But no one is perfect. If you can learn from mistakes correctly, they can move you forward. If you have made mistakes that harm other people, it is important to offer a sincere apology in person. A good apology(道歉) will probably make the other person forgive(原谅) you. If you refuse to apologize, the person hurt by you will hold it against you. If you are living a life being afraid to make mistakes, you will spend most of your life doing nothing. There is no harm in making mistakes. It is an essential part of going forward. The more duties you take, the more mistakes you will probably make. Unluckily, it is natural to justify(为.辩解). When you make a mistake you will first complain about someone else. When mistakes are made, the boss wont fancy your justifications. Sometimes it is best to say very simply-yes I made a mistake. Mistakes happen for different reasons. To avoid repeating them, you need to understand the main reason for example. You may have made a mistake by saying some unkind words. If you make mistakes, because youre tired, try to get more sleep. If you are stressed, look for ways to relax and stay away from the stress of work. You should avoid feeling guilty about making mistakes, but at the same time, you should make a decision to learn from them. If you repeat the same mistakes, it shows you arent making progress and they cause repeating suffering. Often mistakes are caused by bad habits. To avoid making the same mistakes, you need to break bad habits. The sooner, the better. 1.

In fact, about 50 percent of people are shy. Almost 80percent of people feel shy at some point in their lives. Now scientists have some interesting ideas about why people are shy. Scientists say f15 to 20 percent of babies behave shyly. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists believe some shyness is genetic(遗传的). Family size may be another factor. Scientists at Harvard University found 66 percent of shy children had older brothers and sisters. These children were often bullied by their brothers and sisters. Therefore, they became shy. However, children with no brothers or sisters can be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. Its hard for them to develop social skills as children from big families. You may also be sad because of your birthplace. In Japan, most people are shy. But in Israel, only one third of people are. Why? One scientist says they treat failure differently. In Japan, when people fail they blame themselves. In Israel, people often blame other things, such as family, friends, or bad luck. For some people, it can be difficult to make friends, speaking class, and even get a good job. But scientists say you can overcome your shyness. They suggest trying new things and talking with others more.1. How many people feel shy at some point in their lives? A 80 percent of people. B 50 percent of people.C 15-20 percent of people.

When I worked with him, he would always want to talk. I would say out of breath, “Dad, I cant talk and walk at the same time if we go this fast.” So, it was quite a shock to us when dad developed a heart disease and was sent to hospital, a few months before turning 80. We were all sad that “Mr. Health had been taken down by the illness, but lying in bed, he was all smiling and cheerful. I remember sitting at the kitchen table with him. “Dad,” I asked |”why are you still so happy?” He smiled and said to me, “Im happy Im still here! Im living on borrowed time.” Dad mostly kept his optimistic attitude throughout his later years. Whenever I called and asked him how he was feeling, he would answer, “so far, so good. Im still here!” In the past couple of years, this changed to a very strong voice. “Im fine!” Dad really loved his 90th birthday party and he could not stop talking about his 100th birthday party that he was sure to have. But, the most important lessons he taught my brothers and me were that seeing the goodness in people, fighting for the weak. Even when watching sports he would always tell me he was cheering for the poor team. He strongly encouraged us to stand up for what is right. These values were so important to Dad that they guided most of his decisions throughout his life.

Most teenagers need about 8 to 9 hours of sleep each night. But about 1 in 4 teenagers have trouble in sleeping. When our body doesnt have enough hours to rest, we may feel tired or crazy, or we may be unable to think clearly. A school task thats normally easy may let you feel impossible to finish, or we may feel it hard to play our favorite sport or instrument. So how can we get enough sleep we need?Here are some tips: Be active during the day. For example, the little kids do much running in the day and most of them can sleep well at night. Do sports for at least 60 minutes a day. Many studies have told us physical activity can help people feel more relaxed to fall asleep. But dont exercise too close to bedtime. Avoid alcohol and medicines. Lots of people think that alcohol or medicines will help them relaxed, but thats not right. Alcohol or medicines increase a persons chance of waking up in the middle of the night.Keep a sleep routine. Go to bed at the same time every night. It helps the body expect to sleep. So before going to bed every night, you can do some reading, listening to music, spend time with a pet, keep a diary or doing anything to relax yourself. Expect a good nights sleep.
