The only thing better than a vacation is a well-planned vacation with friends. With careful preparation and good communication, you can ensure that your group will stay enthusiastic through the whole trip.     1    

Choose friends you get along well with. You‟ll be spending a lot of time with your travel companions, so think of people who have similar general travel habits and are flexible and   relaxed.     2     Also consider whether a friend is an early riser or prefers to go to sleep late, and how high-maintenance they tend to be.

    3    Ask your friends to be open about how much you‟re each willing to pay for the trip, between travel, accommodation, food and entertainment costs. You‟ll plan your travel schedule around these loose budget constraints(限制条件).

Plan transportation

Buy plane tickets early to avoid higher prices. Use public transportation if your group is small enough to keep together. Consider renting a car if you‟re traveling with small children or a larger group.

Choose a destination

    4     Since you‟re traveling farther, it‟s best to go with a group that‟s small and easy to keep together, no more than three or four people. If you know your friends would rather lounge by the beach than go walking all over a city, a trip to a tropical destination might be the best choice.

Decide on daytime and nighttime activities

Research popular attractions in your destination and share them with your group.     5     This will allow everyone‟s voice to be heard and ensures that the planners don‟t have to make all the hard decisions.

Now, it‟s time to start getting ready to plan the trip.

A.Ask everyone to tell the planners one or two things they definitely want to do.
B.If you enjoy trips with lots of walking or hiking, consider whether your friends have the similar hobbies.
C.Choose a road trip for a small group that gets along well.
D.Discuss a budget early on.
E.It‟s fine to bring bigger luggage, but they‟ll have to carry all their own bags.
F.Choose your friends, destination and activities wisely and your group will enjoy a fun and memorable holiday.
G.If you want to experience a new culture, try booking a trip to a foreign country.

【推荐1】How to Have a Good Weekend

People are pretty stressed out.     1    . Below are some relaxation tips and a few hints on how to have a good weekend.

    2    . The rules for phone use over the weekend can be helpful. Maybe check your phone for texts or emails only once an hour, instead of all the time. Or turn off push notifications(通知) on your phone when you’re not working. If you want to be really daring, try leaving your phone at home during certain weekend activities, or even leaving it on airplane mode during brunch or a hang with friends.

Try treating your weekend like a mini-vacation.     3    . People who do this stay in bed a little longer, or hug their special someone a little more, or spend a little more time eating and less time on housework and job responsibilities. The weekend-as-vacation mindset helps you be more connected to the present moment.

Beat the “Sunday fears” by planning something fun. A lot of us fall into the trap of saving weekend work we have to complete for Sunday evening, which means the last part of our weekends can be pretty stressful and feel a lot like, well, Monday. To avoid those “Sunday fears,” maybe get those few hours of work done at some other point during the weekend, so that the last thing you do during your weekend can be something actually fun.     4    .

Focus on making new memories, rather than just discussing the workweek again. We should stop viewing it as opportunities to talk about old days, but instead as opportunities to make new memories and learn things about the people you care about that you didn’t know before. Ask questions that go beyond “how was your week?” Maybe ask your friends to tell you a memory of their first date,     5    , or what superhero they’d be and why. Anything is Ok but work.

A.Use your phone as you like
B.This actually changes our behaviors
C.Take some time away from your phone
D.or you quitted the job last week and why
E.But they don’t know how to relax themselves
F.It will make the start of the next week much better
G.or the story of their favorite song and why they love it

【推荐2】Give Your Bedroom the Deep-Clean It Needs

A messy bedroom can add to everyday stress, cause anxiety, and even affect your sleep. A clean, organized sleeping space, on the other hand, helps encourage relaxation and restfulness when you hit the sheets at night.     1    

Take out trash. Begin by taking care of simple, everyday messes.     2    Whether it's from tearing tags off clothing or late-night snacking, small trash can build up easily. Throw away any trash around the room first, then empty the wastebasket.

Clear surface clutter(杂物). Nightstands, dressers,and desks often become drop zones for small daily objects.     3     If you notice a daily habit, such as commonly picking up keys or putting on glasses, consider creating an organization system for these frequently-used items.

Wipe down windows and mirrors. Let the light shine through your windows without any dirty marks disrupting your view. Wipe down all the windows and mirrors in your bedroom.     4    Their tiny fingerprints are probably at the bottom of the mirrors.

    5    A bedroom that's spotless from top to bottom isn't possible without cleaning the floors. If you have hardwood floors, remove and vacuum(真空吸尘)any rugs before sweeping the entire floor. For carpeted bedrooms, clear out the dust with a vacuum. For either method, reach as far under the bed and heavy furniture as you can. If you have a lightweight side table or chair that can he moved easily, put it in the hallway as you clean your floors.

A.Vacuum or sweep.
B.Wipe surfaces clean.
C.Your sheets need to be washed and changed regularly.
D.If you have young kids in the house, be sure to wipe down low.
E.Take a few minutes to put these items back in their rightful homes.
F.If you don't already have a small wastebasket in your room, get one.
G.A few simple housekeeping tasks can create a more inviting bedroom.

【推荐3】Reactions to Disappointment

No one gets through life without experiencing many disappointments.     1     They tend to react to it in negative ways. They feel depressed (意志消沉的) or try to escape their troubles instead of using disappointment as a chance to grow.

One negative reaction to disappointment is depression. For example, Helen, a woman trying to win a promotion(晋升), works hard for over a year in her department.     2     Deeply depressed, Helen loses her love for her job.

    3     Jamal fails to get into the college his brother is attending, the college that was the focus of all his dreams, and decides to escape his disappointment. He covers up his real feelings by giving up on his schoolwork and getting completely busy with friends, parties, and “good times.”

The positive way to react to disappointment is to use it as a chance for growth. This isn’t easy, but it’s the only useful way to deal with an unavoidable part of life.     4     If her boss doesn’t recognize her talent and hard work, perhaps she could move to another department. Or she could ask the boss how to improve her performance so that she would be sure to get the next promotion.     5     Going to another college may encourage him to be his own person, out of his brother’s shadow, and realize that being turned down by one college isn’t a final judgment on his abilities or potential.

Disappointments are unwelcome but regular visitors to everyone’s life. Step over the unwelcome visitor on the doorstep and get on with life.

A.Jamal should look into other schools.
B.Instead, Jamal doesn’t worry about college at all.
C.However, the boss names one of Helen’s co-workers for the spot.
D.Another negative reaction to disappointment is the desire to escape.
E.Strangely, though, most people seem unprepared for disappointment.
F.Helen could have handled her disappointment by looking at other choices.
G.All the other employees tell Helen she is the one who deserves the promotion.
