Nowadays, more and more senior three students have mental health problems and it's hard for them to get rid of them. Why?

   Now a new study has showed a key trick in getting the best deal - asking for a range of pay, rather than a single figure.

The research contradicts（与……抵触）traditional wisdom that argues giving a range will automatically cause employers to focus on the lower end of the offer. For instance, if you want  $90,000 and you suggest a range between $90,000 and $110,000, the study finds employers are more likely to make a higher offer.

But simply asking for $110,000 in the first place increases the chances of the deal falling apart, as it is a sign that the employee is not open to negotiation（协商）.

The team made the discovery after running a series of experiments involving Amazon Mechanical Turk workers and business school students.

Respondents were asked not only what they thought their negotiation partner's lowest acceptable offer could be, but also questions designed to show how they viewed their partner.

One type of offer, called a “bracketing” range,places the figures on either side of the desired salary. For instance, if you want $90,000, you'd ask for a range of between  $80,000 and $100,000. This causes employers to offer the lower end of the scale,but, unlike single figure offers, the deals rarely fall apart as the negotiator is often viewed favourably. “If your goal is to get along with someone without losing money, the‘bracketing' range offers may be a good move,”Dr Ames told the Wall Street Journal.

The“backdown”range offer, meanwhile, uses the target salary as the high figure in the range. For $90 ,000, an employer would ask for a range between $70,000 to $90,000. These range offers , predicta-bly, give the worst results in terms of pay.

However, Dr Ames warns against setting the range too high and says the most successful range is usually within 20 per cent of the target offer.

   Nowadays with the development of the economy, our life is becoming easier and easier in many ways. We can drive a car to travel to and from work. We can save a lot of time, shopping online instead of going to stores. Besides, the elevator is widely used in our daily life. 【小题1】 The elevator safety troubles us from time to time. Here are several ways for you to help you use the elevator safely.

【小题2】

Before stepping on the elevator, you should check your and your children's clothing for the loose parts, such as shoelaces（鞋带）and gloves, which can be trapped in the moving parts.

Mind your position.

【小题3】 Tell your children not to lean on the handrail（扶手）, which can slow down the elevator and may make other people lose their balance. You should stand on the right instead of on the left, which is convenient for some people who are anxious to go downwards or upwards.

Locate the emergency stop button.

【小题4】 The button may be near the bottom, but sometimes alongside the stairs. If the elevator breaks down, it is helpful for you to stop the elevator.【小题5】

   Proper pressure can be a good thing: It can push you toward accomplishing tasks. 【小题1】. But sometimes the stress can be too much. Psychologist Travis explains that there is a best level of stress. With less than that, you may lack interest or motivation. 【小题2】 If you can reduce the stress and stay calm, you’ll have a better chance of succeeding.

Breathe out

Psychotherapist Tom suggests an effective yet simple relaxation technique: Slowly expel (排出) all the air from your lungs until there is nothing left and then count to 3 before taking the next breath normally. 【小题3】. The act of letting go of all the air lowers your shoulders and relaxes your muscles. When you are physically more relaxed, you will function better under pressure.

Keep healthy daily habits

Ensure that you are eating healthy foods. 【小题4】. Proper diet and rest may be all you need to reset your biological stress reactions to more manageable levels. In addition, regular exercise has been shown to reduce stress.

【小题5】

Regardless of how much pressure the other person is applying, or how much stress you feel, avoid reacting before you have had a chance to calmly consider what you think about the issue. Leave the room and go for a walk, make some coffee or sit alone in a quiet spot to allow yourself to decide what is the best for you.

   Everyone can benefit from good communication（交流）.【小题1】. Of course，we know that isn’t true，but this shouldn’t stop you improving your communication skills. Here are a few tips to help you become a better communicator.

【小题2】

Verbal（口头的）language is only one part of the communication—body language is another. If you once wanted to know how to tell if someone is lying，body language is the answer. Your body language tells other people what you aren’t verbally saying，such as if you are anxious，confident，confused，angry or in any other type of emotion or state of mind. If you become great at reading body language，it will help you become a better communicator.

Listen to others

Before you begin to speak，take a minute to see if anyone else has something to say.【小题3】 .Listening to others has many benefits，such as allowing you to learn new things or get the information that you may later need.

Think before you speak

Your parents probably have told you this since you were a child，but many people still do not take a moment to think about the words they are about to say.【小题4】. There is a time and place for all words and tones of voice.

【小题5】. You will have to practice your communication skills before you can become an excellent communicator.
