2.Every year as a kid at Girl Scut summer camp, the night I lked frward t mst was the clsing campfire, a few hurs f silliness that marked
ur final evening tgether. All week, my rmmates and I had kept perfecting ur skit (滑稽短剧) perfrmance, editing lines and practicing scenes.
Skits and sngs are deeply rted in the camp experience. The days might be all abut sprts r nature, but nighttime entertainment is a kid’s
dream. Similar t a talent shw, sme perfrmances are educatinal but mstly, they just make yu laugh. Talent is nt imprtant, and audience
engagement (参与) thrugh call and respnse is essential.
Away frm phnes and peers back hme, scial nrms (规范) disappear and space fr self-explratin frms. Shy kids cme ut f their shells, and
cl kids let their guard dwn. They get t pen up this dr t a part f themselves that they wuldn’t have felt safe t shw at schl r at hme.
It’s been a decade since my last perfrmance as a camp cunselr (顾问), and I never thught f skits frm a skill-building aspect. But I nw realize
this rich camp traditin left a great impressin n me. Thrugh camp skits, I develped my sense f humr, built cnfidence in frnt f a crwd and
learned hw t accept thers fr their strangeness.
Maybe we can make ur schls r cmmunities mre like summer camps by bringing the silliness f skits int ur families and classrms t
recnnect with urselves and each ther. The next time yu’re sitting arund a campfire with friends and family, give it a try. Let yur guard dwn,

4.Smetimes ur friends’ behavir can ffend (冒犯) us; smetimes we can see changes they need t make — but hw d we tell them?

【小题
1】
recgnize issues.
【小题2】
Psychlgist Andrea Bnir suggests framing prblems with “I”. Saying “I feel hurt that yu spend less time with
me” is less accusatry (谴责的) than “Yu never spend time with me!” and is fcused mre clearly n the impact.
【小题3】
Becming tense might lead yu t react badly and cause an argument. Bnir recmmends that yu shuld acknwledge the
cnversatin culd make yu anxius. If yu think abut this yurself, it can help yu fcus n psitive results. If yu admit yur anxiety t yur friend,
yu will shw a mre human side. Anther psychlgist, Laura Brennan, pints ut hw it’s imprtant that we let g f ur eg (自我) and dn’t fcus
n the need t be prved right. This can help reduce tensin.

harder than yu initially thught.

D．This will help yu t set realistic gals fr what yu can achieve.

After getting up late n a sleepy Sunday, I saw my dad at the kitchen table reading the Sunday editin f the lcal newspaper. I made a sandwich
