“Yes，” he answered 【4】. “Go along this street and turn left at the second crossing. You can't 【5】 it.”

So I walked two blocks(街區(qū)) and 【6】 to my left, but the museum wasn't there. Then I asked a second stranger. He said, “Go 【7】 this street and turn left at the second crossing.” But again I couldn't find the museum. I asked a 【8】 stranger and he said the same thing.

This time I found the museum. Just then someone walked up and said to me, “Excuse me, where's the nearest 【9】？” I answered 【10】， “Go along this street and turn left at the second crossing.”

However，some kind of stress is good. Excitement might happen when you are called to give a speech at school. You feel nervous but excited. This kind of stress can help you to get things well done. And you may do a better job in your test if the stress pushes you to prepare more beforehand.

On the other hand，bad stress can last long if you are unable to solve your problems. You may not feel well，if your parents are having a quarrel，if a family member is badly ill，if you're doing poorly at school，or if anything else makes you unhappy. This kind of stress isn't going to help you. And it can actually let you down in your daily life.

The best way to fight the stress is to have a balanced life. Make sure you get enough sleep and eat properly. Have some regular exercise. You should take some time for fun. Get advice from your parents，teachers and friends. Soon after that，you'll probably get away from your stress.

Research shows that babies cry more in yellow bedrooms，and families are easier to fight in yellow kitchens. But yellow isn't all bad. The color is known to improve confidence and learning. A yellow classroom may be good for your headache，and at the same time it might actually help you solve those challenging math problems.

Other colors also have helpful effects on people. For example，blue helps the body relax，and orange tends(趨向于) to improve a person's mood and make a person want to eat.

Colors were used to treat illnesses. Four thousand years ago，the Egyptians built healing temples of light，which filtered(過濾) some of the sun's rays(光線) and bathed patients in some colors to treat some illnesses.

Recently，studies have shown that colors can influence us though we don't see them. Kurt Goldstein，a famous scientist，is sure that a blindfolded(蒙住眼的) person will experience physical reactions under rays of different colors. In other words，the skin reads colors，and our bodies，minds and emotions reply to them.

I am a person who can get angry easily. But 【1】 an article from my English teacher，things have changed a lot.

I am studying at a middle school，so I have to learn not 【2】 how to study well，but also how to get on well with 【3】．Some of us are outgoing while others are quiet.

As the article says，“We cannot change the way other people act，so it is 【4】 to learn to live happily with them.”
