Choosing the Right Path to Be a"Better" Person

Life is a constant exercise in self-improvement. In the rush to achieve, the idea of being "better" can become lost sometimes. You may always wonder how to improve yourself and fulfill your dreams in an easier way.

Explore your talents.

Everybody has some outstanding skills or interests. So it's often necessary to be patient and try many things before you find one that suits you. For example, people loving adventure may not be interested in the quiet chess club, but someone who enjoys other quiet activities might be. Determining who you enjoy being around may help you know what you'll enjoy.

No matter how much money you make. you will not be happy if you spend your entire life doing something you hate. It's important to at least devote some of your time to what makes you happy.

If you're particularly unhappy at your job, consider why. If you feel your job isn't meaningful, or isn't in line with your values, consider finding another job.

Experience something new.

Research has shown that when we're in our comfort zone, we aren't as productive as we are when we step just beyond it. Because of that, we may react slowly to our own positive experiences and interactions with others, even when those are little scary. Doing so can help you achieve more.

A. Do what you love.

B. Register in a class you're interested in.

C Here are some tips for you.

D. Humans adapt very quickly to positive events.

E. Similar types of people may be attracted to the same activities.

F. It's possible that some changes may change your feeling.

G. Try not to allow yourself to focus so much on a certain aspect of your life.

When we see a person in trouble, the first idea that comes to our mind is to lend a hand. But what if we see an animal in trouble, does the same rule apply?

This question was raised after a group of penguins （企鹅） were saved from an icy gully （峡谷） in Antarctica. It was filmed for the BBC wildlife series Dynasties. The film crew were anxious when they saw that a group of penguins had fallen into a gully and been trapped with their young. They built a slope （斜坡） so that a few of the penguins could save themselves.

The case has taken the international media by storm. Viewers watching this film sighed in relief. "I'm so glad. I understand not taking action directly, but a helping hand isn't bothering, right? " viewer Kathryn Shaw said on her Facebook.

However, others think human interference （干涉） is unnatural. "You can't have sunshine throughout your life. To have done anything else would only make matters worse." said the show's creator David Attenborough, according to The Times.

In this case, however, Mike Gunton, the executive producer of the series, said that this was a one-off situation. "There were no animals going to suffer by interfering. You weren't touching the animals and it was just felt by doing this …They had the chance not to have to keep slipping down the slope. " he told the BBC. 

Such cases are familiar to Paul Nicklen, wildlife photographer for National Geographic. He told Metro,  "If it's ever a predator （捕食者） situation, no matter how gut-wrenching , you stay out of the way. Even when you're watching a male polar bear eat a baby bear. "

"There's no rule book in those situations. You can only respond to the facts that are right there in front of you." Will Lawson, the show's director, told Daily Mail.

My husband and I recently went to Disney World with our children and grandchildren. Our grandchildren were excited about the attraction where they can drive the cars. Since our party was uneven（不均匀的） in numbers and two people fit in each car, I sat out that one and headed down to take pictures of them.

As I waited for them to drive by, I noticed a car with a father and his son who looked to be about 7. They rolled down the hill, and then as they neared where I sat, the car shook a few times and then stopped.

The young driver looked frightened, "I can't do it."

His father quietly said, "Yes, you can."

"No, I can't!"

"Yes, you can."

The little boy was almost in tears, "I CAN'T!"

With deep patience, the father said, "Son, you can do this. I'm going to help you. "

Then he talked him through starting the car. And moments later with the father helping his son, the two went smoothly on their way down the track.

The scene brought tears to my eyes because I couldn't imagine how many times my father had to do that with me. Every time things got hard or when I had failures along the way, I'd say, "I can't do it." He'd reply, "You can." Time and time again he patiently encouraged me on the journey. And just like that little boy's dad, my sweet father would say, "Michelle, you can do this. I'm going to help you. "

That's where the true strength comes in. I can't do things under my own power, but when my father comes beside me and provides wisdom (智慧) and strength, there's no way I can fail.

Tang Dynasty poets sang for about three centuries in different tones. There were many famous poets living in the Tang period, such as Li Bai, Du Fu, Bai Juyi and Li Shangyin. Poems of the Tang Dynasty edited in the Qing Dynasty is a collection of more than 48, 900 poems that were written by over 2, 200 poets. But it didn't cover all the poems of the Tang Dynasty.

During the Tang Dynasty, poems were recited when lovers walked under the moonlight. Poems were also recited when soldiers fought on the battlefield. People recited them in the open air or at temple fairs.

Tang Dynasty poets wrote poems to win fame and also to develop their temperament (性情). They poured out deep feelings for their friends and criticized injustice in the world through poems.

In the Tang Dynasty scholars had to be poets. Their readers were not only people of high social position but also common people. Poets recited poems, women singers sang poems and other ranks of people, including old women and children, read Tang poems. This atmosphere affected foreigners who visited the country at that time. As a result, Tang poetry was introduced to some adjacent countries, like Japan and Vietnam.

Tang poetry is a most brilliant page in the history of ancient Chinese literature. It's a miracle(奇迹) in the cultural history of mankind. The Tang Dynasty was a powerful empire with a vast territory. It inherited (继承) Chinese civilization that went back to ancient times, was combined with the best of other cultures and adopted the benefits of other nations in the world. Tang poetry wasn't the only spiritual wealth created by the Tang Dynasty people. Philosophy and religion, handwriting and painting, and music and dance all gained new peaks of development. Tang poetry, however, was the jewel in the crown and its greatest achievement.

Brett Bacon, along with his wife Lindsay and their newborn child, was out boating on the lake near their house in Lake Windermere in British Columbia when he saw something strange in the water.

At first Bacon just thought it was a carpet(地毯) in the water. As soon as he realized it was a bird and saw its wide wings and even its head popping up, he knew what it was.

It was a giant eagle. Eagles can actually get waterlogged (浸水的) as compared to other large birds that can go in the water and get out. It's not strange to see eagles go into the water to catch fish and then pop back up, but this thing was wet through and struggling to stay above the water. It was trying to swim and trying to fly away, but it just couldn't get out of the water at all. The large bird's only chance to get out itself was by swimming but it was about a kilometer to shore(岸边) in any direction.

Seeing the state of the bird, Bacon knew he needed to do something to help it out. Lindsay started recording and caught what happened next on video, while their son lay on a seat across from Bacon.

Bacon brought the boat close to the eagle. It took a few tries. But after about fifteen minutes, Bacon was actually able to take hold of the bird and bring it into the boat. "People must have just thought I had a dog on my lap, but from my bottom to my head, he was the same height as me," said Bacon.

As soon as the bird was in the boat, it immediately took off and dropped into the water again.

"We need to pick it up again, so let's turn around," said Bacon.

The whole community just came down to watch this eagle.

How to live a successful life in high school

This year sees the 193rd birthday of Jules Verne, the famed French poet, novelist, and playwright(剧作家) known "Father of Science Fiction".

One of Verne's lesser-known works from 1905, The Lighthouse at the End of the World, (adapt) carefully for the first time into a five-issue comic book miniseries(迷你剧) in April. (plan) by the experienced creative team of Brian Haberlin and David Hine, Jules Verne's: Lighthouse gets a sci-fi twist(曲折) and casts (reader) into the high seas of outer space for a swashbuckling(惊心动魄的) adventure.

Here's the official (introduce):

"Jules Verne's: Lighthouse " is set at the edge of the galaxy, a giant supercomputer known as the Lighthouse exists: the only brain powerful enough (guide) ships through a large area of naturally occurring wormholes, (potential) cutting months or even years off a spaceship's journey. Three humans, one alien, and a nanny robot have manned there mote station for years in relative peace until the arrival of Captain Kongre and his band of cruel pirates threatens the future of civilization and (show) that each of the Lighthouse crew has been hiding shocking secret: he who controls the Lighthouse controls this part of the galaxy.

U. S. Navy veteran(海军退伍军人) Donald Helfer flew 28 times over enemy land during WWII. Along with the Navy Flying Cross and a Bronze Star, Helfer even received a(n)1from the President in which the President expressed his appreciation for Helfer's2"to bring about the total defeat of the enemy".

3, Helfer was never one to expect fame or money. Later, he retired to Florida. He passed away in 1993, taking the memories of his impressive4with him—almost. While Helfer's children knew of their dad's time in the navy, they5knew the true nature of his service.

When Helfer's6items—including medals, photos and records—turned up in a dumpster (大垃圾桶) in Hickory, the man who found them immediately recognized their7. The finder sent these things to Navy vet and American Legion Post 544 Commander Jeff Truitt for safekeeping until Helfer's8could be found. Truitt was able to9Helfer's grown children in New York, and his daughter, Linda Delorey, living in North Carolina.

Later, Delorey went from home to Hickory to10Truitt. Delorey was very excited as she turned the pages of the neatly organized binder(活页夹) Truitt had put together11her father's treasure.

Now that the family12has been brought back, Delorey plans to13it with her relatives as soon as she's able to. "Helfer was just one of the millions who14—and his story should be told and15forever," Truitt said.

Science fiction, or sci-fi, with more themes related to environmental issues, overpopulation, and technological growth, has explosively (爆发地) grown in popularity since the beginning of the 21st century.

Some Chinese Sci-Fi History

Few works were translated. And the Western world had little to no taste for it.

The history of Chinese sci-fi is extensive, but the modern genre first took root during the 1900s. Authors such as Lu Xun promoted sci-fi's early development in China and translated multiple Western stories like Jules Verne's From the Earth to the Moon. Following the 1970s, China began its own golden age of science fiction. Movies, clubs, magazines, societies and communities formed around this genre and became increasingly popular among Chinese readers.

Its Entry into the West

Chinese sci-fi has become internationally recognized, mainly because of Ken Liu, who translated The Three-Body Problem, the first contemporary Chinese sci-fi novel to be translated into English. Chinese sci-fi's introduction into the West began with this novel, and it couldn't have been given a better international debut(亮相). Liu has become a go-to source for Chinese authors seeking international audiences.

What Makes Chinese Sci-Fi Distinctive (独特的)

The subgenre is unique for using a number of cultural and traditional objects, words, places and beliefs. The stories are also different because many modern Chinese sci-fi authors were heavily affected by the events of the 20th century. Their perspectives(思维方式) and ideas on morals, ethics(伦理), government, politics, science and anything in between come from standpoints previously unknown to Western readers.

A. Published in 2014, it proved to be a huge success.

B. He is a writer, translator and computer scientist.

C. Before the 2000s, Chinese sci-fi was lesser-known.

D. Chinese sci-fi also made its way to take the West by storm.

E. Similar to Western sci-fi, it has experienced the ups and downs.

F. This laid the foundation for its eventual introduction to Western readers.

G. This makes Chinese sci-fi a cultural and historical analysis of China.

There's a good reason people say laughter is the best medicine. In a recent study from Rehabilitation Nursing Journal, researchers looked at changes in loneliness for older adults in nursing homes after receiving laughter therapy (疗法). Each of the 31 participants received laughter therapy twice a week for six weeks, while the same number of controls only received usual care. At the end of the six weeks, those who participated in laughter therapy reported less loneliness than the control group.

Laughter therapy is a low-key option that you can practice in many ways. Jenna Pascual, a laughter yoga teacher, hosts group and one-on-one classes with seniors. She starts by guiding people through warmups to get comfortable with stimulating laughter. These may involve deep breathing exercises, clapping and light stretches paired with laughter, and call-and-response laughter. She then transitions(转变) to laughter around a theme, such as a Hawaiian beach party or Star Wars, pairing laughter with small movements.

Many forms of laughter therapy are available to all. "Laughter therapy is great for people with disabilities," says Katie Ziskind, a marriage and family therapist. Pascual also works with people in wheelchairs or hospital beds.

Rehabilitation Nursing's study is one in a long line of research confirming laughter's ability to improve well-being in older adults. In a 2015 study from the International Journal of Nursing and Midwifery, people aged 60 or older at a retirement center attended two 90-minute laughter therapy classes a week for six weeks. At the end of the experiment, participants had improved general health. In a 2016 study from Nursing Open, older adults at an elderly daycare center had laughter therapy once a week for four weeks. The participants experienced reduced depression, along with increased sociability.

While you can try laughter therapy alone, there are advantages to doing it with others. "I want to stress the power of simply hearing laughter and watching others enjoying themselves laughing," says Pascual. "I've worked with seniors who were not in the mood to laugh, but after hearing and watching others laugh in my classes, they ended up laughing with us."

Vitamin B could help lessen the effects of the most dangerous type of air pollution, according to a new study published recently. In the first study of its kind, a team of international researchers looked at the damage caused by one of the pollutants that has the most serious impact on health: PM2.5.

Particulate matter, or PM, is a type of air pollutant consisting of small particles(微粒) of different sizes. PM2. 5 has a diameter of fewer than 2. 5 micrometers, about 30 times smaller than a human hair. These particles are so small that they can go into our respiratory system(呼吸系统), resulting in lung and systemic inflammation(炎症) and stress.

The team found that something as simple as a daily vitamin B supplement could potentially reduce the impact of the tiny particles on the human body, although they stressed that the research was in its early stages and the sample size was small.

For this study,10 volunteers were initially exposed to clean air and given a placebo (安慰剂) to check their responses. The group then took another placebo for four weeks before being exposed to heavily polluted air from downtown Toronto, where an estimated 1,000 cars pass every hour. The bad air was delivered to the volunteers through an "oxygen-type" face mask. The experiment was then repeated, with each volunteer taking a vitamin B supplement daily made up of 2. 5 mg of folic acid (叶酸), 50 mg of vitamin B6,and 1 mg of vitamin B12. B6 can be found in liver, chicken and nuts, and B12 in fish, meat, eggs, milk and some cereals.

The researchers found that four weeks of vitamin B supplements reduced the damage of PM2. 5 exposure by 28%-76%. The results highlight how prevention at an individual level could be used to fight the harmful effects of PM2. 5.

What began as a summer job has now taken young Brennan McVey to the steps of the Rockaway Township Municipal building and the mayor's(镇长的) office. Known by his neighbors and the township as the "Rubbish Bin Manager", McVey was given a special mention during the regular Rockaway Township Council meeting on October 25, for his work to help his neighbors and prevent unwanted run-ins with the local bear population. "Our children are our future, and when a child can respond to needs by making a decision that gives a community a chance to improve its quality of life, it represents a great moment for our township. McVey is a shining example of a positive person," Mayor Michael Dachisen read to the public.

The 10-year-old Green Pond boy had an idea in 2016 of helping to stop bears in his neighborhood from becoming endangered "troublemakers" by helping his neighbors take out the rubbish the morning of its pickup.

McVey, who is a fifth-grader at Katherine D. Malone Elementary School, noticed that some of his neighbors would leave the rubbish out the night before, an open invitation to bears. "I saw a lot of bears in the neighborhood and I thought I could help," he said. On collection day, McVey gets up early in the morning and heads to the houses of the neighbors who agreed to pay a small fee to have the young businessman bring out their rubbish to the curb(路缘).

"We had a lot of bear sightings in our community. This is one way to stop the bears from coming in by keeping the food source out of their way," the mayor added.

McVey has turned the Rubbish Bin Manager into a business, posting fliers (传单) around Green Pond, and his neighborhood has really taken to the idea.

Though many people think of summer as a time to slow down and enjoy a vacation, it can also be the perfect time to make money or get experience. Here are some good summer jobs for you.

Survey-taking

Survey-taking is a way to make money during your summer holiday, especially if you live in an area that doesn't have many chances. With a computer or smartphone, you can sit on your sofa and search for survey sites such as Surveys On The Go, InboxDollars or Swagbucks. Without much effort, you can start making money for your opinions. However, the ease of use comes with a low earning potential.

Food Delivery(递送)

If you enjoy driving, you can use your car to deliver food. You can sign up to deliver food from restaurants with services such as Uber Eats, DoorDash and Grubhub. Another choice is delivering daily used goods with services such as Postmates, Shipt and Instacart. The earning potential for delivery can be higher than for other jobs because customers often give tips. The disadvantage is that these jobs require you to put in more time.

Photo Applications

If you go to the mall, you can use an app such as Field Agent or Gigwalk to make money by taking pictures of products in stores. See any help-wanted signs in the store windows? Take a picture and get paid for each one you find.

House Sitting and Pet Care

Summer is a time when people take vacations and may need someone to look after their homes or pets. Services such as HouseSitter and MindMyHouse connect homeowners with proper house sitters(看房人). For animal lovers who would rather care for someone's pet while they are away, you can turn to services like Rover.

Jimmy loved ice cream. It was his favorite dessert (甜点). He wanted to eat ice cream all the time. His parents let him have a small dish each night after dinner, if he ate all of his vegetables.

Jimmy liked eating ice cream at home, but he really loved going to the ice cream stand to get an ice cream. There were so many different flavors to try! Jimmy always did his best to try a new kind of ice cream each time.

When Jimmy turned eight, he had a checkup at the doctor's office. Dr. Katz said that ice cream wasn't a very healthy snack. "It's fine to have a little ice cream once in a while, but not every night," she said.

After the doctor's visit, Jimmy and his mom drove home. "Can I still have ice cream for dessert tonight?" Jimmy asked." I don't think so, honey," Mom said, "We should try to be healthier."

That night at supper, Jimmy ate all his vegetables. But there was no ice cream for dessert. Instead, Mom came up with a new rule that Jimmy could have ice cream once a week. "But if you want to eat ice cream, you'll have to earn it by walking to the ice cream stand," she said.

According to the map, the ice cream stand was a mile away. Jimmy was willing to give it a try, so they decided to take their walk on Saturday afternoon. It was a hot and sunny day. Jimmy began to feel sweaty when he walked just a few hundred meters. The sun was so bright that he had to look with his eyes partly shut in order to keep out bright light.

Jimmy kicked a pebble (鹅卵石) and watched it roll into a river on the street. "I'm hot," said Jimmy, "How much farther is it?" Mom checked the map on her phone. "We're not even halfway yet. Do you want to turn around?"

According to the traditional Chinese calendar, for every 19 years there will be seven leap months(闰月). "Leap month" refers to a repetitive month.

The setting of leap month is a way to fill the gap of days between the solar calendar and lunar calendar in one year, is 11 or 12 days, so as to make sure the four seasons (basic) fit the months. The first three months of the year should be spring, the next three should be summer, then autumn and the last three months should be winter.

There are some traditions and customs during leap month in China, which (be) varied in different places. As the leap month is around corner, many people have prepared gifts for their parents.

In some parts of Central China's Henan province, daughters will prepare wild goose-shaped pastries(点心)for their parents before the leap month comes, wishing for good (fortunate).

In some parts of East China's Shandong province, the (marry) women, along with their husbands, will send dough-made fish and toad(蟾蜍)to their parents, which symbolize "wealth" and "health" respectively. Besides, it (say) that the dough fish is for a mother and the dough toad is for a father.

In some places, people have the tradition of buying shoes for their parents (reward) their father and (mother) efforts of bringing them , and pray for the health and safety of their parents.

How to Interpret Crossed Arms

Knowing how to interpret body language is essential to fully comprehending what someone is trying to say. But when it comes to crossed arms, how do we interpret them? Do crossed arms mean someone is angry? Afraid? Closed off? We've collected a list of them below.

Stress or insecurity

When someone is feeling uncomfortable during a conversation, or when the person they are talking to says something that causes their anxiety, they may cross their arms.

Anger or defensiveness

You might see someone cross their arms when they hear something that makes them angry or upset, or when they disagree with what's being said. Even if someone says, "Oh, interesting, go on", crossed arms suggest they may not really accept or agree with what they're hearing.

Determination or arrogance (傲慢)

Crossing their arms over their chests may convey determination or arrogance. What else is their body doing? Determination or arrogance might be accompanied by bright eyes or a false smile. If you want to display power or confidence in a debate, try to avoid crossing your arms, as it may make you seem more arrogant than confident.

Practical reasons

If you're speaking to someone and it seems like it's going well, but then they cross their arms, don't think too much about it. Or perhaps they're sitting in an armless chair and need to cross their arms to support their shoulders.

A. They may be hugging their body to keep warm.

B. There's more than one way to interpret crossed arms.

C. Mirror how the interviewer sits and don't cross your arms.

D. Essentially, by crossing their arms, they are comforting themselves.

E. Before you begin speaking, you will be judged on your body language.

F. You might see people engaged in a debate folding their arms to their chests.

G. Crossing their arms is a way to create a barrier between them and the speakers.

Given that stress can adversely affect human health and well-being, including causing high blood pressure and increasing the risk of heart disease, it is essential to understand our individual responses to stress and identify potential factors that can act as effective stress buffers (缓冲).

In the paper, which was recently published in the Journal of Psychophysiology, Brian Leavy, Brenda H. O'Connell, and Deirdre O'Shea propose that, although the previous research suggests that gratitude and affect balance play key stress-buffering roles, to date, little has been known about the impact of these variables on cardiovascular (心血管的) recovery from acute (急性的) psychological stress.

That was the focus of the study by the researchers from the Universities of Maynooth and Limerick in Ireland, who also sought to find out whether affect balance could regulate the relationship between gratitude and cardiovascular reactions to acute psychological stress.

The research carried out at the Irish University of Maynooth involved 68 undergraduate students (24 male and 44 female), aged between 18 and 27. This study used a within-subjects experimental design with lab tasks in which stress was put on participants and then cardiovascular reactivity and recovery in response to this was measured.

The results showed that the state of gratitude predicted lower blood pressure responses throughout the stress-testing period, which means that the state of gratitude has a unique stress-buffering effect on both reactions to and recovery from acute psychological stress. It was also found that affect balance increases the effects of gratitude.

These findings have practical value as there are several low-cost gratitude methods which can contribute to well-being, including keeping a gratitude journal and practising acts of kindness. Previous research has shown how patients who make use of gratitude journals have better cardiovascular outcomes than those who do not. Another tool to help individuals express gratitude is a gratitude card, which is one of the suggestions from Mental Health America (MHA).
