When I was a boy, I used to love walking in the woods around my home．My mom warned me several times never to travel so far that I would lose sight of the house．Being a typical boy, however, I soon found myself hiking further and further away, testing just how far I could go into the woods without getting lost．After losing my way once for two hours, though, I decided that I had better leave a trail the next time I went for a walk．

The very next day I decided to try it．I walked into the woods until the house was out of sight．Then I broke a small branch on a young tree to mark my place．I wandered further in and broke another limb and then another．In a few spots where there were no limbs small enough, I snapped the heads off the low plants that were growing where the sunlight broke through the trees．After a while I finally got tired and decided to head back．Turning around I easily found my tracks, but instead of being proud I felt sad．I could see the trail of destruction I had left in the woods going on and on．Looking at the broken limbs and dead flowers I wondered if God was disappointed in me and I vowed never to do that again．Instead, I started to cherish my times alone in the woods with nature．I’d sit by the streams and listen to them sing．I’d watch the birds and squirrels．I’d bend down to smell the flowers．And I even buried an acorn or two hoping that one day an Oak might grow．

There is an old Native American Saying that goes “We will be known forever by the tracks we leave．” As I have grown older and wiser, I have done my best to never leave a trail of destruction in my life as I did in the woods that day．I have instead tried to leave tracks of love, kindness, goodness, and compassion and I have strived to show others that they can do the same．May you always leave tracks of joy as you follow your own trail of love．

1.When the boy headed back from the woods, he felt sad because ______

A．he lost his way in the woods

B．he could find his tracks so easily

C．he left many trails of destruction

D．God was very disappointed in him

2.The boy took off some branches to ______．

A．protect himself

B．make his way out

C．see the sun clearly

There are all sorts of good sensible reasons to avoid getting angry. Not only does it make us feel bad, it also makes us do stupid things without noticing the risks and it can be self-destructive( 毁坏性的). 1. But like all emotions, anger has its purposes, which can be used for good effects.

Anger is a motivating force.

In fact anger itself is a kind of positive energy and a powerful motivating force. 2. When we see something as beneficial, we want it more when we are angry. So, when used right, constructive anger can make us feel strong and powerful and help push us on to get what we want.

3.

It may sound like a strange thing to say, but angry people have something in common with happy people. That's because both tend to expect favorable results. By comparison those experiencing more fear are more pessimistic(悲观的) about the future and expect further terrors.

Anger can benefit relationships.

Society tells us anger is dangerous and we should hide it .The problem is that when we hide our anger, our partner doesn't know he's done something wrong. And so he keeps doing it. 4. The expression of anger, if reasonable and aimed at finding a solution, can actually benefit and strengthen relationships.

Anger provides self-understanding.

Anger can also provide understanding into ourselves, if we allow it. Getting angry leads to a positive outcome. Anger help discover our own faults. If we can notice when we get angry and why, then we can learn what to do to improve our lives. 5.

A．And that doesn't do our relationship any good.

B．Anger can turn us on and thus push on towards our goals in the face of problems and barriers.

C．Anger reduces violence.

D．Angry people are more optimistic.

E．Most of us treat our anger as though it's unreasonable, unshowable and unmentionable.

F．That's because it's a very strong social signal that a situation needs to be solved.

G．Anger can encourage self-change.

Dear Editor,

Recent reports have indicated an additional 1, 400 Marines（海军陆战队）are being sent to Afghanistan in the coming weeks. This means it costs over $1 million annually on the ground over there. I do place a higher level of blame on the policymakers who send soldiers off to kill and be killed in the field. I think the human race needs to think more about killing.

One needs to do the introspection: “Are these wars JUST?” I believe that all of our wars since 1945 have been illegal, under international law as well. I suggest that all your readers examine their conscience as it relates to the matter of making war. The fact that many soldiers are motivated by a strong sense of duty does not give them some unqualified(绝对的) moral right to support these wars or any other. It’s responsible for all the troops, and the entire population, to determine whether the Afghan or Iraq wars are in accordance with(符合) the development of the state.

I wish someone would give me one or more logical reasons why we are still fighting in Afghanistan and what our goals are. I certainly don’t understand it and neither do many who are more knowledgeable than I.

Outsiders have tried unsuccessfully for centuries to conquer Afghanistan, and we seem to be no more successful. We are trying to develop a stable central government, but the country is badly divided into ethnic and tribal groups, and the current government is corrupt（腐败的）. Moreover, we are apparently regarded as undesirable occupiers by many of its people, most notably(尤其) the Taliban(塔利班).

If we are to continue spending billions every year in Afghanistan and killing hundreds of our people and many of theirs, our government must provide us with a reasonable explanation of why we are doing so and what we can expect to accomplish.

George Myers
