What does the author suggest you do when you are faced with a mood-eater?

Passage3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Let us think about what situations people usually see as stressful. I will not touch on health issues, job loss, divorce, and other similar situation. Instead, I want to focus on what I call mood-eaters. By mood eaters, I mean situations in which we are able to choose our attitude instead of immediately getting stressed,According to my observations, many stressful situation are not as serious as they might seem. Here are some common situations that may influence your mood. You texted (发短信) your beloved and she or he did not respond. Your wi-fi connection was down right when you were watching TV series online. Your flight was delayed for an hour. Your boss asked you to stay for two more hours "just to finish that project of.".Of course, these situations can be unpleasant, But what if I told you that you do not need to fight this stress? My choice is not to fight, but to accept and tun the obstacle in my favor. Like in the example with the delayed flight. sure, you might be late, you are nervous, but does it rally help the situation if you just sit and wait for the next plane stressfully. When my flights are delayed, I never worry, because I always have some interesting and useful books with me. Or, say, your boss added some additional work to your schedule, This is a nightmare for sure. You have several ways to approach the situation. You can see it as an investment in your reputation; who knows, perhaps your agreement would positively affect your image in your boss' eyes? Or, if the boss abuses you with such requests this might be your chance to learn how to say "No" in the politest and the most delicate way. You might enjoy working in the completely empty office. You can come up with any other problem-solution scenario.Be creative instead of automatically becoming stressed and dissatisfied- What I was trying to tell you is that not any situation we used to call stressful is a stress. To a significant extent, it is your choice how to react to what is going on in your life; it is you who chooses how to behave and what to do. Most people think like this: These situations are bad, so I am going to become upset every time I face one." In reality, all situations are neutral, and only you are responsible for how you feel about them.Which of the following situations does the author consider as a mood-eater?

Which of the following is a most appropriate description of Miss Huang?

How did Miss Huang's idea of love differ from the conventional one?

How did Miss Huang go against the social conventions as a woman?

Why are women considered the most conservative according to the passage?

Passage2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.An eighteenth century wit said of Madame de Stael that since there were no women geniuses, it would be a mistake to call her a woman. Although one would hesitate to call Miss Huang Luying a woman genius, her friends would agree with me that in her heart she was every inch a man, in spite of the fact that she was one of the most feminine persons in appearance.I an not trying to define the nature of women; but to my mind, one of the marked feminine characteristic is a matter-of- fact mind. Their lives are organized by convenience, seldom by any definite ideals. Unlike men, who are more romantic in nature, they do not like to play with new ideas. For this reason, they have been rightly called the most conservative (保守的) elements in society.But no one would ever dream of calling Miss Huang a conservative! On the contrary, her life was but one long adventure. She broke many social conventions, because she was earnestly convinced that righteousness (正义) was on her side. Many persons would call her stubborn (固执的). Actually she knew stubbornness was one of her weaknesses. In her novel The Friend on the Seashore, she said of her heroine, whom everyone would recognize to be herself, that she was often foolishly brave. Such self-insight is indeed extremely rare! She was stubborn not in the sense of a spoilt child, but in the sense of a religious enthusiast. She dared to be herself, because she had her own belief. She knew that in living according to her ideals, she could never be wrong, so long as she was sure that she was guided by the true light.The true light, in this case, was tone other than love, love not as a simple pastime or as the satisfaction of one's physical nature, but as a religion, as life itself. She sacrificed everything for love, first by marrying a man who already had a wife, later by marrying, after the death of her first lover, a man who was at least ten years younger than herself. She quarreled with her mother, and was denied connection with her family, all because love was all.To those who do not know her personally Miss Huang will perhaps always be remembered as a writer of no mean ability; but to her friends, she will always remain in their memory as a woman who lived and died for love.What can we learn from Paragraph 1?

What does the author think of the elementary classroom?

What is the author doing in the elementary classroom?

What are the three children trying to do?

What is the fourth boy working on in the four-person group?

Passage1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.I have come for a visit to an elementary classroom for six- to nine-year-olds. My strongest impression of this classroom is the purposefulness of the children in their cooperative efforts.As I settle in to observe for the morning, I begin to sense that, for these children, relating to each other and working are a unified (一致的) experience.The children's voices are low, and I can only overhear (偶尔听到) the directed conversation of the children at the table closest to me. I realize that the way the children use their voices contributes to the atmosphere of respect and purposefulness in this elementary classroom.I hear one of the four boys next to me announce "200-pound explosive shells”. He is pointing to a picture in one of the opened books on the table in front of him. “Did anything blow up?" one of the boys asks. All the boys look over at the opened book Two of the four boys are taking notes. A third one is making a complicated pencil drawing from an ill of a particular model of train. The fourth boy is using graph paper（方格纸） to compute a math problem.A few feet away from me, three children are sticking pins into holes on a poster board map of Europe. The pins have tiny red. labels attached with the names of countries on them. “AIbania," I overhear one boy say as he reads a label to his working partners and puts it on the map.Just beyond these children, five others have newspapers spread over a large table. One of the children walks over to the assistant, carrying what looks to me to be the sports section of one of the newspapers. These children must be following basketball scores or related sports statistics.The only other table on which I can see the work clearly is next to this newspaper" table. This is a small table with only two children. Their books are standing up on end so that I can see, even across the room, that they are doing a report on jungle birds and animals.Such is an elementary class! The children are ell-occupied, learning, concentrated, interested, and purposeful Every subject area but music is covered. This classroom is so different from my own elementary shooling. I want to know how this particular teacher helps to facilitate this outcome with this particular group of children.What strongly impresses the author in the elementary classroom?
