could also be dangerous?A 34-year-oldUSman recently ended up in hospital after eating a Carolina Reaperthe spiciest chili in the world.After taking just a single bite of one,the man suffered from serious headaches in the following few days,reported BBC News.In fact,reports of stomachache and headache caused by eating spicy food are not something unusual.But if chilies are harmful,why is it that human beings are the only animals to eat this vegetable?According to the website Huanqiu,about 600 million Chinese peoplealmost half of the national populationare chili eaters.So what makes people love chilies so much?The human body reacts to the burning feeling that comes from eating chilies by releasing natural chemicals that“produce a sense of happiness”,noted BBC News.And the benefits go even further than just personal enjoyment.A survey conducted by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences found that the death rate of those who eat spicy food once or twice a week is 10 percent lower than those who eat it less than once a week.The number decreased to 14 percent for those who eat spicy food six to seven times a week.And another study done by theUniversityofVermontcame to a similar conclusion.“The data encourages people to eat more spicy food to improve health and reduce death risk at an early age,”Liu Qi,a nutritionist at the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health,told BBC News.Chilies have anti-cancer quality and the ability to increase our metabolism(新陈代谢).So,dont worry if you love spicy food.It seems that chilies are actually good for usexcept for the

well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes.Stress canbe physical,emotional,or psychological and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout.Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself.The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place.Young athletes can,for example,learn how to cooperate with others,make friends,and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives.Coaches and parents should be aware,at all times,that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children.Youngsters may take their parents and coaches criticisms to heart and find faults in themselves.Coaches and parents should also pay attention that youth sport participation does not become work for children.The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons.In todays youth sport setting young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport.Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find faults with youngsters performances.Positive support should be provided regardless of the outcome.Research indicates that positive support motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism.Again,criticism can create high levels of stress,which can lead to burnout.8.An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athletes is_.A.to make sport less competitive B.to increase their sense of success C.to reduce their mental stress D.to make sport more challenging 9.According to the passage,sport is positive for young people in that_.A.it can help them learn more about society B.it enables them to find faults in themselves C.it can provide them with valuable experiences D.it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves 10.Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletes_.A.believing that criticism does good to their early development B.without realizing criticism may destroy their selfconfidence C.in order to make them remember lifes lessons D.so as to put more pressure on them 11.According to the passage parents and coaches should_.A.pay more attention to letting children enjoy sport B.help children to win every game C.train children to cope with stress D.enable children to understand the positive aspect of sport D Being a teacher is a rewarding career when it comes to changing lives,but its obviously one that comes with plenty of stresses and difficulties too.Seeking help for a child who is so obviously in need isnt easy.Often,you feel ignored by the government.You feel upset that there isnt anything you could personally do to help a needy and sensitive member of your class.Thats exactly how Chelsea Haley,aged 24 at the time,felt when she met fourth-grade student Jerome Robinson while working for Teach forAmericainLouisianafor the first time.The pair didnt get off to the best start,with Jerome,the“problem child”,almost drivingChelseafrom teaching.But

needed more than just academic support.By 2016,a year after meeting him,Chelsea had adopted(收养)Jerome and his brother Jace.Adopting a child doesnt come cheap,andChelseaspent all the money in her bank to see the process through.In her first few years of raising the boys,she lived on credit cards and postponed her student loan.AsChelsealived with her two adopted sons,she worked hard to repay her debts.She took on extra tutoring jobs outside of school hours,moved in with her parents,and even delivered groceries for cash.Along the way,she was learning how to be the best mom to Jerome and
