  Assertiveness is the ability to confidently express your opinions, feelings, attitudes, and rights, in a way that doesn't infringe(侵犯)the rights of others.

  Many of us are taught that it is not nice to consider our own needs above those of others.If someone says or does something that we don't like, we should just be quiet and try to stay away from that person in the future.

  Why is Assertiveness important?

  If you don't know how to be assertive, you might experience:

  ·Depression-Anger, a sense of being helpless, hopeless, or of having no control over your life.

  ·Resentment-Anger at others for taking advantage of you.

  ·Frustration-Why did I allow that to happen?

  Most people find it easier to be assertive in some situations than in others.This makes perfect sense.It's a lot easier to hold your ground with a stranger than with someone you love.But the more important the relationship is to you, the more important it is to be assertive.Assertive behavior leads to increased respect from others!

  But before you decide to act assertively, you have to decide if you can live with the results.Although assertive behavior usually will result in a positive response(積極的回應(yīng)),some people might react differently.

  How to be effectively(有效地)assertive:

  ·Use "I" statements.Keep the focus on the problem you're having."I'd like to be able to tell my stories without interruption." instead of "You're always interrupting my stories! "

  ·Use facts, not opinions."Did you know that shirt has a hole? " instead of "You're not going out looking like THAT, are you? "

  ·Express ownership of your thoughts, feelings, and opinions."I get angry when he breaks his promises." instead of "He makes me angry."

  ·Make clear and direct requirements.Don't invite the person to say no."Will you please? " instead of 'Would you mind…? " or "Why don't you…? "

  ·Keep repeating your point.Use a low level and pleasant voice.Don't try to explain yourself.

     In many western schools, sports day is a big event. Children take part in competitive (競(jìng)爭(zhēng)性的)
sports, trying to break school records and take the first place.

end of the school year. They are also called field days.
     Primary school sports days are fun. They usually have activities such as the egg and the spoon race
and the sack race. Other events include the skipping race (跳繩) and the three-legged race. In middle
and high schools, sports days include many of the common track and field events (田徑項(xiàng)目).  They
are more serious and competitive than primary school ones.
     Students' parents and other relatives also come to the  school on sports days. They watch children
play. Many schools in the West have "mothers and fathers" races for parents to take part in!
     Although sports days are exciting, they also have some problems. According to some reports in the
USA, sports days have become too competitive to be good for students. Some parents put too much
pressure(壓力) on the children. Some schools don't have "mothers and fathers" races any more as there
is much fighting and cheating.
