As a teenager, you’re trying to learn who you are. You’re going through mental and physical changes. You’re dealing with different kinds of stress and trying to succeed in school.
The good news is that though the teen years are tough, there are skills you can learn to make them a lot easier.
If you’re a teen and trying to manage your feelings better, here are a few skills for you to deal with your feelings.
Name the feeling.
What feeling are you experiencing? For example, are you sad, stressed. Angry, joyful or excited?
Accept what you’re feeling.
Many people worry that their feelings will increase. So they are not willing to accept them, hoping that they’ll just go away. However, that’s impossible. Remind yourself that it’s OK to feel your feelings.
Become familiar with your feelings.
To better understand your feelings, you should pay attention to your feelings all over the day. You may record how you’re feeling in the morning, afternoon and at night on a piece of paper. Next to your feeling, also write down where you notice it in your body.
Express your feelings.
Expressing a feeling is a good way to reduce it. For example, you can express your feelings by crying, exercising, writing about them or talking to someone you trust. Just be sure that whatever activity you choose, it doesn’t hurt you or anyone else.
At different times in your life, you’ll experience different difficulties. But by learning some helpful skills, you’ll be able to live a comfortable life.

In 1896, the first modern Olympic Games were held in Athens, Greece. From then on, many countries successfully held the Olympics, such as England, Germany, the U.S.A., Spain and Australia. After more than a hundred years, the Games returned to his hometown in the year of 2004.
When a country hosted the Olympic Games, they always made an emblem(会徽). The emblem of the Athens 2004 Olympic Games was a white circle of olive branches(橄榄枝) in the sky.
In 2008, Beijing hosted the Olympics. Its emblem is “Jing”. It means the capital of China and it is also like a runner or dancer. The running figure(人物)of the emblem shows the spirit(精神)of the Olympics:Faster,higher and stronger.
Eric and Chen first met in their Maths class at an American college. Chen was an international student from China. He wanted to learn about American culture and hoped he and Eric would become good friends. At first, Eric seemed friendly. He always greeted Chen warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Chen. He even invited Chen to eat lunch with him. But after the term was over and they were in different classes, Eric seemed more distant. They didn’t see each other very much at college. One day Chen called Eric ,But Eric didn’t seem very interested in talking to him, Chen was hurt by Eric’s change of attitude（态度）.“Eric said we were friends.”Chen said.“I thought friends were friends forever. As a foreigner, he doesn’t understand the way Americans view friendship.
Americans use the word “friend” in a very general way . Their friendship is based on common interests. When the shared activity ends, the friendship may die. Now as Eric and Chen are no longer classmates, their“friendship”has changed.
In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long tie between two people—friendship develops slowly, since it is built to last. American friendship develops quickly, and it may change just as quickly.
Learning how Americans view friendship can help non-Americans remove misunderstandings（误解）. It can help them make friends in the American way.

More and more students want to study in “hot” majors. As a result, many students give up their interests and study in those areas such as foreign languages, international business and law, etc. Fewer and fewer students choose scientific majors, such as math, physics and biology, and art majors, like history, Chinese and philosophy. Only a few students can study in these “hot” majors, because the number of these “hot” majors is limited(有限的).
If one has no interest in his work or study, how can he do well? I learned this from one of my classmates. He is from the countryside. His parents are farmers. Though he likes biology, he chose international business. He wants to live a life which is different from that of his parents.
In the end, he found he was not interested in doing business. He found all the subjects tiresome. Maybe this wouldn’t have happened if he had chosen his major according to his own interest. Choosing a major in university does not decide one’s whole life. Majors which are not “hot” today may become the “hot” majors of tomorrow. Choosing your major according to your own interest is the best way to succeed.
根据短文内容，按要求完成各题According to the text, what are the “hot” majors today?
Why can’t many students study in the “hot” majors?
How can people do their work and study well?
According to the writer, if you want to succeed what should you do?
Does the writer think that people should give up their own interest in order to choose the “hot” majors?
We are students of Fuxing Middle School. In our school, there are many teachers and students. There are some trees, too. There are forty-five students in our class, twenty–four girls and twenty-one boys. Our classroom is big. There are six windows and two doors. There are four pictures on the wall. On the front(前面的) wall there is a big blackboard. Our desks and chairs are new. Our classroom is very nice. --What’s the school’s name? It’s .
--How many students are there in the class?-- There are .
–Is the classroom big or small? –It’s .
–What’s on the wall? –There are four on the wall.

Now there is a family problem. Nearly every parent says that we never grow up. In fact we are probably 16 or 17 years old. In their eyes, we are always little ones and often do wrong things. For example, when I need to stay at home alone, they always worry about me and my life without them.
Most parents always think that they have offered the best things they can to make their children live in a comfortable world. They buy their children pretty clothes, cool shoes, everything that they can for their dear children. In return, they only want their children to get good results in the exams.
But why still can’t their children understand them? Does it mean that we still want more material things? No. As a matter of fact, what we want is a true family. What does a true family mean”? I think it means a place where we can hide ourselves from the cold world outside. From here, we can get warmth, we can get consolation(安慰), and we can get happiness. And one important thing is that we should be stronger and more confident in the outside world because we know that we have a true family.
So I think that parents should sit down to talk with their children to let know that they have a true family, so the children and their parents could understand each other more and more. Then, parents will not treat their children as little ones. In the eyes of most parents, children never ____________and seldom do_____________.
Most parents always think they _______________ the best things for their children to live in the world _______________.
Children still _________________their parents because what children need most is not material things but _________________.
Most parents want their children to get _________________in the exams while their children want to get _______________.
The way to __________________ between parents and children is that they should have more communication with each other. Then, no children will ______________as little ones.

Teamwork Is the Key to Business Success
Today most businesses are looking for people who are good team players. The ability to work with and get on with other people is so important that many large organizations spend millions of dollars on finding the right people for their business.
At the recent Success in Business Conference, some of Europe’s most successful businessmen told us how they found good team players.
“A good team needs people with different skills and talents. It is good to bring new ideas into the organization. The best people can work with other people and develop ideas with a team. It is important that everyone uses their talents in the business. I look for people who have the skills and talents my business needs, but they must be able to work in a team.”(John Brown, Design Works)
“At interviews I like to bring a group together and look for people who work well in a group. A good team player is usually friendly and easy to talk to. They are also good at listening to other people. They are generous and happy to share their ideas. ”(Lee Chung, Computer World.)
“Most teams need a mixture of people. It is great to have people with ideas but you also need people who get things done on time. A team made up of people that all have the same skills would not work. You need to know what you are looking for.”(Jane Lin, Lin Electricals)
“I look for people who can bring out the best in other people. In a group you can see the people that know how to get a team working together. They understand teams and they can make them work. A good team is the key to success.”(Jim Khan, Northern Bank)
Everyone agreed that teamwork is the key to business success!

How do you pay for things? Do you usually use cash (现金), or do you like to pay by credit card(信用卡)? If you are like a lot of people, you probably have at least one credit card. Also, you might use it more often than you probably should.
Credit cards first became popular in the 1920s. At that time, businesses, such as hotels and companies, gave credit cards to their best customers (顾客). Unlike today’s credit cards, customers could only use these cards at the store or business that gave out the card. Customers had to pay for things in full. They couldn’t pay for something a little at a time.
In 1950, a businessman named MCNamara started a credit card company-Diners Club. Unlike earlier credit cards, this card could be used by customers at many restaurants. Customers liked the card because they didn’t have to carry a lot of cash with them. Restaurant owners liked the card, too. Why? They found out that customers usually spent more money when they could pay by credit cards.
In its first year of business, Diners Club provided 200 cards. The customers who got the cards from the diners Club could use them at 27 different restaurants. Today, Diners Club has 8 million customers, and they can use their cards in over 7.6 million businesses in more than 200 countries.

CCTV reported that every year Chinese people throw away a lot of food which can feed 200 million people for a year.
Do we have too much food? Of course not. According to the UN World Food Programme, there were 900million hungry people all over the world in 2013. About six million children die of hunger every year.
So think about it. We should say no to people who waste food every day. An old saying goes, “Every grain on the plate comes from hard work.” It tells us everybody must save food.
Luckily, a number of people have realized the importance of saving food. Li Hong, a waitress in a restaurant in Jiangsu, once lost her job because she took some leftover(剩余的) food home for her son. But many people were by her side and criticized (批评) the waste of food.
What should we do in our daily life to stop wasting food? We can do many things to prevent it from happening. Here are some tips:
Don't order too much food in a restaurant. Only order as much as you can eat. If you can’t eat all the food you order, take the rest of it home.
Don’t be too picky(挑剔的) about food. some food may not be tasty, but put body need it.
Don’t keep too much food at home, especially for fruit and vegetables. How many hungry people were there over the world in 2013?
____________________________________________________ Why did Li Hong lose her job?
