You had better learn to be grateful. If you are grateful, you naturally 　　　　 yourself up to receive all kinds of blessings and good things in life. You can receive almost everything you want　　　 . If you want recovery soon, start by feeling grateful that you are still 　　　　 . If it is more money that you want, start being grateful for whatever 　　　　 of money you already have.

You see, showing gratitude(感恩) is the key to every 　　　　 thing in life. It is the key to successful relationships, it is the key to successful futures and it is the key to 　　　 healthier and happier lives. And this is where the importance of being grateful lies.　　　　 , it makes life better.

One of my favorite 　　　 is “If you learn to appreciate more of what you already have, you will find yourself having more to appreciate.” Think about that!

Something as 　　　　 as a “Thank you for being in my life” or “I 　　　　 having you here with me”, can go a long way. It will make the other person feel good, and 　　　　 it also will make you feel better!

So maybe your wife is not very 　　　　 around the house, but she’s great at cooking your favorite 　　　　 . Or, maybe your child 　　　　 milk all over your new shirt right before you walked out the door for work, but usually he makes you laugh so much and makes you 　　　　 the luckiest parent in the world.

I strongly　　　　 you to make a promise to yourself for the next week. Decide to 　　　　 every morning and think of at least 5 things that you are 　　　 for. Then say them out loud. You will notice a smile on your face without even 　　　 . In 30 days you will feel completely renewed. This is the 　　　　 of being grateful!

My mother always told me it was better to be smart than to be beautiful. “If you are smart, finally you will afford to be beautiful.” All I needed were the brains, and someday, I would be a really beautiful lawyer.

My mother worked at a TV station and I would come along and watch the magic of filming TV shows. But all the same, I was learning.

When my father’s business failed, I was able to continue to attend one of the best bilingual(双语的）schools in Mexico City thanks to scholarship. Scholarship followed me into middle school and high school.

However, during my senior year in high school my family moved to my dad’s country, the United States. For the first time in my life, I had optional（可选择的） classes. So I decided to take psychology class. While I found the public school system to be a joke, I did find my psychology class attractive. My mother, in her dreams for my life, did not see psychology as a good choice, but I was like her, strong-willed to the subject.

I married young, even before I had a degree under my belt. Worst of all, I married a kid who wanted to be poster（牧师）. My mother loved Andy dearly but she would ask him occasionally, “ When will you have a real job?” I did finish my degree and I became a social worker, but when I had my first child at age 24, I quit my job. Then at 26, another baby girl joined our family. Unfortunately, this baby girl had Down syndrome（唐氏综合症）.

How would I be able to break the news to my mother? “ It is better to be smart than to be beautiful.” I knew what “smart” meant in the statement, and I doubted if my with an extra chromosome（染色体） would meet those expectations. My mom was coming to the hospital to meet her new grand-baby. I would tell her then. I needed time to gather my thoughts. I was afraid, afraid that she would see Nichole as one that would never be smart... or beautiful.

If you live in a city where everyone rushes, realize that you don't have to be like everyone else．You can be different．

I can't give you a step-by-step guide to moving slower, but here are some things to consider and perhaps adopt, if they work for your life．

1．Do less

Cut back on your projects, on your task list, on how much you try to do each day．Focus not on quantity but on quality．Pick 2 or 3 important things-or even just one important thing- and work on those first．

2．Have fewer meetings

Meetings are usually a big waste of time and make you rush．Try to have blocks of time with no interruptions, so you don't have to rush from one meeting to another．

3．Give yourself time to get ready and get there

If you're constantly rushing to appointments or other places you have to be, it's because you don't allot（分配） enough time in your schedule for preparing and for traveling．Pad your schedule to allow time for this stuff．If you think it only takes you 10 minutes to get ready for work or a date, perhaps give yourself 30 to 45 minutes so you don't have to shave in a rush or put on makeup in the car．

4．Practice being comfortable with sitting doing nothing

When people have to wait, they become impatient or uncomfortable．Try standing in a line and just watching and listening w people around you．It takes practice, but after a while, you’ll do it with a smile．

5．Realize that if it doesn't get done, that's Ok．

There's always tomorrow．And yes, I know that's a frustrating attitude for some of you who don't like laziness or living without firm deadlines, but it's also reality．The world likely won't end if you don't get that task done today．Your boss might get mad, but the company won't collapse and the life will inevitably go on．

Try these things out．Life is better when unrushed．

Remember the quote: If nature can get everything done without rushing, so can you．

1.Which can be the best title of the passage?

2.If you think you need 10 minutes to get ready for the date with your boyfriend, ______．

3.According to the passage, we can know_______．

4.The underlined word "collapse" has the similar meaning to "______"．

If you are planning to learn a foreign language, here are some suggestions about language learning. I hope these suggestions can help improve your learning of a foreign language

Try to set aside some time every day for your study when your brain is at the most time for receiving information. It’s better to study for 30 minutes every day than for 3 hours once a week. If you can spare two or three hours a day, break them up into some periods to avoid brain getting tired.

Go over each lesson several times, perhaps once in the morning, once in the evening and once several days later. Give your brain time to understand the material, but the break between periods of study shouldn’t be too long, or you will forget most of what you’ve learned.

Make sure you’re comfortable with the bases of the language before learning the more advanced knowledge. Without full understanding of basic knowledge such as words pronunciation and spelling, you’ll find it very difficult to learn more.

Setting proper targets is a good way to encourage yourself. You could set yourself a time limit or aim for a certain level.

Once you have mastered the bases of the language, learn to apply them to the things that you’re interested in. In this way you are more likely to remember the words, phrases and grammatical constructions you meet.

You will find that at times you’re making rapid progress, while sometimes you seem to stand still or even go backwards. This is normal when learning a language, so don’t be discouraged.

Making mistakes in a foreign language is nothing to worry about. What matters is getting your message across, not whether you use all the right words, tenses, cases, etc. If you cannot think of the exact words, try using other ones.

1.What is the best time plan for studying a foreign language ?

A．A long period every day.                  B．Several short periods every day.

C．A long period once a week.                D．Several short periods a week.

2.The break between periods of study shouldn’t be too long, because ___________.

A．you will be unable to go over a lesson for several times

B．you will be too tired to continue your study

C．you will waste a lot of time for study

D．you will forget what you are trying to learn easily

3.If you don’t fully understand the basic knowledge, you will ____________.

A．be unable to go on with your study          B．be uncomfortable with yourself

C．feel it very difficult to learn more           D．stop learning more in a short time

4.According to the author, which of the following is NOT true ?

A．Setting a goal can help you make rapid progress.

B．you should use what you’ve learned frequently to remember them.

C．Sometimes you may not make any progress.

D．Mistakes are quite normal in learning a language.

5.The purpose of this passage is ____________.

A．to give some advice on foreign language learning

B．to help students get high marks in foreign language exam

C．to encourage more people to learn foreign languages

D．to comfort those who don’t learn foreign languages well
