Tips for cooking on a Tight Schedule

From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money and time.1.. Money is a topic I’ll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:

1.Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think ahead of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials(材料) ready?2.

2.Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread?3.It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.

3.4.This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation(实验). It gives you the chance to come up with new ideas and recipes(食谱) that can work well with your appetite(食欲) and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.

Hopefully that gives you a good start. 5.And don’t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!

A. Try new things.

B. Make three or four instead.

C. Ability is easily improved.

D. Understand your food better.

E. Cooking is a burden for many people.

F. A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.

G. Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.

It seems that the Englishman just cannot live without sports of some kind. A famous French humourist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it? Taking all amateur(业余)and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game originated in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.

The next is rugby, which is called “football” in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players rather than eleven. The rugby, in which an oval-shaped ball is used can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring,butit enjoys great popularity among the British.

Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world. Table-tennis or “ping-pong” surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or in Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.

A. are all sports lovers

D. can remain young all their lives

Dear Windows Internet Explorer.

Our relationship has been strained(紧张的)for a long time.Of course. it’s not all your fault,and nor is it a11 mine.Our intermediary is also to blame;my hated Gate-way PC. which runs far too slowly. But that does not get you off the hook.

You see,Windows Internet Explorer.I can no longer deal with your ridiculous loading time.Sure,at one time I found it attractive--even--sexy for my browser to take ages to log in or load a web page.But not any more My life is fuller than it was, and I don’t have time for you to semi-load and then stop.

Also.as much as I loved it when we got together, your refusal to log me into some of my necessary accounts.such as email and MySpace.has become a problem. It was unfair of you, and I should not have submitted to your cruelty and mistreatment.

A third reason for my leaving you may seem mean:you are simply far too sickly. You are constantly contracting new viruses.and your immune system is terrible·I don’t have the time or the money to care for you any more. It may seem unfair,but you will have to survive on your own. I cannot keep curing you.going through and finding all your corrupted(损坏的)files,cleansing our intermediary’s system because you have given it some virus,bug or spyware. It takes far too much time and energy,which I do not have.

Windows Internet Explorer,you did wonderful things for me that,at the time,no other could do.But,my dear.times have changed,and while you have,too,you have not changed enough. I am 16 now,nearly a grown woman,and I cannot tolerate your childish ways As much as I once cared about you,I fear that the time has come for us to part.

Your former friend,

Kirsty
