When Joe was about to start school, all signs pointed to success. Yet things turned out to be quite
36 . The fourth grade even found him at the 37 of the class. Joe struggled day and night, but it did
not 38 —until one stormy afternoon.
On that afternoon, 39 the math teacher started to introduce difficult concepts, dark clouds
covered the sky, and the storm set in. Hard though she tried to make the kid, 40 , the thunder won
the battle for their attention. No one 41 the concepts. Except for Joe. He understood them and
answered all the questions correctly. The teacher patted him on the back, and told him to go
around to the others and explain how he had managed it. 42 by his newfound success, Joe moved
quickly throughout the room. Soon math time was followed by the time for 43 . All children
naturally drew 44 pictures on such a day. Except for Joe.
Since then, Joe started 45 . Though he never made it to the top, his math teacher was always 46
and curious about the change: Why had that stormy day changed Joe?
On the day Joe graduated, he presented the teacher with his most 47 possession—the picture of a
bright yellow sun. On the picture Joe had written: This is the day I 48 my brightness.

It is easy to overlook the role that your body plays in influencing your mood(情绪). When you are
49 , you may find yourself blaming work pressures or an unknown future. However, it could just
be that you’ve been sitting behind your desk too long.
One way to improve your mood is 50 . Psychologically, it provides you with a break from the
stresses in your life. Also, in the process, you may aim for 51 goals, like a new personal running
record or a better body shape. The achievement of a particular goal makes you feel good and
contributes to your 52 . That is why exercise has been shown to 53 your self-respect.

per week or simply gardening on weekends.

The morning had been a disaster. My tooth was aching. And I’d been in an argument with a friend.
Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you
see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth.
I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really
unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately.
Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.
“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”
I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist.
What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn’t he as
busy as the others?
In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I
became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over
my ice-cold one.
When I told her my fears, she laughed and said, “Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”
“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.
“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax. And enjoy the artwork,” the assistant said.
“The artwork?” I was puzzled.
