Being healthy means taking care of yourself physically and mentally. Here are some of my best tips on how to do both:

Break a bad habit.

You don’t really “break” habits. You replace the unwanted behavior with some thing that prevents you from doing it and that doesn’t have unhealthy side effects. So if your problem is that you eat too much when you get home from work, find something new to do that is incompatible (不能共存的) with what you usually do. You can’t walk around the track at the school and pig out in your kitchen at the same time.

Grow your marriage.

Relationships are negotiated, and the negotiation never stops. It’s always a give- and – take, always requires work. It’s like if you planted a garden and came back six months later – you wouldn’t even be able to find it. You have to tend it, feed it, weed it, deal with the problems.

Beat stress.

My dog, Maggie, is the best anti – stress tool I have. A few minutes petting, scratching or playing with her, and                            . Exercise also helps. Just about every day, I’m on the tennis court. It’s a great workout, and if I don’t have that, I don’t cope as well, sleep as well or think as well.

Refocus your anger.

Expressing your anger is just not that good an idea. You say things you don’t mean, and you can’t un – ring that bell. Instead, recognize that anger is usually a symptom of hurt, fear or frustration (挫折),and deal with the causes rather than blow up. When you do that, you’re a problem solver.

Don’t medicate with food.

It never, ever works. You’re denying your issue by eating your way through it, instead of saying, Hey, I’ve got a problem.

 “Who is that?” When watching the movie, Silver Linings Playbook, at the Toronto International Film Festival in early September, the woman sitting next asked me.

It seemed to be a strange question. I wanted to ask if she ever saw a little movie called The Hunger Games, or the Oscar-nominated movie Winter’s Bone. Instead, I just answered, “Jennifer Lawrence.” But I wondered how a moviegoer does not recognize Lawrence! As Silver Linings Playbook continued to unfold and Lawrence revealed herself as a wonderful comic actress, it hit me: this woman probably has never seen Jennifer Lawrence smile before. That is the thing throwing her.

Audiences will have the opportunity to watch Lawrence’s performance in Silver Linings Playbook when the film opens in limited release before a Thanksgiving weekend blowout expansion. The 22-year-old actress heads this year’s lead actress Oscar race by a country mile. Here’s an early main list of some competitors in this category.

1. Jennifer Lawrence in Silver Linings Playbook

2. Quvenzhane Wallis in Beasts of the Southern Wild

3. Marion Cotillard in Rust and Bone

3. Helen Mirren in Hitchcock

5. Emmanuelle Riva in Amour

6. Jessica Chastain in Zero Dark Thirty

Chastain, playing a CIA agent in Kathryn Bigelow’s Zero Dark Thirty, is the wild card here and, quite possibly, the only candidate capable of replacing Lawrence from the top spot. The cruelty in Rust and Bone will put off sensitive academy members, making Cotillard lose chances for a second Oscar. Wallis makes for a wonderful story, but it is too early for her to be awarded a lead actress. Riva will need a push to win the nomination of lead actress.

Mirren, as the Alfred Hitchcock’s wife and unsung partner, Alma Reville, might pose the biggest threat to Lawrence. Older academy members will love the historical Hollywood seen in Hitchcock, and Mirren’s role as the unsung wind beneath Hitch’s wings should find appreciation within creative circles. It’s not “The Queen”. but this year, it might be enough.

    阅读下面的短文并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）

    Reading to oneself is modem activity which was almost unknown to the learned in the early days of the history，while during the fifteenth century the term“reading”undoubtedly meant reading aloud．Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become popular．

One should be careful，however，of supposing that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is distraction to others．Examination of reasons connected with the historical development of silent reading shows that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character．

The last century saw a gradual increase in literacy and thus in the number of readers．As readers increased，the number of listeners dropped，and thus there Was some reduction in the need to read aloud．As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common，so came the popularity of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries，trains and offices，where reading aloud would disturb other readers in a way．

    Towards the end of the century there was still heated argument over whether books should be

used for information or treated respectfully，and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers Was in some way mentally weakening．Indeed this argument remains with us still in education．However，whatever its advantages，the old shared literacy culture had gone and Was replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and magazines for a specialized readership                        ．

      By the end of the century students were being advised to have some new ideas of books and to use skills in reading them which were not proper，if not impossible，for the oral reader．The social，cultural，and technological developments in the century had greatly changed what the term“reading”referred to．
