Mistakes are unavoidable in life. But attitudes towards it may make a difference.

I still remember how my spoken English was improved. In a beginning, I always kept silent in our oral class to avoid make mistakes. Before long my teacher got to know about my situation. He encouraged me to speak out that I thought. Whenever I made mistakes and felt discouraging, my teacher and my classmates would help me figure out how I must have avoided them. I also joined in an English club to get more chances to speak. Practice made perfect. Now I can talk fluent in English.

Just as the saying goes, “Every bean has its black.” Don’t afraid of making mistakes. Learn from mistakes, and success is just waiting for us.

For thousands of years, doctors 【1】 (recognize) that childbirth can have a big effect on a woman’s mind and body. Many women experience a time of sadness 【2】 they give birth to a baby. This is called the baby blues, or postnatal depression.

Doctors do not know the exact cause of postnatal depression. But they believe that an imbalance of brain chemicals 【3】 (be) probably the cause. Hormones are 【4】 (nature) body chemicals. They affect a person’s emotions. Immediately after pregnancy, a woman’s hormone 【5】 (level) change a lot. So, a woman’s emotions and ways of thinking also change a lot.

Other brain chemicals also influence the way a person feels. They 【6】 (physical) affect the brain. They make a person feel depressed. There are ways to fix and balance these brain chemicals.

Some medicines, 【7】 (call) anti-depressants, can help to treat postnatal depression. But these medicines may cost a lot of money. And not all people can get them. However, there are ways that women may be able to treat and recover from these sicknesses without medicine.

If you are a new mother 【8】 (suffer) from the baby blues or postnatal depression you should know that you are not alone. Other women have had 【9】 same experiences. They have lived to have happy and healthy lives. If you are a husband, friend, or family member of a new mother, you should know that you can help! You can support the new mother. You can share the information 【10】 her. You can help her find hope.

Few people, these days would disagree with the theory that it’s vital to take time for yourself. Creating some space for enjoyment and restoration each day or at least every week, is a win-win proposition. It’ll make you both happier and more effective in fulfilling your responsibilities at work and home. 【1】. Here are some useful suggestions.

Don’t wait until it feels right. 【2】, so you want to tell yourself that you’ll only relax once everything is under control. But since both work and family life generate an infinite number of to-dos, that strategy is doomed (注定要失敗的). As time-management writer Laura Vanderkam points out, it’s far more useful to learn to tolerate the discomfort of knowing your email inbox is filling up, or that the living room is still a pigsty.

【3】. It’s all too easy to fill ‘me time’ with things you think you should enjoy, above all exercise. If you genuinely love such activities, they’re perfect. But if the truth is that you don’t, you’ll only get angry. 【4】, even when the person doing the telling is ourselves. Make sure at least a small part of your week is spent doing something you can honestly say you enjoy for itself.

Pay attention to good feelings. Once you do get some restorative time, borrow a Buddhist technique for making it count: when you realize you’re enjoying yourself, spend half a minute consciously paying attention to the feelings of pleasure. 【5】.

Even though he was staring down death. Gene had one thing on his mind: that lawn If the sod wasn’t put down that day, it would die. “While he was having his heart attack, literally in and out of consciousness, he kept begging me to have it put down because he didn’t want it to go to waste,” Melissa wrote in a Facebook post.

Soon Pasco County Fire Rescue arrived and took Gene and Melissa to the hospital, leaving Rouco behind to tackle the yard. Within an hour, he had managed to remove the old grass. He was about to lay the new sod, which he feared would take him well into the night, when two emergency vehicles appeared. Seven men--the same ones who had treated his brother--got out. Gene had told them how badly he’d wanted to get the sod down, so they had returned to help. The job was done in under two hours.

Meanwhile, Gene had surgery to insert stents (支架) in his heart, alleviating a potentially deadly blockage. He’s home now, fully recovered--and enjoying his beautiful lawn.

The Works are still amazed that those EMTs (Emergency medical technician) went above and beyond their job description. “These men,” Melissa told tampabay. com, “saved Gene’s life, and then came back to save his grass. That’s just so awesome.”

【1】 Nothing dries out bread faster than your refrigerator. If you make sandwiches with the bread, and then place them in the refrigerator, the cold temperature will make the bread hard like nuts. Besides, the coldness makes the bread become hard at a faster speed.

Coffee. Since ground coffee like coffee beans require cool, dry and dark spots to keep their taste and freshness, the refrigerator is not a good place for them. Coffee also needs an airtight（密封的）container. But if you have much coffee that you won’t use right away, then you can freeze it. 【2】 This way, you can store it for up to a month.

Tomatoes. 【3】 But putting them in the refrigerator will cause them to lose all of their good taste. Plus, the cold air in the cooler refrigerator stops the ripening（成熟的）process as well. And as we all know, ripening is what gives every tomato more taste. For best results, keep tomatoes out, and inside a basket or a bowl on your counter.

Honey. Make sure that you keep honey in an airtight container. 【4】 Therefore. storing it in your cooler refrigerator doesn’t make sense. Honey is a naturally preserved food so it needs no help from us. Amazingly enough, placing honey in your refrigerator will in fact speed up the sugar crystallization （結(jié)晶）process. 【5】

A. Nuts.

B. Bread.

C. We all love tomatoes for their taste.

D. Just make sure to put the coffee in airtight bags.
