A Special Delivery
Ben and Sally lived in California with their two daughters. Ben liked travelling. One summer, he went to Africa on a trip, but Sally stayed home with the girls. Ben and his friends owned a company. People at the company liked to play jokes on each other. One day, Ben's friends wanted to play a joke on Ben and Sally. So they sent a letter to Sally. The letter said,

Dear Sally,
I'm having a great time here in Africa. I'm sending a special gift to you. I hope you like it. Please take good care of it until I get home.
Love to you and the kids,
Ben

On the same day, Sally also got a phone call. The caller told her that a delivery was coming. At one o'clock, a truck stopped in front of Sally's house. The truck driver gave Sally a rope. An animal was tiedto the rope. It was a baby elephant! The elephant ran into Sally's yard, and it began eating grass.
Then the driver drove away. Sally stood there and held the rope to the elephant. She asked herself, "What can I feed an elephant with? Bananas?"
After a while, a policeman came. He said, "It's illegal (非法的) to have wild animals here." Then the policeman gave Sally a ticket.
Ben's friends were hiding in the backyard and laughing. They had planned everything perfectly. They had rented (租借) the elephant from a zoo and asked the policeman to write the ticket! Ben's friends also made a film of everything. They wanted Ben to watch the video.

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解，完成下列各題。
If you're feeling tired and stressed because you have too much going on, like lots of after-school activities, you might feel better if you drop something, even if it's just for a term or so. Sometimes lots of activities — even if they're all fun — can make you feel stressed by keeping you busy all the time. On the other hand, if problems at home are troubling you, in fact some after-school activities may help you relax and feel better.
There are also relaxation exercises that you can use to get rid of stress. The easiest one to do is to breathe in slowly and deeply through your nose, and then exhale slowly through your mouth. Do this two to four times.
You can do exercises like these anytime, without anyone noticing. You can even do breathing exercises in class if you're nervous before a test.
The best way to keep stress away is to have a balanced life. That means making good decisions about how to spend your time. If you're only dealing with schoolwork and have no time to play, you can get stressed. Make sure you keep your SELF in mind: Sleep, Exercise, Leisure (something fun), and Food.
If you take care of yourself and get enough sleep and food, and if you exercise and leave time for fun schoolwork, you'll probably be less stressed out!
（1）What may help you relax and feel better if you are in trouble at home?

You can get a healthy body only if your mind is free from stress.Stress can also lead to other health problems like high blood pressure, upset stomach, headaches, etc.For all these reasons, special efforts need to be taken to relax your mind.
