When Mrs. Klein told her first graders to draw a picture of something for which they were thankful, she thought how little these children, who lived in a terrible neighborhood, actually had to be thankful for. Since it was Thanksgiving Day, she knew that most of the class would draw pictures of turkeys (火雞) or of Thanksgiving tables with lots of food.

What made Mrs. Klein surprised was Douglas’s picture. Douglas was so shy and likely to be found away from the others as they went outside for games. Douglas’s drawing was simply this:

A hand, clearly, but whose hand? The class was attracted by his picture. “I think it must be the hand of his mum or dad that brings us food,” said one student.

“A farmer,” said another, “because they grow the turkeys.”

“It looks more like a policeman, and they protect us.” “I think,” said Lavinia, who was always so serious, “that it is supposed to be all the hands that help us, but Douglas could only draw one of them.”

Mrs. Klein was very happy to see that the class showed so much interest in Douglas’ picture. When she had the others at work on another project, she went over to him and asked whose hand it was.

Douglas answered in a very low voice, “It’s yours, Teacher.”

Then Mrs. Klein remembered that she had taken Douglas by the hand from time to time; she often did that with the children. But that it should have meant so much to Douglas …

Perhaps, she thought, this was her Thanksgiving, and everybody’s Thanksgiving—not the material things we receive, but the small ways that we give something to others.

A bit of stress and worry might be helpful in encouraging you to do better, but too much of it can do harm to your health and stop you from working or studying. So it’s necessary for you to deal with stress and worry.

Become somebody who can know how to relax

Don’t sit down before the computer or the television set for long, or you may feel more stressed and worried. You can choose something like deep breathing or listening to some music to relax yourself instead.

Get proper exercise, food as well as sleep

You’d better exercise properly because you will feel stronger and less stressed after exercising. It is also very important for you to have enough sleep so that you can do your activities of daily life. Besides, to become energetic, you should have healthy food.

Communicate with others

If something worries you, Remember to share your problems with your family or friends. Doing so can make you feel more understood and you are not alone.

Connect with nature

When you feel low, it’s a good idea to take a walk with a friend or two. You’d better choose a place which you know well and where you feel safe in order to be able to enjoy and relax in nature.

Try thinking in the positive (積極的)manner

We have to think more of the beautiful and good things of our lives, which helps you in letting your minds go away from unnecessary stress and worry.

Ask a doctor for help

At times, stress becomes so serious that it becomes a cause of worry. In this case, it is wise for you to go to a doctor for help. He or she is able to help you solve the problem better and faster.

Title: How to Deal with Stress and Worry

Calvin waited outside Trudy’s bedroom. Then it happened—a scream, a very loud scream. Calvin ran to his room and dived into bed.

He heard Mama coming down the hall.

“Did you do this?” his mother asked. Calvin looked out from under the covers. His mother stood over him, holding a rubber spider.

“Do what?” he asked.

“You put that thing in my bed,” Trudy told him, stepping out from behind Mama.

“Don’t think that just because it’s your birthday you can get away with something like this,” Mama scolded (責(zé)罵).

“You do want your present, don’t you?” That wiped the smile off Calvin’s face.

“Course I do,” he said.

“Then you apologize (道歉).”

Calvin dropped his head. “Sorry Trudy,” he muttered (嘟囔).

“Here,” Mama said. “Happy birthday.” At the breakfast table she handed Calvin an envelope. Inside were tickets to the matinee show of Lomax the Magnificent, the world-famous magician and hypnotist. “You’ve got two tickets there,” Mama said, “and I know someone who’d really love to go along.” She smiled at Trudy.

“You don’t mean here, do you?” Calvin asked, eyeing his little sister.

“Well, that would be really nice. But those tickets are yours. If you want to ask somebody—” Calvin didn’t wait for his mother to finish. He rushed out of the house to cell Rodney, his pal next door, that the two of them were going to see Lomax the Magnificent.
