With healthy self-confidence you’ll take more chances and overcome obstacles faster. How do you boost your self-confidence? Here are some easy-to-try-out trips.
Speak well of yourself. We become what we think about most of the time. If you continually tell yourself you “can’t do something”, you’re sure to create that reality for yourself, because that is how you see yourself. On the other hand, if you repeatedly say and think to yourself something like, “I am capable of creating a life I love”, soon you will begin creating a life you love.
Surround yourself with self-confident people and positive environments. It sounds a bit obvious, but if you have friends that lack confidence, you probably do too. If you’re surrounded by people who criticize others and speak poorly of themselves, get out! Remove yourself from their company. Seek out friends who are confident and you’ll feel your confidence increasing.
Don’t say you’re going to do something unless you really intend to do it. We’ve all met the “big talkers” – people who talk about their big plans but never do anything to make them happen. The “big talkers” lose face because no one believes they’ll do what they say they’re going to do.
Accept fear and obstacles as a natural part of life and growth. Don’t beat yourself up when you find yourself gripped(抓住) by fear and other emotions. Be aware when these feelings are present but don’t let them stop you. Keep moving forward by telling yourself you’re much more than the obstacles you face and failures you experience.
Once a month, take a few moments to write down all that you have done well. Acknowledge the work you do and your strengths on a regular basis. In doing so, you’ll begin seeing and appreciating all the good you do.
| A．Start with small steps. |
| B．We become what we say about ourselves. |
| C．Negative environments are hard to escape. |
| D．Don’t judge yourself for having these feelings. |
E. In fact, no company is better than bad company.
F. Take action on what you say you’re going to do.
G. Take time out to focus on all that you have done well.

Climate change to make downpours more violent: expert NICKY PHILLIPS 2:55pm If you’re sick of the heavy rain, you’d better get used to it. The downpours and flash flooding Sydney experienced over the past few days are going to become more frequent, the expert says. |

Seven million people died as a result of air pollution in 2013, the World Health Organization says. PETER HANNAM 1:26 pmIts findings suggest a link between air pollution and heart diseases, lung problems and cancers. |
请阅读以下新闻信息，然后匹配与上面新闻相关的报道内容。The study by scientists at Germany’s Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research in Kiel examined five possible methods of climate engineering as a means of heading off the worst influences of global warming, along with widespread tree plantings of the deserts, and the study examined three methods involving the ocean.
The report, to be given later this month by the IPCC and obtained by The Independent in Britain, says that food security will increasingly be threatened, with crop output to drop by as much as 2 percent per decade for the rest of the century. Demand, though, is on course to rise 14 per cent per decade until the year of 2050.
One in eight global deaths were linked with air pollution, making it “the world’s largest single environmental health risk”, the WHO said. Nearly six million of the deaths had been in South East Asia and the WHO’s Western Pacific area, about 3.3 million died as a result of indoor air pollution and 2.6 million outdoors, it found.
As the atmosphere heats up because of climate change, more rain in Sydney will most likely cause disaster with traffic and public transport and may increase the number of people injured or killed in flash floods, such as the man who drowned after being swept in to a storm water drain at Lucas Heights on Monday, said Nicky Phillips.
A five-year assessment by IPCC details the global influence because of the climate change, including the displacement of hundreds of millions of people, reduced crop output and increased the loss of millions of dollars of the economy, which harms Australia’s economy in many industries very seriously.

阅读下列材料，从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中，选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。
A.Smile more often.
B.Be a good listener.
C.Show that you consider them important.
D.Remember and use people’s names.
E.Talk to people in terms of their interests.
F.Give others chances to talk about themselves.
G.Some ways to make people like you_____________
Studies show that the word that people say more than any other word is “I”. People love to talk about themselves, their lives, their hobbies, their families, their passions, etc. when you become interested in people, ask them questions and allow them to talk. They will like you for that.______________
We’ve all been in situations where you recognize a person but can’t remember his/ her name. it’s awkward, uncomfortable and sometimes embarrassing. If you want to make people like you, you need to begin to remember their names. Develop a system. When you meet someone use his/ her name 3 times in your conversation, or write down his/ her name in a notebook with some notes about him/her after the conversation.________________
Listening is an active process. It is much more than being silent. It involves empathy, which is to walk in the speaker’s shoes and understand his/ her feeling. Listening is a skill that is developed with practice and as you master it, people will like you more and more._________________
People love it when you talk to them in terms of their interests. They love it when you are knowledgeable on subjects they enjoy. They love it when you can have intelligent conversation with them about what matters most to them. One way to do this is to study topics of their interests before you meet with people. If you know that you will have a business lunch with a huge baseball fan, then take some time to broaden your knowledge of the game.________________
Making people feel they are important can be done in all kinds of ways. You can give a compliment, remember their birthday or a spe4cial occasion, recognize them for their skills and contribution or give them a gift. Leave every person happier for having met you.
