書面表達（共兩節(jié)， 32 分）

• 8．第一節(jié) 閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)題目要求用英文回答問題。請在答題卡指定區(qū)域作答。
  How to Stop Overthinking We all have times when we worry，whether it's about work，health，family，relationships or a host of other reasons.But is there a point when you may think and worry too much？
      Overthinking is an unhealthy habit that typically causes more stress by focusing on the negative instead of coming up with logical solutions.For example，we may start worrying about a specific situation at work，which leads to worrying about money or losing jobs.
      But why do we tend to overthink？This is often due to cognitive errors，which are basically errors in logical thinking，such as all-or-nothing thinking and over generalisation.Although overthinking is hard to break，Natacha Duke，a registered psychotherapist，outlines strateg 比 S that can help.
      "Healthy distraction can be useful，" says Duke.Activities like reading and taking a walk can help keep our stress levels down.They can reduce our baseline level of anxiety and make us less likely to overthink.
      Duke adds， "Keeping a daily journal can help us actively manage stress before our feelings expand out of control." As we practise journaling our emotions and thoughts，it becomes easier to identify when we're starting to worry.Stopping worrying early will ultimately help us feel better and stay focused on what matters most to us.
      Some people constantly think about questions like "What if I lose my job？" or "What if I get sick？" While having these thoughts is normal，it becomes a problem when we focus only on the worst-case situation. "For every 'what if' worry，change this to an 'if then' statement where you come up with ideas to deal with the worry or the worst-case situation，" says Duke. "Focus on having a concrete plan in place."
      So，face the problems，then challenge and reframe them.Finally，we will develop effective ways to cope with overthinking.
  
  （1）What is overthinking？

  
  （2）What causes overthinking？

  
  （3）Please decide which part is false in the following statement，then underline it and explain why.
  A man can stop overthinking if he changes "what if" questions to "if then" statements，because it helps him focus on the worst-case situation.

  
  （4）Besides the suggestions mentioned in the passage，what other advice will you give to a person who is always overthinking？
