I woke up late and had breakfast in a hurry. I had never been late and didn’t want my boss to be unsatisfied. However, it seemed that day wasn’t a lucky one for me from the very second I left my flat. The moment I wanted to rush downstairs one of my stiletto heels (細高跟) broke. I had to return to change my red shoes. I also had to change my purse and other little things that I had tried to match with the shoes. I was sure I would be late for work.
On my way to work I had to wait for over half an hour because of an accident. I had no choice but to wait. I phoned my boss and he told me that it was no problem, but he needed me for the meeting with the Japanese clients (客戶) that morning.
Finally, I arrived at the office one hour later. I had to keep calm and be fresh for the meeting to make the clients sure that our plan was the best for their future commercial (商業的) project. However, I left the plan I had made the night before at home and was going to present (介紹) it to the clients. I was about to get angry when I realized that I had a draft (草稿) of it in my office. At last, the presentation came to an end and it turned out to be a success. But I have to say that I had a terrible day, full of incidents (事件).

A. She got up late in the morning.

Have you ever felt sick to your stomach during a test? Have you ever been so worried about something that you ended up with a terrible headache?
If so, then you know what it’s like to feel stress. You’ve probably heard people say, “Wow, I’m really stressed out.” 1. But children have lots of things going on in their lives that can cause stress, too.
What is stress?
Stress is what you feel when you are worried or uncomfortable about something. This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. You may feel angry, frustrated, scared, or afraid --- which can give you a stomachache or a headache.
What causes stress?
Plenty of things can cause stress in a child’s life. 2. Good or normal stress might show up when you’re called on in class or when you have to give a report. Have you ever gotten butterflies in your stomach or sweaty hands? Those can be signs of good stress. 3. For example, you may do a better job on your book report if the anxiety inspires you to prepare well before you get up and read it to the class.
But bad stress can happen if the stressful feelings keep going over time. You may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is sick, if you’re having problems at school, or if you’re going through anything else that makes you upset every day. 4.
Once you recognize that you’re feeling stressed, there are several things you can do. You can try talking about what’s bothering you with an adult you trust, like a parent or teacher. 5. An adult may have ideas about how to solve whatever is worrying you or making you uncomfortable.
A. This kind of stress can help you to get things done.
B. Maybe you hear adults say those kinds of things all the time.
C. Bring up what’s been on your mind and how it makes you feel.
D. Everyone experiences stress at times --- adults, teens, and even kids.
E. There are ways to reduce stress and manage the stress that’s unavoidable.
F. That kind of stress isn’t going to help you, and it can actually make you sick.
G. The trick is to remember that some types of stress are good and others are bad.

There are other habits which, when formed in early life, are of great help． Many successful men say that much of their success has something to do with certain habits in early life, such as early rising, honesty and so on．
Among the habits which children should not form are laziness, lying, stealing and so on．These are all easily formed habits．Unfortunately older persons often form habits which could have been avoided ．
