    Physical health allows students to function even better in classrooms. A good cardiovascular(心血管的) system developing from regular exercise promotes excellent blood and oxygen circulation. This means more nutrients circulate throughout the body which includes the brain. This circulation produces longer attention time during classes allowing longer concentration and better absorption.

     It builds self-esteem

    We all wish we had just a bit more time. Just think what you could do with an extra hour or two each day: you could finally stick to an exercise routine, or spring­clean the house, or write your novel, or learn the guitar and so on.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} But I can help you find more hours in your day for the things that really matter.

    Get Out of Bed Earlier

    If you normally get up at 7：30 a．m., try getting up at 7：00 a．m. That half­hour might not sound like much, but it could be time that you use to exercise, to read that book you've been meaning to finish. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Do the Important Tasks First

    Once you get to work, get the important ones done first (not the easy ones, or even the urgent ones). You can afford to spend at least an hour working on big, important tasks rather than on all those little urgent ones.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#} The urgent tasks will still get done, and you won't miss the important ones.

    Reduce Interruptions

    If colleagues have a habit of hanging around your desk to chat, or if the phone is constantly ringing, you might find that it takes you half the day to finish a simple task like writing a letter. Constant interruptions don't just eat up time, they also break your concentration.

    When you've got a big task to focus on, let your calls go to voicemail. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Wearing headphones makes it less likely that people will try to strike up a conversation.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    A few minutes' chatting, browsing the web, and so on, can easily turn into hours of wasted time over the course of a day.

    When you're working, work. If your concentration is slipping, take a proper break: go and get a glass of water, or stretch your legs a bit. And if you're facing a difficult task, try breaking it into small steps or stages so that it's easier to deal with.

A．Stay Focused on Your Work

B．Take Breaks When Necessary

C．If you have an office door, close it.

D．If you work like this, you'll usually save time.

E．Would you want me to make your day longer?

F．I can't magically make all your days 25 hours long.

G．Or simply to get your day off to a calm and organized start.

    How long could you stand on Antarctic ice before your bare feet froze solid? A minute. Maybe two? If you're an emperor penguin, you can do it for two months in cruel winds at as low as-75 degrees Fahrenheit{#blank#}1{#/blank#}, but their special circulation acts as a kind of antifreeze to keep them warm enough.

    Penguin legs and feet have evolved to lose as little heat as possible. Penguin feet preserve heat by restricting blood flow in really cold weather, keeping foot temperature just above freezing{#blank#}2{#/blank#}.

    Blood vessels to and from the feet are very narrow and woven closely together, cooling the blood from the body on the way to the feet and heating the blood as it returns to the body.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}.

    This special ability is part of how penguins keep their eggs warm until they hatch. Each penguin egg's father balances it on his feet and covers it with his very warm layer of feathered skin to keep it cozy while females are out feeding at sea.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}. If females haven't returned with food by time the chicks hatch, male penguins feed their babies for a few days on a kind of "milk" made from special cells inside their throats.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}Your hands get whiter during freezing weather because there's less blood in them which has been redirected to the central part of your body to make sure vital organs stay warm.

A. Penguin legs work like a heat exchange system

B. Those naked bird feet may look extremely cold

C. Therefore, the male penguins must stay together in groups

D. However, parenting doesn't stop there for these devoted fathers

E. Emperor penguins also have the ability to 'recycle' their own body heat

F. Feet get cool blood so there's less heat to lose, while the body stays warm and comfortable

G. In fact. humans have the ability to restrict blood flow to their hands and feet in cold weather too

    There are some children who love to fly and then there are the kids who are afraid of the unknown. The following tips may help you if you want to travel with your children by plane.

    ●{#blank#}1{#/blank#} If you tell the child he will soon be flying on an airplane and leave it at that, his imagination can turn to fear. Instead, tell him how wonderful it is to fly.

    ●Don't tell children about the dangers of flying. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} And you can promise him that the plane will not crash.

    ●Read a book to your children. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Reading may also make your children fall asleep.

    ●Bring a comfort thing that your child enjoys. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Be sure to bring that blanket along as it will provide a safety net for the child. Having this blanket along may also help him fall asleep. Bring a safe electronic device that shows movies or supports video games, and offers children puzzles.

    ●Bring snacks. Children are picky eaters and may not like the food being offered. Three to five hours can be a long time on an airplane without food. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} When they are upset, it is easier to let fear of the unknown take control.

    ●Does failure really exist? If you believe you have failed, then you have. If you believe you don't have the ability to succeed, then you don't.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}The moment you decide to give up or stop working toward your goals, failure is born.

    ●{#blank#}2{#/blank#}Most people give themselves an out without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the going gets too rough or their energy dies down. Don't do that!{#blank#}3{#/blank#}Never quit, never admit failure, and never lose heart.

    ●Don't believe in a clear finish line for goals. It's a good idea to set a general timeline, but remember that something will be beyond your control.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure! Instead, get a general idea of when you'd like your goal to be completed. Then take it one day at a time and focus on making progress instead of reaching the finish line in as little time as possible.

    ●Be sure that you don't see difficulties as failures. Difficulties mean only one thing: it's not time for your goal to be completed yet. That's it! It doesn't mean you failed; it doesn't mean you're weak; it doesn't mean you'll never achieve your goals.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}You've got to keep moving forward and find a way over, around, or through the difficulties.
