Each time you choose to trust yourself and take action, you can never quite be certain how the situation will 36Sometimes you are victorious, and sometimes you become disappointed. The 37experiments, however, are no less valuable than the experiments that finally prove successful; in fact, you38 learn more from your failures than you do from your 39 . If you have made what you think to be a mistake or failed to live up to your own 40 you will most likely put up a barrier between your essence and the part of you that is the alleged (F 7/fikJ) wrong-doer.However, viewing past actions as 41 implies guilt and blame, and it is not possible to learn anything meaning while you are engaged in blaming. _,42 forgiveness is required when you are severely judging yourself. Forgiveness is the act of erasing an 43 debt. There are four kinds of forgiveness.The first is beginner forgiveness for yourself.The second of forgiveness is beginner forgiveness for another.The third kind of forgiveness is 44 forgiveness of yourself. This is for serious misbehaviors, the ones you carry with deep 45 . When you do something that violates your own values and principles, you create a gap between your standards and your actual 46In such a case, you need to work very hard at 47 yourself for these deeds so that you can close this gap. This does not 48 that you should rush to forgive yourself or shouldnt feel regret, 49 taking pleasure in these feelings for a prolonged period of time is not healthy.The 50and perhaps most difficult one is the advanced forgiveness of another.At some time of our life, you may have been severely wronged or hurt by another person to such a degree that forgiveness seems 51However, harboring anger and revenge fantasies only keeps you 52 in victimhood.

On average, Mac users lay out US$20-30 more per night on hotels and go for more stars. according to the Wall Street Journal. As a result, online travel sites show these users more expensive travel options first. To avoid inadvertently paying more, sort results by price.2.Their software doesnt always hook up to the hotels system.A guaranteed reservation is almost impossible to come by anywhere but the risk of your flight or hotel being overbooked increases with third-party providers. The middle-mans software isnt immune to system errors, so always call the hotel or airline to make sure your booking was processed.3.Dont be fooled by packages: Often, theyre low-end items grouped together.Ever notice how travel sites recommend a hotel, a rental car, and tour package all in one click? These deals usually feature travel that no one wants, like flights with multiple layovers.Check the fine print.4.You could miss out on loyalty points.Third-party providers can get between you and frequent flyer miles or points. Many hotel loyalty programmes dont recognise external sites, others award only minimum points and exclude special offers, like double points on hotel stays.5.Once your trip is purchased, youre on your own.An online travel agency cant provide assistance the same way an agent can if a flight is cancelled or a room is substandard. Basically, when you arrive at the airport or hotel, youre just another client who booked at the lowest rate.56.Which ofthe following is TRUE?A.Third-party providers can ensure your reservation. B. Mac users are likely to spend more money than PC users.C.An online travel agency functions the same as an agent.D.Packages usually provide travelers with satisfactory programmes.57.Whats the purpose of the passage?A.To encourage readers to book a trip on an online travel site.B. To make an advertisement about several travel sites online.C. To convince readers not to book a trip on an online travel site.D.To warn readers of some problems with booking trips online.BWant to add some hours to your day? Ok, you probably cant change the fabric of time. But a new study suggests that the way you feel about your goal can change your concept of time and that some simple strategies could make you feel less rushed.In a series of experiments, Jordan Etkin, a professor of marketing at Duke, and her co-authors, Loannis Evangelidis and Jennifer Aaker, looked at what happens when people see their goals as conflicting with one another. In one, they asked some participants to list two of their goals that they felt were in conflict, and others simply to list two of their goals. Those who were forced to think about conflicting aims felt more time pressure than those who werent. In another experiment, the researchers gave participants a similar prompt regarding goal conflict, but this time measured their anxiety levels as well as their attitudes toward time. They found that participants who thought about conflicting goals had more anxiety than those who didnt, and that this, in turn, led to feelings of being short on time.Stress and anxiety and time pressure are closely linked concepts, D. Etkin explained. When we feel more stress and anxiety in relation to our personal goals, that manifests as a sense of having less time.Technological advances that allow people to do lots of things at once may increase the feeling of goal conflict, she said.I think the easier it is for us to try to deal with a lot of these things at the same time, She saidthe more opportunity there is for us to feel this conflict between our goals.She isnt the first to suggest that actual busyness isnt the only thing that can make us Feel busy At the Atlantic, Derek Thompson wrote that as a country, were working less than we did in the 1960s and 1980s. He offered a number of possible reasons some Americans still feel so overworked, including the fluidness ffl) of work and leisure. As he put it:The idea that work begins and ends at the office is wrong. On the one hand, flexibility is nice, On the other, mixing work and leisure together creates an always-on expectation that makes it hard for white-collar workers to escape the shadow of work responsibilities.And Brigid Schulte writes in her 2014 book Overwhelmed: How to Work, Love, and Play When No One Has the Time that some researchers believe time has no sharp edges. What often matters more than the activity were doing at a moment in time, they have found, is how we feel about it.Our concept of time is indeed,our reality.”Fortunately, Dr. Etkin and her team did find ways of making us feel better about timeor, at least, of reducing the negative influence of goal conflict. When participants performed a breathing exercise that reduced their anxiety, the impact of such conflict on their perception of time was less pronounced. Reframing anxiety as excitement (by reading the phrase I am excited! aloud several times) had a similar effect.Breathing and reframing may not solve everyones time problemsMs. Schulte writes that some Americans are indeed working more than they used to. She cites the work of the sociologists Michael Hout and Caroline Hanley, who have found that working parents combined put in 13 more hours a week on the job in 2000 than they did in 1970. Thats 676 hours of additionally paid work a year for a family. And thats on top of all the unpaid hours spent caring for children and keeping the house together. Sometimes, we may feel short on time because we actually are. However, Dr. Etkin believes her findings suggest we may have the ability to influence our experience of time more than we think we do.Were all going to have times in our lives when our goals seem to be
