Criticism can be divided into two types. 【小题1】_____ This is the type of criticism that can be the most hurtful. Parents might express their disapproval of your choice in career, friends or lifestyle. People may criticize how you dress or the way you act. It can be terribly unpleasant to tolerate it.
The second type of criticism involves pointing out your weaknesses and mistakes. No one is perfect, yet many imperfect people seem to find it extremely easy to “let us know” when we mess up. 【小题2】 _____And the fact that they are telling us what we already know makes it much more annoying.
When people express their disapproval of some area of your life you first need to consider how you feel about it. You need to be secure in who you are and the decisions that you make.【小题3】____
Remember that there is a difference between being firm in your choices and being stubborn. Don’t be stubborn. Be mature enough to truly hear what they are saying, even if you don’t agree with it at first. 【小题4】_____If not, just let it go and trust that they meant well, but what they were saying is not for you. Don’t be mad at them.

B.You may come to realize that they have a good view of things and are right. |

【小题1】. She described all the things she had to do --- one was to make her bed --- from the moment she woke up until she flew out of the door for work. I suggested she experiment by not making her bed for two weeks. She was shocked, probably thinking I’d been raised by wolves in a forest. 【小题2】
Two weeks later she went into my office beaming. She had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 years --- and nothing bad had happened. “And you know what?” she said. ”I don’t dry my dishes anymore, either. ”
【小题3】 One was discovering that she had choices in her life that she had never seen before. The other was giving herself permission to be less that perfect. This story shows an important principle about managing time: No one can do it all. Each of us has to make choices and accept trade-offs. The problem is, many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health last. They take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves. 【小题4】
So what is the solution? There’s an easy way. Decide what you want in your life, and put that first. On a daily basis, that should include regular meals, enough sleep and time with your family. Exercise, leisure, friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life. 【小题5】. The choice is yours: whatever makes you feel good about yourself and your life. Take a nap. Take a walk. Take time to play the piano. Stop bringing your briefcase home from the office. Stop keeping your house as clean as your mother kept hers. Fill more of your time with want-to-dos instead of have-to-dos.
A.This woman had made two major breakthroughs. |
B.Above all, you needn’t do anything for yourself regularly. |
C.They put everyone else’s needs ahead of their own. |
D.However, she went along with my idea. |

How an unbelievable scene! A modern young couple were eating fruit in public and had thrown a plenty of waste on the ground. When an old cleaner came to clean up, the man was very angry. He points at the cleaner, saying in a loud voice,” How impolite ! They haven’t finished eating ! ” “How could people behave such badly ?” I thought. Obvious, in their eyes, they could do all that they liked and ignore other’s feelings. In my opinion, we should pay attention our behavior, obey public rules and respect other people’s work. We should know that civilized people are those who has good manners but a beautiful mind all the time.
