[2]Sometimes these things make people happy; other times, people stress over not having reached the goals, or reach them and find they’re still unhappy．Other times, people focus on just one goal and don * t have time for other things that will make them truly happy．

[4]So while setting your goals, remember all of the areas of life that are important to you and find a balanced lifestyle including social support, personal development, physical health and meaningful pursuits besides career success and financial security．______, your attitude about life and the things that happen to you each day can also have a great effect on your level of happiness and life satisfaction．In addition to being optimistic, happy people tend to believe they are the masters of their fate, rather than the victims of circumstance．

“Let’ s Talk”：The Free Advice Project

A few weeks ago, I took a walk around Washington Square Park. I met all the usual people：street performers, the Pigeon Guy, a group of guitarists singing in harmony. But off to the side, sitting on a bench was a woman doing something vastly different—giving free advice.

A week or two later, I set up an interview with her and we discussed her project at length.

Lisa Podell, 32, started the Free Advice Project this past May. It began as an experiment; she sat in Washington Square Park for a day with a sign that read “Free Advice” as a simple way to reach out to people. Podell was astonished at the strong response.

Podell admits that she was doubtful at first, but now she describes the project as mutually (相互地) beneficial. People learn from her—but she also learns from them. She says that the majority of those who come to her are dealing with some pretty heavy issues, and they expect her not only to listen, but also provide real answers.

Having worked as a full time teacher and now as an adolescent advisor, Podell believes that talking things out is an important in the decision-making process.

Sometimes, people walk around all day, keeping their problems in their own head and thinking about them in the same way. Podell simply strives to provide people with perspective.

I asked if there is a future plan for the Free Advice Project. Podell said she would like to promote it to each public space in New York, which would be carried out by various volunteers across the city.

It was truly inspiring to meet someone with such a big heart, especially in New York—where it is sometimes very hard to find anybody to listen. (303 words)

Khaled Hamza from Cairo says calculators have a bad effect because "you don’t need to make an effort to get a result."

Hemin, a math teacher in Kurdistan-Iraq, says good math skills are life skills. So he believes in solving problems with a pencil until high school. "You should take the trouble to work out problems without calculators. Then you come to respect the power of these machines."

[1] Homestay is a great way to experience a new culture. As a volunteer you will get a new family to live with. Apart from their visits to tourist sites, most international volunteers remember their experiences in the homestay.

To help you with your homestay, here are a couple of tips.

[2] As a sign of kindness, carry a small gift to the family you are going to live with. It will make you look like a generous person and they will try to accommodate(提供住宿) you longer. People are all glad to be given gifts.

[3] As you will be living in a new home and culture, there are things that are different. There should be habits which could be new to you, like how they take a shower or how they raise kid. Do not judge them by their habits, but try to understand their culture. Soon you will find their ways are different but they also work.

[4] Don’t be the first one to wake up or the last one to wake up in the mornings. Wake up in time for breakfast and if possible try to help make breakfast. Some cultures find it __________________________ to still be in bed when everyone has got up.

[5] Be thankful for everything the family decides to give you or do for you. If the host mom wants to wash your clothes, just accept and be very grateful. When they bring food and any other things to you, make sure to thank them.

[6] Most volunteers stop communicating with the host family after they end their homestay. They may forget the host family. The better way is to keep up with the host family whenever you can. This way you would form a lifelong friendship, and the next time you go to that country you can stay with them again.
