We are all faced with challenges constantly in every area of our lives. 1 The truth is that you will have to deal with difficult problems throughout your life, whether it is in your personal life or career. Most of us get really afraid and run away from problems because we don’t want to accept reality. Running away from your problems is the worst thing you can do to deal with the challenges you are faced with. Here are some tips for you on learning how to deal with everyday challenges.Please bear in mind that you shouldn’t overact when coming across challenges. Overacting to a problem will cause you to make bad decisions. 2 Next time you are faced with a challenge, stay calm so you can make smarter decisions. 3 If you cannot accept reality, you will feel very frustrated with your life. Once you can accept reality, you will be able to be calmer and think more clearly about how to get a step closer towards your goals every day.Many people make a habit of blaming others for all their problems. They fail to take full responsibility for the decisions they have made in life. The more you blame others for the challenges you are faced with, the more you will make people dislike you and not want to be around you. 4 Don’t compare your lifestyle with others. Of course, it is really difficult not to compare ourselves with other people. However, the more often we do that, the more frustrated we will feel. 5 The key thing to remember is that you create your own story and success in life.
A. Accept the reality of the present moment. |
B. Try to look at change as a positive challenge, not as a threat. |
C. There will always be a person that may have accomplished more than you. |
D. Our focus may entirely be on how we can deal with the challenge that has come our way. |
E. When we are not in control of our emotions, we will make decisions that we will regret later. |
F. However, most people have a hard time accepting and dealing with these challenges that arise. |
G. As a result, the first thing you should do when faced with a personal challenge is not point fingers at others. |
The color of food might affect just how much you want to eat them，but what about the birds in your neighborhood？Would they care what color their food is？Try this out for a science fair project，or just to learn something new while making your local birds happy.
Begin this experiment with the question“What color of birdseed（鸟食），if any，will birds like the most?”, and then make a hypothesis (假设) based on your question. An example might be“Birds will eat more green birdseed than other colors of birdseed.”
You should get several bird feeders. Purchase birdseed that is very light in color. To color the birdseed, pour it into a bowl and then add food coloring that you can purchase from the store. Mix them up well with a spoon and continue to add coloring until all the seed is colored. You should sample at least a few colors and have one feeder with seed that has not been colored—this is called the control and it will give you something to compare your results to. Now just hang them up outside in the same location，and wait for your feathered friends to show up. This works best in an area where birds are used to feeding from a feeder—it can take birds over a week to find new feeders.
Observe your bird feeders whenever possible，and keep track of how much seed is in each bird feeder each day. A ruler is helpful for this. You might also want to take pictures of the feeders and keep track of what kind of birds visit each feeder. Over time，you should be able to see if one color of seed gets eaten more than others.
Once your experiment is done，you will be able to go back to your hypothesis and see if it is correct. Remember, it’s not bad if your hypothesis was wrong. The main thing is that you’ve learned something from your experiment，and hopefully you had some fun doing it.
1.What’s the purpose of this experiment?
A.To see what color birds like most.
B.To make local birds happy.
C.To see if the color of food affects birds.
D.To find how local birds feed themselves.
2.What’s the second step for this experiment?
A.Observing bird feeders. B.Raising a question.
C.Collecting all the data. D.Making a hypothesis.
3.The underlined words“feathered friends”in Paragraph 3 refer to .
A.feeders B.birds
C.neighbors D.locals
4.What is the most important about the bird feeders?
A.They are filled with some water. B.They are placed in secret places.
C.They are painted in different colors. D.They are all the same size and type.
