She started writing poems that would be featured in a couple of books.Theres something else thats always been in her life: a t
9、ype of skin lupus. “All of my life, I tried to find ways to make it better,” Guarddon said. “And that led to trying to help others feel better about their skin.” The attempt took her to the U.S. in 1994, where she studied science and piano. And then she began a career in skin care. “To me, skin is a
10、 form of art,” she said. “I love making women feel beautiful.”“I wanted to create something of my own,” Guarddon said. “I wanted to realize my dream.” Her dream?

However, Isabelle is now able to access her schoolwork online, all thanks to a fidget mouse (减压鼠标): the Hoglet - a multisensory device that resembles toy. “Shes never been able to use a mouse before, and it wasnt for lack of trying,
17、but it was just not the appropriate tool,” said her mother, Julia Dapkus, 41, of Michigan.As virtual learning has become a common option for families during the COVID-19 pandemic, online schooling has also become a struggle for students with developmental disabilities.The Hoglet - which takes its na

The Flushing Hospital Medical Center in New York, which performed the study, found that fidget toys can be academically beneficial for students, including those with learning disabilities.Because of research of his own that saw similar results, Lynch decided to

Kids who grow up in a home where reading is valued and modeled are more likely to be good readers. Strangely enough, though, advanced education doesnt necessarily offset th

Adults who grew up with relatively few books in their homes and later earned a college degree had literacy levels approximately equal to adults who grew up in homes with large libraries but only attended school for nine years.Jessica Stillman of Inc. writes,
28、surrounding yourself with more books than you could ever read says good things about your mind. Those books serve as a constant reminder of all the things you dont know which helps keep you intellectually hungry and curious. And possibly, this will keep you a little more modest, since research shows
29、 the quicker you are to admit you dont know something, the faster you can then learn it.

33、the science of happiness and how to apply it. Since its launch in 2018 by Professor Laurie Santos, the course has been taken by a quarter of Yale students and more than 200,000 others in its online version. _16_When chasing happiness, many of us are trying to be a little gentler with ourselves and a
34、ssigning a priority to self-care. Thats a sensible strategy, Santos agrees. The trouble is how people understand self-care. We assume that self-care looks like a nice bubble bath - or even selfish pursuits. _17_ We actually get more out of being more open, more social and more other-oriented (以他人为中心
35、的) than spending money on ourselves.Santos isnt the only scientist insisting that you focus more on kindness to others than kindness to yourself. Research out of Oxford University confirms that even tiny acts of kindness can have significant effects on our happiness. _18_ They boost mental well-bein

I myself have lived and learned from more than a few. Its not the mistakes that matter. Its how we deal with them. What we can do is to learn
37、 from the poor choices, terrible ideas and bad decisions of the past and not repeat them. We can also learn from the mistakes of others and avoid them. _20_ And we can make all the bumps and bruises (磕磕碰碰) count for something.AApparently, we all have a thirst for happiness.BSelf-care is the foundati

With the new snow season _37_ (begin) in China, enthusiastic skiers and snowboarders have been eager to get back on the slopes (滑雪斜坡). One drag on the demand for
