We do some strange things when we don’t like the way our life is going.Too often we blame(责怪)someone else.‘‘I wish my parents were more understanding.”
“I have such a bad Chemistry teacher!”
“My friends are so boring and self-centered.They make my life worse and worse.’’
Blame! Blame! Blame!
It seems natural to sing this self-pitying song,but the truth is,if you don’t like your life,you should do something about it.No one else knows exactly how you feel or what you need.No one can read your mind correctly.You are the only one with the power to check your life,and if you want it to be different,you can change what you’re doing.
When you’re in trouble,don’t give away your power to decide how you feel about yourself. Choose how you want to think and act.Other people can’t make you unhappy or angry.They only act in their own way and then it’s up to you to decide how you will respond(回应).For example,your friends go out to lunch without you and you feel very angry.How are you going to act? You may blame your friends,“They are not kind.Who needs them anyway?” Or you may tell your friends how you feel,listen to their explanation,and let them know you’d like to be invited next time.
When you decide everything in your own way,you’re getting hold of your own life and shaping(塑造)it according to your tastes and feelings.You can choose to be happy,to make friends and to build an interesting life.When you blame others for what is or isn’t happening in your life,you have stopped growing or learning.
One of the most important rules is that you can never change another person by your direct action.The only person you have the right to change is yourself.Once you change,the other person has something different to respond to and change is possible.If you want change in your life,begin with yourself.
1.What should we do if we don’t like our life?

When I walk through the streets, I pass strange rooms where people are doing strange things. Some are biking madly. Others are holding metal bars to keep them from dropping down. Still others are jumping around while someone is shouting at them. It looks like something out of Dante’s Inferno (但丁《神曲》中的《地狱篇》). But what is the most amazing is that people pay for these sufferings!
The strange rooms are gyms. It is reported that some 41 million Americans are gym members. 12% of the memberships are born in January, as they are determined to knock off (使减少) the holiday fat. Maybe it is good to exercise in the gym. However, should they know they can keep in good shape, spending little money, would they still agree with its necessity?
At the age of 23, I joined a gym. I lifted weights twice a week in Muscle’s Gym. I paid as little as $200 per year. You can’t find such gyms in every city any more. Too often, the gym is fancy (花哨的) with lots of equipment. If you ask how much it costs to join it, the person at the front desk often won’t tell you straight. Instead, he’ll let you meet with a fitness consultant (健身顾问), who will provide you with a great number of reasons and suggestions, such as losing weight and getting healthier, just in order to put pressure on you to spend much money joining the gym and becoming a member there.
Working out with the help of equipment at home has problems, too. In the early 2000’s, I bought a spinning bike at a cost of $700 for home use. I tried a few times only to find that it brought me a neck problem.
Now I’m back to my old way. I do Yoga(瑜伽)every morning and evening. Total cost: $60 for an exercise mat (垫子) . I’m enjoying fitness.
1.The strange rooms are places where people _________.
A. do strange things B. suffer from great pains
C. play Dante’s Inferno D. take physical exercise
2.In the author’s opinion, joining a gym nowadays is __________.
A. exciting B. inexpensive C. unnecessary D. helpful
3.The author wrote something about Muscle’s Gym to __________.
A. tell us he was fat when he was young
B. suggest a new way of losing weight
C. provide us with an example of gyms
D. compare it with the gyms of today
4.From the text we can infer that _________.
A. many Americans put on weight after Christmas and New Year’s Day
B. the author and his family had spent a lot of money exercising in gyms
C. 12% of the American people are members of gyms
D. spinning bikes are good equipment for exercise

To make our digestive (消化的) system work well, we should avoid doing some things after having a meal, for example, drinking water. It is true that a person should drink 8 glasses of water every day to stay healthy. However, drinking water right after eating or even during a meal may disrupt (扰乱) digestion. It might affect the natural levels of acid and bile (酸和胆汁) that are necessary for proper digestion. What’s more, drinking cold water after eating might slow down digestion. So try to avoid drinking water at least an hour after a meal, and avoid drinking it while eating.
Though walking after eating is healthy, doing it immediately after a meal is not. Doing so will make it difficult for the digestive system to take in nutrients (营养) from the food. Besides, the blood will flow towards other parts of the body, like legs, hands, etc., which will make the digestive tract not have enough amount of blood flow that is needed for proper digestion. So we should wait for at least 2 hours after eating, and then begin exercising.
Sleeping should also be avoided right after eating. This is because going to bed right after a meal will lead to improper digestion. What’s more, such a habit will also make you put on a lot of weight. Therefore, wait for an hour or two, and then go to sleep.
Many of us have the habit of drinking tea just after lunch or dinner, which is really unhealthy. The tea leaves contain a large amount of acid which prevents the protein in the food from digesting. The best time to drink tea is at least one hour after eating.
Eating fruits right after a meal may fill the stomach with air and cause discomfort. They will also take time to reach the digestive tract, disturbing the entire process of digestion. To protect your stomach from digestive problems, eat fruits before or after 1-2 hours of a meal.
In a word, if you avoid doing all the above things after eating, you will surely make your digestion easy, and you will be less likely to have digestive problems.
Things to avoid immediately after eating | |
Drinking water | ● Drinking water immediately after eating or during a meal may disrupt digestion by 1.______ the natural levels of acid and bile. ● Drinking cold water after eating probably reduces the2.______ of digestion. ● Don’t drink water until at least an hour has passed after a meal. |

When we do something, we all have our own plans. Some people are born planners. I can’t claim (宣称) to be one of that kind of people. Most of the time, I try to at least expect what might go wrong. I have taken to making lists and, although I’m not yet achieving perfection, I usually manage to achieve goals. But there are times when even the best plans do not succeed. All that is left then is to smile and to make or do something using whatever is found.
Hanukkah (光明节) came early this year, perhaps too soon after Thanksgiving to allow us to prepare well. During the first night of Hanukkah, the Hanukkah candles were nowhere to be found in the entire Dallas area where we lived. Birthday candles wouldn’t work! The tall long thin candle fell in small drops. “What would our ancestors do?” I thought. “What shall I do now? That’s where ingenuity comes from. Don’t be nervous and worried. Never let missing candles spoil a family celebration.” Later what we did find was a bag of tea lights. The long, silver bread tray became the base for our tea lights. The younger ones were wide-eyed and happy as Grandpa lit the first tea light and all recited the blessing. We sat at the dining table, happy to be together and the food was plentiful.
No matter how imperfect it is, the fact that families gather to share a special event, an event that has held meaning for so many generations of families, is the meaning itself and forms the important part of the observance (仪式). What we need to remember, and to carry with us, is the knowledge that togetherness is much better than all other concerns.
