Learning something new every day has many benefits. Rather than filling your brain with information all at once, try taking it slow.
Find your interests. Don’t think of increasing your knowledge as a big task. Keep it fun by considering what you would want to learn new information about.
Use available (可得到的) resources. A few accessible ways to get new information are to set aside some time daily to read books, listen to a podcast, or watch YouTube videos on your topic of interest.
Try multitasking (多任务化). The time you set aside to exercise or do washing doesn’t have to take the place of learning something new.
Turn to your connections.

F.Instead, try putting the two into one part of your day. |
G.People around you are adding to their knowledge daily just like you. |
Setting aside for a rainy day
It’s a common regret in life that we spend more than we save---money that could go into a savings account or into a pension. Whatever age you are, it’ s never too late to start thinking about saving for your future. Here are several ways to get you going.
It’s hard to know what you can afford to save if you don’t have an accurate budget, so doing this is a key first step. Once you’ve made a record of everything you spend each month and everything you earn, you’ll be able to see how much money you have left.
Get into a regular habit
There are different places you can put your savings, from tax-free ISAs(Individual Saving Accounts) to high-interest current accounts. Wherever you choose, keep an eye on the interest rate. Many have high rates for the first year and drop down afterwards.

Does your mood change with the seasons?
Some people find that when the temperature goes down, so do their spirits.
Here are some ways you can beat the winter blues:
Get out in the sun. Some experts say that winter blues happen because we get less sunlight in the winter than we do in other seasons. Some say that the decrease in sunlight can make us feel sad.
Get some exercise. A walk or other exercise will make chemicals called endorphins (内啡肽) flow through your body. Endorphins are natural “feel good” chemicals.
Avoid holiday stress. Cut back if you have too many things to do. Make sure you have some quiet time to yourself.
Get help. Be cautious if you feel sad all the time and the feeling won’t go away.
Talk to an adult who you trust or get help from a doctor.

C.Don’t be so busy that you get tired. |

F.Getting extra sunlight each day can help brighten your mood. |
G.A regular pattern of sleep is the most important thing to keep. |
