HOW TO COPE WITH THE SUNDAY
SCARIES
by Chantelle Lee
________(1) Sunday night, and you’re feeling sad and anxious about going back to work in the morning.
Say hello to the Sunday scaries
You’re not alone in your workweek dread: “They’re very, very common,” says Susanne Cooperman, a neuropsychologist and psychoanalyst at New York University Langone Huntington Medical Group. “There’s nothing wrong with a person if they feel sad that the weekend is over. It’s when it really interferes in your functioning—when you can’t focus, when you can’t sleep, when you feel yourself medicating with alcohol—then you need help.”
Here’s why people get the Sunday scaries and the best ways to combat those thoughts of doom and gloom.
__________(2) are the Sunday scaries? The Sunday scaries typically manifest in two ways: feelings of depression that the weekend is ending, feelings of anxiety about the week to come, or both. These feelings typically start on Sunday afternoon.
“It could be that you feel sad and irritable and you have difficulty concentrating and fatigue,”
Cooperman says. That collection of feelings is called anhedonia—basically a loss of enjoyment.
If you feel more dread for the work week ahead, that’s called “anticipatory anxiety,” she says.
Why people get them
The scaries strike for all kinds of reasons. They could be related to work—maybe you’re afraid of losing your job, or you’re dreading going to the office in person, or you’re simply having a hard time unplugging from work after hours, Cooperman says.
Or, she adds, it could also be that you overbooked yourself during the week and feel exhausted by the time Sunday comes around.
How to deal with the Sunday scaries
One of the best ways to deal with the Sunday scaries is to mentally plant yourself firmly in the present. One way to achieve this is to try a mediation or relaxation app, even if it’s only for 10 or 15 minutes, Cooperman says. “I think that’s probably the best out of all the tips: stay in the moment, really try to curtail that catastrophizing into the future,” she says. There are other paths away from the scaries, too: Unplug from your phone or social media, maintain a good work-life balance, do some exercise, or get some fresh air. Make sure to schedule fun activities for Sunday afternoon and evening and do things that reliably make you feel better or help you “refuel [your] batteries,” Cooperman says. Just as important is allowing yourself downtime to relax and unwind, she adds. She also recommends trying to split up errands throughout the week so you don’t feel like you wasted your entire Sunday doing them.
While the Sunday scaries are common, people should keep an eye on how they’re coping come the end of the weekend. “Use healthy, adaptive ways to self-soothe when you’re anxious and have the scaries,” Cooperman says. “A glass of wine is fine, but if it’s more than that and you need it every night, then that’s a problem.” If the scaries are so bad that it’s significantly impacting your life, Cooperman suggests talking about these feelings with a therapist or a psychologist. Some warning signs include being so anxious that it’s hard to get out of bed in the morning, having anxiety attacks, needing alcohol to calm down, not being able to focus or sleep, or failing to enjoy the weekend at all. “If you just can’t get out of that loop where you’re constantly unhappy, then I think you’re at a place where you should see a psychologist or a therapist,” Cooperman says. “Sometimes it’s hard to [deal with it] on your own. It’s good to talk to a professional.”

October 9th 1942
“Today I have nothing but dismal and depressing
news to report. Our many Jewish friends and
acquaintances are being taken away in droves.
The Gestapo is treating them very roughly and
transporting them in cattle cars to Westerbork,
the big camp in Drenthe to which they’re sending
all the Jews. Miep told us about someone who’d
managed to escape from there. It must be terrible
in Westerbork. The people get almost nothing to
eat, much less to drink, as water is available only
one hour a day, and there’s only one toilet and
sink for several thousand people. Men and
women sleep in the same room, and women and
children often have their heads shaved. Escape is
almost impossible; many people look Jewish,
and they’re branded by their shorn heads. If it’s
that bad in Holland, what must it be like in those
faraway and uncivilized places where the
Germans are sending them? We assume that most
of them are being murdered. The English radio
says they’re being gassed. Perhaps that’s the
quickest way to die. I feel terrible. Miep’s
accounts of these horrors are so heartrending…
Fine specimens of humanity, those Germans, and
to think I’m actually one of them! No, that’s not
true, Hitler took away our nationality long ago.
And besides, there are no greater enemies on
earth than the Germans and Jews.”

O texto seguinte servirá de base para responder à questão abaixo:
(1º§) POSTNATAL depression is rife among parents,
affecting more than one in 10 women within a year after
they've given birth. But many mums hesitate before
speaking out about their battles with mental health in
what supposed to be a blissful period for them.
(2º§) Ellie Polly Killah, a YouTuber and mum of two boys
aged six and two, said she'd ummed and ahhed about
sharing her own experience for two years. In a video uploaded to her channel, she gave a raw account of her
postnatal depression and the severe anxiety and
intrusive thoughts it triggered in its aftermath. "I'm not
gonna sugarcoat it, I'm just gonna say it how it is
because it's not a pretty thing to deal with, to go through
so I'm not going to try and make it so," she told viewers.
"This is my story from the beginning till now and how I
learned to live with it - I say live with it not overcome it
because I don't think you ever do," the mum went on.
She hoped the video might help anyone at the precipice
of this process.
(3º§) Ellie said she had no history of mental health
struggles when she gave birth to her first son Leo in 2017
at the age of 27. She was the first of her friends to have a
kid she recalled feeling lonely. And Ellie became aware of
her 'attachment issues' with Leo immediately after he was
born. "People love to tell you that when your baby is born
you have this immediate rush of love when you look at
them," she explained. But Ellie said that isn't the case for
everyone and it wasn't the case for her with her first child.
"Obviously I was amazed when I saw him, sort of
overwhelmed, couldn't believe he was here, but I don't
remember feeling that complete love and awe of him."
(4º§) Ellie struggled to feel bonded to Leo, but thought
there was just 'something really wrong' with her. "I would
cry every day but a lot of the time in secret," she
remembered, and the new mum said she locked herself
in her room to do so whenever someone came round to
visit. "I think I did it secretly because I was embarrassed
or ashamed, or I thought if people knew I was struggling
that they would just think I was this awful mother, or he'd
get taken away from me." "Your brain sends you an all of
these imaginary scenarios."
(5º§) In retrospect, Ellie questioned how she thought this
was normal. Her fiance Clint went back to work when Leo
was two weeks old and he'd often have to travel,
meaning that Ellie was on her own a lot. She
remembered ringing Clint and saying __ her son: "I feel
like I don't like him." She told viewers it was painful to
recall feeling that way, but it made her begin to realise
something wasn't quite right. "This was the first baby for
both of us, so we didn't really recognise post-partum
depression or know what we were really looking for.
(6º§) At eight weeks old, Ellie's bond for her baby 'came
on quite suddenly'. "I remember it hitting me like a wave,
looking at him one day and being like: there it is," Ellie
said.
Intrusive thoughts and OCD
(7º§) But the guilt of not experiencing that early
attachment lead to the mum being 'extremely anxious'
about her son. She explained: "The intense love and
responsibility that I had to this baby lead me to
constantly, constantly [think] he was going to die." Ellie
would have 'hideous, morbid, intrusive thoughts' multiple
times a day, particularly triggered when she was driving
or Leo was in the bath: "It was intense."
(8º§) She started to get panic attacks and physical side
effects from the anxiety she was experiencing, like like a
tight chest, stomach pains, nausea and headaches. "I know now that OCD basically goes hand in had with
severe anxiety," Ellie went on. At her worst, Ellie was
convinced her home would catch fire in the night and
would obsessively plan out an escape route in her head
before sleeping. She also became gripped by the fear
that she would die __ the night and leave her baby on his
own.
(9º§) Ellie asked her mum or fiance text her every
morning in case this happened.The new mum had her
wake-up call when she confessed this fear to her friends
one evening and saw the horror on their faces. She
booked a therapist appointment the next day.
What helped?
(10º§) Ellie said therapy was hugely helpful to her
recovery journey, as was medication. The mum saw
female therapist who specialised in anxiety, who taught
her techniques that Ellie said she used to this day. A
method deal with with her intrusive thoughts was to take
a deep breath when she was taken over by one, soak it
in and then weigh up the evidence it is true vs. the
evidence it isn't. "The one or two minutes it takes for you
to sum up that evidence for and against, you've
completely calmed down," Ellie said.
(11º§) Three years later Ellie said she's realised how
common her experience with postnatal depression is. "I'll
worry about my kids forever, I'll probably always get
these horrible thoughts and ideas, but I know how to deal
with them so I just get on with it. It doesn't control me at
all." She went on: "If you are in a dark place and feel like
you need help, just talk to someone." Then it's best you
get professional help, as these kinds of feelings are
"really hard to master on your own". The mum ended on
a happier note. "And if you had a bad experience and
you're nervous about your second, let me tell you it was a
completely different experience __ me second time
round.

Read the excerpt from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll, which depicts Alice’s first encounter with the Mouse:
“‘Mine is a long and a sad tale!’ said the Mouse, turning to Alice, and sighing. ‘It is a long tail, certainly,’ said Alice, looking down with wonder at the Mouse’s tail; ‘but why do you call it sad?’ And she kept on puzzling about it while the Mouse was speaking.”

Pompeii still has many secrets to uncover—but should we
keep digging?
In the last year alone, excavations in the ancient
Roman city of Pompeii have uncovered a 2,000-year-old
laundromat, a bedroom used by slaves, and a fresco
_________ an ancestor of pizza. None of those discoveries,
however, stemmed from new digs into the 20-foot layer of
ash that encased the city after Mount Vesuvius’ eruption in
A.D. 79.
Pompeii, of course, still has more secrets to reveal.
Estimates vary but anywhere between 15 to 25% of the city
remains covered. For many archaeologists though, the
question isn’t so much what they have left to find—but
should they continue digging at all?
For decades, the Italian government had a
moratorium on any new excavations in Pompeii. That means
most of the finds are byproducts of efforts to preserve and
restore what’s already been unearthed, according to Steven
Ellis, a professor of Roman archaeology at the University of
Cincinnati who worked on excavating Pompeii’s Porta Sabia
_______________. “We have enough of [excavated]
Pompeii for the general public. We have enough of Pompeii
for the scholarly community to learn from,” Ellis said. “What
we really need to be doing is keeping it as well preserved for
the future as we __________ can.” Going back over those
unearthed areas with new and better technology could yield
just as exciting discoveries as digging up new sites without
putting the city—and future generations’ ability to see it—at
risk, Ellis adds.

Anthropologie Elevates Maeve in Rare Retail Brand
Launch
Anthropologie is spinning off its Maeve product line as a
standalone brand, a rare move in a retail sector where
brand extensions have become less common.
The decision reflects shifting strategies among specialty
retailers as they work to adapt to changes in women's
fast-fashion and evolving consumer behavior.
Maeve, known for its blend of classic silhouettes and
modern flourishes, will now operate independently with
dedicated storefronts and separate digital channels,
including new social media accounts and editorial content
platforms, according to a Monday (Aug. 4) press release.
The brand is inclusive, spanning plus, petite, tall and
adaptive options, which broaden its reach as the industry
contends with demands for representation.
Maeve has nearly 2 million customers and was the
most-searched brand on the Anthropologie website over
the past year, the release said. It is also a driver of
TikTok engagement. Several of the company's most
"hearted" items online are already from the Maeve label.
"Maeve has emerged as a true driver of growth within
Anthropologie's portfolio," Anu Narayanan, president of
women's and home at Anthropologie Group, said in the
release. "Its consistent performance, combined with our
customers' emotional connection to the brand, made this
the right moment to evolve Maeve into a standalone
identity."
While many retailers have retreated from new brand
creation, opting instead to consolidate or focus on core
labels, Anthropologie's move suggests confidence in
cultivating sizable, engaged consumer communities
around sub-brands.
Anthropologie is backing Maeve's standalone debut with
a comprehensive marketing campaign, including
influencer-driven content, a new Substack, a launch
event in New York, and a charitable partnership, per the
release. The first Maeve brick-and-mortar store is set to
open in Raleigh, North Carolina, in the fall.
The move comes as the apparel sector in the United
States sees shoppers valuing not just price and selection,
but brand story, inclusivity and digital experience. While
the outcome remains to be seen, Anthropologie's gamble
on Maeve reflects a belief that consumers remain eager
to embrace distinctive, thoughtfully curated fashion.

Colombia deadliest country for environmentalists -
report
By Vanessa Buschschlüter
BBC News
Tuesday, September 13, 2023
At least 177 environmental activists were killed across
the world last year, a report by the non-governmental
organisation Global Witness suggests.
Sixty of the killings took place in Colombia, making it
the deadliest country for environmental defenders.
Global Witness says very few of the perpetrators of the
killings are ever brought to justice.
The group said in its report that the total number of those
killed in the country since it began recording data on
attacks on environmentalists in 2012 had amounted to at
least 382.
While that makes it the country with the highest number
of murders of green activists anywhere in the world,
other countries in Latin America also proved deadly.
Brazil recorded 34 murders of defenders of the
environment. Mexico 31 and Honduras 11. The Amazon
region saw 39 killings, with many of the victims from
indigenous communities.
"Research has shown again and again that Indigenous
peoples are the best guardians of the forests and therefore
play a fundamental role in mitigating the climate crisis,"
said Global Witness senior adviser Laura Furones.
Global witness said the full scale of the killings was
unknown, with a lack of independent monitoring and
restrictions on free press in many countries leading to an
underreporting of cases.
They have called on governments around the world to
urgently address the issue, adding that defenders were
also increasingly being subjected to legal efforts to
silence them.
(Adapted from washingtonpost.com)
In the 8th paragraph, senior adviser Laura Furones shares
about the importance of Indigenous people as guardians
of the forests.Without changing the meaning of the
sentence, which alternative can replace the word
mitigating in the sentence?

Teaching music with a system that works
Schoolchildren in Britain are set to enjoy high
quality teaching from classical music legends
thanks ...................... an exciting project linked to
Venezuela’s world-famous El Sistema orchestra.
Four new community orchestras have been
created ...................... the country in a scheme ...................... aims to improve children’s confidence
through music. Government departments are
providing funds...................... the multi-million
pound project in Gateshead, Leeds, Nottingham,
and Telford ...................... 2015.
El Sistema is the inspiration behind Britain’s In Harmony scheme. In Harmony uses classical music to
change the lives of children, and benefit their communities, and families.
Already, musicians from the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and Manchester Camerata have
agreed to take part. They will provide instrumental
tuition, ensemble playing practice, and promote wider
musical activities in communities. Organizers hope the
initiative will give children role models to look up to,
and help uncover the next generation of composers,
artists, and performers.
For several years, there have been successful In Harmony projects in London and Liverpool. While the
project is all about classical music, some of those who
have taken part have shown an interest in other types
of music, too. Many of those children whose musical
talents really stood out have since begun to learn the
piano, drums, or guitar, while others have gone into
music production. Some have gone on to record and
release their own music, and others now perform
regular gigs. Organizers of the scheme want to repeat
that success by bringing the project to towns and
cities where there are areas of deprivation.
The project offers disadvantaged children the chance
to master a classical instrument with rigorous tuition.
Along the way, the children learn valuable teamwork
skills, and enjoy a sense of community spirit. In the
past, it has transformed attitudes towards classical
music, and learning in general. Even children who
say that they can’t stand learning instruments at the
beginning, sometimes end up wanting to become
professional musicians by the end. They often grow to
realize that they love making music after playing with
others in an orchestra.
In Harmony will run in selected primary schools
whose students will meet several times a week from
an early age to play instruments together. The aim

Teaching music with a system that works
Schoolchildren in Britain are set to enjoy high
quality teaching from classical music legends
thanks ...................... an exciting project linked to
Venezuela’s world-famous El Sistema orchestra.
Four new community orchestras have been
created ...................... the country in a scheme ...................... aims to improve children’s confidence
through music. Government departments are
providing funds...................... the multi-million
pound project in Gateshead, Leeds, Nottingham,
and Telford ...................... 2015.
El Sistema is the inspiration behind Britain’s In Harmony scheme. In Harmony uses classical music to
change the lives of children, and benefit their communities, and families.
Already, musicians from the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and Manchester Camerata have
agreed to take part. They will provide instrumental
tuition, ensemble playing practice, and promote wider
musical activities in communities. Organizers hope the
initiative will give children role models to look up to,
and help uncover the next generation of composers,
artists, and performers.
For several years, there have been successful In Harmony projects in London and Liverpool. While the
project is all about classical music, some of those who
have taken part have shown an interest in other types
of music, too. Many of those children whose musical
talents really stood out have since begun to learn the
piano, drums, or guitar, while others have gone into
music production. Some have gone on to record and
release their own music, and others now perform
regular gigs. Organizers of the scheme want to repeat
that success by bringing the project to towns and
cities where there are areas of deprivation.
The project offers disadvantaged children the chance
to master a classical instrument with rigorous tuition.
Along the way, the children learn valuable teamwork
skills, and enjoy a sense of community spirit. In the
past, it has transformed attitudes towards classical
music, and learning in general. Even children who
say that they can’t stand learning instruments at the
beginning, sometimes end up wanting to become
professional musicians by the end. They often grow to
realize that they love making music after playing with
others in an orchestra.
In Harmony will run in selected primary schools
whose students will meet several times a week from
an early age to play instruments together. The aim
is engage all the children in participating schools
and communities so they can benefit from sharing
the experience. Once the project settles down in the
communities where it is launching, it is hoped the
children will soon be rehearsing for big performances
on the local, regional, or national stage.
