Everyone wants to become a better person. Here are some suggestions for you!
    36     “Becoming a better person” is a process that you will be likely to spend the rest of your life on, so accept the fact that it’s going to take long to become a better person. There isn’t one specific (具体的) moment when you will finally make it.
    37     Consider how you face stress, how you deal with loss, how you man age your anger and how you treat your loved ones. You have to understand how you are now before you learn how to grow.
    38     Make the goal as specific as possible. Instead of saying “I’d like to be a better friend”, break the goal down into parts. What do you mean by that? Do you mean reaching out to others more often? Do you mean making yourself available to spend time with your family and friends?
    39     Put the changes down on paper, or it’s better to keep a diary. This will help open up some more self-examination, and allow you to better understand yourself.
    40     Role models are a great source of inspiration, and their stories can make us feel strong when life is hard. You might choose a player or an artist, or you might choose someone close to you.

A．Make a special list

B．Set a goal for yourself

C．Think about your behavior at present

D．Try to find a role model

E．Accept that it is a process

F．Write down changes to self-examine

In the world, a five-day work week is common. However, in some places, people are exploring the idea of paying workers the same for working just four days a week. Some companies have been slow to try it. The results of last year’s experiment suggested the move may be good for both companies and workers.

Last June, 61 UK companies agreed to try giving their workers a four-day work week. They asked their workers to do as much as they usually did in five. The experiment turned out to be good for most companies. The number of days that workers were out sick dropped by 65%. About 57% fewer people left their jobs during the experiment. What’s more, the companies made more money—about 1.4%.

How did workers do more in less time? Some companies cut meetings, or made sure they were shorter. Others used technology to help workers get more done quickly. Some companies created “a focus time” so workers could work on just one thing without being interrupted (打扰).

In general, workers said the four-day work week left them feeling less tired. About 71% said they felt less “burnt out” with their new work hours. About 73% of the workers were more satisfied with the time they spent working. Workers reported that the extra day off allowed them to do more of what they loved.

Professor Brendan Burchell, who helped run the study, said, “A four-day week means a better life for so many people.” At the end of the experiment, 92% of the companies involved (参与) said they planned to keep the four-day work week.

Chemistry is usually thought to be more difficult than other subjects, at least for the beginners. There are some reasons for this idea. For one thing, chemistry has a very specialized vocabulary (学科专用语汇). So studying chemistry is like learning a new language at first. Also, some concepts (概念) of chemistry are hard to understand. But with hard work and careful study, you can finish this subject successfully. （A） Here are some suggestions to help you develop good study habits and better understand the topics in the book:

·Firstly, attend classes on time. Listen to your teacher and take careful notes in class. If possible, always review the topics you learn in class, and review your notes on the same day.
·Secondly, think carefully whether you really understand the meaning of a term or the use of an equation (方程式). A good way to test your understanding is to explain a concept to a classmate or someone else.
·Thirdly, pay attention to things which have something to do with chemistry in life. Watch or do experiments in class carefully.
·Fourthly, question often and do not be afraid to ask your teacher or classmates for help.

You will find that chemistry is much more than numbers, formulas (分子式) and equations. （B） Once you fall in love with it, you’ll get lots of fun.
