Everyone worries. Worry is not all bad. But some kids worry too much. If that sounds like you, you can take these three steps.
Try to find out what you're worried about.
The worst thing is to do nothing. We should know that worries are normal in life, so don’t run away from them, try to solve them. If you can’t find out what worries you, you can talk to your parents, teachers or another person you trust to get some help.
▲
There is almost always something you can do to help you feel less worried. For example, Grades at school are often a top worry for kids. If that’s your worry, ask yourself these questions:
Why are grades important What do they mean to me
How do I prepare for class Do I review (复习) even when there isn’t a test the next day
Do I have a good place to do my homework
Do I try different ways of studying, such as reading aloud ( 大声地), using computers, and working with a study friend
4
You can also write down all the actions (行动) you could take. Once you have a list of possible actions, you can choose the one you think is the best for yourself.
Ask for help.
Worry can make you feel lonely (孤独的). When you’re worried, it can help to find someone to talk to. Talking to someone will help a lot, he or she will think about ways to help you. And it will make you feel better. As an old saying goes, sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. So you are halfway to solving a problem just by asking for help.

The human population (人口) on Earth grows larger each year. 73 Because of climate change (气候变化), growing more food is becoming even more difficult.
When farmers tried to grow more food in the past, they would use farming methods that weren’t always healthy for the environment. 74 They spent several years talking to farmers. They wanted to see what problems farmers were having and how these problems could be solved. 75 These special robots move around on farms and get information about crops (庄稼). They can take pictures of plants, track (追踪) each plant’s growth and measure (测量) its size.
In the past, though farmers did have information about the weather and the earth, they couldn’t track each plant. 76
By getting information about plants, the robots can help farmers make predictions about how their plants will grow. 77 For example, if the robots find out which plants get sick, farmers can quickly throw them away before they are about to influence (影响) nearby plants. With the help of these robots, farmers can take better care of the plants in need.
