2.How do our emotions affect our decision-making？In life, we make many decisions,and maybe they are not all correct sometimes. For example, one day,i am so sad that i drink a lot of wine, but I don't like to drink and more importantly, I am allergic to alcohol.So i regret to do that another day.And how this phenomenon come about? Maybe because emotions are closely connected with our decision-making procedure. As far as I’m concerned, emotions will have impact on the perspective we take. When we are overwhelmed by emotions, no matter too happy, too sad or too angry, emotions will interfere with the way we look at a thing and even distort the facts.当我们被情绪,不管太幸福,太伤心或生气,情绪会干扰我们看一件事,甚至歪曲事实That’s because we are in an irrational（非理性的）state of mind so we can’t make an objective judgment. The solutions and options we have are also limited because of such prejudice （偏见）. However, such situation happen so frequently that we can’t change it immediately. We should try to be calm and keep a peaceful mind when making decisions.3.How do music and culture influence each other?I think different cultures nature different kinds of music. The music reflects the habits, the way people think and the tradition of a country or a nation. For instance, R&B and Hiphop shows African-American people’s desire for freedom and independence and they’d like to put some criticism of the society in the music to show their standpoint. Country music from the south of the US is quite different from R&B and Hiphop. It is more relaxing and softer to hear and it is more popular because it always tells a story which depicts(描述) living scenes in the south. And country music often sings about love. So music mirrors what people are concerned about from different cultures.There are many kinds of culture, including music culture, reading culture, social culture and so on. Music culture is part of the culture. And culture is invisible, only through the music, it can be reflected. The meaning is that without music, we also cannot realize culture.4.what do our favorite characters say about us?In my life,there are many people who impress me deeply by their action, but now who i want to talk about is a NBA star.I like playing basketball and make many great friends through it.And i think many people know him,who is Kobe Bryant.He is the hero in my mind.There are thousands of reasons to love Kobe, but beyond all these reasons is his spirit of nev er giving up. Life is full of difficulties.There are two kinds of attitudes toward the bars(障碍) .Most of people will choice to avoid the bars and only a few of them will go straight towards t he difficulty. Kobe is one of the small parts. As we know, the professional players will always be inj ured in competitions. Some of them will rest and not attend the later competition .On the contrar y, Kobe will always takes part in the competition with his broken finger , broken knee and his brok en back and never complain a word. He can do that on account of having a wining heart. Someti mes he has bad performance, and soon the media will criticize him .When facing that, Kobe usuall y keeps silent and uses his efforts and best performance to fight against the criticism. In that way, he stands the loneliness and all the bars in his life.All in all, he is really a great man, a true hero and i respect him! In my study,there are many difficulties and i will face them bravely and beat them.that is all, thank you!5.Why do we create stereotype（固有想法）?People often think stereotype is bad and outdated and it limits a lot of things. But why we create it? I think it indeed has some merits(优点). First, some good conventional conceptions （传统观念）and traditions need to be reserved（保留）and be passed on to generations to generations. It can regulate（调节）people’s standard of morality and behavior. Second, a good stereotype is a good model for people to imitate（模仿）and learn from, which can help to maintain the stability of a society.Maybe there are some traditional culture which is not suitable for the present life, but we can not completely deny it. And we can take the essence(精华), and remove the bad place. Chinese culture has a long history, such as the Wuqiao acrobatics（吴桥杂技）, Peking Opera, etc. These cultures should be carried forward. The thought of “women are inferior to men” is not suitable for modern society, we can abandon it.That’s all, thank you!6.Why is independent study important?Cultivating a habit of independent study is important for our lifelong development. Independent study can help us to foster an ability of critical thinking and problem-solving. We need to think independently when study alone and when encountering(遇到) problems, we need to solve it by our own. Perhaps, we need to consult many books and materials or do research on line. When we manage to solve a problem, we will feel satisfied with ourselves and thus raising our self-esteem（自尊）.And, usually, we look to independent study when we have an interest in a special topic that’s not offered at class. Everyone know that “Interest is the best teacher”. So we will do better than others on this aspects.That is mean:if you have the ability of independent study ,you will be succeed in the future.。
