9、ow much will you pay for this camp totally?A$120.B$114.C$105.D$99On a damp, boring, stay-in-the-house kind of day, I was a 4-year-old artist armed with a new treasure: my own big box of crayons. Somehow, the usual paper wasnt special enough for these 64 perfect, sweet-smelling sticks of vivid color.
10、 I looked around for a bigger canvas (画布). The walls presented an inviting yet forbidden landscape. If only there were hidden walls, walls that people could sometimes see and sometimes not. Walls like the ones in Mom and Dads closet.Slipping quietly down the hall to the bedroom, I stood on tiptoe to
11、 reach the string for the closet light. Using my whole body, I pushed aside the heavy clothes and shut the door behind me. Words and images filled my mind faster than my hands could make them.A brilliant rainbow was seen on one wall, with a cheery golden sun peeking out from above. Below, a giant sh
12、ade tree supported a swing for sick-figure (人物线条画) children. Around them, flowers bloomed everywhere. Then I drew my reddish-brown cat with its green eyes and long black whiskers.My masterpiece! All my very own magic! I took in the walls, the colors and the brightness. Joy swelled inside me. But as
13、my creativity wound down, a thought popped up: Ive got to show Mom! Suddenly I was still. I looked around with new eyes. What had I done?Mom called out, “Dinners ready.” After a short time, her footsteps approached, and then finally, the closet door opened. I stood nervously in the corner. Oh, pleas
14、e dont be mad, I thought. Please, please.Mom breathed in sharply, then stood frozen. Only her eyes moved as she slowly looked over my masterpiece. She was quiet for a long, long time. I didnt dare breathe.Finally, she turned to me.“I like it,” she said. “No, I love it! Its you! Its happy! I feel lik
15、e I have a new closet!”Now, 45 years later, my childhood artwork is still there.

19、 a good story. Our hero starts their journey as a flawed (有缺陷的) but relatable being with a personal goal. In scene after scene, they face challenges and setbacks that push them down new paths. By the end of the tale, they have succeeded and become a better person in the process. Just think of Jane E
20、yre, Luke Skywalker or Gilgamesh.We love these plots in the novels we read, the films we watch and the video games we play. But the principles of a good story offer much more than entertainment. Recent research shows that the narratives we tell ourselves about our lives can powerfully shape our resi

You could describe this as the flawed hero effect.Better yet, psychologists have found that spinning our memories into a well-told life narrative, and v
22、iewing our future as an extension of this story, can help us achieve our goals for self-improvement. And if you want to turn over a new leaf, it helps to choose a significant date that signals the start of a new “chapter”. Contrary to popular skepticism, resolutions made on 1 January are more effect

27、 and his team of artists. The self-guided tour includes important moments in Van Goghs life, and more than 300 Van Goghs paintings were digitally reproduced and edited into a 35-minute film.

28、hnology.“This showed me a new way to enjoy art. After all, not everyone can go to a museum that owns: a real Van Goghs painting,” said Samantha Kates, 14, who viewed the exhibition in Los Angeles.

29、 Van Gogh. “There was a projector that was making all of these colors appear,” Samantha said. “They would also appear on my skin, and that really made me feel a part of the painting.”11-year-old Abby Kates, who only knew The Starry Night before experiencing the exhibition in San Diego, found another
30、 benefit of the show. “My Beyond Van Gogh experience was different because I got to do yoga,” she said. “It was peaceful, and I got to think deeply and stay calm while enjoying the art.

Being fed a steady diet of destructive world events only serves to make that harder, So Ive decided to share a few strategies to avoid being completely broken down by the newsfeed right now._16_Youll
36、find it easier to make this mental mindshift if you make a conscious effort to boost your level of positive emotion by doing things you enjoy and spending time with people you love. Positive emotions leave the door open to possibility while negative emotions keep the door shut.Recognize that theres
37、a difference between being absorbed and being informedSure, you want to be aware of whats happening in the world, but that doesnt mean that you have to be absorbed into your Twitter or Facebook and aim for a balanced media diet._17_. Move toward the good, too.Look for opportunities to take action_18
38、_. But by carrying through on sort of positive action, however small (writing a letter, making a donation, attending a face-to-face get-together in your town), youll feel good. And that will help to stop what can otherwise quickly change into negative feelings of anxiety and sadness._19_Reach out-do
39、nt break down InwardConnect with other caring citizens who share your concern about whats happening in our country and our world.

44、how quickly identifying a distinctive rock or tree can restore your directions.Another _32_: Climb high and look for signs of human habitation. _33_, even in deep forest, you should be able to _34_ gaps in the tree line due to roads, train tracks, and other paths people carve _35_ the woods.
