Many things — genetics, environment, the food you eat, illness, sleep, even the seasons — influence your emotional state. But at the heart of it is how you regard yourself. If you have a healthy level of self-esteem, you not only cope with life’s challenges better than people with low self-esteem, but you’re probably more content, confident, and successful. You’re probably also healthier. Studies show that positive self-esteem actually helps inoculate (为……做预防) people against depression and anxiety, conditions that may present increased risk of everything from colds to heart diseases.

   Most people’s good sense of worth is rooted in their childhood — in the early approval(认可) of their parents, teachers, and friends. But as we get older, most of us judge ourselves by our sense of how effectively we’re managing in the world, especially in the areas of love and work. Our ability to love and to be loved can give us a sense of purpose and deep fulfillment. We can also find satisfaction and pride in work-related accomplishments and the people we meet and work with can reinforce our sense of self and our role in life. Once midlife comes along, however, our self-esteem can take a turn in response to changes in our lives. Marital（婚姻的） relationship may change, children may leave home , and we may begin to scale back our work as we approach retirement. Of course, the view in the mirror may not be what it used to be, either.

   If you find your self-esteem eroding a bit, try to build it up again. As the saying goes, it’s better to try something and fail than to be successful at not trying anything . Focus on goals that are linked to activities you’re really interested in, so you’ll enjoy a sense of purpose and gain pleasure from the pursuit（追求） whether or not you achieve your goal in full.

Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum (论坛) asking what "PK" meant.

   "My family has been watching the 'Super Girl' singing competition TV programme. My little daughter asked me what 'PK' meant, but I had no idea," explained the puzzled father.

   To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online, it is impossible not to know this term. In such Internet games, "PK" is short for "Player Kill", in which two players fight until one ends the life of the other.

   In the case of the "Super Girl" singing competition, "PK" was used to refer to the stage where two singers have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition ranking.

   Like this father, Chinese teachers at high schools have also been finding their students' compositions using Internet jargons which are difficult to understand. A high school teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write compositions with simple language, but they came up with a lot of Internet jargons that she didn't understand.

   "My 'GG' came back this summer from college. He told me I've grown up to be a 'PLMM'. I loved to 'FB' with him together; he always took me to the 'KPM'," went one composition.

   "GG" means Ge Ge (Chinese pinyin for brother). "PLMM" refers to Piao Liang Mei Mei (beautiful girl). "FB" means Fu Bai (corruption). "KPM" is short for KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonald's.

   Some specialists welcome Internet jargons as a new development in language.

   If you do not even know what a Kong Long (dinosaur, referring to an ugly looking female) or a Qing Wa (frog, referring to an ugly looking male) is, you will possibly be regarded as a Cai Niao!

By writing the article, the writer tries to  ________ .

A. explain some Internet language    B. suggest common Internet language

C. laugh at the Beijing father           D. draw our attention to Internet language

What does the writer think about the term "PK"?

A. Fathers can't possibly know it.       B. The daughter should understand it.

A. are used not only online            B. can be understood very well

C. are welcomed by all the people      D. cause trouble to our mother tongue

What would be the best title for the passage?

    A. A puzzled father                       B. Do you speak Internet-ish?

C. Keep away from Internet-ish        D. Kong Long or Qing Wa?
