Accept human nature. Humans make mistakes. People aren’ t always nice. They also have all of the problems that you have in your life. 【1】 This is important to remember when you’ re trying to get along with people who are very difficult or seem to be ignoring you; everyone is just doing the best that they can.

【2】 People are all very different: that’ s what makes life interesting. And just like people are all different, the world is also very complex. Every situation is different, always. Just because someone doesn’ t make the choice that you would make or just because they take a less efficient or smart path to get where they’re going doesn’t make them wrong.

Practice forgiveness. Forgive people when they do make mistakes. Sometimes you just have to stop and give people the benefit of the doubt ( to believe someone even though you are not sure whether what the person is saying is true). They might really be sorry or they might really not know that what they did was bad. 【3】

Keep an open mind. Sometimes you have to give people the benefit of the doubt. 【4】 For example, when people invite you to parties, really consider going instead of just brushing the invitation aside because you don’ t think they’re serious.

Do something together. 【5】 You can work together on a project for school or work. You can also try a new activity together. These activities will give you more to talk about and lots of chances to interact and get to know each other.

A. Think about what your words really say.

B. Respect that there are lots of valid choices.

C. Everyone is dealing with their own set of problems.

D. Doing things together is a great way to bond with people and make friends.

E. You have to forgive them so that you can move on to happier feelings.

F. You might think that they hate you but they might be honestly trying to be nice to you.

G. Even when someone’ s making you mad, thank them for their effort to help or their suggestions.

Dear Mr White,

I heard that you are planning to invite for a famous scientist to give us a speech, so I’m writing to ask whether we can have a speech giving by Professor Martin Karplus.

Born in March 15, 1930, Professor Martin Karplus is a Austrian-born American theoretical chemist. She works as a professor of chemistry at Harvard University.

I have two reasons asking for him to give us a speech. One is that the Karplus equation is named after him, but the other is that he receives the 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, together with two other colleagues.

Thank you for read my letter. I hope you can consider my suggestion serious.

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua

The way most of us spend our mornings is exactly opposite to the conditions that promote flexible,open-minded thinking. Imaginative ideas are most likely to come to us when we’re unfocused. If you are one of those energetic morning people, your most inventive time comes in the early evening when you are relaxed. Sleepy people’s lack of focus leads to an increase in creative problem solving. By not giving yourself time to tune into your wandering mind, you’re missing out on the surprising solutions it may offer. The trip you take to work doesn’t help, either. The stress slows down the speed with which signals travel between neurons(神經(jīng)細(xì)胞)，making inspirations less likely to occur. And while we all should read a lot about what’s going on in the world，it would not make you feel good for sure, so put that news website or newspaper aside until after the day’s work is done.

So what would our mornings look like if we wanted to start them with a full capacity for creative problem solving? We’d set the alarm a few minutes early and lie awake in bed，following our thoughts where they lead. We'd stand a little longer under the warm water of the shower，stopping thinking about tasks in favor of a few more minutes of relaxation. We’d take some deep breaths on our way to work, instead of complaining about heavy traffic. And once in the office —we’d click on links not to the news of the day but to the funniest videos the web has to offer.

So far, the Internet 【10】 (create) thousands of millionaires all over the world, but Berners-Lee is not one of them.

A US teenager criticized（批評(píng)）on social media for wearing a 【1】 (tradition) Chinese dress to her high school prom（畢業(yè)舞會(huì)）defended her decision and has won support from netizens（網(wǎng)民）in China.

Keziah Daum, 18, 【2】 high school senior in Utah, faced a strong reaction from thousands online, some of whom accused her of “cultural appropriation（文化挪用）” after she posted four prom pictures on Twitter on April 22 that featured her wearing a qipao, a body-hugging one-piece Chinese dress for 【3】 (woman). “I 【4】 (praise) by the many people from China who have both reached out to me and have posted to social media their viewpoints. I thank them 【5】 the moral support regarding my decision 【6】 (wear) a qipao,” Daum told China Daily in an email on Tuesday. “I 【7】 (sincere) thank the outpouring of support I have received from the people of China.” Daum stood by her choice to wear the dress, 【8】 was red and orange with gold-and-black embroidery（刺繡）. She said on Twitter that she will not take down the original post. “The dress 【9】 (catch) my eye at first because of 【10】 (it) beauty,” she said. “I was also so happy to find a dress with a modest neckline. It is very hard to find dresses in America for prom which cover a women’s neckline.”

But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.

Children often need a helping hand from mom and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity., by giving wild time a go”.

So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted”.

This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made you think about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and relieving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!
