5 . Whether someone makes you angry, you’re upset with yourself, or you’re just having a bad day, one of the best ways to direct your angry energy is through exercise. That angry energy can build inside of you.
Running is a very effective technique to calm anxieties. The focus it takes to run and the endorphins your body releases will take your mind off whatever is frustrating you. Be sure to adequately warm up and stretch before you run!
A challenging yoga practice is a great way to control your anger to help you get through it. You may be so frustrated that getting started in a yoga practice may seem impossible.
Cycling is a serious cardiovascular (心血管的) workout and you can use your anger to help you push through the difficulty of it. When you go for a ride outdoors, the extra focus it takes to navigate the outside world can provide a helpful distraction from your frustration.
A.It’s advisable to find a scenic route. |
B.Be sure to obey traffic laws and wear a helmet. |
C.Boxing is a great way to relieve your frustration. |

9 . Paris with My Grandmother
Stood by her stove, watching her cook, I’d asked Nan if she had any regrets. She’d surprised me by saying instantly, “I always wish I’d gone to Paris.” It was the way she made it sound like an impossibility. It was as if the fact that she’d not gone there with Granddad meant she would never go.
As this day approached, I became increasingly anxious. Besides worries about something going wrong or an emergency of some sort, I was concerned about how it would be for just the two of us to be together for 60 hours straight. Although we often talked with an ease and enthusiasm that delighted us both, our conversations didn’t always catch light.
We spent the afternoon wandering the streets and leisurely taking coffee. After dinner, we walked until a lamplit square brought us to a stop. We ordered drinks and sat chatting, watching the night’s crowd stroll by.
Seated with our drinks, Nan said finally, “Your Granddad would have loved Paris.”
A.Paris is a city you must walk in |
B.But how would we travel together |
C.The silences were long and comfortable |
D.The Paris of her imagination came to life |
E.That was what made me decide to take her |
F.Then she led the conversation further backwards |
G.And when had we ever spent longer than a few hours alone |
The Feel-Good Shoebox
Catherine sat on her bed with her chin in her hands. “Why aren't you getting ready for Grandma's birthday party?”asked Mother.
“I can't bake like Sylvia or knit like Anne,” Catherine grumbled. “They made good presents. All I made for her is an ugly card.” “It's a lovely card. And no one can be good at everything,” said Mother. She sat on the bed next to Catherine. “When I was your age, I felt sad when I couldn't do certain things. But one day Grandma showed me the shoebox game, and it made me feel a lot better.” Catherine frowned (皱眉). “How can a shoebox make me feel better?”“You'll see,” said Mother. She disappeared down the hall, then came back carrying a shoe box, a pencil, paper, and scissors.
Catherine watched as Mother cut several pieces of paper into squares. “Nôw, I want you to write down all the things you can do,” said Mother. “Like what?” asked Catherine. “Why not start with things you've learned in school? Give it some thought while I ice Grandma's birthday cake.”
Catherine sat for a while wrinkling (起皱纹) and unwrinkling her eyebrows.Slowly Catherine began to write and write. Before long she had written on every square of paper. She was so busy that she didn't hear Mother come into the room.“My goodness!"said Mother.“Do you think they'll all fit in the shoebox?”“I hope so,” said Catherine. “It was fun thinking of all the stuff I can do.”“And the next time you feel sad because you can't do something, your feel-good shoebox will remind you of how much you can do-just as mine did when I was a little girl,” said Mother,“Now let's finish getting dressed for Grandma's party.”
