On the wall in my mother’s bedroom there was a photo, which showed a soldier with a gun. Below the photo was the word “Speaking”.

“Who’s that soldier called Speaking?” I asked one day.

“He was Harold.” She said. “He was my only brother. When the Second World War began, Harold was eighteen. I was twelve then, and my sisters were ten and nine”.

“Harold liked to play with us, and we often quarreled. When we quarreled, we said：We’re not speaking to you. But before long we were all happy again, and then we said: I’m speaking now. Are you speaking to me?”

“When the war broke out, Harold joined the army. A month later, he came to see us. He brought the gun to show us. Then he went miles away to the war. We didn’t see him for three years, three long, empty years. We didn’t often hear from him. But one day in May there was a loud bang（砰）on the front door…”

“I ran to open it. It was Harold! He was an old Harold, a thinner Harold. He looked at me with his two green eyes and smiled. That smile was just the same as before, then he said one word: ‘speaking’”.

“I didn’t…I couldn’t…answer. I just fell into his arms and he dropped his gun. He stayed with us for a month. We played all our old games again. Then he went back to the war, and never came back again. So I wrote the word on the photo.”

A new study has found evidence of aggressive(富于攻击性的)behaviors in children who drink four or more servings of soft drinks every day. Information for the study came from the mothers of 3, 000 5-year-olds.

Researchers asked the women to keep a record of how many servings of soft drinks their children drank over a two-month period. The women were also asked to complete a checklist of their children’s behaviors.

The researchers found that 43 percent of the boys and girls drank at least one daily serving of soda, 4 percent of the youngsters had four or more servings of soda to drink every day.

Shakira Suglia is with Columbia University’s Mailman School of Public Health in New York City. She worked on the study with researchers from the University of Vermont and Harvard University School of Public Health. She says they found that children who drank the most soda were more than two times as likely as those who drank no soda to show signs of aggression.

“For the children who consumed four or more servings of soft drinks per day, we see an association between aggressive behaviors, attention problems and withdrawn behaviors. ”

The aggressive behaviors included destroying possessions belonging to others, taking part in fights and physically attacking people.

Doctor Suglia says it’s not clear why young children who drink a lot of soda have behavior problems.

“We can’t prove that this is a direct cause and effect relationship, having said that, there are a lot of ingredients in soda, a lot of ingredients that have not been examined in relation to behaviors. ”

Earlier studies of young adults have found the highest sugar levels in those who carry weapons and show signs of negative social behaviors.

1.What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?

A. The aim of the research.

B. The members of the research.

C. The method of the research.

D. The organizer of the research.

2.Which of the following is TRUE about the study?

A. Researchers had face-to-face talks with some children.

B. Mothers played an important part in the study.

C. Half of the children drank one daily serving of soda.

D. The result of the study is unknown.

3.What does the underlined word mean?

A. Bought. B. Drank. C. Fought. D. Studied.

4.What can we learn from Doctor Suglia?

A. The relation between aggressive behaviors and soft drinks is not clear.

B. Children who drink a lot of soda must have behavior problems.

C. There are a lot of ingredients examined in relation to behaviors.

D. Children shouldn’t drink soda.

If you took the strengths of others and compared them to your weaknesses, would this make you feel good? The funny thing is that this is what most of us do at one time or another—and some of us do it pretty often. It’s a sure-fire recipe for a drop in self-confidence and for unhappiness. So how can we stop comparing ourselves with others? Here are some tips I’ve found useful.

Awareness

Most often we do these social comparisons without realizing we’re doing it. It’s a natural act, I suppose. So the solution is to become aware. If you focus on these thoughts for a few days, it will become much easier with practice, and soon it’ll be hard not to notice.

Stop yourself

Once you realize you’re making these comparisons, stop yourself. Don’t feel bad—just admit the thought, and gently change the focus.

Count your blessings

Focus on what you do have, and on what you are already blessed with. Count what you have, not what you don’t have. Think about how lucky you are to have what you have, to have the people in your life who care about you. If you always want what others have, you will never have enough. You will always want more. That’s an endless cycle, and it will never lead to happiness. Instead, learn to realize that what you have is already enough.

Focus on your strengths

Instead of looking at your weaknesses, ask yourself what your strengths are. Be proud of them. Work on using them to your best advantages.

No one is perfect—we all know that. But we seem to feel bad when we don’t reach perfection. You aren’t perfect and you never will be. Keep trying to improve, but don’t think you’ll ever be the “perfect person”. If you realize that imperfection is what makes you who you are, you are already perfect.
