1.Managing Your Emotions

What makes me angry? Mostly, I hate when someone tries to make someone else 

feel bad. I have to admit that once, when I was really angry, I actually 

called names. I regretted doing this afterwards, but not full heartedly 

because I think I was provoked in that situation.

The most positive way of dealing with anger is talking about the problem. I 

talk to someone who listens, or I'll write my thoughts down on paper. Learning 

how to deal with anger as you're growing up is so important. When you're 

younger, you might yell, or cry when you're angry, but as you get older, 

you're expected to handle your emotions much better. 

Learning to control your emotion now will prevent you from doing something 

that you'll regret later on in life! 

emotion  情绪  manage  控制，操纵，管理  admit  承认  

full heartedly  全心全意地  provoke  激怒  prevent  预防，防止

控制你的情绪

什么事会让我愤怒呢？通常情况下，当有人试图使别人觉得不舒服时，我会非常愤怒。我不得不承认，有一次，在我实在很生气的时候，我确实骂了人。过后，我很后悔那么做，但我不认为全是我的错，因为我觉得在那种情况下，我是被激怒了。 

解决愤怒的最积极的方法是把问题说出来。我说给愿意听的人，或者把我的想法写在纸上。在你成长的过程中，学会处理愤怒是非常重要的。小时候，你生气的时候可以大喊大叫或者哭闹，但长大后，你被期望能更好地控制情绪。 

现在就学着控制情绪能让你避免做一些可能使你以后遗憾一生的事情。

2.“I Don’t Have to Eat All the Egg.”

A lady once wrote a long story. She sent it to a famous editor. After a few 

weeks the story was returned to her. The lady was angry. She wrote to the 

editor: 

"Dear Sir: Yesterday you sent back a story of mine. How do you know that the 

story is not good? You did not read it. Before I sent you the story, I pasted 

together pages 18, 19 and 20. This was a test to see whether you would read 

the story. When the story came back yesterday, the pages were still pasted 

together. Is this the way you read all the stories that are sent to you?"The 

editor wrote back: "Dear Madam: At breakfast when I open an egg I don't have 

to eat all the egg to discover that it is bad.?

editor  编辑  paste  用浆糊粘

“我不必吃掉整个鸡蛋。”

曾经有位女士，她写了一篇很长的小说，并把它寄给了一位著名的编辑。几周后小说退回来了。女士很生气，她给编辑写了封信。 

“尊敬的编辑先生：  

昨天你把我的小说退回来了。你怎么知道这小说不好？你根本没有读过。在寄给你之前，我把十八、十九和二十页粘在了一起。这是要检查你是否会读我写的小说。昨天小说退回来时，这三页还粘在一起。难道这就是你阅读所有寄给你的作品的方式吗？”  

编辑回信写道：“尊敬的女士：   早餐时我打开一只鸡蛋，我不必等到吃完整个鸡蛋后才发现蛋是臭的。”
