    How can you make researching online as easy and effective as possible? Before you begin your research, make a list of the kinds of sites that are best for your topic. Is the website reliable and up to date? {#blank#}2{#/blank#}  Government sites ending in . gov and educational sites ending in .edu usually are safe bets. Established news-related sites are OK, too, but be sure that you're using the original source. If a newspaper article mentions another source, like an organization or website, go directly to that source to find the information.

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}They can be good resources, but it's always best to check with your teacher to make sure he or she considers the site appropriate. Wikipedia. Org is popular and ranks highly in search results, but it can be edited by anyone, whether a person has accurate knowledge of the topic or not. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

D. Sites ending in .org are usually run by non-profit organizations.

G. If it does, it may be biased(有偏见的), since it's trying to sell a product

    Nowadays more and more Chinese parents invest large sums of money to send their children to study abroad. With countless difficulties to face and solve while studying abroad, overseas students should pay attention to the following things.

    Adjust mental attitudes. Experts consider psychological preparation as the most important thing for students studying abroad to consider.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    Negative thoughts we have about ourselves can destroy our spirits. Many of us have problems with negative thoughts.

    Picture the good things

    If you want to change the negative tapes playing in your heads, you have to imagine yourself positively that means judging yourself right. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}. How would that look? Draw it in your mind and expand it.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    You may talk to yourself with statements like "if only" or "what if". The former keeps reminding you of the past with regret, while the latter keeps you fearful of the future. There is nothing you can do about the past and the future isn't here yet.

    Develop positive views

    Instead of always putting yourself down in your head, think of some things you actually like about yourself. Tell yourself " I am able. I'm good at it." instead of saying "I'm not good enough", {#blank#}5{#/blank#}.

    Babies have the charm to melt anybody's heart instantly; no one escapes the twinkling eyes or the innocent smile. Just their presence will cheer you up, make you forget your worries and tempt you to indulge into their world.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}Though I don't have any answer to the question, I wonder as to what makes their aura so desirable. And I think there is something we can learn from the young ones.

    Forgive and Forget

    Babies can laugh and giggle all day because they don't keep hatred against anyone.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Do you think they've constructed an evil plan against you because you refused them candy last time? Probably not, life moved on and so did they. So why do we hold on to our past and refuse to let go of the emotional baggage? Does it do us any good except prevent us from laughing to the fullest?

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Endless questions of young kids can sometimes be enough to drain the adult mind. They are always busy wondering how things work or why things are the way they are, leaving no room for boredom. Their curiosity gives them an exponential learning curve; they pick up new things quickly and do not refuse to change.

    Unconditional Love

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}They don't judge you before they come running into your knees and they don't walk away if you don't give them the same in return. They have no expectations from you and simply do what their heart desires. If you want a hug, they'll give you a hug; if you want two, they'll give you two. So how does the adult world become so materialistic that we decide what we give based on what we think we might receive?

    Living life to the fullest is not a difficult task; you just need to have the right attitude and an open mind.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}

A. Keep smile every day

B. Never-ending Curiosity

C. What can we do to free from these worries?

D. Why do we adore the young ones so much?

E. So don't envy the peaceful life of a baby, start living it yourself!

F. Kids have a hug and a kiss for anyone and everyone who wants one.

G. Their heart is pure and their mind empty to laugh out loud and enjoy the moment.

    Friendships can bring joy or sorrow.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}, we talked to researchers, authors, and therapists to learn how to manage the common relationship difficulties we all face.

    Broken promises

    Friends are vital for our physical and mental well-being but these relationships aren't always smooth sailing. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. And a major way this happens is through broken promises. Perhaps he canceled plans at the last minute or she declined to take part in an important party. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}, the first thing to do is remember that no one is perfect, says Jan Yager, PhD, friendship coach.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}

    "Sometimes jealousy reveals our deepest desires," says Dr. Yager. "Healthy envy can motivate you to become better and be inspired by your friend's success," she says. She points out that it could be the other way around as well: Your friends might be jealous of you.

    Feeling left out

    There's no worse feeling than when you check Facebook Monday morning to find out that your friends went on a weekend getaway without you. Scott Christnelly, a therapist, says, "I encourage clients to express their feelings about it but also not to jump to conclusions." Then find someone else to talk to — maybe a family member, or a close friend (not one who went on the trip)—to explain how you feel. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}Look to see if the story you are reading is on other news sites that you know and trust. If you do find it on many other sites, then it probably isn't fake, as many big news organizations try to check their sources before they publish a story.
