阅读下面的短文，然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.
The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.
Finally the day came when the boy didn’t lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper. The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.
The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence. He said, “You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave scars just like these. And no matter how many times you say you're sorry, the wounds will still be there.”

Anger management
A bad-tempered boy finally learned to properly manage his anger following his father’s advice---hammering nails into the fence. And he was also made to understand that venting anger can do irreversible harm to others. (35)
If anger is expressed in harmful ways, it can lead to problems---sometimes for you and often for others around you. People with poor anger management are more likely to have problems with personal relationships; what’s worse, they can experience anxiety, depression, even problems with alcohol. In a word, it can affect the overall quality of your life.
To keep your anger in check, you need to recognize what makes you angry and identify the warning signs of anger in your body, so that when you are about to lose it, you can get out of the situation, taking a walk or using other distractions from the situation. But if you feel your anger is out of control, don’t hesitate to seek professional assistance from a psychologist or a support group.

试题分析：本文属于读写任务写作，动笔前，一定要认真阅读原文，并理解内容。认真看清题目要求，这篇书面表达给了一段材料：先要求以约30个词概括上文的主要内容，要求有很高的概括提炼的能力，要抓住文章的主题，再以约120个词写一篇短文，按照要点去表达，不能有遗漏，写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系。写作时尽量使用自己会的单词、词组和句型，同时也要注意使用一些高级语法和句型，使自己的文章更有文采。
【亮点说明】范文先是简单明了的总结了短文的大意，然后展开论述，其中不乏好的短语：lead to 导致， what’s worse更糟糕的是, be likely to 有可能， In a word总之,一句话，out of control失去控制, hesitate to犹豫做…，注意这句话：To keep your anger in check, you need to recognize what makes you angry and identify the warning signs of anger in your body, so that when you are about to lose it, you can get out of the situation, taking a walk or using other distractions from the situation.这句话是个长句，包含不定式做目的状语，what引导的宾语从句，so that引导的结果状语从句，when引导的时间状语从句，还有现在分词做状语。
