Confidence(自信) is very important in daily life. It can help you to develop a healthy attitude (态度). A study shows that the people who are more confident are much happier. They can have more chance to make themselves successful(成功的). But how to be more confident? Here are some suggestions(建议):
·Speak loud  
When you are not confident, you can't do well what you want to do. You speak in a voice so low that other people can hardly hear you. Try to speak loud enough so that people can hear you clearly. The high voice can help you become more confident.
·Play sports  
Physical exercise makes you tired but completely relaxed. Astrong body helps you be full of confidence.
·Encourage(鼓励) yourself 
Write down a list(目录) of things you did during the day to see how many things you have done well. Did you finish your homework? Did you tell a joke that made everybody laugh? Give yourself praise for the good things you've done.
·Get rid of  fear 
Fear(恐惧) comes along with failure(失败). But it's easy to overcome (克服) if you know that failure is part of your life. Don't hide your head just because you said something stupid last time. Try to start again and believe you can do better.
·Pick up a hobby  
If you like singing, sing as much as you can.  In some ways, a hobby can make you outstanding(杰出的). And it will make you happy and confident.

Do you want to live a happier, less stressful (有压力的) life? Try laughing for no reason at all. That’s how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world — and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.
(1)The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria. “Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr. Kataria. “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing — it’s the universal language. We want people to feel happy with their lives.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide.
(2)Many doctors are also interested in the effects (效果) of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body.(3) Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.
So, what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest — I wasn’t interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha,” while looking at each other. However, our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake laughter and real laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects.
Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real — and some people just couldn’t stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results!

What is to blame(归咎于) for the smog (雾霾) hitting China? The question that has bothered people for a long time got an answer recently.
According to Wang Yuesi, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), about 40 percent of PM2.5 pollutants in Beijing are the result of coal (煤炭) burning, from both local and outside the city.
Surrounded by Hebei, a major area for coal burning, about 20 percent of Beijing’s pollutants come from outside the city. And we know there are many steel(钢铁) factories in Hebei, too. According to the CAS, each year Beijing burns 23 million tons of coal while Tianjin burns more than 70 million tons and Hebei a huge 270 million tons.
“Coal burning is a primary source of sulfur oxide (SO2, 二氧化硫) which is the primary cause of PM2.5,” said Wang.
The report of the CAS says that in the Jingjinji area (Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei), coal burning is responsible(负责任的) for 9 percent of primary particles (颗粒) that make up PM2.5. The coal burning also emits (排放) 69 percent of the total SO2 and 47 percent of nitrogen oxide (氮氧化物), which will greatly concentrate (加强浓度) the PM2.5 particles in the air.
According to the air pollution plan, the Jingjinji area should reduce(减少) its PM2.5 concentration by 25 percent by 2017 from 2012 levels. To meet the standards, the report suggests great cuts in coal use in the area.
“This is a very great goal but it is achievable with cooperation(合作) between cities instead of cities working on their own,” said Wang.
