1.______
We all want to buy a new piece of electronic product, spend an expensive night in town, or take a loan for the good-looking care we can’t afford in order to make ourselves happy. You might feel great when you get those things, but later rash(轻率的) spending will hurt you a lot. Because expensive things don’t create lasting happiness and security. Careful spending will bring you great enjoyment in the future.
2._______
Wise investing is also something everyone can work on to live happily. It even can make a big difference when they retire between their 40’s and their 60’s.

He could retire without a drop in income!
3._______
To be happy, we need continuous growth. The best way to grow is life-long education. This doesn’t mean you need to spend 2 hours reading every day. What you need is just to keep an open mind and search for fresh ideas. Education builds over time. You might think that the bits of wisdom you acquire every day don’t mean much, but over the years they will add up to make you a wiser person.
4. ________
The personal relationships we develop with friends and family members are the greatest source of happiness in our lives. Don’t forget them. Taking some time to build and enjoy personal relationships is essential to long-term happiness. No matter how successful you are, you’ll probably be miserable without the people you care about.

If you always feel unhappy and think your life is terrible, try to set a goal which interests you a lot. We can’t control everything in our lives, but working towards a goal gives us something positive to focus on and lays the foundation for the future success.

Traffic Safety Tips
If you are among those who think that traffic safety tips are something that need to be given to children and not adults, you are so very young. Being an adult, it is our responsibility to set a good example for others. Remember when you are driving a car with your teenaged son or daughter sitting next to you, he or she is watching you and observing how you drive. So make sure that you follow all the necessary traffic rules to set a good example. Some of the effective traffic safety tips are mentioned below.
Put Your Seat Belt On
The first thing that you are supposed to do, and make sure that others in the car also do, is to put your seat belt on. In case there is a child in the car between the age of 4 and 8, a booster seat(儿童座椅)should be used as safety belts are not meant for small children and cannot protect them in case of accidents. Kids under the age of 12 should never sit on the front seat.
1.________________
Do you drive, listen to music, eat your sandwich and speak on the phone all at the same time? If you do this, you are not displaying your super powers but allowing multiple things to distract you. Once you are driving, be it alone or with your friends and family, you are responsible for everyone
present in the car. So stop doing other things and focus on driving safe.
2._________________
Teenagers and young adults especially, don’t realize the risks they are putting themselves into. Alcohol influences your mood and mind and may not give you the judgment and control that you need to have when driving safe. Even smoking should be avoided and drugs should not be consumed if you are planning to drive.
3._________________
Driving under pressure with your mind occupied with issues at work or at home would easily allow you to distract your mind off the road leading to an accident. So make sure that you don’t let the things outside your car affect you when you are in the car. Sleep properly and stay relaxed before hitting the road.
4._________________
Your emotions or impatience may make you break the signal at times. Or break the speed limit because you are getting late. Don’t do that! The consequences for that may actually be enough to separate you from your driver’s license on a permanent basis. Make sure you obey the traffic rules and guidelines and do all to be a responsible citizen.
5. _________________
Last but not the least, keep your car in good condition. Make sure you are giving your car for servicing and maintenance on time. Make sure you always check your vehicle tires before hitting the road and don’t run out of gas!
So these were some of the main traffic safety tips that should be followed by one and all in order to stay safe and be an example for others. Remember, rules and regulations are made for your own benefit and safety. So make sure that you obey them. Take care and have a safe ride.
1、2、3、4、5、
Different people have different views on opportunity. 1. Others, however, argue that everybody will have some kind of opportunity during his life.
As far as I am concerned, I agree with the latter opinion. 2. No person will be unlucky enough to have no opportunities all the time, because “every dog has his day”. For another, since opportunities don’t come often, we have to make good preparations and improve ourselves. Opportunities may easily slip away otherwise. 3.
Taking all these factors into consideration, we may safely come to the conclusion that there are quite a few opportunities in our society. Only if we get well prepared can we recognize opportunity, seize opportunity and take full advantage of opportunity. 4.

Five Simple Ways to Increase Your Intelligence
Your brain needs exercise just like a muscle. If you use it often and in the right ways, you will become a more skilled thinker and increase your ability to focus.
Here are 5 simple ways anyone can squeeze a bit more productivity out of the old gray matter.
1. __________-This is a hard sell. People love vegetating in front of the television, myself included more often than I’d like. The problem is watching television doesn’t use your mental capacity OR allow it to recharge. It’s like having the energy sapped out of a muscle without the health benefits of exercise.
When you feel like relaxing, try reading a book instead. If you’re too tired, listen to some music. When you’re with your friends or family, leave the tube off and have a conversation. All of these things use your mind more than television and allow you to relax.
Exercise- I used to think that I'd learn more by not exercising and using the time to read a book instead. But I realized that time spent exercising always leads to greater learning because it improves productivity during the time afterwards. Using your body clears your head and creates a wave of energy. Afterwards, you feel invigorated(精力充沛)and can concentrate more easily.
2. __________-Many people like to read popular suspense fiction, but generally these books aren't mentally stimulating. If you want to improve your thinking and writing ability you should read books that make you focus. Reading a classic novel can change your view of the world and will make you think in more precise, elegant English. Don’t be afraid to look up a word if you don’t know it, and don’t be afraid of dense passages. Take your time, re-read when necessary, and you’ll soon grow accustomed to the author’s style.
3. __________-Nothing makes it harder to concentrate than sleep deprivation. You'll be most rejuvenated if you go to bed early and don’t sleep more than 8 hours. If you stay up late and compensate by sleeping late, you’ll wake up lethargic(无精打采)and have trouble focusing. In my experience the early morning hours are the most tranquil and productive. Waking up early gives you more productive hours and maximizes your mental acuity(敏锐)all day.
If you have the opportunity, take 10-20 minute naps when you are hit with a wave of drowsiness. Anything longer will make you lethargic, but a short nap will refresh you.
4. __________-Often our lives get so hectic that we become overwhelmed without even realizing it. It becomes difficult to concentrate because nagging thoughts keep interrupting. Spending some time alone in reflection gives you a chance to organize your thoughts and prioritize your responsibilities. Afterwards, you’ll have a better understanding of what's important and what isn’t. The unimportant stuff won’t bother you anymore and your mind will feel less encumbered.
Conclusion-I hope you aren’t disappointed that none of the techniques I've proposed are revolutionary. But simple, unexciting answers are often the most valid. The challenge is having the will to adhere to them. If you succeed in following these 5 tips, you’ll be rewarded with increased mental acuity and retention of knowledge.
