Many people often lack energy and feel tired. If you are one of them, take the following suggestions to become an energetic person and make use of your full potential.

Manage your stress. If you are upset by emotions that result from stress, you will likely find that you have run out of energy. To control your stress, consider talking things out with a close friend or perhaps consulting a psychiatrist.

Take a nap when it is possible. Although you might be busy every day, there is always some time to get a few minutes of shut-eye. Don't sleep too long, or you might experience difficulty in falling asleep normally that night, which will throw off your whole sleep schedule.

Foods that have too much sugar can lead to glucose fluctuations (血糖波动) which then cause energy levels to decrease. Many people suffer from low energy due to a lack of protein. For fast and effective energy change, you can eat a few handfuls of nuts.

Schedule your time in a practical, realistic manner. Being too busy can decrease your productivity and do harm to your mental health. So try to get one day of relaxation a week.

Exercise out. Exercising out ensures sound sleep at night, and it helps oxygen to circulate, providing the cells with higher amounts of energy to burn. It also leaves you feeling refreshed and full of energy.

A. Eat less.

B. Sing alone or get up and dance.

C. Consider what you eat and drink.

D. Naps should be a maximum of 30 minutes.

Cambodian people first came to the 38th District when they escaped from being killed by the Khmer Rouge during the 1970s. Cambodian traditions are kept alive in the celebration of the Cambodian New Year in April, which features (以……为特色) native food, religious events, and traditional Cambodian dances, with their costumes and beautiful movements. The Hmong people, who came to the 38th District because of the war in Vietnam, celebrate their New Year in December. Wearing colorful costumes, singing native songs and playing native instruments, the Hmong celebrate New Year by performing ceremonies to honor the dead and the spirits of nature.The tradition of the Indo­Americans in the District is kept through their social, professional and political clubs, and by wearing their traditional dress and performing folk dances from India. The Chamorro people, first from the Mariana Islands and Guam in the Pacific, hold an annual cultural fair in Long Beach; central to the Chamorran tradition is respect for elders, religious beliefs, storytelling, dancing, canoemaking, and the production of tools. Marking the end of slavery, Juneteenth was first celebrated on June 19 in Galveston, Texas, in 1865. Today African­Americans in Long Beach celebrate the holiday with choir performances, African dances and displays of African art products.

Individual events also help to combine many races and nationalities in the 38th District. Kidsday recognizes the outstanding achievements of 100 to 200 Downey youth in academic, athletic and community­based activities. Other 38th District events include the annual Downey Youth Fishing Day and the Anaheim International Festival street fair. The Long Beach Municipal Band is also important to the 38th District and so is Long Beach's sister city of Sochi, Russia.

Gradually, her health broke down, and she began to think that she could never work any more, but after a long rest in England, she came back to America and did something far greater than teaching. She went through the whole country where she first observed the inhumane treatment of the mentally ill. During Dorothea's traveling for nearly two years throughout the state, and meeting similar conditions, she always spoke kindly to the ill-treated, but she spoke wrathfully to the men who ill-treated them. In January 1843, she submitted to the Massachusetts legislature (立法机关) a detailed report of her fully documented findings.

In the next 40 years Dorothea inspired legislators in 15 US states and in Canada to establish state hospitals for the mentally ill. Her continuous efforts directly affected the building of 32 institutions in the United States. When the Civil War broke out, she went straight to Washington and offered to nurse the soldiers without pay. She hired houses to keep supplies in and bought an ambulance. She gave her time, strength and money to her country.

Dorothea Dix has been called the most useful woman of America. She is an, American educator, social reformer and humanitarian whose devotion to the welfare of the mentally ill led to widespread reforms in the United States and abroad.

Not much is known about Gellar's character on the show, except for the fact that she is playing Kristin Ramsey, an expert who moves to Los Angeles to find the person who started the wildfires. She spoke to Fox News Digital about her big return to TV, and explained why she thought she was drawn to projects featuring monsters (怪物).

"For me, it's always about the stories, and in talking today, we have discovered that the superhuman allows you to tell the most human stories because it really allows you to use these monsters to explore emotions, fears and anxieties that you can't experience in other worlds," Gellar explained.

"I think it's a really important conversation that people will be along for the ride, but then realize what the meaning is behind all of it," she added. Gellar's co-star, Rodrigo, agreed with her, saying he hoped audiences could look at the deeper meanings behind the monsters on the show and realize they were all metaphors (隐喻) to discuss in our own inner monsters."

Gellar recently told SFX Magazine she was very proud of the show.

As a crane (吊车)1 working on a construction site, Edwards2 found himself in a life-saving mission when a fire broke out. He recalled how he3 the trapped worker from his crane's cabin (驾驶舱), and how he came up with the idea of saving the man by lowerin a cage to him to let him4.

Susan had a secret: she loved robots. She had helped her dad in his workshop and knew a lot about motors, but her friends didn't know this.

One day, she heard Alex and Jacob talking about their robot, Robbie. They were preparing for a big competition but Robbie wasn't working properly. Susan was surprised by their courage, as they always seemed unpopular among the boys. She felt bad for them and wanted to help.

On the school bus home, Susan sat behind Alex and Jacob, who were still trying to fix their robot. "This is impossible! The legs move before you press the switch and stop after you press the switch!" Alex said, looking at Robbie's legs, which were not moving right. "The competition is only eight days away!" Jacob looked sad. He thought they were going to lose.

"Umm, how did you connect the wires from the switch?" Susan asked quietly over their shoulders. Alex turned and gave her a cautious look. Susan smiled and asked, "Did you connect the NO wire or the NC wire to the motor?" The boys stared at her as if she had just landed from Mars.

Susan gently took the robot and pointed out the wire connected to the motor. "Here's the problem!" She explained that it was the NC wire. It means the circuit (电路) is Normally Closed. She then pulled a loose wire out of the robot and explained that it was the NO wire, which means Normally Open. "If you connect this wire instead, Robbie will walk when you press the switch." Susan handed the robot back to Alex, who was staring at her with his mouth open.

"Change the wires and see," she said before getting off the bus. Ten minutes later, her phone rang. It was Jacob: "Your idea worked, and we're wondering if you could come over and help improve our Robbie." Susan smiled. She knew she had made the right choice.

Currently under construction off the country's northeast coast, the Dalian Jinzhou Bay International Airport will eventually cover 8-square-mile island with four runways and a 969,000 sq ft passenger terminal, according to an airport statement. Its operators aim (handle) 80 million passengers per year across 540,000 flights, with the first phase due to open in 2035. "The country's largest offshore airport is rising slowly from the sea level like the sunrise in the east," (read) a post by Dalian Jinzhou Bay International on Chinese social media platform WeChat. Once (accomplish), it will become the world's largest airport on an artificial island, surpassing both Hong Kong International Airport (HKG) and Japan's Kansai Airport (KIX). "There have been great challenges to the construction," Li Xiang, chief engineer of Dalian Airport Construction and Development Co., Ltd., told state-run local media in October, "as not only does the project have complex geological conditions and high drilling difficulty, high demand in quality with a tight construction schedule is another challenge we have to take into account."

As it is, it is the city of Dalian, with a population of 7.5 million, has long been a transport hub due to its proximity to Japan and South Korea. Dalian Zhoushuizi Airport, the city's international airport, has been operating for nearly a century, has already met its maximum capacity and (expand) several times these years, according to YiCai Global, a state-linked newspaper. The city started site selection and (demonstrate) work on the new airport in 2003, but construction only began in earnest a few years ago. China's aviation (boom) fast, new airports are a key part and surprisingly, the country is on track to pass the United States and become the world's largest air travel market.

Reggie didn't like it, but his friend Michael hated it more and decided things had to be3. He proposed the Day of Silence: in honour of Reggie, they should set aside one day for4 people, when everyone would have to wear earplugs (耳塞).

People liked the5. When the day arrived everyone stuck plugs in their ears, in a spirit of great6. That morning was filled with jokes and laughter. But, as the hours passed, people became aware of how7 life was when one couldn't hear anything.

However, that was nothing compared to the greatest8 of the day: Reggie was amazing! Just using his9 body language, he was the best to communicate with everyone. People paid more attention to what Reggie was saying, and were10 by his intelligence. They realized all Reggie needed was a little more11 to enable communication. That was the only12.

So on the Day of Silence, Reggie's true13 became known. And everyone realised you have to give people a chance to show how14 they are. They also learn that you couldn't hear the slightest thing until you truly15.

We all know the feeling — you want to check what someone you care about has been up to on social media, and suddenly you find you are denied access to their feeds. It's an instant start of mixed emotions and speculations — When did this happen? Did I do anything wrong? What are they attempting to hide from me?

And that's what half of Chinese parents have to deal with when they try to browse their children's WeChat Moments, also known as "Friends' Circle", as suggested by a recent survey released by Tencent, the Chinese Internet giant. According to the report, entitled Annual White Paper on Family Affection on WeChat Moments, about 52 percent of WeChat users aged 18 to 29 block their parents on Moments, a major feature on the platform that allows users to share everything they like with their WeChat contacts.

About 62 percent of the young interviewees said that parents "are neurotic about everything", along with reasons such as fear of parents' disapproval, rejection to parents' nagging (唠叨), and seeking privacy. "My parents don't know Moments very well, so I just told them I don't use it anymore," said Qin Jianping, a 28-year-old son. He added that his parents had been leaving comments requesting updates on his dating status on every post he made on Moments since he broke up with his girlfriend two years ago. Xie Yun, a 26- year-old daughter, said that while she didn't block her parents entirely, they were in a specific group to which she only shares positive posts. "I don't want my parents to see minor setbacks in my life," she said, adding that once her parents saw a Moments picture of her hand getting slightly burned while cooking, and they traveled all the way to her city to make sure she was all right.

The report also found that more than 49 percent of Chinese parents use WeChat as a main channel to communicate with their children. Roughly 36 percent of the parents who took the survey said they checked every post made by their children. When asked how they would react to being blocked, some parents said they would initiate a conversation with their children to find out the reason, while others said they wouldn't care. And some parents just outsmart their kids in this hide-and-seek game online. "I didn't realize I was blocked until I compared what I could see on my phone to what my son's aunt could see," said Chen, a mother of a 27-year-old son. "I chose to remain silent on this and now I'm following my son's posts through his aunt."

Air travel is getting faster all the time. Engineers say that soon people will be "shot" to their destinations in huge rockets, which will be able to carry a quarter of passenger capacity in general airliner at a time. These rockets will be shot high above the earth's atmosphere and land on the other side of the earth forty-five minutes after take-off. They will be able to cross the Pacific Ocean, such as from Los Angeles to Honolulu, in only eighteen minutes.

But, of course, passengers will be faced with the same problems on the ground that they face at present. We shall still spend hours getting to the airport. Today, the shortest part of the journey and the least difficult is in the air. The worst and longest part is on the roads leading from the center of town to the airport. The roads become crowded increasingly while our planes become faster and faster.

Her first travels around our part of the Southern End were rather slow (cars piled up behind us). So thank you, nice people.

But I want to single out other drivers for my appreciation. I will call you "friends".

But no kidding, I sincerely want to thank you "friends", because you have taught my daughter not to take anything for granted on the roads. You deserve the credit for making her a defensive driver.

I warned her about "friends" like you, but your actions speak much louder than my words.

She's watched you go through red lights and stop signs, turn without signaling, fail to yield at the crossroads, or hesitate at a stop sign and then pull out into her path at the last millisecond. I especially appreciated the "friend" who pulled up beside us the other night at a stop sign on a two-way road and took off quickly as Abigail just started to make her move.

"What was that!" Abigail shouted.

"That's a ‘friend'!" I yelled.

And then there are those of you who find a slow-moving vehicle (farm machinery down our way) in your lane and swing out into the opposite lane to pass, oblivious of vehicles coming in the opposite direction.

My daughter has learned that a tractor coming her way means there might be an impatient "friend" hiding, ready to cross into her lane.

That's an invaluable lesson. Thanks.

And thank you to all the walkers, adults and children, who appear from between cars. "Be ready to stop" is a lesson that you have taught my daughter well. At the same time, I have taught her the rules for yielding to walkers.

Teaching a teen to be a defensive driver isn't easy. I want you to know that I couldn't have done it without you, my "friends".

Thanksgiving for the Soul

Working as a primary teacher in Pompton Lakes Primary School, New Jersey, I particularly believed in cultivating love in children from an early age. I wanted children to experience that it's more blessed to give than to receive. I wanted them to understand that love of society and love of life is not just lip service; that people somehow have to make it come alive. I hoped they could experience a sense of their own power to make a difference.

There was a rural area nearby where a lot of aged people lived in solitude (孤独). They either had no family or their children had left to work in big cities. Most of them lived on government aid to keep body and soul together. An agency, which was in charge of the elder people in this region, had once told me about a needy grandmother, Mrs. Wilson, who had lived alone for many years. I had always desired to do something for her. So I came up with the Thanksgiving plan.

In October, I told the eight-year-olds in my class about my plan. "I'd like all of you to do extra jobs around the house to earn some money," I said. "Then we'll buy food for a Thanksgiving dinner for a needy grandma who might not have a nice dinner otherwise."

Early in Thanksgiving week, the boys and girls arrived in class clutching (紧握) their hard-earned money. They had cleared rubbish, set tables, washed dishes, helped with younger siblings. And now they couldn't wait to go shopping.

I watched while they ran up and down the supermarket aisles (货架通道). At last we headed toward the checkout, pushing a cart filled with turkey and all the trimmings (配料). Then someone spotted a "necessity"—flowers, which caught their attention. All kids ran toward the holiday flowers, with one proposing, "Flowers! We can buy her a bunch of flowers!"

Filial piety, otherwise (know) as xiao, is at the core (核心) of Chinese culture. Originating from Confucian philosophy, filial piety means love and respect for one's elders and (obey) their wishes. But there is something else, too. (achieve) filial piety, you have to be there for them physically, and look after them in their old age.

In our modern 21st century, (globe) migration has long become a norm (标准). Many of my Western friends say they feel very little connection to (they) birth country after a few significant moves across regions.

, China's case is a little different. Although we Chinese young generations have embraced our new lives all around the world, the (strong) of our family ties and filial piety deeply links us our cultural roots. Like kites flying high in the sky, we will (connect) with the land and the people who have shaped our characters to make us we are.

Ma, who uses a wheelchair, was born in 1995 in the Ningxia Hui autonomous region. His2 piece is his debut prose collection, Qing Bai Shijie. The opening chapter delves into Ma's childhood memories. While his peers ran and played, Ma could only sit on the stone steps, watching in3 and sadness. His limbs were weak, and he couldn't move or stand without help from birth, which4   him from other children. This5 memory has stayed with him, and it became the title of his first6 published prose piece and the entire book.

Ma's writing journey began in 2016, the year he passed his college entrance exams but7 not to enroll in university due to his family's financial circumstances and his health conditions. Although his decision was8 love and sacrifice, it plunged Ma into despair.

The turning point came9 a friend gave him a book, Shi Tiesheng's best-seller Wo Yu Ditan. Shi, a renowned writer who also uses a wheelchair, had10 his struggles into profound literature. At first, Ma had no interest in the book — he had lost11 for everything. But one word caught his eye: "wheelchair". As he read, Ma felt a spark of light illuminating his world. He could gather the courage to do something, like writing, instead of staying in bed letting life pass him by.   

He embarked on a three-year odyssey of writing the book by12 his own life, pouring his heart and soul into the words. In June 2023, Ma received unexpected good news: His book was one of 10 selected for publication through the project. This achievement marked a significant milestone in his13 journey.

Ma writes this line in the profile for his personal social media account as his motto: "Be a(n)14 writer." Writing is not just a profession for Ma — it's a lifeline, a way to15 the world and leave behind a legacy of courage, sincerity and hope.

Since the 1970s, researchers have suspected that some fish can detect magnetic fields. But no one had shown that sharks use the fields to find their location or navigate (导航), partly because the animals aren't so easy to work with. It's one thing if you have a small fish, or a baby sea turtle, but when you work with sharks, you have to upscale everything.

Bryan Keller, an ecologist at Florida State University, and his colleagues decided to do just that. They lined a bedroom-size cage with wire and placed a small swimming pool in the center of the cage. By running an electrical current through the wiring, they could generate a custom magnetic field in the center of the pool. The team then collected 20 young bonnethead sharks — a species known to migrate hundreds of kilometers — off the Florida coast. They placed the sharks into the pool, one at a time, and let them swim freely under three different magnetic fields, applied in random succession. One field mimicked (模仿) Earth's natural field at the spot where the sharks were collected, while the others mimicked the fields at locations 600 kilometers north and 600 kilometers south of their homes.

They used software to track the sharks' responses, observing which direction in the tank they were trying to swim towards. When the young sharks were exposed to the magnetic field of the place they were captured, or ‘home', they stayed put. But when subjected to the southern magnetic field, the sharks persistently changed their headings to swim north, as if trying to get back home. This suggests that the sharks were using the magnetic field to guide them, similar to how humans use GPS.

Surprisingly, the researchers found that the sharks didn't favor any direction when swimming under the northern field. Keller says this might be because they don't go north of their home location since there is only land there, and so they rarely have to find their way back south again. "This could support the theory that their ability to go back home is a learned behavior," he says. They might not know what to do in the northern field because "they've never been up there." says Keller.

Keller's research adds a significant piece to the still-incomplete puzzle of shark biology. Sharks have been declining at an alarming rate due to mostly overfishing and habitat change. Studying the life cycles and migration patterns of sharks can help us understand what arcas to protect when managing marine spaces.

Of course, artists contributed to this mythology (神话) . Many artists credited their talents to the presence of some supernatural power. Whole movements of art have centered on the supposedly otherworldly nature of art. For example, the Romantic poets believed that art was a term that meant an ultimate expression of beauty and truth. The search for this ideal led them to explore both natural and supernatural themes in their works.

Another persistent view of art regarded its divorce from logic. Reason and logic were the province of scientists and philosophers, whereas creativity and insight were the area of the artists. The two separate aspects of the mind were supposed to remain distinct.

But in 1704, a major breakthrough occurred. Sir Isaac Newton, mathematician and physicist, published his study of light, Opticks. One of Newton's major discoveries was on the nature of color. Using a prism (棱镜) , Newton found that white light is actually composed of all the colors of the rainbow. He even provided a scientific explanation for the presence of rainbows. The artistic community was shocked. A scientist had taken a beautiful and magical experience and reduced it to the simple refraction of beams of light through the prism of a raindrop. A scientist had ventured into their sacred territory.

More than a hundred years later, John Keats, one of the most famous Romantic poets, accused Newton of reducing beauty by "unweaving the rainbow." His colleague, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, famously remarked that the souls of five hundred Newtons would be needed to make one Shakespeare. And yet, from another perspective, Newton did not reduce the beauty of the rainbow; he enhanced it. In his search to uncover the secrets of the rainbow, Newton demonstrated the wonder, creativity, and inspiration of an artist. He also gave the world another opportunity to experience the sublime (绝妙). Newton's discovery paved the way for the development of the science of spectroscopy, a way of analyzing the chemical makeup of light. Now scientists can look at the stars and know their composition. The sense of wonder this ability creates is not much different from the wonder the poet or artist feels when staring at those same stars.
