内蒙古赤峰市2024年中考英语真题
Dear Harry, I didn't do very well in a speech last week. I got nervous and forgot most things that I prepared to say. It's been a week now, but I still feel upset. What can I do? Love, Andy |
Dear Andy, It's OK. Don't feel bad about things that have already happened. Just think how you can do better in the future. When I was at school, I was chosen many times to talk to a large number of people. First, I chose a topic that I loved for my speech. If possible, you can have a try. It can help you feel less nervous. Second, I would make sure I knew everything I had to say. I tried my best to remember my materials as well as possible. So a good preparation is necessary. Last, I concentrated on my main idea. When your attention is highly focused, anxiety (焦虑) will be under control. You can make it your goal to pass your idea on to the other students. Take every opportunity you have to improve this skill. I'm sure you will give a wonderful speech soon. Love, Harry |

I'm Zhang Danfeng. I'm 14 years old. I sometimes get angry with my friends or my parents. I sometimes say some bad words to them, but I feel sorry later. What should I do?
Anger (愤怒) is a normal feeling that everyone has sometimes. It's normal to feel angry when something bad happens. But it's not right to hurt yourself or others because of your anger. You should try to find out why you are angry. Sometimes you may not know what makes you angry. You may need to think about what happened to you recently or you can also talk to someone who can help you. Finding out the reason can help you calm down (镇定) and solve the problem quickly. —Li Ming, 14 |
When you're angry, it's easy to say some bad words. I think you can try to think before you speak. Take a few minutes to organize your thoughts(想法) before you say something. —Li Zihao, 15 |
There are many things you can do when you feel angry. For example, you can take a deep breath (深吸一口气), count to 10, go for a walk, draw a picture, do some sports or shout in the open air. If you do any of these, you'll feel better soon. —Zheng Xin, 13 |
