A decorator has decorated his new house to help his wife in her battle with dementia（癡呆）.

Climbing is my most favourite sport. I am very fond of it, especially in later autumn. One day early in the morning, my friends and I put on my sports shoes and start off. After climbing for half an hour, we got to the top of the mountain. There we had good view miles around. To the north, a big river crossed the city, on which there were many ships sail busily. A lot of beautiful trees was there, too. The sun started to go down, for it was time for us to go back. In the way back, we were laughing and talking all the time. We had a good time on that day.

In the 60s, people asked about your astrological (about star) sign. In the 90s, they want to know your website. 【1】 Your website is an electronic meeting place for your family, friends and potentially, millions of people around the world. Best of all, you may not have to spend a cent. The Web is filled with all kinds of free services and all it takes is some time and creativity.

【2】 Like the table of contents of a book or magazine, the home page is the front door. Your site can have one or more pages, depending on how you design it.

While web pages vary greatly in their design and content, most use a traditional magazine layout(版面設(shè)計). At the top of the page is a banner(橫幅)GRAPHIC. Next comes a greeting and short description of the site. Pictures, text, and links to other websites follow.

【3】 Think about whom the site is for and what you want to say. Next, gather up the material that you want to put on the site.

While there are no rules you have to follow, there are a few things to keep in mind: 【4】 If you want too much at the beginning, you may never get the site off the ground. You can always add to your site.

Less is better. Most people don’t like to read a lot of long texts online. 【5】

Smaller is better. Since it can take a long time to download large files, keep the file sizes small.

Have the rights. Don’t pt any material on your site unless you are sure you can do it legally. Always remember to get the permission from the writer first.

Now it’s time to roll up your sleeves and start building.

A. Start simply.

B. Break it into small pieces.

C. Draw a rough layout on a sheet of paper.

D. Many websites are considered very interesting.

E. Before you start building your site, do some planning.

F. Think of your home page as the starting point of your website.

G. These days, having a web address is almost as important as a street address.

In a recent airing of "Unsolved Mysteries", there was a young boy who was the victim of the holocaust(大屠殺).He'd been in a work camp for several years and somehow had managed to survive the of his imprisonment.

The story was of a boy - now in his sixties - and his quest to find an American soldier who had a kindness to him by some food. It might seem ,but to this child, who had seen nothing but and inhumanity for as long as he could remember, it was a that marked a turning point in his life, for he had lost hope .When he was liberated by the American forces, he was dying. He, needed food. As he was staggering along the road a young soldier down from his tank and gave him some of his supplies. With this one act of generosity, a kind American had aroused the again that there really was some good in the world. And the boy never it. The boy later went to America, raised a family, became successful and worked hard to repay the he had received with his own.

Actually there were so many similar acts of generosity that it would be almost impossible to know for sure who the soldier was.

We all have a choice: to create more light in the world. As Confucius it over 2500 years ago, "It is better to light one small candle than to the darkness."

As the story above so nicely small gestures can often generate huge blessings. If we're constantly looking for and doing kind acts, we will no doubt bring more joy into the world around us as well as into our own world!

Five Ways to Instantly Rid Yourself of Needless Worry

A while back, I had a great day and everything was going exactly as I wanted．I was meeting tons of new people and everything was amazing．I felt like I've accomplished a lot．Then suddenly, like an unexpected swift jab, someone made a small remark about me．I felt hurt and the worry began flowing in．Over the years, I've developed belief systems that help me get rid of these worries．I want to share these with you．

【1】______ It just isn't possible to get everyone to like you．Trust me, I've tried．This only leads to disappointment on a daily basis, since you can't possibly live up to the entire world's expectations．Here's a new goal for you instead if you really want to get rid of worry and unhappiness from your life．Focus on what you think of yourself．Who cares what that stranger thinks? If you're happy with who you are and you know what weaknesses you should fix then forget about the world．Life is bigger than trying to look awesome; life is about actually being awesome．

【2】______ The first thing I ask myself is, will this negative thought affect me in the future at all? Is it going to decrease my quality of life somehow? More often than not, it's just something I'll soon forget about anyway．So I put myself into the future by a couple of days and imagine myself．In this vision, I realize that I won't be bothered by something so small and I most likely wouldn't even remember it．A lot of times, just the idea of it fleeting away very soon is enough for me to block out these disturbances．

【3】______ When I feel like I'm inadequate based on the need for approval from others, I begin to do some self-reflect on my achievements．I think about how much I've improved in the past year．I've met amazing people, developed active listening skills, and started something I've been thinking about for the past two years．Looking further back, I transformed from a socially awkward kid to a socially lively and confident person．All thanks to mental skills that I consciously yield．I was blessed with true fortunes that others do not have; I was blessed with the gift of self-improvement．

【4】_______ Write anywhere you can, whether it's in a blog, in your journal, or on a post-it note that you can throw dramatically into the ocean．Get those worries out onto paper．Look at it, assess its importance, then tear it, burn it, or throw it into the ocean like I just said．You can then look back at that paper you just destroyed and laugh at how ridiculous you were being．Who cares if that lady looked at you strangely? Who cares that someone may have noticed stains on your new white sneakers? Write all of that, then destroy it．

【5】_____ Finally, just reflect on how short life is; focus on how life is constantly fleeting．Do you really want to spend what little time you have on this beautiful earth worrying about something you won't even remember by next week? Don't be silly, get out there and enjoy life．You've got it pretty good, I'd bet．Don't waste it on needless worry．
