In our daily life, we unavoidably come across various challenge now and then.

For me, the biggest challenge happens when I entered senior high school. I was shocking to find the physics teacher was teaching was totally beyond me. Thinking I just lacked a gift for physics, I stopped to making an effort and my grades were poor. Unfortunately, my teacher didn’t give up on me. Instead, he helped me analyse a problem and I realized I needed to rise to the challenge bravely. Now, I’m one of the top students in physics.

From my experience, I have learned that it is not our inborn gifts and our efforts that helps us achieve success. When we come across challenges, you should fight bravely instead of giving up.

    Here are my favorite tips for staying physically, mentally and emotionally healthy during the winter months. Vacation not included. 1.

Raise your vitamin D levels naturally (without pills or sunlight). We’ve all heard about the marvels of vitamin D: heart health, skin health, immune health, mental health… But you don’t need to take pills or risk skin cancer to get high vitamin D levels. The big secret is that vitamin D levels are associated with healthy lifestyle changes. For example, if you lose just 5 percent or more of your body weight, your vitamin D blood levels will shoot up. Vitamin D likes to stay in fatty tissue, so when you lose fat, the vitamin D levels in your blood go up. 2.. And when you eat your wild salmon, bake it rather than fry it. Other good food sources are trout, mushrooms and egg yolks, and my favorite, plain Greek yogurt.

3. Winter can be a tough time for many of us. All that darkness can take its toll on our mental health. The winter months can be very isolating for many people. My suggestion is that you and a close friend sign up for yoga, cooking or sewing class. 4.

Eat more plants—the ones that are sources of omega-3 fatty acids. According to the famous Harvard Nurses’ Health Study, there was no relation between depression and intake of omega-3 fatty acids from fish, 5.. And again, the wintertime is when many people have a higher risk of depression.

A.Take a class with a friends

B.but they did find a reduced risk of depression in those with moderate intake of plant-based omega-3 fatty acids

C.Isolate yourself during wintertime

D.The following three simple suggestions are things that anyone can do easily and inexpensively to stave off the winter blues and sniffles (鼻塞).

E.Not only do these kinds of classes improve your mental and physical fitness, but they help to fill that social craving (渴望) that we have as human beings, too

F.and there was no evidence to show the benefit of plants

G.Other ways to increase vitamin D naturally are to lower your cholesterol (胆固醇) exercise and eat more fatty fish, such as wild salmon

    There is a truth generally acknowledged by drivers in India, honk your horn (按喇叭) loud enough and the traffic light will surely change to green. But, fed up with the drivers who have no patience and cause a deafening noise every time they are forced to stop, the police in Mumbai have come up with a new system to punish those people. The new system, said the police, was quite simple: “Honk more, wait more.”

Known as “the punishing signal”, the Mumbai police fixed a new traffic light system to deal with the problem of “reckless honkers”, which resets the red traffic signal every time the sound of car horns goes above 85 decibels. For particularly honk- happy drivers, it could mean a very long wait at the lights.

Mumbai was recently listed as the fourth most congested city in the world, according to the TomTom traffic index, with 65% congestion and drivers spending an average of eight days and 17 hours in traffic each year. Speaking to local media, Mumbai traffic police commissioner Madhukar Pandey said, “Sadly, many Mumbaikars are addicted to reckless honking which not only causes noise pollution, but hurts eardrums, increases heart rates, causes stress and adds to traffic disturbance.”

He added, “All recognize it, but do little to control it. With this, I am sure that our road discipline can become better and the new system ensures honk-less, noise-free and stress free travel on Mumbai roads.”

The idea, which was tested in November and December, 2019, has already gained momentum and there is a plan for rolling it out in other cities in India. Across the country, Indian cities have the worst traffic in the world. Bangalore was recently named as the world’s most congested city, with drivers spending an average of 10 days stuck in traffic, while both Delhi and Pune were also in the top 10.

1.From the passage, we can infer that ________.

A.Mumbai’s traffic jam is very serious

B.overusing horns causes harm to the economy

C.Mumbai drivers doubt the new traffic light system

D.the new traffic light system works as soon as drivers honk

2.What information can you get from Madhukar Pandey’s words?

A.The new traffic light system has many disadvantages.

B.He thinks that the new traffic system is useful.

C.It is too late to carry out the new traffic light system.

D.It’s difficult to deal with overuse of horns in Mumbai.

3.According to the last paragraph, we can know that ________.

A.the new traffic system works well

B.Delhi’s traffic condition is better than that of Pune

C.the new traffic system will be spread around the world

D.people of Bangalore like to honk their horns when driving

4.What is the best title for this passage?

A.Mumbai Rewarded Patient Drivers

B.Mumbai Warns Honk-happy Drivers by Traffic Lights

C.Honk-happy Drivers Will Have No Way to Drive

D.“Honk More. Wait More”: Mumbai Tests Traffic Lights
