Good morning,everyone!It's a pleasure to be here with you today.Welcome to the deserted city,a warm place to relax yourself and share though-provoking essays.This's crystal,This's Nancy. We We are here waiting for you.
How time flies! Do you still remember the day when you first get into university? Facing with the new environment, we were excited and also a little nervous.But now,we are going to greet the first challenge in our college,that is the final examination.
Many freshmen are now in deep confusion about how to prepare for it,some even lose confidence.But we would like to tell you:the first thing to do for your exams is to change your mind, be an optimist and try your best to prepare it.Now, let's start the new essay.
Be an optimist
If you change your mind - from pessimism to optimism - you can change your life.Do you see the glass as half-full rather than half empty?Do you keep your eye upon the doughnut, or upon the hole?Suddenly these cliches are scientific questions, as researchers scrutinize the power of positive thinking.Research is proving that optimism can help you to be happier, healthier and more successful.Pessimism leads, by contrast, to hopelessness, sickness and failure, and is linked to depression,loneliness and painful shyness. If we could teach people to think more positively,it would be like inoculating them against these mental ills.
Your habits count but the belief that you can succeed affects whether or not you will.In part, that’s because optimists and pessimists deal with the same challenges and disappointments in very different ways.When things go wrong the pessimist tends to blame himself.“I’m not good at this.”“I always fail.”He would say. But the optimist looks for loopholes.Negative or positive, it was a self-fulfilling prophecy.If people feel hopeless they don’t bother to acquire the skills they need to succeed.
A sense of control is the litmus test for success. The optimist feels in control of his own life.If thingsare going badly, he acts quickly, looking for solutions, forming a new plan of action,and reaching out foradvice. The pessimist feels like fate’s plaything and moves slowly.He doesn’t seek advice, since he assumes nothing can be done.Many studies suggest that the pessimist’s feeling of helplessness undermines the body’s natural defenses,the immune system. Research has found that the pessimist doesn’t take good care of himself.Feeling passive and unable to dodge life’s blows, he expects ill health and other misfortunes,no matter what he does. He munches on junk food, avoids exercise, ignores the doctor, has another drink.
Most people are a mix of optimism and pessimism, but are inclined in one direction or the other.It is a pattern of thinking learned at our mothers’ knees.It grows out of thousands of cautions or encouragements, negative statements or positive ones.Too many “don’t” and warnings of danger can make a child feel incompetent, fearful and pessimistic. Pessimism is a hard habit to break - but it can be done.
That's all for today, we hope you have enjoyed our program .See you next time,bye,bye.
