fit this into my busy schedule of homework, games and friends? It was not my ideal Saturday, but

I went anyway. Me and my grandmother... nothing to talk about.

, my Saturday morning wasn't painful. I was interested in listening about her recent trip to

Europe and how she saw the famous Eiffel Tower. She told me stories about her sewing class and

As a teenager, I hated PE lessons. I was not very good at sports, and I

hated team sports because I always felt like I was disappointing the rest of

the team. During these years, I sometimes felt disconnected from my body

like only my brain was

（运载工具）

for carrying my brain around.

When I started university, I decided to try a kung fu club. To my surprise, I loved it! In my

first year, most of us were beginners. I used to go two or three times a week. Because it is not a

team sport, I didn't feel sorry about not being very good. And because it is a combat

（格斗）

sport,

you train in pairs, which means that you get to meet people and talk to them. I also appreciated

（欣赏）

that the focus of the classes was on getting better at kung fu, rather than exercising to

change my body. When I was doing kung fu, my body changed

—

I got stronger and quicker

—

but

the changes were a side effect of the sport, instead of the goal.

When I moved to Italy this year, I decided to start doing a combat sport again. I joined a local

martial arts

（

武术）

club and I loved it. We did lots of sparring

（

拳击）

.I think that sparring is like

chess, but much faster and much more fun! If your sparring partner tries to hit you hard with his

fist, you have to move quickly to avoid him, block or even catch his arm and then throw him to the

mat.

When I was a teenager, I would say I just wasn't a sporty person and that I just didn't like

C. at the gym

D. on the Internet

sport and never would. Now I think that everyone should try as many sports as possible because I

believe there is something out there for everyone! I feel connected to my body and I am happier

and have more energy when I have been doing sport.

24. Why did the writer hate PE lessons when he was a teenager?

A. Because he was not very good at sports.

B. Because his teammates were not friendly.

C. Because he couldn't understand his PE teacher.

D. Because there was something wrong with his body.

25. What club did the writer go to when he was at university?

A. A martial arts club.

C. A kung fu club.

B. A chess club.

D. A boxing club.

26. How did the writer become a sporty person?

A. He set a goal to get stronger.

B. He played many team sports.

C. He did fast and fun sports every day.

D. He tried and found the right sport for him.

Do you get upset because you can't complete what you want to? For instance, you might want

to clean out your closets or write that novel you've been putting off. Maybe you try to focus, but

you feel overwhelmed

（难以应付的）

.

Finding control comes down to one simple strategy

（策略）

:developing a habit of being

organized. This means you've got to think ahead. When you can get organized, keep things under

control, and live a tidy life, you can work faster and think more creatively. Here are some tips that

can help:

If it's about housework, take a few minutes each day to de

-

clutter

（清除杂乱）

. Use small

bits of time to clean out a drawer or throw old clothes into a cardboard box for donation. Get in

the habit of buying organizational tools, like containers, for storing small things.

Group similar tasks. Clean out the refrigerator while a roast is cooking. Don't jump back and

forth from room to room or jump from one task to an unrelated one. Also, you can put similar

things together. For example, look at your bookshelf and try putting all the books about each topic

in a group. Then it will be easier and faster to find the book you need.

It's a great way to make a to

-

do list. Use a calendar to plan out what you need to do each

month. Then at the start of each workday, write down three important tasks you want to achieve

that day quickly. Put a big star next to the most important one. So, before you go into the busy

work, start on the important task and see it through to the end.

Getting

organized

should

extend

to

your

activities

outside

your

home

or

office

as

well.

Putting everything in order leaves you a clear calendar to plan for more activities with friends.

Motivating

（激励）

yourself to get organized should start with the rewards you'll experience.

It's much easier to start a habit if you can imagine how the changes will make you feel.

A. your life will become busier

B. your imagination will be limited

C. you will finish the work more quickly

We often find ourselves in an endless thought loop

（圈）

?

And every so often, we try to

stop this endless flow of thoughts by telling ourselves to just stop thinking. But do we or can we

ever really stop thinking?
