When I was 12 years old, I went for my father to his workplace—a car showroom. I was wandering around when I see a poor woman with a child on her lap sit outside the showroom. When I saw that she was crying, I went outside and told my father. He went out, offered her some water and then asked her how was wrong. The woman said that her husband had been died some months before and that she didn’t have anyone else in her family could help her. Her children had been sick for the past three days so she was unable to go to work. Now she didn’t have a grain of food to eat. My father and I were deep shocked by her story. Then he took them to a nearest hospital for her child to be treated.

Things to Do When You’re Feeling Down
Let’s start with a fact. We all have days when we feel down and discouraged. 1. Here is a list to help you get back on track.
1. Take Care of Yourself
This may seem like an obvious thing, but try your best to get a good night’s sleep and eat healthy food when you’re hungry. 2. Consider setting an earlier bedtime than usual and stick to it. Make some nourishing snacks that you can easily grab instead of sugary junk food. Fresh fruit, a piece of cheese, some cut-up vegetables, homemade soup; they’re all quick and easy options to consider.
2. What’s Comforting to You?
3. Take a bike ride or go for a walk in nature. Treat yourself to a lunch at your favorite restaurant. Listen to some good music. Call a friend. Watch a funny movie. Take a nap. Read a good book. The release from stress will add to your level of happiness.
3. Make an Action Plan
Can you identify what’s making you unhappy? If so, you have a good chance of changing it. 4. You don’t have to figure out a whole plan to solve your conflicts; simply taking some steps in the right direction will boost your good feeling.
4. This, Too, Shall Pass
What do you say to yourself when you’re going through a tough time? Beating yourself up is not helpful! 5. Examples are, “It is what it is; let me just accept it and move on.’’ “All I can do is put one foot in front of the other and keep moving.” And finally, “This, too, shall pass.”
A. Science shows that both of these things can have a huge positive impact on both your mood and your blood sugar
B. A lot of researches show that when we intend to be happy, our thoughts and actions follow suit.
C. What action can you take today that will make you feel better and change the pattern?
D. What can you do to pull yourself back from despair?
E. Try saying things that are relieving to your hearts and mind.
F. Other times, the blues just seem to hit for no reason at all.
G. If you’re going through a tough time, think about some healthy comforts that will make you feel better.
Young women who take part in beauty contests (比赛) are helping to keep alive an outdated opinion of women that a woman’s most important value is how she looks.
Women have been working very hard through the years to change their image. They have been trying to prove that the value of a woman does not lie only in her beauty. The world is just beginning to recognize that women are as smart, wise and strong in personality as men are, and that there are qualities more important than looks when judging people. When women take part in beauty contests for top prizes, they encourage people to value them for their beauty alone. It is unfair to say that beauty alone determines one’s worth.
Beauty contests not only encourage spectators (观众) to judge women by their appearance, but they encourage this idea in the contestants as well. These young women spend months losing weight to be the “right” size and learning how to dress, wear makeup, and walk just right so that some judges will consider them beautiful. I think it’s great for a woman to feel good about her appearance, but looks shouldn’t be sought after in an extreme or unreasonable way. There are too many other, more important, things in a young woman’s life: learning, developing friendships and preparing for their future work and perhaps a family.
As long as there are beauty contests, women won’t be fully recognized as well-rounded human beings.
