答案與詳解

PART Ⅰ WRITING SECTION A COMPOSITION

THE IMPORTANCE OF KEEPING A GOOD MOOD

　　People in modern society live under a lot of pressure. I see three kinds of pressure working on people today: pressure from education, family and career. It is easy to blame the school for charging too much money, the family members for the heavy burden, the society for the fierce competition. I think people should relax. It is important for them to keep a good mood under whatever circumstances.

　　Long gone are the days when people lived their life with a certain relaxation, sampling a wide variety of activities-film, music, art, poetry. But now, a lot of people suffer from a lot of pressure. They can't communicate well with co-workers and family members, and have unbalanced, one-dimensional lives. Some people complain of symptoms of stress, for instance, loss of appetite, a complete sense of exhaustion, insomnia and low morale. Thus have destructive effect on their health. People tend to lose temper easily, and this may interfere personal relationship. What's more, a high rate of suicide may warn people of their emotional well-being.

　　To be a healthy person physically and psychologically, one should keep a good mood, according to some psychology experts. Those little things may seem relatively insignificant-reading mystery novels, playing volleyball, spending time with family and friends, maintaining your emotional well-being, getting plenty of rest, going fishing. They can help you keep a good mood.
