You surely want to take a good school yearbook photo, for you only get to do it once, and it’s what people remember you by for the whole school year. Learn how to look good and look natural in your yearbook photo with these simple tips.

1. Practice smiling in a mirror. It sounds crazy, but figuring out how to make a natural looking smile for the camera does need a little preparation. Don’t be shy! Just imagine you are in front of a camera —hold your head high, look straight into the mirror and smile. Keep practicing until you find out your most attractive smiling face.

2. Choose your color wisely. In yearbook photos, lots of people look good in darker colors because they draw attention to the face. Generally, white often isn’t the best choice because it can make your skin look a bit gray, especially if you’re pale. Besides, stay away from super(超级的)-bright colors ( bright yellow, bright blue) unless you’re really sure they make you look perfect.

3. Avoid unnecessary details. Busy patterns draw attention to themselves in yearbook photos, not to your face and smile. Save them for your everyday fashion experiments. Besides, have your clothes prepared for the day when the yearbook photo is taken. The last thing you want to do is pick out the perfect thing to wear, only to find that it’s in the laundry.

4. Avoid big changes to your appearance. Big changes may not turn out the way you hope. Leave some time to do your hair, such as combing(梳头) it up right before the yearbook photo is taken. Don’t overdo it, since you want your hair to stay in one place and your face to draw all the attention, but go for the "less is more" approach.

1.The best title of this passage is ______.

A. How to Make Yourself Look Good

B. How to Do When Taking a School Photo

C. How to Get Ready for Your School Photo-taking

D. How to Make a Good School Photo Book

2.A bright yellow shirt is not a good choice for taking photos because _______.

A. it reflects light with the brightness

B. it makes people look gray and pale

C. it draws more attention than the face

D. it suits nobody in front of a camera

3.The underlined part "less is more" in the last paragraph means _______.

A. common hair style is more attractive than the over-done

B. simple hair style makes your face more attractive

C. spending less time on hair makes you look more attractive

D. combing the hair up right costs less time but means more

4.During the preparation for photo-taking ______.

A. a camera is needed

B. clothes should be in the laundry

C. fashion should be perfectly showed

D. big changes are not needed

How to Strengthen Your Willpower

Researchers find willpower is like a muscle—it may get tired from over use. So, if it acts like a muscle, can it also be strengthened? The answer is YES. 1.

1. Ten minutes of reflection

Reflection will give you the fater results. 2. Researchers show that after just 2—3 days of practicing thinking for 10 minutes, your brain will be able to focus better, you will have more energy, and you aill be less stressed.

2. Work on your posture

Work on your posture for a 2-week period. Every time you catch yourself slouching(懒散), correct it by sitting up straight. This simple practice can vastly improve your perseverance.

3. Use your opposite hand

Select a chunk(块) of the day to use your opposite hand. 3. And from personal experience, if you aim for more than an hour, you will unnecessarily tire out your willpower muscle.

4. Correct your speech

Change your natural speech. 4. Again, it takes willpower to consciously go against your instincts. It doesn’t matter how you correct your speech, as long as you change natural speech habits.

To get started, select a chunk of the day to practice and choose the words you will change. Personally, I tried not using contractions during work hours and it worked very well.

Above are some effective ways to strengthen your perseverance. Do not try to do all at once. 5. You should start small and gradually build up as your muscles get stronger.

A. Training your willpower muscle is like training for a marathon.

B. This even includes resisting the urge to say “hello” instead of “hey”.

C. You will be more mentally strong.

D. With the right practice willpower can be strengthened.

E. It can make your brain focus and resist the urge to wander.

F. Be more conscious of your automic decisions.

G. It doesn’t need to be more than an hour in order to get results.

The past is good for two things: the happy memories, and the lessons it provides. Take some time to think and create two lists: One, your Top Five Most Important Lessons Learned in the Year. And two, your Top Five Favorite Memories of the Year. 1.

Take some time to think

2. But you just invested 8760 or so hours of your life in the previous year. To pull what is worth pulling from it, to give it proper perspective and proper closure, it surely deserves some of your focused conscious energy.

3.

Maybe you lost half your investments this year. Or your job. Or your house. Or you faced health challenges. You may dwell on the negative, self-defeating questions like “How could I be so stupid?” or “How could God let this happen to me?” But a child doesn’t touch fire, get burned, and then spend the rest of his days – or even hours – thinking bitterly how this could have happened to him. He learns not to touch the fire and twenty minutes later he is happily playing again. 4.

Don’t bang on the beehive（蜂窝）

When discussing the past year I have already heard so many people stating how bad it was. I hear them recalling all the bad memories. It is like banging on a beehive. Because here is a universal law: whatever you seek, you will find plenty of. 5. Likewise, if you are focused on good memories, the beauty in the world, and things to feel grateful for, they will nourish your mind, your heart, and allow your life to blossom.

A. Learn from the past experiences

B. First and foremost, bear in mind that the key aspect of this experience is to “take some time to think”.

C. No matter how much you have invested, sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is let go.

D. In today’s go-go faster-faster world, you may be attracted to rush through this experience, to treat it like another task to get off your to-do list.

E. Remember the wisdom of a child

F. If you are focused on bad memories, problems, and things to complain about, they will drown your mind and your heart, and sting your life.

G. Now before you race off to do this, read the rest that provides important perspective on doing this.
