Mr. Brown was going away for a week. Before he left, he said to his son, “ If anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of tea.”

“OK, Dad,” said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn’t remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.

Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.

The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said, “Where is your father?” The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. He could not find it. He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, “No more.”

The man was very surprised. He asked, “No more? I met your father last week. When did it happen?”

"Burnt yesterday evening."

Kids' health: Four steps for fighting stress

Everybody gets stressed from time to time.1.Some ways of dealing with stress like screaming or hitting someone - don't solve much. But other ways, like talking to someone you trust, can lead you to solving your problem or at least feeling better.

Try taking these four steps the next time you are stressed:

(1) Get support. When you need help, reach out to the people who care about you. Talkto a trusted adult, such as a parent or other relatives. 2.They might havehad similar problems, such as dealing with a test, or the death of a beloved pet.

(2) Don't take it out on yourself. Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they takeit out on themselves. Oh, dear, that's not a good idea. Remember that there arealways people to help you. Don't take it out on yourself3.

(3) Try to solve the problem. After you're calm and you have support from adults andfriends, it's time to get down to business.4.Even if you can't solve it all,you can solve a piece of it.

(4) Be positive. Most stress is temporary (暫時(shí)的). Remember stress does go away,especially when you figure out the problem and start working on solving it.

These steps aren't magic, but they do work. And if you can stay positive as you makeyour way through a tough time, you'll help yourself feel better even faster. -5.

A. Ah, it feels so good when the stress is gone.

B Ask for a helping hand to get you through the tough situation.

C. Notice your friends' feelings and find a way to help them.

D Different people feel stress in different ways.

How to be more creative every day

Creativity isn’t something you either have or don’t have. In fact, it is something like playing the saxophone.1.So read on to know how.

• Be more curious.

It’s important to seek out new viewpoints every day. 2.To involve this in your daily life, make sure to keep an open mind when you’re presented with an idea, and be curious as to what else is around the comer.

• Give yourself space.

Letting every piece of information into your brain drags you from being creative. Try to apply a level of space into your everyday life. 3.It helps to lead your thinking patterns away from potential distractions (潛在分心的事物), leaving much room to have creative ideas.

• Try something new.

Frequent thinking patterns, in effect, cause you to be more likely to think the same things or make the same decisions over and over unless you get out of your comfort zone. 4.Though not always easy, it does open up a whole new world of thinking!

5.

Social media has created an environment where we’re constantly shown whether we’ve succeeded in the form of likes or comments, which leads us to doubt ourselves. However, creativity is a journey, and you’re learning every step of the way. Honestly, you’ll learn much more from that than a straight win anyway. So be confident and tell yourself you have already done well enough.

A. Learn from failure.

B. Remind yourself you’re good enough.

C. The 8 p. m. — 8 a. m. phone ban is a great way to begin.

D. Getting physical really helps to sort out your brain space.

E. But it’s not easy to feel or be automatically creative either.

F. Thus you can think and approach things from another angle.

G. Using your skills in a different area is a great way to think outside the box.
