The Peer Education Project
The Peer Education Project is a school-based programme that aims to give young people the skills and knowledge they need to safeguard their mental health, and that of their peers(同龄人). By training older pupils to deliver mental health lessons to younger students, we intend to include the programme in the school course as a key source of support to young people experiencing mental health problem.
Why is peer education helpful?
·Young people always turn a deaf ear to adults and are more willing to listen to their schoolmates.
·Young people may feel more comfortable asking questions of their fellows.
·Peer-delivered programmes can provide accessible role-models and advisers.
·The Peer Education Project uses existing social networks to exercise influence and maintain the influence beyond the classroom.
What does the project teach?
·It introduces mental health as something that we all have, like physical health.
·It encourages students to think about ways to stay well, how to seek help and support friends.
·It introduces some common wrong opinions about mental health, and deals with the discrimination(歧视) against people with mental problems.

From two-time winner on the Ladies European Tour(LET) to Wales' first ever Sondheim Cup player, there were many ways for onlookers to label Becky Brewer-ton in 2012, but none got close to the way she was describing herself.
In January 2012, Brewer-ton was enjoying a peaceful Sunday afternoon in Spain before deciding to venture out on a bike ride. One small stone on a corner later got the 29-year-old flying headfirst over the handlebars, cutting her head and tearing half the skin on her right hand. The crash was so severe that it left a cut around her hip joint(髋关节) big enough to fit her entire thumb into. Suddenly becoming near-disabled, she was always feeling genuinely scared on the golf course, but could do little to get rid of such feelings. After shooting 88 on the opening day at the Ladies European Masters in 2016, she was told by officials that she could not return for the second round. Then, almost overnight, her game disappeared. In Brewer-ton's own words, she had hit rock bottom.
As Brewer-ton's ranking fell downwards, so too did her income. She worked for Amazon, Deliveroo, and then in the professional shop of a golf club. Without a place to live, she stayed with a friend and former physical trainer for two and a half years. Working other jobs acted as a "reality check", offering a perspective of how lucky she felt to be a professional sportsperson. She began journaling and meditating. Despite her struggles, Brewer-ton never fell out of love with golf. After returning to LET qualifying school to regain her Tour card, by the end of 2021, Brewer-ton found herself again enjoying golf.
While she dreams of a return to silverware, the 39-year-old is targeting a success beyond wins. "I've absolutely, hand on heart, promised myself that I'm not going to interpret those days as bad things, because this is what we live for." she said.
4. What did the cycling experience mean to Brewer-ton's career?
A. A starting line. B. A tough challenge.
C. A breakthrough. D. A turning point.
5. Why did Brewer-ton work different jobs in paragraph 3?
A. To make ends meet. B. To gain work experience.
C. To change her perspective. D. To make golf her passion.
6. Which of the following can best describe Brewer-ton?
A. Consistent and positive. B. Determined and reliable.
C. Inventive and independent. D. Adventurous and responsible.
7. What does Brewer-ton's story tell us?
A. Constant dropping wears the stone.
B. Every man is his own worst enemy.
C. Difficult circumstances serve as a textbook of life.
D. When a man is going down-hill, everyone will give him a push.
C
One way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognize its benefits. It is a mistake to think that we'd make better decisions if only we keep our feelings under control. Instead, a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical thinking leads to sound decision-making. It's true that there is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making. There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.
Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationship (for example, they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognizing people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present.
In the real world though, it's worth realizing that feeling anxious once in a while is extremely common. It communicates to others that you care, and what's more, it's probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: if you're a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagine possible plots, including bad ones.
The important thing, if you are a worrywart, is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And don't bury your head in the sand Instead, act on your fears—do the research as well as preparation, so rather than walking blindly into that which you fear, you meet the challenge in full readiness.
When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a serious problem. No one is denying that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or an interview, you needn't see it as your enemy. Anxiety is an important feeling, developed through evolution. As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is reason for cheer, too. Your nerves are a sign of your watchfulness.
Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness you're your advantage.
8. What can we infer from the first paragraph about anxiety?
A. It can be the only reason for all bad decisions.
B. It can make us more willing to take risks.
C. It can enable us to be more focused.
D. It can stop us from thinking logically.
9. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk.
B. Anxious people are less sensitive to danger.
C. Feeling anxious occasionally is a sign of intelligence.
D. Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars.
10. How should we deal with anxiety in the author's opinion?
A. Treat it as a minor feeling. B. Avoid being defeated by it.
C. Regard it as our enemy. D. Take action to control it.

A. Tips on how to keep a good mood.

Quite often, no matter how good you are, your success is dependent on how other people such as your boss, peers, clients and customers perceive(感知) your communication and responses.
So when you come to people who make the key difference between helping you or holding you back, how can you influence and persuade them to give what you want?
Psychological research repeatedly shows that people generally make up their minds whether to help or hinder(阻碍) you, based on whether they like you or not. It is human nature. What can you do about it? You need to make a good impression on others to ensure they like you and give you what you want. Research again shows that people give opportunities to the people they like best. In fact, most people make up their minds about other people in the first five minutes or less of meeting someone. These are called first impressions or "moments of truth".
Once they make up their minds, they tend to be very reluctant to change their opinions. You hardly have room for error when making a first impression on a new acquaintance. Therefore, whether you are applying for a job, going for an interview, attending a meeting with your boss or peers, or serving a customer, you need to prepare yourself mentally and rehearse how you will manage the first few minutes of your interaction. This includes doing your homework to gather information and researching all possible issues so you will know how to address them if the other party should raise them unexpectedly.
It is amazing how poorly some people can come across at the beginning. The worst thing is that they do not even seem to realize it. Despite having good qualifications and excellent work performance, the candidates cannot be excused from trying to make good first impressions.
12. Which of the following is the way people tend to decide whether to like other people or not?
A. They make quick decisions.
B. They change their opinions frequently.
C. They prefer people who are experienced.
D. They pay much attention to good qualifications.
13. Which of the following strategies might help in an interview according to the author?
A. Show your friendliness and confidence.
B. Ask the interviewers for homework to do.
C. Know as much as possible about the situation.
D. Do something unexpected to impress the interviewers.
14. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Making a good first impression.
B. Approaches to applying for a job.
C. People making the key difference.
D. Winning strategies for a job interview.
15. What will probably be talked about in the next part of the passage?
A. Questions that might be asked by the interviewers.
B. How to win over people who don't like you at first.
C. Examples of how good first impressions help people succeed.
D. Some specific advice on how to make a good first impression.

17._______ If you're interviewing for a job, review the posting and take advantage of the whole information on the Internet about your potential company.
