In recent times, the sales of self-help books have soared in popularity. Here are our picks of the
best, and most highly rated self-help books to help tackle that new year anxiety.
Atomic Habits by James Clear
Nowadays people spend so much time planning, journaling, and writing in our diaries, rather
than taking action towards actually achieving our goals. This book is a step-by-step guide to fixing
up your routine. It digs into the psychology behind habits - how to form good ones and break the
bad ones. If you're a victim of procrastination (拖延症), this may be the push you need.
How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie
This book is all about improving the relationships you have with others in your life, making
you a better listener, and overall a better friend. With simple tips such as including the person 's
name in conversation and making sure you're genuinely interested in what they're saying, you
can ensure they will remember you. The core idea is that you can change other people's behaviour
by changing your own, therefore building stronger relationships.
Untamed-Stop Pleasing, Start Living by Glennon Doyle
Part autobiographical and part self-help, it's the perfect book to kickstart your year and start
living for yourself. Although this book could be enjoyed by anyone, the prime audience is women,
as Doyle talks a lot about doubts during motherhood, and the overwhelming need women feel to put
everyone before themselves. Doyle shows us our lives in a new light that without even realising it,
we may be working hard to please everyone around us, forgetting the most important person- our-
selves.
The 4-Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferriss
“Escape the 9-5, live anywhere and join the new rich”. This best seller proposes the idea that
you don't need to wait for retirement and delay your life plan. Instead, you can trade a long career
for short work bursts and frequent “mini-retirements”. Ferris says that people don't want to be mil-
lionaires. They want to experience what they think only millionaires can buy.
21. What can we learn from Atomic Habits?
A. How to keep a diary.
B. How to learn psychology.
C. How to arrange your routine.
D. How to satisfy your needs.
22. Which book may attract housewives most?
A. Atomic Habits.
B. Untamed-Stop Pleasing, Start Living.
C. The 4-Hour Work Week.
D. How to Win Friends and Influence People.
23. Which of the following may Timothy Ferriss agree with?
A. No pains, no gains.
B. Idle young, needy old.
C. Live in the moment.
D. Fortune favors the bold.
B
“Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits, and necessary to sustain life.
But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. ” This is dedicated to my first-
year self four years ago, who was addicted to getting good grades, and failed to seek the happiness
found in everything else that college has to offer.
Like some people, I grew up with a family that valued academics over all else, who gave you a
little extra love when you were doing great in your classes, and took it away when you didn't. As a
result, my self-worth became tied to my academic success. As an international student, I sometimes
felt our parents didn't quite understand the heavy academic weight.
There is a difference between trying to always better yourself for yourself, and simply putting
too much on your plate until you burn out from attempting to live up to certain expectations. We
should all strive to do the former, but unfortunately our mindsets have been always wired to follow
the latter.
I used to believe school killed the creative spirit inside all of us, but as I get older and further
into my academic career, I find that it is we who make the choice to kill that creative spirit. I am
definitely not saying that you should throw your GPA(绩点) out of the window and go painting
all day. However, we should all try to develop a long-sighted perspective on how we want to shape
our lives. Take some classes on topics that you're genuinely interested in learning about, not just
passing. Join clubs or work on projects that resonate (共鸣) with you and push you beyond your
boundaries. And most of all, accept the fact that failure and loss are sometimes inevitable in life.
I promise you, when you look back at these four years, you will not remember the good grades
or the bad grades, but you will hold in your memory the connections you made with people, the
things that inspired you to create and the times you learned something special. And so I ask you
now, what do you want to get out of college?
24. Who is the author of the passage?
A. A professor.
B. A freshman.
C. A parent.
