Over the years I've been teaching kids about a simple but powerful concept—the ant philosophy, an{#blank#}1{#/blank#} (amaze) four-part philosophy.

    First, ants never quit. If they're heading somewhere and you try to stop them, they'll climb over. they'll climb under, or they'll climb around. They never give up{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (look) for a way to get where they{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (suppose) to go! Second, ants think about winter and summer. They are always gathering in their winter food in the middle of summer and they are making{#blank#}4{#/blank#}. (prepare) for the long cold winter. So you have to think about storms in summer; think about rocks{#blank#}5{#/blank#} you enjoy the sand and sun. Third, ants think about summer all winter. During the winter, they remind{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (they), "This won't last long and we'll soon be out of here. " On {#blank#}7{#/blank#}．first warm day, the ants are out. If it{#blank#}8{#/blank#} (turn) cold again, they'll dive back down. But they come out again if it is warm Last, how much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter? All that it{#blank#}9{#/blank#} (possible) can. {#blank#}10{#/blank#} you can learn from the ant philosophy is: Never give up, look ahead, stay positive and do all you can.

    When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be very difficult to let go of your anger {#blank#}1{#/blank#}forgiveness is possible-and it can be surprisingly beneficial to your and mental health, So far research has shown that people who forgive can have more energy and {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(good)sleep.

    So when someone has hurt you cool down first. Take a couple of {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (breath)and think of something that {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(give)you pleasure; a beautiful scene in nature, or someone you love. Don't wait for {#blank#}5{#/blank#}apology. “Many times the person who hurts you may never think of {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(apologize),"says Dr. Fredric Luskin,{#blank#}7{#/blank#} wrote the book Forgive for Good. "They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don't see things the same way. So if you wait for people{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(say)sorry, you could be waiting a very long time." Next keep in mind that forgiveness does not {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(necessary)mean accepting the action of the person who upsets you. Instead, learn to look for the love,{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(beautiful)and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person's position. You may realize that he or she was acting out of carelessness.

    We've all turned to sad music to make us feel {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (good)at some point in our lives, but why does doubling down on the sadness help drag us out of the mire(泥沼)？

    A new study sheds light on what's going on inside our brains {#blank#}2{#/blank#}we match our music to our feelings. It looks like sad music can be enjoyable -rather than {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(simple) depressing- because it triggers positive memories that can help to lift our mood. Psychologist Adrian North from Curtin University in Australia says there {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (be)two groups of possible{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (explain)for why we enjoy listening to sad music like this: one from social psychology, and one from cognitive neuroscience(认知神经学).

    In terms of social psychology, one way of {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(think) about this is that we feel much better about {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (we) if we focus on someone who's doing even worse, a process known as downward social comparison. Everything's going to be okay, because this person {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(have) an even worse day than you are.

    Another theory from social psychology is that people like to listen {#blank#}9{#/blank#} music that mirrors the tone of their current life circumstances -the songs act as {#blank#}10{#/blank#}sort of tuning fork(音叉) for our own situations and they resonate(共鸣) with us
