.

Look at the Big Picture

A disappointment can seem huge at first, but after you’ve expressed your hurt, look at the big picture. How much will this disappointment really affect you tomorrow, next week or next year?

Look for positive (积极的) activities that will help you get over your disappointment. Perhaps you may enjoy writing in your journal, playing games or running in the park. Do one or more of those things. This will help you overcome the disappointment. Also, write down everything that you’re grateful for. This will help you see the positive things rather than the negative things.

Moving ahead

You’ve been disappointed. That’s in the past. It’s time to move forward, so don’t think about your disappointment. Remember not all disappointments are bad. In fact, you may eventually realize what you wanted is not what you really needed. You may discover you are better off because things didn’t work out as you’d planned. There may be a silver lining in your disappointment. Use the disappointment to reexamine your priorities. Then you may want to make major or minor changes in your life and focus on new goals. That can help you work through your disappointment. Remember, the only true failure is to give up.

27、Milk is a favourite drink of people all around the world. Not only is it a popular drink, it is also used as an ingredient in cakes, puddings, sauces, and many other foods. Milk is very important for your health, but it takes many steps to bring milk from the farm to your table at home. Where does milk come from?

Goats, camels, all lamas（美洲驼）produce milk that people drink. So do reindeer, sheep, and water buffalo. The type of milk you drink depends on where in the world you live. Most people drink milk that comes from special cows called dairy cattle. Most dairy cattle are black and white and they are raised in very sanitary（卫生的）conditions. People used to squeeze milk from cows by hand, but now milking machines are used. After milk leaves the cow, it has to be kept clean and cool, or else dangerous bacteria will grow quickly.

Milk goes through many stages before you can drink it. First, it is put in a large tank where many tests are done. Next, it is cleaned in order to remove any dust, hair, or dirt that is found.

The milk production goes through five more important steps. First, milk is divided for different uses. Milk will become either regular milk, cream, butter, or other dairy products. Milk is then heated to a very high temperature to kill any bacteria. This process, called pasteurization, is named for Pasteur, the doctor who invented it.

Next, any fat that may be in the milk is broken up evenly. This prevents the fat from rising to the top. In the fourth step, important nutrients, such as vitamins and proteins, are added to the milk.

Drinking milk is important for the good health of adults and children. Milk helps your body grow and develop and gives you energy. Drinking milk also helps prevent certain diseases. Important vitamins and minerals in milk make your bones stronger. Do you drink enough milk?
