Dear Dr Pat,

My daughter began to go to dance competitions about two years ago. In the beginning, she had no problem at all and faced every competition calmly. But now she has started getting a terrible headache before and during a competition. However, she still goes through with (完成)the competitions.

I worry about my daughter and I am even thinking about asking her not to dance any more. She loves it, though, and asks me to let her go. We keep on encouraging her. What else can you suggest?

Steven White

Dear Steven White,

I’m sure your encouragement(鼓励) helps your daughter. And there are two other ways to help her.

1.Hear what she is saying to herself before a competition. She may not be aware of (意识到) what she is saying, but it might be things like : “I will fail.” or “ I am not good at this.”

Let her practice saying things like “I can win.” or “I am pretty good at this.”

2.Teach her some simple relaxation exercises. Try using deep breathing to calm down. Breathe in deeply and then breathe out slowly.

Let her practice positive self-talk and do relaxation exercises, then she would be ok!

Giving a Hand

Jaime, a new immigrant（移民）of the USA, was going to watch his daughter's first show in a school play. His daughter, Carol, was five years old. She was a student at the local public school. Carol did not have a very big role in the school play. She was just playing a rain cloud in a play about the drought in California. Carol had just one line. Her line was, "I am sad enough to cry about how dry the state is."

Jaime and his wife made sure to arrive early so that they could get a good seat to watch the show. They found seats in the front row. Before the show began, the schoolmaster made an introductory speech. The speech was about how hard the students and teachers worked together to make the play possible. At the end of the speech, the schoolmaster said, "Let's give the school staff a hand".

Jaime, whose English was not very good, stood up when the schoolmaster said this. He knew that when people said "to give someone a hand" they meant they needed help. Jaime always wanted to help, especially at his daughter's school. Jaime thought maybe they needed help backstage.

Jaime's wife put her arm in front of her husband. "Where are you going?" she asked in a low voice. "They need a hand," Jaime replied. His wife explained that "to give someone a hand" could also mean to applaud（鼓掌）someone. When you applaud someone you clap your hands（拍手）after their performance. You are not supposed to stand up and try to help others. "They don't need help. They just want us to clap," Jaime's wife explained. Jaime felt a little embarrassed. He sat back down and began clapping along with the rest of the audience.

Jaime thought to himself that someone needed to give the English language a hand. How could one phrase mean two different things? He meant the English language needed help.

1.Why did Jaime and his wife arrive at the play early?

A.To talk to other parents. B.To wish their daughter good luck.

C.To get good seats to watch the show. D.To listen to the speech of the schoolmaster.

2.Jaime thought "giving someone a hand" meant __________.

A.helping someone B.clapping your hands

C.holding someone's hand D.giving your hand to someone

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A.Jaime stood up to applaud. B.Jaime is a warm-hearted man.

C.Jaime was better at English than his wife. D.Jaime's daughter played an important role in the show.
