Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35
When you wake up in the morning, do you
assume ( cho rằng) that you're going to have a great day or that you're going
to have a difficult day? If you normally have positive expectations, you might consider yourself an
optimist( người lạc quan), and if
your expectations are usually negative, you may be a
pessimist( người bi quan).
According to research done by the Mayo Clinic,
optimism(sự lạc quan/ chủ nghĩa lạc quan) can have a strong positive effect on your health.(35)
Their research shows that optimists may live longer, get colds less often, and be less likely to suffer from
cardiovascular disease( bệnh liên quan đến tim mạch). Optimists may even deal with stress better than pessimists do.
If you think you might be a pessimist and would like to try to be more optimistic, pay attention to what some
call "self-talk." The term "self-talk"
refers to( liên quan đến) the automatic thoughts that go through your head all the time. You
know-the ideas, worries, beliefs, and hopes that run through your mind as you're driving, washing dishes, folding
laundry. Are those thoughts negative like, "Everyone knows so much more than I do," or positive like, "I'm
learning a lot at this job"?
If your self-talk is negative, there are some things you can do to
steer( chuyển hướng) it in a more positive direction. First,
you can simply stop your negative self-talk. Every time you catch yourself thinking something negative, you can
stop yourself by actually saying. "Stop," out loud. Alternatively, you can
revise ( xem xét lại)your self-talk. For example, if you
catch yourself saying, "I'm terrible at giving presentations," revise that to a question like, "How can I improve my
presentation skills?" Another idea is to think of yourself as a friend. When you "hear"
a negative sentence(34) go
through your mind, think about whether or not you would feel comfortable saying
it to a friend. If the sentence
seems too mean to say to a friend, think about what would sound better.
