about life: you can never please everyone. there will be one, two, or even a large number of people who are going to criticize (批评) you. are there ways to manage criticisms more effectively? yes, there are. listen to them properly. then ask yourself the question, “can their criticisms be useful? is there some truth to them?” most of all, “can i be a better person because of them?” if the answer is no to all of the questions, then there is no need for you to take them in. determine the motivation of the feedback (反馈). why are you being criticized in the first place? if someone calls you lazy because you have not been keeping track of your responsibilities, then there may be some truth to it no matter how harsh the criticism can be. however, if it comes from a person who does not know, does not care about you, or worse still, does not really like you, then there is a good chance that the criticism has just been given to spite you. open yourself to the possibility of mistakes. you may be getting negative feedback because youve committed the mistakes yourself. now dont be too strict with yourself. everybody goes through that. just learn from the experience and move on. stay cool. there will be hundreds of criticisms that will make you feel very stressed and angry. you can do meditations (深思) when youre feeling blood boiling. take long deep breaths.allow the air to occupy your lungs. then breathe out through your mouth slowly. while youre doing that, you can also say subliminal (潜意识的) messages like “i can be a better person” or“my mistakes dont define me” or “i wont let bad judgments get into my head.” these subliminal messages can certainly help improve your mood, making you less stressed and much happier.1. why should we listen to criticisms properly? a. to get

themselves, or victims of a natural or man-made disaster. since the start of our country this has been one of the noticeable features of our society.beginning in the colonial (殖民的) period and continuing down to today our countrys history is full of examples of people helping each other. requiring high school students to participate in voluntary community service projects introduces them to this crucial part of our society. and while many students complain about this program at first, a large number of them find great individual satisfaction when they look back at the things they achieved. our son, who graduated in 2005, found that he enjoyed the time he spent with primary school students helping them with their reading. in some ways he became a hero to the young boys and girls he was spending time with, simply because he was a high school student and took the time to get to know them. by the end of his first year in the program he was looking forward to the next school year and a new group of kids. it was particularly satisfying when a child he had helped saw him some place in the community and remembered him. having high school students take part in required community service activities helps give them an important sense of belonging to the adult world. it also gives them first-hand experience in activities and situations they might not otherwise experience. and it shows them that they can make a valuable contribution towards the society with just a little effort and a few hours of their time. yes, some of the students are going to complain and try to avoid participation. but lets not destroy a good program just because of a minority who would complain whatever the activity.8. what kind of feeling is expressed in paragraph 1? a. surprise. b. doubt. c. concern. d. pride.9. the underlined part “this crucial part” in paragraph 2 refers to “_”. a. volunteering b. negative part c. american history d. the colonial period10. what do we know about the authors son? a. he has been a volunteer for about one year. b. he won much respect for his voluntary work. c. he hoped the children he helped would remember him. d. he felt pleased when he was recognized by other volunteers.11. in paragraph 4, the author mainly discusses _. a. the benefits of required volunteering b. the importance of first-hand experience c. the requirements for being a volunteer d. the responsibility of contributing to societydon the first day of his presidency, donald trump (特朗普) began making changes to the policies of earlier presidents.a document released by the new trump white house said the president would soon withdraw from the 12-nation trans-pacific partnership trade agreement (12国跨太平洋伙伴贸易协定). the free trade deal was agreed by the obama administration(奥巴马政府).the white house website said trump would also work to rethink the north american free trade agreement known as nafta.if our partners refuse a discussion that gives american workers a fair deal, then the president will give notice of the united states intent to withdraw from nafta, a white house statement said.neither action was a surprise. during the presidential campaign, trump said bad trade deals had hurt employment in america.the nafta agreement removed most tariffs (关税) on products traded between the us, canada and mexico. it was signed by president bill clinton in 1993.the trump administration also said it is ready to cancel what it called, harmful and unnecessary policies. among them is the obama administrations plan to reduce pollutants from
