Do you compare yourself to other people? Perhaps your best friend received something you really wanted for Christmas, or you're not allowed to go to a concert but your brother or sister is. Even though comparisons are normal and can sometimes be helpful, focusing on your own progress is important for your happiness.

Why does focusing on me matter? "We prefer to compare ourselves to others who are doing better or not as well as ourselves," says psychologist Nicola Abbott. "But comparing your improvements to your past self (where you started) and your future self (where you'd like to get to) can be more positive (积极乐观的)." This can make you feel proud of what you've achieved and excited about what you might do. Child psychologist Laverne Antrobus agrees and says that focusing on your own goals is more important than always trying to come out on top.

Do comparisons make you unhappy? Comparing yourself to those around you is natural and weoften do it without realizing. It can help us to find our progress and to form friendships with new people who have similar interests. However, it's important to remember that nobody is perfect, especiallyonline and on social media. Taking note of how the comparison is making you feel matters, too.

If you begin to feel quite low, Abbot suggests choosing a different role model or focusing on what you're good at. Antrobus agrees. She says that asking yourself questions like "What am I good at?" "_______▲______." and "What improvements can I notice?" can help to improve your self-esteem (how positive you feel about yourself).

"Jealousy (嫉妒) is an ordinary feeling," says Antrobus, "but focusing on improving your own performance can help you feel just as successful. Besides, learning to celebrate your friend's progress can help not only to improve your friend's feeling but can also help you feel good. It will encourage you to build each other up.

37. The underlined phrase "focusing on "means _____________.

A. taking part in         B.paying attention to

C. making use of        D. playing a role in

38. According to Paragraph 2, Nicola Abbott agrees that it's better to compare _____________.

A. yourselves to others who are doing better

B. yourselves to others who are doing worse

C. your progress to your past self and future self

D. your failures with your past self and future self

39. Which of the following can be put into "______▲______"?

A. Who am I?                  B. How can I help you?

C. Where do I come from?       D. What do I feel proud of?

40. The purpose of the last paragraph is to suggest _____________.

A. getting on well with those around you

B. not minding the feeling of being jealous

C. trying to do better than those around you

D. feeling pleased about your friends' progress
