Solution:

The term 'emotion' is derived from the Latin word emovere which means to stir up, agitate, excite or move. Emotions are generally referred to as a stirred-up condition involving subjective experience and affective reactions. They may be pleasant or unpleasant. Pleasant emotions are the sources of joy whereas unpleasant emotions are related to disturbing mental states like aggression, fear, anxiety, etc. There are many emotions while dealing with different persons and objects in the environment. They can be negative emotions like fear and anxiety or positive emotions like pleasure and love.Anxiety: Anxiety is a state of painful discomfort in the mind. During anxiety, a vague fear or apprehension occurs. You may feel anxious if you dont know the exact cause. The difference between fear and anxiety often refers to the involvement of the present situation. You can recognize the cause of fear in your present circumstances whereas anxiety may arise due to an anticipated or imaginary situation.So that we can say that anxiety will be experienced by a student when he focusses on the lack of controllability and negative outcome value of an activity.??Important PointsSome of the other emotions which are seen in daily life are:?Fear: Fear is caused by situations that are perceived as physically threatening. The situations that produce fear change with age. During early childhood, we are afraid of strange objects and persons, loss of support, darkness and devils etc. During adolescence fears are mostly social in nature.Hope: Hope is an emotion characterized by positive feelings about the immediate or long-term future. Often hope is coupled with high motivation, optimism, and a generally elevated mood.Enjoyment: A feeling of taking pleasure in what is going on around you, especially in situations like a leisure activity or social gathering.Pleasure: Pleasure or happiness is a positive emotion that gives satisfaction to the person who experiences it. Pleasure is the reaction to the satisfaction of a need or the attainment of a goal. When we are happy we smile and laugh and there is a clear expression of satisfaction on our faces.Pride: Pride is an emotional response or attitude to something with an intimate connection to oneself, due to its perceived value. Affection: It is a pleasant emotional reaction directed towards a person, an animal, or an object. It is built up as a result of the pleasant experience.
