    Bad days happen to us all. Often a day that starts out bad just continues to get worse. Sometimes there’s a “domino effect(多米诺效应)” with bad events. For example, you sleep through the alarm, so you’re stressed. And you will sit in the bad traffic, which will also make you late for work, etc.
    How can we turn a bad day to a good day? Here are some ideas that have worked for me:
    Smile a lot
    Smiling a lot will help you feel relaxed. Research has shown that smiling produces three useful chemicals which make us feel good.
    Talk to a good friend
    Keeping bad or unhappy things in your mind is not a good idea. Talking to someone who cares and listen really does help us feel better, too.
    Concentrate on your good things
    It’s hard to concentrate on how bad things are when you’re concentrating on how good things are! Think of 10 or more things you’re thankful for, and you’ll achieve a whole new outlook(人生观) on your day.
    Get some exercise
    If you can, go for a walk. Exercising will help you feel better. Excising can get your day back to be normal again.
    Make the day a challenge
    If you make yourself think of the day as a challenge, you’ll start to do all the things you can to make your day better.
    根据材料内容选择最佳答案，并将其标号填入题前括号内。
    【小题1】According to the passage, the “domino effect” is an effect that______.

    A．turns a good day to a bad day
    B．makes one person affect another
    C．turns bad things into good things
    D．gets one event to cause other similar events to happen
    【小题2】Study shows that smiling produces three useful chemicals which make us feel______.
    A．terribleB．relaxed
    C．stressedD．worried
    【小题3】According to the writer, if we consider a bad day as a challenge, we’ll ______.
    A．try our best to do things better
    B．give up doing things

    If you have a brother or sister, you already know you are different from each other. You live together in the same house and the same parents, but you have different personalities(性格).
    Why is this? One possible reason is the way your parent treat you.
    First –born children receive all the attention from their parents. Most families have twice as many photos of a first-born than any other child. Parents usually give first-born more responsibility and depend on them to take care of younger brothers and sisters. As a result, first -born are often responsible, hard-working, and jealous(嫉妒的). They often want to do well at school and work. There are more first-born American Presidents, for example, George Bush, George Washington, and Lyndon Baines Johnson than second or last-born children.
    When a second child arrives, parents are more relaxed. The second child has to compete(媲美) with the first-born for the parents’ attention and love. Their children often choose different sports and hobbies to do well at school and work, but have to be creative to get their family’s attention. They are often friendly and cool. Many famous talk-show hosts were born last.

    A．outgoing and jealous
    B．cool and friendly

    A．the second child is very similar to the first-born child
    B．brothers and sisters usually have the same personalities
    C．it’s easy for the second child to get his or her parents’ attention
