Being Well-Organized And Getting Things Done
Being well-organized and getting things done and what we have done is tried to make them as easy to follow as possible to allow you to implement(实施) them immediately. There is no doubt that being organized does make a difference.
1
It is something that you should do every single day and the best way to approach this is to place things in order of importance. Watching that movie may sound like a good idea, but put that at the bottom of the list and focus on things that influence your work, health, or anything else that is key to your survival(生存).
2
Next, you should consider trying to plan ahead, so if you know that there is an appointment at a certain location for a certain time, then plan your day around that appointment.
3
Knowing where everything is really will allow you to get more things done as you will waste less time hunting for that object that you require to complete your task. Too much time is wasted hunting for keys or that piece of paper and it also just stresses you out and can upset your pace.
4
Giving tasks to others will always lead to you getting more done, but it is not just a case of picking anybody to do a task. Instead, you need to make sure that they are capable of doing it without running into any problems and that they do have the correct tools to complete the job.
5
Having a schedule will help to force you into completing tasks on time and actually getting more done in the process. The only problem here is that you need to be sensible when working out how long something takes or you will put undue pressure on yourself and this is where mistakes can occur and you will actually then start to get less done.

Question: I’m 15 and I’ve been having trouble sleeping at night. It usually takes me 2 to 4 hours to get to sleep. 1 I can’t focus on my lessons at school. Please help me!
Answer: If you are a person who doesn’t regularly get a good night’s sleep, you are not alone. 2 Here are some tips for helping you get a good night’s sleep.
⊙Keep regular hours
By keeping regular hours your body and mind know what is coming up and can start to prepare for you to sleep. 3 If you can’t go to bed at a regular time, then make sure you get up at a regular time. So after a late night you wake up tired, and it forces you to go to bed earlier.
⊙ 4
I know, you hear this about everything from heart health to losing weight, but exercise really does do you a world of good. However, don’t do it too close to going to sleep. It is better to do it about an hour after dinner.
⊙Relax before going to bed
5 In fact, when you lie down to go to sleep, your mind is going to be thinking about the programs you have been watching. Instead, take just 20 or 30 minutes before bed to read or sit, anything that gets you to slow down and gives your mind a rest!
A. Take some exercise.
B. And I usually get about 4 or 5 hours’ sleep in a day.
C. It also means you can get in regular number of hours each night.
D. Many people suffer from sleep problems.
E. You may think that watching TV before you go to bed is a good way to relax.
C
Without a friend,the world is like a desert. Too many people want others to be their friends,but they don’t give friendship back. 1 To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning the following rules.
2 Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the truth, people usually find out,and you may lose your friend’s trust. Good friends always trust in one another to speak and do things honestly.
Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to give your lunch money or your clothes,of course. 3 These can be valuable to a friend. They tell your friends what is important to you. By sharing them,you help your friends know you better.
Everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. 4 Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s place, so you can understand the problem better.
No two friendships are ever exactly similar. 5 In fact, good friendship will just not easily last. That is to say, you must give as much as you take, or friendship will die away.
A. Keep your friend’s feelings in mind.
B. Instead you share your ideas and feelings.
C. Something may go wrong at school.
D. That is one of the causes why some friendships don’t last very long.
E. One way to do this is to be honest with a friend.
F. But all true friendships have three things in common.
G. Honesty is where a good friendship starts.

Seeing blood in a horror movie might make you cover your eyes, but real blood isn’t scary at all. 66 That’s why blood donors are considered lifesavers.
Blood donors are those giving blood --- usually about 200ml at a time --- to blood banks or blood donation ( 捐 赠 ) centers. 67 For example, someone may have lost blood in accidents, or have a serious illness that requires his blood to be replaced. Hospitals and blood banks store the blood and try to keep enough on hand.
68 Medical workers ask donors several questions to make sure the blood is safe to use. Then the donors relax, often reading a magazine or talking as their blood is drawn. Afterward, the donors may receive some juice or water and maybe fruit to give them energy. The process is simple, not scary. 69 To give blood, a person must be at least 18 years old and must meet certain other requirements.
Students of all ages, though, can learn more about the donation process by visiting a local blood donation center. 70 It is also an easy way to help a community.

To figure this out, scientists added color patterns to pictures of faces that showed no facial expressions. ___74___They were able to tell the emotions 75 percent of the time without any difficulty.____75____ For example, when two people are heatedly arguing over something, we say they are red in the face.
