【题目】We are much happier in our new house because it has a large garden, and you know how enthusiastic we both are about gardening. When we moved in a month ago, Mary wanted to get a dog to keep out burglars. However, we finally decided that it would be cheaper to put an iron grille in front of the door and get a burglar alarm.
Last week, I went to a shop and bought an alarm for just over 200. It consists of a control unit with three smaller units. I put the control unit in the lounge and put the other units in place by the front door, back door and lounge windows.
That night I soon fell asleep because I was confident that no one could get into our house undetected. At about 1:50 a.m. I woke up suddenly and heard the siren. It was like an ambulance driving right through our bedroom. I couldn’t leave the siren on all night. I went downstairs in the dark. When I reached the bottom of the stairs, I switched on the light and looked around. Oh my gosh. The back door was unlocked. I rushed to lock it and it was just at that exact moment that the ‘burglar’ disappeared behind a curtain. Guess what? It was an ordinary house lizard(蜥蜴).Apparently the alarm system had been made for American or European homes in which lizards are never seen. I switched the alarm off and sat down to watch. A few moments later, a lizard ran across a wall, right in front of one of the alarm units.
I won’t bother to finish this story but if you’d like a burglar alarm system free of charge, just let us know.

【题目】At times, our worries and anxieties can defeat us. 【1】 Here is a brief list of techniques that you can use to help gain a better viewpoint on things during the anxious moments.
【2】 A person should take a deep breath and try to find something to do for a few minutes to get their mind off the problem. A person could get some fresh air, listen to some music, or do an activity that will give them a fresh perspective on things.
Remember that our fearful thoughts are made to seem worse and can make the problem worse. 【3】 When unexpectedly having thoughts that make you fearful or anxious, challenge these thoughts by asking yourself positive questions that will maintain objectivity and common sense.
Be smart in how you deal with fears and anxieties. Do not try to deal with everything all at once. When facing a current or upcoming task that makes you anxious, break the task into small ones. 【4】
Remember that all the worrying in the world will not change anything. Most of what you worry about never comes true. 【5】 Then you should leave everything else in the hands of God.
It is not easy to deal with all the fears and worries. When your fears and anxieties have the best of you, try to calm down and then get the facts of the situation. The key is to take it slow. All you can do is doing your best each day, hope for the best, and when something does happen, take it easy. Take it one step at a time and things will work out well at last.
A. When feeling anxious, stop what you are doing and try to do something relaxing.
B. This will give you the confidence to manage your anxiety.
C. Instead of worrying about something that probably won’t happen, concentrate on what you are able to do.
D. The next time you fell depressed, review your list and think about the good things that you have in your life.
E. A good way to manage your worry is to challenge your negative thinking with positive statements and realistic thinking.
F. In addition, our worries can change our understanding of what is reality and what is not.

【题目】Writing journals has been one of the most helpful things I’ve ever done. Through writing journals I’ve not only learned a lot about myself, but also removed a lot of obsessive (烦恼的) thoughts, by writing them down and considering them.
Journals give you a place to write down your honest thoughts without being afraid of what people will think of you. There are some ideas for writing journals:
Draw pictures
Write poetry or short stories
Goals: daily and long-term
Respond to a magazine article that you are interested in
Write about obsessive thoughts and try to find what’s causing them
A list of things you are proud of (It can always increase your confidence when you need it)
Make a pro/con (赞成/反对) list when you’re trying to make a decision: most of the time the decision will start to be clearer afterwards
The best way to start is to decide where you want to write your journal. (Though it’s called the journal, it doesn’t mean you can only do it in a “journal”) . If you like the traditional style of journals, then use a notebook, blank paper or graph paper, whichever you like best. If you prefer to go digital, start a blog. You can make the blog public or private, and it’s a good way to keep track of articles or pictures you find online. (You can link to them.)
Even if you feel there’s nothing for you to write about at first, you might be surprised to find that onc you start, you can’t stop.
【1】What does writing journals help the author do?
A. Make many friends.
B. Do many helpful things.
C. Be free from some worries.
D. Learn a lot about other people.
【2】Why is making a pro/con list useful?
A. It increases your confidence.
B. It helps you get what you want.
C. It helps you make great progress.
D. It helps you decide what to do.
【3】 What do you think about writing journals as a beginner?
A. You have little to write.
