There was once a boy who hardly had any toys or money. But he was a very happy little boy.

What he discovered was surprising. Each time the boy did something good, a thousand tiny angels(天使)gathered around the boy's heart and started tickling(逗乐)it.

That explained the boy's happiness, but the doctor continued studying until he discovered

Everyone has worries, but what do you do with your worries? Whether your worries are big or small, you can take three steps to deal with them. ◆ Try to find out what you are worried about

Sometimes you know what you worry about. But sometimes you might not, If you can't make sure what your worries are, you will have more and more new problems in your life. So it's necessary for you to try to find out the reason first even though it's not so easy. ◆ Think of the ways to make it better

Something can be done to help you feel less worried. If you only sit there and wait, you can't solve your problems.

Grades at school are often a top worry for students. If you worry about your grades, ask yourself these questions:

◇ How do I get ready for classes? Do I revise my notes even when there isn't a test? ◇ Do I have a good way to do my homework? ◇ Have I tried different ways of studying?

If your worry is about a scuffle with your best friend, you might write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game and say sorry to him or her. If you do something like that, you can get your friend back easily and won't fight with him or her again. ◆ Ask for help

When you are worried, you can find someone to talk to. You can ask your parents, friends, or teachers for help. They will help you analyze(分析)your worries carefully. They are very glad to
