Sometimes,even the best friends have fights. They disagree with each other and begin to argue. Sometimes,they even stop talking to each other.
What can be done to help the two friends make up? Finding a good friend who knows both of them very well to be a peacemaker is a good way. Maybe one day you will be a peacemaker for your good friends. Here are some useful communication strategies for you to use:
& State your feelings clearly but don't criticize them. Begin with "I feel. . . " instead of "You always...”
Don't stop or finish the other person's sentences.
Listen carefully to what the other person is saying. Try to see the other person's side of the disagreement.
Look at the other person in the eyes when you are talking.
Ask questions to make sure that you understand the other person.
Repeat the other person's ideas as you understand them.
Never put anyone down. Saying things like "You're stupid" makes communication difficult.
Try to find a solution that makes the two friends happy. Never decide who is right and who is wrong. Instead,help them to find their own "winwin" solution. A "winwin" solution allows each of them to feel good. In this way,their friendship can be continued.

Look through the keyhole when you hear the doorbell. If there are strangers,ask " Who's that?" with the door locked,and say "Come back later". Don't tell them that your parents are away.

Is there someone you hate? Well,maybe you don't really hate them,but you get really angry every time you think of them. If you don't let this anger go,it can turn into bitterness (痛苦) .
Bitterness appears when we can't forgive (原谅) someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. And instead of resolving (化解) the anger,we keep it deep inside. Before long,a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we're hurting that person by criticizing (指责) him or her often,but we're really only hurting ourselves.
Bitterness can not only lead to serious health problems such as heart disease,but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one enjoys getting along with an angry person for long.
If you see bitterness in your life,here are some ways to deal with it.
* Accept It Instead of trying to deny your anger,make it clear to yourself and accept it. Face your anger and quickly deal with it.
. Stop Making Excuses for It You may feel you have a right to be angry. You may think you're right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end,bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back,and the other person will go on with his or her life. Forgive and Forget It You probably can't completely put the anger out of your mind. But you can decide to try right now and forgive the other person. Forget it and move on. You'll enjoy better health and peace of mind.

Can plants eat people? Probably not,but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big,and they can eat small animals. One famous meateating plant is Venus Flytrap (捕蝇草) .
Venus Flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves,there are three small hairs. If a fly touches one of the hairs,the leaf closes quickly so the fly cannot get out. In about half an hour,the leaf presses the fly until it is dead.
