     Bad days happen to us all. Often a day that starts out bad just continues to get worse. But why?
     Sometimes there's a "domino effect (多米諾骨牌效應(yīng))" with bad events. For example, you sleep
through the alarm, so you're stressed. And you will sit in the bad traffic, which will also make you late to
work, etc.
     How can we turn a bad day to a good day? Here are some ideas that have worked for me:
     Smile (微笑) a lot
     Smiling a lot will help you feel relaxed. Research has shown that smiling produces three useful
chemicals (化學(xué)物質(zhì)) which make us feel good.
     Talk to a good friend
     Talk to someone who cares and listens really does help us feel better, too.
     Concentrate on your good things
     It's hard to concentrate on how bad things are when you're concentrating on how good things are!
Think of 10 or more things you're thankful for, and you'll achieve a whole new outlook (人生觀) on
your day.
     Get some exercise
     If you can, go for a walk. Exercising will help you feel better. Exercising can get your day back to be
normal again.
     Make the day a challenge
     If you make yourself think of the day as a challenge, you'll start to do all the things you can to make
your day better.

      She is a cute, quiet girl. As a daughter, she has no secrets from her mother, who is very pleased with
her. But these days she has become not so open as before. She has a diary that she keeps under lock and
key (嚴(yán)密保管). Her mother cannot help worrying about her: what if she falls in love, which is too early
of her age? After all she is reaching the "dangerous time". These thoughts have caused trouble in the
mother's mind.
     One weekend the girl came to tell her mother that she was going to the cinema with her schoolmate
and would return late. This was the first time her mother agreed, and she couldn't help worrying because
her daughter had never been away at night before. The mother waited till nine. She decided to go out to
meet her daughter. Just at that time the noise of a car drew her to the window and---there was her
daughter, waving goodbye to a boy. Her heart missed a beat. When the girl came in, the mother was
watching TV, just like nothing had happened. "Mum, I'm back." "Yeah." "Sorry to be late. Still sitting up?"
 "Yes. Oh, that… Who's that boy?" The daughter was stunned (發(fā)楞) for some time. "Ah. It's my monitor.
He gave me a lift on his way home. Mum, I'm going to bed." "All right. Go to sleep early."
     Next morning when the mother went to the daughter's room to do some cleaning, she found her diary
left on the bed. After a few minutes'thinking, she at last opened it to the page of the night before. It reads:
Mum, it's love that made you ask, but it would show your understanding of me if you hadn't.
