19、 Reading Comprehension.
Many teenagers go through sudden mood swings during adolescence. Heavy homework, conflicts with family or friendship troubles often leave them anxious and worn out. To live up to the theme A better me, our class designed pocket-sized stress-relief cards as an interdisciplinary practice combining English and PE health lessons.
Each card has two sides. On the front, students write down their real teenage troubles in complete English sentences. The back side carries simple,3-minute relaxing instructions recommended by our PE teacher. Those mild physical activities, like slow pacing, deep breathing and shoulder stretches, can ease nervous feelings by regulating body hormones ( 荷尔蒙) .
We pick a random card during class breaks and follow its guidance. This tiny routine helps us acknowledge that mood changes are normal for teens. It also teaches us practical, low-cost ways to calm ourselves down before turning to others for advice.
(1)、What does the underlined phrase "mood swings"mean?A、stable happy feelings B、sudden changes of feelings C、sports training plans(2)、What does the underlined word"regulating"mean in the text?A、controlling and adjusting B、producing and creating C、breaking and destroying(3)、What can we infer from the passage?A、Light exercise works to improve teenagers' bad moods.
