After graduating from a high school in Helena， Arkansas， I did go．

I went to Colby College in Maine． I had visited the school ahead of time， so I knew what I was getting myself into． I knew about the difference in weather． I understood the difference in social atmosphere． But I wanted to stretch myself and get out of my comfort zone． And you know what？ I absolutely loved my time there． But one thing took me by surprise ﹣ the lack of countryside representation． Most of the other students at Colby were from big cities： New York， Boston， Los Angeles， San Francisco…And when I had conversations with these students ﹣ in or outside of class ﹣ we almost always focused on topics facing large American cities． In my education classes， it was always \\．

It was like small town America didn't exist．

And this urban interest doesn't just happen in college． I went to an education conference a couple of years ago， and a professor ﹣ someone who had been at the forefront of educational reform ﹣ was there to deliver a keynote． I was chosen to be part of a small group that got to meet with him． So there we were， five or six of us siting in a room， and

I asked him， \？\man was speechless．

I'll never forget that moment． It speaks to a larger truth． Towns like mine are forgotten． This trend of exporting talent and resources to our big cities ﹣ this mindset of leaving small towns and never coming back ﹣ I don't want to add to that movement． I want to reverse that movement．

Now it's my turn to help people younger than me． And you know what？ I'm a sixth grade teacher in Helena now．

more careful and our bodies prepared to flee danger． But feeling anxious because you heard a noise on a dark street isn't the same thing as having an anxiety disorder． \look for in the clinic is whether anxiety is interfering（妨碍）with a person's day﹣to﹣day life， or causing them a lot of unhappiness，\．

To clinical psychologists like Grey， \（不恰当的）beliefs\are typical in anxiety disorders and are often used to determine the type of anxiety someone has． In social anxiety disorder， the most common anxiety disorder， you might believe that your face turning red will result in people laughing at you． People with this type of disorder experience constant and great fear before， during and after social events．

If you have panic disorder， you might assume that you are having a heart attack if your heart starts to race． The physical symptoms of anxiety ﹣ a pounding heart， difficulty breathing， feeling dizzy ﹣ will then come on in a rush． Everyone can experience such panic attacks from time to time， but in panic disorder the attacks are regular and become a source of anxiety themselves．

Other maladaptive beliefs are less specific． Generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by continuous worries about a range of different events or activities， for at least six months． If you have this condition， the belief driving your anxiety could， for example， be the feeling it's your job to take care of other people， or that you have responsibilities that you must meet at all cost． To decide who to refer for further treatment， doctors might use a tool called the GAD7test．

14．（8分）It's at this time of the year that marathon recovery， not marathon training， starts to take center stage．

Research indicates that the muscle damage from running a marathon can last up to two weeks． The research also indicates that muscle soreness（肌肉酸痛）is not a good indicator of muscular healing． In other words， just because you aren't sore anymore doesn't mean that you are fully healed． This is the danger for marathon runners： post﹣marathon muscular soreness fades after a few days but minor damage within the muscle cells remains． If you return to full training too soon ﹣ running more and faster than the tissues are ready for ﹣ you risk delaying full recovery and the chance to get ready for your next goal．

The solution， it appears， is to recognize（and accept）that the muscles will take a while to heal and to be prepared to take it easy for the first couple of weeks （even longer if you're particularly sore after your marathon）． While the research isn't very promising when it comes to things to do to reduce soreness and aid healing， a couple of concepts appear to help． First， providing gentle blood flow to the area helps bring healing nutrients into the muscles and also helps to remove waste products and damaged tissue． Walking and gentle massage（按摩）can help， particularly in the first few days after a marathon． Once muscle soreness has significantly reduced（usually two to four days after the race）， light jogging can commence． Just be mindful to run very slowly．

No runner wants to get super fit and then lose that during the recovery process． But since
