27、ide money for fun activitiesD. open a personal bank accountBIm an 18-year-old premedical student, tall and good-looking, with two short story books and quite a number of essays my credit. Why am I singing such praises of myself? Just to explain that he attainment of self-pride comes from a great dea
28、l of self-love, and to attain it, one must first learn to accept oneself as one is. That was where my struggle began.Born and raised in Africa，I had always taken my African origin as burden. My self-dislike was further fueled when my family had to relocate to Norway, where I attended a high school.
29、Compared to all the white girls around me, with their golden hair and delicate lips, I ,a black girl, had curly hair and full, red lips. My nose often had a thin sheet of sweat on it, whatever the weather was. I just wanted to bury myself in my shell crying “Im so different!”What also contributed to
30、 my self-dislike was my occasional stuttering (口吃), which had weakened my self-confidence. It always stood between me and any fine opportunity. Id taken it as an excuse to avoid any public speaking sessions, and unknowingly let it rule over me.Fortunately, as I grew older, there came a turning point
31、. One day a white girl caught my eye on the school bus when she suddenly turned back. To my astonishment, she had a thin sheet of sweat on her nose too, and it was in November! “Wow,” I whispered to myself, “this isnt a genetic(遗传的) disorder after all. Its perfectly normal.” Days later, my life took
32、 an-other twist(转折). Searching the internet for stuttering cures, I accidentally learned that such famous people as Isaac Newton and Winston Churchill also stuttered. I was greatly relieved and then an idea suddenly hit meif Im smart, I shouldnt allow my stuttering to stand between me and my success
33、.Another boost to my self-confidence came days later as I was watching the news about Oprah Winfrey, the famous talk-show host and writershes black too! Whenever I think of her story and my former dislike of my color, Im practically filled with shame.Today, Ive grown to accept what I am with pride;

38、-love is key to the attainment of self-pride.CIs it true that our brain alone is responsible for human cognition(认知)? What about our body? Is it possible for thought and behavior to originate from somewhere other than our brain? Psychologists who study Embodied Cognition(EC) ask similar questions. T
39、he EC theory suggests our body is also responsible for thinking or problem-solving. More precisely, the mind shapes the body and the body shapes the mind in equal measure.If you think about it for a moment, it makes total sense. When you smell something good or hear amusing sounds, certain emotions
40、are awakened. Think about how newborns use their senses to understand the world around them. They dont have emotions so much as needsthey dont feel sad, theyre just hungry and need food. Even unborn babies can feel their mothers heartbeats and this has a calming effect. In the real world，they cry wh
41、en theyre cold and then get hugged. That way, they start to associate being warm with being loved.Understandably, theorists have been arguing for years and still disagree on whether the brain is the nerve centre that operates the rest of the body. Older Western philosophers and mainstream language r
42、esearchers believe this is fact, while EC theory that the brain and body are working together as an organic supercomputer, processing everything and forming your reactions.Further studies have backed up the mind-body interaction. In one experiment, test subjects(实验对象) were asked to judge people afte
43、r being handed a hot or a cold drink. They all made warm evaluations when their fingertips perceived warmth rather than coolness. And it works the other way too; in another study, subjects fingertip temperatures were measured after being“included” in or “rejected” from a group task. Those who were i
44、ncluded felt physically warmer.For further proof, we can look at the metaphors(比喻说法) that we use without even thinking. A kind and sympathetic person is frequently referred to as one with a soft heart and someone who is very strong and calm in difficult situations is often described as solid as a ro
45、ck. And this kind of metaphorical use is common across languages.Now that you have the knowledge of mind-body interaction, why not use it? If youre having a bad day,a warm cup of tea will give you a flash of pleasure. If you know youre physically cold, warm up before making any interpersonal decisio
