1 . Over the past ten years, great changes have taken place in the countryside of China. Bacha Village in Heilongjiang Province is one of them. The people there have become rich with the development of the tourism (旅游业).
You Mingfen, a 57-year-old local woman, opened a hotel in her own two-floor house. Her family also has a fishing boat. Her husband can use it to get the fresh fish, which will be offered to the guests from all over China. The fish skin and bones can also be made into hand-made gifts. They are very popular with the tourists.
“The busiest tourism season in Bacha lasts from May to October, which can bring us more than 50, 000 yuan a year,” she said, “In winter, we can stay in a warm room and enjoy the leisure time. It was impossible before. At that time, we almost depended on fishing for a living.”

After turning 16 in the United States, a person can be employed (雇佣), get a driver’s license and leave home. Many high school students learn to drive and get part-time jobs soon after celebrating their 16th birthday. At 18, people in the United States can vote (投票选举) as a citizen (公民) and join the army, but they are not allowed to go into bars to buy beer or wine until they are 21.
In many Latin American countries, a young woman’s 15th birthday is important. At this age, she is no longer regarded as a girl, but a woman. To mark this special day, families with 15-year-old daughters hold a celebration called a quinceanera (成人礼). The family will have a big party and many guests are invited.

7 . Are you emotional (情绪激动的)? Do you often have strong feelings? How do you deal with bad emotions?
We feel angry or unhappy about the things we did or did not achieve, about the things we cannot have, and many other things. It seems that everyone carries their own bad moods (情绪). But neither unhappiness nor anger can help us. Over time, they can be heavy weights on our shoulders.
These bad moods don’t do anything good for us at all. So you might ask yourself—is it possible to put down this heavy burden (负担) and give yourself a break? It is quite possible. Start by actually learning about your feelings. How do they get inside of us? Why do we carry them for so long instead of putting them down? Can we live without them?
By thinking about our bad moods, we can find healthy ways to deal with them. Unhealthy behaviors are not the way to do this. They provide no relaxation. Instead, there are better ways to deal with them. One of the best ways is forgiveness (原谅).
Forgiveness is a powerful tool. We should forgive ourselves first. We shouldn’t keep bad moods inside. We must also forgive others who have made us unhappy or angry. This is not always easy. But when we learn to forgive ourselves, it becomes easier to forgive others as well.
There is nothing good about carrying years of emotional burdens. By forgiving ourselves and others, we can abandon our burdens and feel better about ourselves. When you do this, you will start to feel a lot lighter. Years of heaviness will be magically lifted! You’ll start to feel like you have more energy and you’ll be much happier with your life.
