【题目】Six things we’ll regret in 10 years

Time slips away in life, and behind all those things we are busying doing all day long, we often miss the most important things. 1. In the following passage there are 6 things we are likely to regret in the future, as well as pieces of advice on how to avoid it.

Spent little time with family

In the cycle of work and home duties, many of us pay very little attention to our families. Unfortunately, we often understand this when some of them are not there around us.

2

We ruin our health when we give in to junk food and bad habits. Even our health seems to be ok now; after a while we will most likely feel the consequences of such an irresponsible attitude to our body.

Spent little time traveling

3. But we are always afraid of discomfort, we are afraid of being in strange places, and we always have more urgent things to do.

Worked too much

Most people do so because they want to earn more or they desire a higher position. However, it’s clear that work is important, but to relax from time to time is of importance too.

Stopped learning new things

Maybe you Mom always says this to you, “Learn a foreign language. You will need it in the future.” You may think you want to be an engineer, so a foreign language seems useless.4.

Had a job you hate

We often continue to work in a place we hate, only because we are unwilling to leave the comfort comfort zone.5, we can simply fade away in a job we are not interested in.

So when the sun is warm,

when the breeze is gentle,

when the flowers are flourishing,

when you are young,

live the way you like, enjoy the time you are studying or working, and try to be the best of you!

A. Few of us don’t dream about traveling

B. However, constant learning brings not only more opportunities for professional growth but also an increase in self-confidence, making you an interesting person to others

C. Yet if we don’t change the situation

D. It may take years to understand this.

E. Led an unhealthy life

F. The desire to travel with comfort stop people from doing this very often

G. True, it’s good if you know even one foreign language

Before science became professionalized in the 19th century, 1 naturalists were collecting information and helping us understand the natural world. A 2009 study found that nearly 50% of UK 2 feed wild birds. The National Trust has more than 5 million members, and 60,000 active volunteers helping to protect the countryside as well as historic 3. Now, with our environment arguably under greater threat than ever and species declining at a(n) 4 rate, volunteers are once again at the forefront of efforts to limit the damage.

Volunteers and enthusiasts can be powerful drivers for big changes. On the Isle of Man, more than 8,000 people (nearly 10% of the population) are involved in regular weekend beach cleans. At one recent event, 123 volunteers turned up and removed 183 bags of litter in just a couple of hours. Thanks to 5 such as this, the island shares Unesco biosphere reserve status with the Galápagos, Yellowstone in the US, Uluru in Australia, and hundreds of other sites.

Recreational divers are making a real difference underwater too. They monitor the spread of 6 species, and record how native species respond. Divers also 7 levels of marine litter and other human impacts. Volunteer divers have played an important role in collecting information about marine conservation zones. Volunteers have also made a vital contribution to the conservation of basking sharks. The work of a citizen science Basking Shark Project in the 1980s and 90s was 8 in getting these sharks on the protected species list in the UK, while satellite tagging 9 the first recorded transatlantic crossing by a basking shark.

Volunteers and enthusiasts can be powerful drivers for big changes. No one can know better, or care more about, our most special places than the people who live in them and give up their free time to look after them. As a group of divers and 10 residents who lived on the shores of the bay, they took their campaign on to national and international stages and continue to inspire people who might otherwise feel powerless when faced with threats to the places that matter to them.
