My dear boys and girls, good morning. Today Tm going to talk to you about my tips about how to become stronger.
As you start a new term, you might feel a bit worried or nervous. These feelings aren't fun to have. But would your favorite superhero have these same feelings?
Behavioral scientists have been studying what they call the “Spider-man Effect (效应)” in children. They’ve found that if kids imagine themselves a strong figure 一 such as a superhero like Spider-man 一 they won't feel nervous and will be able to focus on their work.
For example, if you feel nervous during an exam, try to imagine that you are Spider-man. You may find that you can ”remove” the stress from this situation and feel more confident. This can help you fight off bad feelings and focus on your task, just like a superhero would. Pretending to be powerful makes us feel powerful, and that will have an influence on how we act in real life.
____________ Anyone you admire can inspire (鼓舞）you to get through hard times, or
remind you of how you should act in certain situations. Movie stars, famous painters, even our own parents----anyone can be our “spider-man”.
For example, when it comes to how I communicate with others, I like to look toward Mister Rogers for inspiration. He was a TV host who was always kind and thoughtful when dealing with other people. I try to act the same way toward other people as much as I can.
