There is an expression “beat the clock”, which means finishing a task quickly in order to meet a deadline. However, many
27、years ago there were no clocks. _34_ Over the centuries, people have developed different ways of telling the time.About 5,500 years ago, the Egyptians invented the sun clock. _35_ Its shadow (影子) showed the movement of the sun. So people were able to know midday. After that, the Egyptians made a sun
28、dial (日晷) about 3,500 years ago. It was smaller and could let people know the time for half a day. And the ancient Chinese also invented the equatorial (赤道的) sundial to tell the time about 3,000 years ago. But on cloudy days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sundia
29、l._36_ The idea is simple. Water flows from one bottle to another. When the water reaches a certain level, it shows the hours. The Egyptians used water clocks about 3,400 years ago. These clocks were popular in the Middle East and China. But they filed to make people know the exact time.In the 13th
30、century, the mechanical (机械的) clock was invented. This was more exact, but it was expensive to make one. Over the next few centuries, it was developed.

31、 and more to run businesses, markets and so on. More recently, in 1956, came the digital clock.

33、oure probably familiar with FOMO. Thats short for “Fear Of Missing Out”. But theres another FO you need to know about. Its FOBO, short for “Fear Of a Better Option (选择)”.We live in a world of countless choices. Even some decisions that used to be simple, like choosing a restaurant or make shopping l
34、ists, are now filled with overthinking. Youve experienced FOBO when youve try to choose just one from a group of acceptable results.Luckily, there is a way to overcome FOBO. With any decision you make, you first have to decide the risks. You only really face three types of decisions in life: high ri
35、sks, low risks and no risks. Lets start with no-risk decisions. These are small things of life, where there is almost never an incorrect answer. So spending more than a few moments on FOBO is a great waste of energy. When it comes to no-risk decisions, the key is to outsource (外包) them to the univer
36、se (宇宙), For example, you can cut down your choices to just two and then flip a coin (掷硬币).Then, lets make low-risk decisions. There are plenty of acceptable results but no one of them is earth-shaking. You can also outsource decision-making. As there are some risks, some thinking is required. And y
37、ou can outsource them to a person. Choose someone to present his or her advice.Finally, youll need to deal with high-risk decisions. These are things like “which house should I buy” or “which job should I accept”. Since the risks are high and there is long-term influence, you really want to get it r
38、ight. Its best to make a few basic rules to guide you through the process. First, think about what really matters to you. Second, collect facts with care. And third, compare each of your options, one by one. Each time, choose the better of the two and give up the other one.If you follow this system,
39、 you will usually end up with a decision on your own.How to overcome FOBOYou have to decide the risks _39_ you make any decision.No-risk decisionsDont waste time on them, because the options are almost all _40_. The key is to outsource them to the universe, for example, flipping a coin.Low-risk deci
