Research shows that we spend one-third to one-half of our waking life not living in the present. ___16___ Our brains transport us to past events, imagined future scenes and other internal thoughts.

This allows for introspection (内省) — the space to imagine, remember, reflect and then use these fantasies to solve problems, innovate and create. But introspection can sometimes lead to more harm than good. ___17___ When we focus inward to work through our problems, we may find that doing so causes us to feel worse. Negative thought cycles like this can make our capacity for introspection feel more like a curse than a blessing.

The fact that introspection is both a helpful tool and destructive force is a great contradiction of the human mind. Fortunately, science has begun to explain why this happens, and how to control it.

___18___ This fires up our emotions to the degree of rejecting alternative ways of thinking about the issue that might cool us down. In other words, we lose insight. One natural solution to this problem is to zoom out — to “step back” from your problems so you can think about them more objectively. ___19___ However, not just any conversation will do. The key is to focus on talking to people who not only allow you to express your emotions but also help broaden your horizons.

Introspection is central to the makeup of the human mind. The challenge is to minimize the negative aspects while achieving its potential. ___20___

A. But it can be wonderful to live in the past.

B. We naturally separate from the here and now.

C. It might contribute to anxiety and depression.

D. Another way to gain insight is to talk to others.

E. Regulating negative emotions also helps to reason wisely.

F. Negative thought cycles occur when we zoom in too close on our problems.

G. Being aware of how our minds work can help us make the best of introspection.

The vast majority of parents expect their children to grow up to be healthy, happy, and productive members of society. ____36____ If we don’t give parenting everything we’ve got, our kids will wind up unemployed, living in our basements, and there will be no one to blame but ourselves. That’s what I like to call the “perfect parent myth”.

The standards of perfection for parents these days are extremely high. Perfect parenting expectations begin with a drug free natural birth. Once our young are born we must breastfeed each baby for years. If we can’t breasted, we must at least feed on demand. ____37____ Let’s also not forget to organize our children’s days so they are engaged in educational pursuits in case they fall behind the curve (弯道). We must be involved in every aspect of our children’s schools. There is no free time for the perfect parent. ____38____

These standards are unreasonable. They’re also crazy. Parents can’t be perfect. Why? Because we’re human and so are our children. ____39____ They are predictable and when they are unruly we can shut them down. Parenting is nothing like that.

____40____ But, by the parent being less than perfect, the child will need to adapt and develop skills to overcome little disappointments. There is flexibility and room for real-life mistakes and limitations to our parenting abilities.

A. We must make our own baby food.

B. They are pushing themselves too far.

C. Robots would be much easier to parent.

D. There is only unlimited devotion to our children.

E. A good enough parent meets the needs of their children.

F. Parents have no enough time to live up to these high standards.

G. To meet those goals, parents are told that they must spare no effort.

Bringing in and engaging diverse people in your organization requires awareness and preparation. When employees don't feel included, they're less engaged and productive. ____11____ That's why some leaders are concluding that what they've been doing isn't working.

Four Ideas for Better Sleep

Most teens need 8 to 10 hours of sleep each night. But many teens have trouble sleeping. Lack of sleep can affect everything from our emotions to how well we focus on tasks like driving. ___16___ And it may be linked to weight gain in some people. How can we get the sleep we need? Here are some ideas:

Be active during the day.

You've probably noticed how much running around little kids do — and how soundly they sleep. ___17___ Physical activity can decrease stress and help people feel more relaxed. Just don't work out too close to bedtime because exercise can wake you up before it slows you down.

Say goodnight to your telephone or TV.

___18___ If you can't make your bedroom a tech-free area, at least shut everything down an hour or more before lights out. Nothing says, "Wake up, something's going on!" like the noise of a text of a phone.

Keep a sleep routine (规律).

___19___ Creating a set bedtime routine can improve this relaxation effect. So relax yourself every night by reading, listening to music, spending time with a pet, writing in a journal, or doing anything else that relaxes you.

___20___

Stress can cause sleeplessness, so the more you suffer from not sleeping, the greater the risk you'll lie awake staring at the ceiling. Instead of worrying that you won't sleep, remind yourself that you can. Say, "Tonight, I will sleep well" several times during the day. It can also help to practice breathing exercises before bed.

A. Expect a good night's sleep.

B. You may wake up in the middle of the night.

C. Experts recommend using the bedroom for sleep only.

D. The more you try to fall asleep, the more difficultly you can.

E. Learn from a kid and get at least 60 minutes of exercise a day.

F. Going to bed at the same time every night helps the body expect sleep.

G. It can affect sports performance, and increase our chances of getting sick.

How to Plan a HolidayTrip

Each year, millions of people gather their bags and set out on a holiday trip. Whether it’s to grandma’s house, a family reunion or simply a holiday getaway, these yearly trips can often be the source of dread and stress. The thought of being trapped in the car with restless children along the way or the possibility of costly flights is enough to make anyone consider staying home. ____16____

Plan out the route for your car trip. If you’re planning on driving to your holiday destination, a little planning can help make your trip easy and uneventful. ____17____ Remember, it’s likely that you won’t be the only person on the road during the holidays, and traffic is always a factor. Alternate routes or shortcuts can help reduce time spent in traffic jams and get you to your destination sooner. This information can also come in handy in case of road construction or other situations that might block your primary route.

____18____ Although traveling by air instead of car can be much more expensive, it can be quicker and more convenient. Start planning your trip early to take advantage of advance purchase discounts and avoid sold out flights. Many airlines become extremely busy during the holidays so booking in advance can also help ensure that you get the flights that you want. High traffic destinations such as New York, Los Angeles or Atlanta can be extremely crowded during the holidays. ____19____

Consider your luggage needs. If you’re traveling by car, the issue of luggage is only important with regards to the amount of room needed. Before you begin packing, think about how many people will be in your vehicle and how much room they will need to travel comfortably. This could affect the number of bags that you can take along. ____20____ Not only is the possibility of lost luggage an issue, but most airlines now charge extra for checked baggage.

A. Book airline tickets in advance.

BPlan your trip to avoid peak travel times.

C. Luckily, with a little planning, these situations can be avoided.

D. As an alternative to driving or flying, check into the possibility of traveling by train.

E. For traveling by air, the number of bags that you take is a much bigger concern.

F. Consider your starting point and desired destination, and investigate several possible routes.

G. If possible, consider booking your flight to a nearby airport and renting a car for the short drive to your destination.

Talking to someone on a train, bus, or subway can be risky yet exciting, as you never know when they're going to get off. Here are some useful tips.

Make eye contact. Making brief eye contact can show the person that you're interested and help you judge whether they are interested in you. ____16____ If they look away quickly or appear disinterested, it's probably best not to approach.

____17____ If the person looks at you once more, this is a good sign that they notice you and want to interact with you. When making eye contact, keep your facial expression light and friendly, rather than straight and serious.

Smile at them. If you are successful, smile at the person. A small but genuine smile makes you appear interested, friendly, and approachable. If the other person smiles back, you’re likely in luck in getting them to talk to you.

Use open body language. ____18____ Do this by keeping your arms uncrossed. Stand or sit up straight and show good posture (姿势).

____19____ Once you’ve read the other person to see if they’re interested in conversing (交谈), make a move. If you're far away, move closer. You should keep a comfortable distance where you can hear each other yet not feel awkward if the conversation doesn't work out. Find a seat near them, yet don't crowd them.

If they're standing, stand near enough to them to be able to speak with them, but don't get too close for comfort. If there's a seat next to them, ask, “May I sit here?" Try not to be nervous. Many people are just as excited to chat with new people as you are. If they engage, then keep it up! ____20____

A Notice how they respond.

B. Approach the person to start talking to them.

C. As you can see, your body language speaks for itself.
