Directions: Let another person read the paragraph below. After listening to the text,
answer the questions that follow.
Anger is often viewed as harmful. It does not only affect the person feeling this anger but those
around him or her. As these feelings get stronger, changes occur in our body. Our faces turn red and
carry a frown. Our teeth are clenched and our hands are closed tight. Our breathing becomes heavy and
this makes our heart beat faster. Our shoulder and neck muscles become stiff and our blood pressure
begins to rise. All these things happen because our body is preparing for something. It is preparing for
action. However, this action does not have to be harmful. People are often guilty about feeling angry. But,
anger can be viewed positively. Feelings of anger tell you that something is not right and that something
needs to change. The challenge lies in making sure that actions resulting from anger will help rather than
harm. Expressing our feelings can help others understand the source of our anger rather than fear its
consequences.
