In China, 70 percent of the 2,000 students about to take the college or high school entrance examination are under high stress, according to a recent survey by Wuhan University of Hubei province.Sometimes stress is good for people.

Learning to solve small problems in everyday life is helpful. It can help build confidence to move on to lifes bigger ones. Try saying positive things to yourself, like “I will do the best that I can,” or “I can manage this if I take one step at a time.” That encourages you to work toward your goal. It is also important to relax sometimes, for example by getting a good nights sleep, doing exercises or taking a bath.But if you are under high stress and cant handle it by yourself, it is also good to ask parents or friends for help.

All coaches talk about working as one unit, as a team that plays as one. Teamwork and unselfishness (无私) create the strong center of a great team; without them a team cannot play well against other teams. You can have a group of superstars, but if they do not work well as one unit, they are not going to be successful. The team working as one unit is going to be successful.Here are some things to consider when you are looking at your team: Does your team have agreed-upon goals they created as a team? Do the players openly encourage and support one another? Do they have open communication with one another, as well as the coaches? Does each player know what their role on the team is? Is there shared respect among the players and coaches? Do players use words such as “we” when referring to the team? Have they created a positive (乐观的) team image for themselves? Does the team as a whole want to improve their performance? Does each member consider themselves as a “team player” ?A winning team has players that share common goals and a common dream. Teams come together through shared attitudes about a particular sport. They may come together for a number of different reasons, but their goals are the same to achieve top performance and experience success. The ends may be different but the means by which one gets there is the same teamwork. Teamwork is something that must be on the top of the list. Every player needs to understand how important it is for them to work smoothly together if they want to be successful. Each player must be true to the whole team and be willing to act unselfishly. When challenges (挑战) come, the team needs to deal with them in a positive manner. A sense of teamwork will play an important part in this.Just remember T.E.A.M. Together Everyone Achieves More!64.

A lot of them include country names or nationalities. Take these examples:The Dutch（丹麦人）are the target of most English expressions about nationalities. Why are there so many jokes about the Dutch in English? And what do these expressions mean? In the 17th and early 18th centuries, there were three wars between the British and the Dutch, and Dutch became a bad word.

There are later expressions, which are funnier and kinder, like to go Dutch, which is nowadays a popular expression. It means to pay for your part of a bill. This often happens when a group of friends have a meal together, and each person pays for the food they ate. Im a Dutchman is another commonly used expression. This means not being able to believe something.An expression with a similar meaning to double Dutch is its all Greek to me, which means I dont understand. The expression was made famous in Shakespeares play Julius Caesar although the expression is actually hundreds of years older.If you take French leave, you are not present or leave somewhere without permission. For example, you could take French leave from a classroom or the place where you work.

This describes the fact that a message can often change as it is passed from person to person. This expression comes from the First World War when foreigners were often confused by Chinese language. Many people find English expressions confusing, but now that you know about some of them, you can easily have fun finding out many more funny English expressions.64.

The chances of being attacked by a shark are very small compared to other dangers. Many more people drown（溺死）in the ocean every year than are bitten by sharks. The low number of attacks that happen every year proves that sharks do not feed on humans if they have the choice. There are three types of shark attacks. The main one is known as a hit and run. The shark attacks because it thinks you are a fish, but when it tastes a human it decides not to eat you. The second type is called a bump and bite. The shark bumps you to find out if you are fit to be eaten and then bites you if it thinks you are. The third type is called a sneak. When attacking in this way, the shark waits for you to swim by and attacks you suddenly. The latter（后者的）two types of attack are more likely to be deadly for humans.However, your chances of being attacked by a shark can be reduced if you follow the advice below.l Do not swim in the dark. Sharks can still see you but you cannot see them.l Do not swim if you are cut or if you have a fresh wound. Sharks can smell blood over a long distance.l Do not wear bright clothing or jewellery because sharks are attracted to colours and shiny objects.l Try and stay in groups, as sharks usually avoid large numbers of people.Dont be frightened（受惊吓）by sharks as there is 30 times greater chance of being hit by lightning than being attacked by a shark.64.
