12、make you both happier and more effective in fulfilling your responsibilities at work and home. In practice, it rarely happens, though. For some, thats because deep down they feet they dont deserve it. For others, its simply that busy life makes it seem impossible to press pause. Either way, making s

13、ure you actually get a. moment to yourself requires a shift in perspective.Dont wait until it feels right. Its unpleasant to have unfinished tasks bothering at your mind, so its tempting to tell yourself youll only relax once everything is under control. But since both work and family life generate

14、an infinite number of to-dos, that strategy is doomed to failure.

But if the truth is that you dont, youll only get resentful: we rebel against being told what to do, even when the person doing the telling is ourselves. Make sure at

16、least a small part of your week is spent doing something you can honestly say you enjoy for itself.Pay attention to good feelings. Once you do get some restorative time, borrow a Buddhist technique for making it count: when you realize youre enjoying yourself, spend half a minute consciously paying

17、attention to the feelings of pleasure. For one thing, youll often find that those feelings increase as a result. For another, youll encode the memory of the experience in more detail so, looking back, itll feel like you had even more time to yourself.1、Why is it hard for some people to find time for

20、on the environment have become more obvious in recent years, leading to a movement to promote energy efficiency (效率), less reliance on fossil (化石的) fuels and a reduction in air and water pollution. Most scientists agree that such changes are necessary to protect our environment from further harm.The

21、 construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution. In the United States, building and development account for 39 percent of the countrys total energy use, 12 percent of total water consumption, 68 percent of total electricity consumption

22、and 38 percent of carbon dioxide emissions (排放), according to the Environment Protection Agency.Green buildings use less energy, water, create less waste and are healthier to live, work and go to school in than standard buildings.

Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less energy and fewer materials and improve indoor air quality, improving the health of people who live there.The process of building green inc

25、ludes technical and artistic planning with nature conservation in mind. Building designs often reflect the surrounding environment and natural resources and use renewable building materials such as bamboo and straw.

For example, placing a structure in an area that allows it to take advantage of cool breezes (微风) and sunlight can redu

27、ce energy use and expenses. More energy and expense are needed for larger buildings as well, so it is important to build small.Green roofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and cost. These roofs are partially or completely covered with plants, which helps to keep heating and

28、 cooling costs low, prevent water running off and deal with pollutants.Other features of green buildings often include energy and water conservation, recycling and waste reduction.

34、equent storms between March and July.

The power of a

35、big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season.Even then, storm chasing is not al

36、l adventure and excitement . “Storm chasing is 95% driving,” says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. “Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers.”However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. “

Even surgeons with years of experience are not infallible. But what if these doctors could pool their knowledge and experience

41、 together and create a surgical standard of care, to be carried out by machines?Thats the idea behind surgical robots, which may soon perform most surgeries, from sewing up tiny wounds to performing heart procedures. Many of these operations are, in fact, already completed with the assistance of rob

43、surgery with soft-tissue surgery, and when compared to standard operation, its better, says Peter Kim, professor of surgery.

44、ting on the wrong site or side of the body, or even leaving tools or objects inside the patient-occur every one out of 22, 000 procedures.

45、 their hands to control the movement of robotic tools on the operating table from afar. The robots every major move is controlled by surgeons, and thus its results may vary based on the surgeons training or experience.STAR, on the other hand, is entirely autonomous. Its not only able to work on its

46、own and perform surgeries with a more flexible hand, but its able to react to the unexpected incidents. Cutting into hard tissue like bones is one thing, but operating on moving soft tissue is far more complex. STAR reacts to a changing environment, similar to how self-driving cars are programmed to
