How to Make the Most of Your Time
Time management is important in our daily life.There never seems to be enough hours in the day to accomplish all you need to do.Here are some tips that might be of some help to you.
1.Set up a plan.Go for a week at a time, and prioritize the most important ones.Include things you want to accomplish.Focus mostly on the things that are important to you.
2.Control your stress.No matter what kind of pressure mounts on you, try to keep cool.Stressing out can lead to an early breakdown, which is definitely counter-productive (事与愿违) when you have a list of things to do.It's easier to take a 10-minute break and cool off than work all week with built up stress.
3.Shut your door.When working under a schedule, perform your important tasks with your door shut to get them done.This will ensure a better quality time to get what needs to be done, done.
4.Focus on one thing at a time.Forget trying to multi-task! You will lose concentration, and it will take you longer to accomplish what you set out to do.
5.Just say "no." If you are constantly interrupted, and you really don't have the time to help out, just say "no." You're only one person, and you can't save the world by yourself!
6.Stop wasting time on the phone.While talking on the phone, keep your conversations short, and to the point and you'll waste much less time.
7.Be realistic.You can only do what you can do.Don't set out to accomplish the impossible.Do your best, but keep realistic expectations of yourself.
8.Relax.The most important thing is remember to take time to relax, and regroup.You need a break every now and then to keep working efficiently.Even if it's a 10-minute walk, get away from your list and get refreshed.
As families today get busier and busier, it's important to your own mental health to keep things on track.Don't delay; get your life in order now.

[1]It’s a fine line parents walk as they try to guide their kids into adulthood.You want to protect but not treat too kindly,advise but not control and let them live their own lives—with some input,of course.
[2]When your child asks for help or advice,give only what was asked for.If your Child asks you to tie a particular hard-to-tie knot(绳结)for a project she is working on,just tie the knot.Don’t start helping with the rest of the project or making suggestions on how to do it.She wants to do it herself,in her own way.Befor which your child has not askd for,count to ten.Perhaps in those seconds you’ll decide that the advice would do no good,or isn’t really that important,and you’ll drop it.If the advice still seems important,you will give it,but the pause may lead you to give it in a more thoughtful way.
[3]Remember that your child is not you and is not a reflection of you.We mak a serious mistake if we try to shape our children into copies of ourselves,or if we think of them as extensions or reflections of ourselves.We need to help them to be them,not try to turn them into us or into something that we think will make us look good.
[4]Our primary responsibility to our children is not that of telling them moment-to-moment or day-to-day how to behave but providing them with a healthy environment in which to develop.For example,one of the best ways you can help your kids is to work with your community to create safe-enough outdoor places to play in your neighborhood.

We’re surrounded by chemistry in everyday life. Sometimes it is easy to see, like when your science teacher does a big experiment in class. At other times, it can be pretty hard to see everyday chemistry at work, but nearly everything you touch or use has some element of chemistry in it.
Something as simple as toothpaste contains at least three chemicals, if not more. It is the mixture of them and its chemical reaction that keeps your teeth clean. Other things you use every day are created by chemistry, such as hair products, shampoo and soap. Adding detergent (洗涤剂) to water involves chemistry. Without chemistry, we would never have known that we need soap to get the oil out of clothes or skin. Chemistry not only helps us make products for use, but it also helps us understand the world around us. Chemistry helps us understand what the ozone layer (臭氧层) is and how it protects us. Chemistry also gives us sunscreen to protect us from the sun. Thanks to chemistry, we know bleach (漂白剂) can’t be mixed with vinegar(醋), because it can produce poisonous gas.Without chemistry, we wouldn’t have fireworks displays on important days.
Chemistry plays a big role in food preparation. Cooking food causes it to go through a chemical change. That is why cooked food often tastes different from raw food. Baking is a great example of chemistry. Too much or too little of any ingredient(成分,尤指烹饪) makes a difference to the result of baking, for example, the dough (面团) won’t rise or the cake will be flat.
Chemistry isn’t something that just lives in a lab; it’s something that you meet hundreds of times every day. Knowing how chemistry works will give you a greater understanding of the science behind some of the simplest-looking things.
