When did you last say “I love you” to your father? If you can’t remember, then you can get the chance this Father’s Day on June 19.
Generally compared to(与……相比) a mother’s gentle love, a father represents qualities such as independence(独立), confidence, courage and adventure(冒险).
Also, caring fathers help their children get along with others. Fathers can lead their children into their social circle(社交圈). They can also teach them how to behave and control their feelings.
For example, Microsoft founder Bill Gates was quiet and didn’t like to talk with others when he was a little kid. So his father often held family parties and let Bill play games with family members.(83) “My ability of leading and cooperating(合作) became better through games.” Gates once said in an interview with US Fortune magazine.
US actor Will Smith said that his father taught him important lessons through small things. His father once planned to tear(拆) down a wall of their shop and rebuild it. But little Will thought it was impossible. After a year and a half, they did it. “You didn’t try to build a wall. You are going to lay a brick every day. And soon you have a wall,” he said on TV show.
(84)“One father is more than a hundred schoolmasters”, British poet George Herbert once said. Do you agree?

Finally as I rode my way up the hill, I began to think why people pay m6. to go to a gym(健身房) and sit on exercise bicycles w7. moving around when I can get the same exercise and enjoy the beautiful countryside for free.

Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, close to 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80 percent of people feel shy sometimes. Shyness is becoming more and more common. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.
Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. They say 15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. These babies are a little quieter than other babies. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. So scientists think that some shyness is genetic.
Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists at Harvard University studied shy children. They found that 66 percent of them had elder brothers and sisters. As a result, they became shy. At the same time, children with no brothers or sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves.
You may also be shy because of where you were born. When scientists studied shyness in different countries, they found surprising differences. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel(以色列), only one of three people said so. What explains the difference? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions of failure. In Japan, when people don’t succeed, they feel bad about themselves. They blame（责备）themselves for their failure. In Israel, the truth is opposite. Israelis often blame failure on external (外在的) reasons, such as family, teachers, friends, or bad luck. In Israel, freedom of opinion and risk taking are strongly supported. This may be why Israelis worry less about failure and are less shy.
For shy people, it can be difficult to make friends or speak loudly in class. But scientists say you can get over your shyness. They suggest trying new things and practicing conversation. And don’t forget—if you are shy, you are not the only one.

Mr. Ma, a famous mental (心理的) doctor from Beijing once said at an important meeting, “Now many young students can have many problems with their minds. Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people around them like their parents and classmates. Parents and teachers should care more about this problem.”
Then Mr. Ma gave some examples. One patient, a middle school student from Xi’an was doing badly in his lessons. He thought his teachers and friends often laughed at him, and he became so nervous and worried that one night he left his home without telling parents. Another student, a 14-year-old schoolgirl from Shanghai, was very afraid of exams. While she was reading the exam paper, she couldn’t think of anything to write.
A recent report from Jie fang Daily says about 18% of the young students in Shanghai have mental problems. They often feel worried and very unhappy. Unluckily, many of them won’t go and ask for help. Some think they will look stupid if they go to see a doctor. Others won’t talk about their own secrets (秘密).
At the end of the meeting, Mr. Ma offered some good ideas to young people:
◆Talk to your parents or teachers often.
◆Take part in group activities.
◆Try to get along well with the people around you.
◆Go to see a doctor if you often feel unhappy.
