When we say someone is in a blue mood, it means he or she is unhappy or sad. It’s important for everyone to be happy. Here are some fast and easy ways to cheer you up.
Exercise
When you exercise, your brain gives out a chemical called Endorphin (内啡肽). This chemical makes you feel happy. That is why exercise is good for you.
Have a talk
If something or somebody is troubling you, don’t quarrel with other people to relax yourself. It is a good idea to have a heart-to-heart talk with a friend or a family member. Tell them your feelings. A chat is a useful way to make you feel better.
Have some hobbies
For example, playing pop music, drawing something or listening to your favorite music will make you smile. Act like an artist. Draw, paint or make something. Being active and creative makes you feel more satisfied and less nervous.
Laugh more
Laughing is the best way to improve your moods. Children laugh about 400 times a day. Adults only laugh about 20 times a day. What happens? Experts say if we laugh more, we will be happier and healthier.
Think positively
Close your eyes and imagine a beautiful scene or a time. Never think about anything terrible that you can’t change. What’s more, leave your flat and go outside. Sun and fresh air are good for you. Be a kid for a day. Play games, watch comedy movies or read jokes online.

The expression “Go for it!” is a way of encouraging someone to try something. It means you should not worry about failure or be too careful. You should take a chance and be brave.
“Go for it!” gets its name from football. But it is not the football played in most countries such as England, France or Japan, but the kind of football played in the United States and Canada.
One of the most exciting times in football comes when a team has failed, after three tries, to move the ball forward ten yards. The team must make a very important decision.
The conservative (保守的) choice is to kick the ball and accept temporary （暂时的）defeat in order to get a good position for your team the next time it gets the ball. The more exciting choice, however, is to try a fourth and final time to get the remaining yards needed.
People now are certain to shout their advice. Some will shout, “Kick the ball!” But others will encourage the team to take a chance. “Go for it!” they will shout loudly.
In the 1980s, people began using this expression in many kinds of situations to encourage someone to act bravely.
There is no guarantee (保障) that the action you “Go for it!” will succeed. But that is the chance you take when you decide to go for it. You put your fears behind. You choose courage over safety. You hold your breath and go for it.
1.What does “Go for it!” mean?
A. You should go straight on.
B. You should take a chance and be brave.
C. You should go to school and ask teachers for help.
D. You should be very careful.

It is impossible without travelling in modern life. The fastest way of travelling is by plane. With a modern plane you can travel in one day to place which it took a month or more time to get a hundred years ago.
Travelling by train is slower than plane, but it has its advantages. You can see the country you are travelling through. Modern trains have comfortable seats and dining-cars. They make even the longest journey enjoyable.
Some people prefer to travel by sea when possible. There are large ships and river boats. You can visit many other countries and different places. Travelling by sea is a very pleasant way to spend a holiday.
Many people like to travel by car. You can make your own timetable. You can travel three or four hundred miles or only fifty or one hundred miles a day. You can stop wherever you wish, where there is something interesting to see, at a good restaurant where you can enjoy a good meal, or at a hotel to spend the night. That is why travelling by car is popular for trips, while people usually take a train or plane when they are travelling on business.

pollution is still the most serious, it’s bad for things in the world.
Many countries don’t let people burn for air in the houses and factories in the city. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution. It’s caused by heavy traffic. People say it’s to ride bikes. When you are riding, there is no pollution. But even in developed countries, most people don’t go to work by bike. It’s not because bikes are expensive or people are tired if they ride to work. It’s because the number of cars on the roads becomes larger. So more people their bikes and go to work by car, then things are getting worse and worse. We should have special roads only for bikes and make it difficult and expensive for divers to take their cars into the city that they will go back to use their bikes.
