Clear Your Mental Space專八美文背誦：凈化心靈空間Think about the last time you felt a negative emotion-like stress, anger, or frustration. What was going through your mind as you were going through thatnegativity? Was your mindcluttered with thoughts? Or was it paralyzed, unable to think?The next time you find yourself in the middle of a very stressful time, or you feel angry or frustrated, stop. Yes, thats right, stop. Whatever youre doing, stop and sit for one minute. While youre sitting there, completelyimmerseyourself in the negative emotion.Allow that emotion to consume you. Allow yourself one minute to truly feel that emotion. Dont cheat yourself here. Take the entire minute-but only one minute-to do nothing else but feel that emotion.When the minute is over, ask yourself, “Am I wiling to keep holding on to this negative emotion as I go through the rest of the day?”O(jiān)nce youve allowed yourself to be totally immersed in the emotion and really fell it, you will be surprised to find that the emotion clears rather quickly.If you feel you need to hold on to the emotion for a little longer, that is OK. Allow yourself another minute to feel the emotion.When you feel youve had enough of the emotion, ask yourself if youre willing to carry that negativity with you for the rest of the day. If not, take a deep breath. As you exhale, release all that negativity with your breath.This exercise seems simple-almost too simple. But, it is very effective. By allowing that negative emotion the space to be truly felt, you are dealing with the emotion rather than stuffing it down and trying not to feel it. You are actually taking away the power of the emotion by giving it the space and attention it needs. When you immerse yourself in the emotion, and realize that it is only emotion, it loses its control. You can clear your head and proceed with your task.Try it. Next time youre in the middle of a negative emotion, give yourself the space to feel the emotion and see what happens. Keep a piece of paper with you that says the following:Stop. Immerse for one minute. Do I want to keep this negativity? Breath deep, exhale, release. Move on!This will remind you of the steps to the process. Remember; take the time you need to really immerse yourself in the emotion. Then, when you feel youve felt it enough, release it-really let go of it. You will be surprised at how quickly you can move on from a negative situation and get to what you really want to do!2. 專八范文背誦：如何看待兒童早上學(xué)編輯點評：關(guān)于兒童是不是該早上學(xué)，人們的意見有很大分歧。有人贊成，認為早上學(xué)能幫助孩子早日步入正軌；有人反對，認為孩子年齡尚小，不具備接受正規(guī)教育的能力。你是如何看待這個問題的呢？People have different views on what children should do at a very early age. Some think that children should begin their formal education and start to spend most of their time on studies. Others believe that it is still time for young children to play. Both views are based on respective ground.Those who argue for the playing time for children suggest that children at a very early age are still too young to focus their attention on learning. Their brain may not be ready for serious studies such as comprehension and memorizing learning materials. These people are partially right, for it is true that young children can hardly concentrate. Their attention on one thing lasts for no longer than 15 minutes or so. But we can arrange classes for shorter periods, cant we? And we can shift teaching subjects. Through putting them to study, young children are occupied with learning but not with playing.Those who argue for childrens early commencement for formal education believe that being put to studies, children can develop good habit of studying, for the process of learning helps develop childrens mental abilities like the ability to memorize, the ability to understand and the ability to do simple calculation. Childrens habit of studying and love for learning are of great importance to youngstersbecause these two things set up the sound foundation for their future studies.Having children start formal education at a very early age benefits young children much more than simply letting them play most of their time. A good habit needs a long time to develop to become a second nature. More importantly, it is better to develop a good habit before a bad one may grow. Similarly, the love for learning should take roots before the love for playing is established.Notes:set up the sound foundation for their future studies:為他們將來的學(xué)業(yè)打下堅實的基礎(chǔ)take root:生根；扎根3. 專八范文背誦：重大決定是否可以一個人單獨決定編輯點評：人的一輩子要做很多決定。有些比較重要的決定是不是適合一個人單獨做出呢？你是如何看待這個問題的？A person should never make an important decision alone, important decisions should be well thought out. People, who know you well, know what is best for you, and close to you can give you good advice, give you a different perspective, or share their own experience.When I had difficulty deciding which classes to take in college, I talked to my teachers and advisors; they had the knowledge and expertise to help me determine which classes were the best ones to take for my future career. Without their advice, I might have chosen unsuitable courses.In collage, I had convinced myself that I was not good enough to act in the school play. Therefore, I decided not to audition even though drama had always been my passion. The day of the audition, a friend of mine asked me why I was not auditioning. When I told her I did not feel I was good enough, she was shocked. She was able to provide me with another perspective on myself and my talents. I rethought my decision and tried out.and got a lead in the play.Last year when I was trying to decide whether or not I should study overseas, I talked to my friend. This was the best thing I could have done. This was abigdecision for mebecause I had never been overseas on my own and I was not sure if I could do it. She had studied overseas the previous year. She told me about the challenges and opportunities I might encounter and helped me make the right decision. I went and it was amazing.Whenever I am faced with an important decision, I seek advice from others so that I am well-informed and have the benefit of their perspective and experience.4. 專八美文背誦：青春的真諦編輯點評：青春不僅存在于人的外表，內(nèi)心年輕的話，青春就還在；人之所以會變老也不單單是因為時光流逝，也因為我們在不斷地拋棄理想。Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter ofrosy cheeks, red lips andsuppleknees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human beings heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing appetite for whats next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart, there is a wireless station; so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, courage and power from man and from the infinite, so long as you are young.When your aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then youve grown old, even at 20; but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, theres hope you may die young at 80.Notes：rosy cheek: 紅臉蛋兒5. 專八范文背誦：擁有私人汽車的利與弊編輯點評：近年來，隨著國民經(jīng)濟的持續(xù)快速發(fā)展，人們的生活水平日益提高，中國汽車保有量持續(xù)高速猛增，中國汽車業(yè)能否健康發(fā)展已經(jīng)成為事關(guān)國計民生的熱門話題。汽車帶來的自主開發(fā)、能源、環(huán)保、交通、經(jīng)濟可持續(xù)發(fā)展實際上都與和諧社會、節(jié)約型社會息息相關(guān)。汽車與人們生活的聯(lián)系越來越緊密。當我們探討如何構(gòu)建和諧社會、節(jié)約型社會的時候，已經(jīng)不能將我們的社會與汽車割裂開。With the fantasticspurboth in industry and in economy in China, the number of people who own private cars is on the rise. Some people have bought cars of their own, and others are planning to buy cars. But there have been two quite different views on this phenomenon.Some claim that there are many advantages brought about by cars. First, the automobile industry provides jobs for countless workers and strong support for other industries. Second, if conditions permit, owning a car can make us work more efficiently. Finally, life willbecome more convenient. A car allows one to move freely and with a car there is no need to wait for the bus in the cold or under the burning sun.However, others strongly object to the increase in developing private cars. They hold that automobiles will give rise to a series of problems. In the first place, as more and more cars are produced and run in the street, a large volume of poisonous gas will be given off, polluting the atmosphere and causing actual harm to the health of people. Next, private cars contribute to traffic congestion so greatly that the advantages gained in comfort and freedom are often cancelled out by the frustration caused by traffic jams. The last problem is the increasing number of car accidents that have killed and will kill a lot of people in a friction of a second.In my opinion, although automobiles have been playing a vital part in the daily activities of our society, they also bring us numerous troubles such as more serious environmental pollution, more traffic accidents and more angry consumption. They drink up huge amounts of fuel and throw out huge amounts of pollutants. Traffic accidents kill thousands and thousands of people each year and cripple more. Jams waste our precious time. Therefore I am against developing private cars.6. 專八范文背誦：好鄰居的標準是什么？編輯點評：幾乎每個家庭都有鄰居，并且，每個完整的家庭都有鄰居。鄰居是一個家庭不可或缺的一部分。什么樣的鄰居是好鄰居呢？說說你的想法。Neighbors are the people who live near us. In your opinion, what are the qualities of a good neighbor? Use specific details and examples in your answer.If you have a good neighbor, you are a lucky person. You have someone who cares about your needs and your property, who is helpful in the little day-to-day situations that come up, and who is supportive in times of crisis.A good neighbor is someone who, for instance, understands that your children may occasionally run across his lawn, even though you tell them not to. Hell realize that children can be careless about things like that, and he wont make a big fuss about it unless itbecomes a regular thing. In the same vein, he knows that youll understand if some of the trash from his trash cans blows across into your yard. IN other words, he is sensitive to the unintentional things that can happen.
