【推荐2】From the amazing fashion shows of Milan in the north and the museums in Florence to ancient ruins in Rome and the beautiful islands of Corsica and Sardinia, Italy is really a wonderful country with much to offer.
Of course, the first thing you might think about is the food. When people talk about Italy, the first thing that comes to mind is pasta. But do you know there are hundreds of different kinds? Also, the names of the pasta can differ from region to region.
While food is an important part of Italian culture, the true heart of the culture is the family unit and the sense of pride in one’s community. For Italians, food and family go together. Mealtime is taken very seriously. Meals are the time for Italians to stay with friends and family to not only enjoy food, but talk and share time with each other.
Another theme of the life in Italy is the siesta — a time when businesses close from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. People can enjoy the afternoon and take a break during the hottest hours of the day. In the evening, many Italians like to take a walk around the town, chatting with friends or maybe drinking a cup of coffee. When temperatures start to warm up, you will notice that the streets become emptier. Every August, many businesses shut down for a month so that families can enjoy the seaside and escape from the heat.
So, if you are looking to experience something different on your next trip, be sure to give Italy a try. It is a place where you can take time to enjoy the small things in life.

【推荐1】Nguyen Tra My, a freshman at a college, wasn’t at her dorm (宿舍) again last weekend, but it was no surprise to her classmates. They all knew she had gone to Thailand to see a concert of her favorite band. Although she knew it was wrong, Nguyen said, “The concert was a one-off!”
Nguyen’s case is not rare. Idolizing a star (追星) has spread widely among Vietnamese youths. Psychological expert La Thi Buoi thought it was natural. “The Internet helps young people get information about their idols, so they spend more time on them,” she said. “But it also means less time on study, or with family and friends. In the long term, it would lead to bad results.”
However, some young people have their own ideas. “Nguyen is a true fan. When talking about her favorite band, she is always full of energy and confidence,” Nguyen’s classmate Trang said. “And her grades don’t go down because of following celebrities.”
Nguyen herself said, “I know how to organize my time. I only spend half an hour online, reading articles about my idols. The rest of my time is spent studying or going out with my friends.”
Nguyen also shared that she became more positive after becoming a fan of the band. “They have worked really hard to get today’s success. They’ve done a lot to help fight COVID-19. They are well worth learning,” Nguyen added. “Their music also cheers me up and helps me to overcome difficulties in life.”
Idolization as a whole is not a bad thing. But, problems usually come up when parents fail to accept their children’s behavior.
Buoi suggested that there is a need for communication between the generations. “Adults should be patient and give more guidance and understanding to young people. They need support from adults.” Buoi also suggested that more cultural and sports programs would encourage youngsters to leave their smart phones and take part in healthier activities.

【推荐2】Most people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, “Happiness depends upon(依靠) ourselves.” In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret(秘密) of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend so much time thinking about the future —for example, getting into college or getting a good job—that we fail to enjoy the present(现在). You should enjoy life’s simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.
Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. Many people experience this, dancing or having sports, such as swimming and playing basketball. You can forget about your problems, and only think about the activity.
Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help do some housework.
