26、within a day or two. Walk it offExercise is the most popular bad-mood buster. A person whos in a bad mood his low energy and high tension. Taking a fast ten-minute walk, or doing some quick exercise can do wonders towards changing that bad mood. Tune it outListening to your favorite music for a whil
27、e can also make tension go away quickly, because music starts associations with past positive experiences weve had. Give yourself a pep talkStop and listen to whats on your mind. Bad moods are often started by too many negative thoughts. Write them all down on paper-the pessimistic（悲观的）messages youv

29、 easy way to visualize: close your eyes and picture a favorite place, such as the beach. Another simple way to be against distress（痛苦）is to make a to-do list. One reason for being in a bad mood is feeling you have no options. By taking control over certain areas, you realize youre not helpless. You
30、can make changes in your mood and life. Avoid things that wont improve your mood.

34、 of different schools, because their parents have to move around the country, probably make slow progress in their studies. There are also signs, says Professor Martin, that an unusually large number of such children are mentally affected. The Professor says, “Its true, my personal feeling is that c
35、hildren should stay in one school. However, our findings are based on research and not on any personal feelings that I or my assistants may have on the subject.” Captain Thomas James, an Army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of 2 children, said, “Ive never heard such rubbish. Taki
36、ng me for example, no harm is done to the education of my children who change school regularly-if they keep to the same system. In my experience-and Ive known quite a few of them- Army children are as well-adjusted(调整) as any others, if not more so. What the professor doesnt appear to notice is the
37、fact that in such situations children will adapt (适应) much better than grown-ups.” When this was put to Professor Martin, he said that at no time had his team suggested that all such children were mentally affected in some way, but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency (倾向). “Ou
38、r finding shows that while the very bright child can deal with regular change without harming his or her general progress in studies, the majority of children suffer from constantly having to enter a new learning situation.”64.

41、rmy children are generally better adjusted than any othersB. army children are usually less experienced than any othersC. children can adapt more easily and quickly than grown-upsD. children can adapt as easily and quickly as grown-upsDSome people argue that the pressures on international sportsmen
42、and sportswomen kill the essence(本质) of sport-seeking for personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. A single persons representing his country cannot afford to think about en
43、joying himself; he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nations hopes, dreams and fame.A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the worlds most important sport. It is even more important now that the United States is seriously taking it up. Winning the World
44、Cup is perhaps the greatest of international sporting success. Mention “Argentina” to someone and the chances are that hell think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup “put Argentina on the map”.Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational(失去理性的) about the World Cup. People in England fe
45、lt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1996. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses and spent all their money traveling to Argentina where the finals were played.So am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sports? Certainly not
46、! Do the Argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved that most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But its known that you won, and that in one way at least your country is best.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选
