When someone you care about has suffered a serious health event or is dealing with a life-threatening illness, it can be difficult to know what to say or do.     1     How can you best offer your support? These tips can help:

Offer your support. Your friend or loved one may be unwilling to ask for help, but it’s support from people like you that can make all the difference in their recovery. Offer to help with a specific task, even if it’s simply to sit with them during or after treatment.     2    

Listen. When you talk to someone with a serious illness, it’s natural to feel awkward or not know what to say.     3     Allow them to express what they’re going through without judging them.

    4     The more you know about your loved one’s diagnosis (诊断) and treatment, the better prepared you’ll be to help. But that doesn’t mean you should tell the person what they should or shouldn’t do, unless they specifically ask for your opinion or want to know what you’ve researched. Treatment decisions are finally always up to your loved one, so be supportive even if you don’t always agree.

Stay connected.     5     You can’t just provide support at the time of diagnosis and then let your attention go. Your support can be just as important after treatment as it is before.

A.Encourage your loved one to keep calm.
B.Some illnesses can involve long-term treatment.
C.But often what really counts is to listen to the person.
D.Educate yourself about the illness but don’t give advice.
E.All you need to do is to present your determined attitude.
F.Your loved one is likely to experience some painful feelings.
G.Sometimes, the most important thing you can do is to be there.

【推荐1】How to remember your passwords

Remembering and then forgetting your passwords can be a frustrating business, and one that contributes to more than half of calls made to helplines.     1       Once you have reset your password, you’re going to need to remember that one too. Follow our tips on breaking the password-frustration cycle.

    2    

We often create so many user IDs but there are only a small number of passwords that you really need to remember. It’s important for you to remember your banking and email passwords, but do you really need to worry about your occasional eBay visit? If you can commit(交付) just a few to memory, you can hand the rest over to a password keeper to do the remembering for you.

Sign up for a password keeping service

    3     You just need to encrypt(加密) your data and keep it in a safe server. Many password keepers require you to remember just one master password, which will give you access to the accounts you have chosen.

Write them down

“Just keep them in a safe place, such as a locked box,” says Internet security blogger Bruce Schneider.     4     Thus, it isn’ t entirely discouraged and can be an efficient back-up plan when all else fails.

Work on your memory

    5     Practicing memory techniques or making certain lifestyle changes, including reducing stress, might just prevent you from having to make that frustrating password phone call ever again.

A.Download a mobile password app.
B.Of course, it doesn’t just stop there.
C.Try to make a note of your passwords.
D.Work out which passwords matter most.
E.Put your money into different accounts.
F.It will remember your passwords for you.
G.Many exercises can help improve your memory.

【推荐2】How to Deal with a Friendship Breakup

In an ideal world you would grow old with the people you grow up with, but sometimes it doesn’t happen that way. For various reasons, you may find yourself having to be the one to end the relationship with your best friend. To me, it’s hands down harder than the ending of a romantic connection.    1    

Feel those feelings.

You may find yourself going to call or text that person just from habit. When things happen—good or bad, it will take some time to remember this person is no longer accessible to you, which may bring sadness, hurt, anger, confusion, etc.    2    The breakup with your best friend won’t be any different.

    3    

If you were the one “dumped(抛弃)”, how could you have been a better friend? Pay attention to the things that caused your relationship to end, and then do the work to save it or prevent other friendships from going down the same road.

Delete and block.

It’s attractive to see what’s happening in someone’s life, especially someone who has been a large part of your life for so long.    4    The delete and block buttons are your greatest assets(资产).

    5    It can take weeks or years to adapt to life changing circumstances. But I have found, that as you accept things for what they are, there is an overwhelming sense of peace that eventually washes over you.

A.There is no timeline on grief.
B.Suddenly there is a change in your schedule.
C.Decide why you want to break it off.
D.So how exactly do you grieve(悲伤) or move past “the other breakup”?
E.Reflect on your contributions to the ending of your relationship.
F.All those feelings are natural when a relationship of any kind ends.
G.But until you’re healed, removing them from social media platforms is necessary.

文章大意:本文为一篇说明文,介绍了如何识别并避免消耗我们情感能量的情况,包括无意义的争论、说闲话、反复忧虑和渴望得到认可等。

【推荐3】Emotional energy is a relatively new term to describe our vitality (活力).     1     If we feel that some situations drain (耗尽) us, then it’s because they take away all our vitality in matters that are insignificant, but ones that do require effort. They’re situations that only distract us from what’s truly important, and from the things that enrich us. Let’s learn to identify them and avoid them.

Arguments about insignificant issues

A debate is a great opportunity to present your own points of view and learn from other’s opinions. However, something very different happens when two people get into a pointless argument.     2    

Gossip

    3    . This sort of curiosity is no more than a sign of a lack of identity. Whoever gossips about others looks for themselves in other people. The thing is, they just can’t find themselves.

Worrying over and over again

One of the situations that drain our emotional energy is unstoppable doubt. This is when we think and think but only come up with “ifs” and “buts”. We try to find the right answer or make the right decision just by reflection.     4    

Need for approval

We’re constantly trying to get other people’s approval.     5     Instead of investing time to explore who we are, whether others like us or not, we just spend our time doing things that other people want us to do. Generally, people either accept you or they don’t, and sometimes for reasons that are completely beyond your control.

A.We spend so much time worrying about things that it blurs our vision of life.
B.The only purpose of it is to “beat the other person”, and express their own points of view.
C.By doing this we’re just cheating ourselves.
D.Vitality is the strength that we have before tiredness sets in.
E.We go on and on about the same problem, without actually doing anything to solve it.
F.Sticking our noses into other’s private lives, instead of our own, drains our emotional energy.
G.However, we forget that many answers come only when we combine thought and action.
