Music not only gives you something to sing and dance to, but also can make you
feel happier. Scientists say that music can help to relax people’s mind and even help
to relieve(痛苦) pain. How does music work its magic? It is the fact that music
can adjust(调节) our mood(心情). Recently, there is a scientific research toback up
what we have always known about music. The studies have shown that when people
are excited or happy they are more helpful. The opposite (相反的情况)happens when
people feel aggressive(好斗的) or under stress. The use of music can influence how
helpful people can be.
Dr. Adrian North made a study with 256 university students.Half the group took exercise
in the gymnasium listening to music which can bring happiness and the other half exercised
to aggressive music. When leaving the gym, the students were asked to hand out flyers(传单) in support of the local disabled athlete’s foundation(残疾运动员基金会).
The results showed that nearly half of the group that listened to happy music were willing to (愿意) hand out flyers. But less than 20% in the group that heard the aggressive music were willing to do so. This study suggests that our choice of music can influence our willingness to cooperate(合作). While a study also shows that productivity (生产效率) can be increased with the right choice of background music in the workplace. As music stimulates(刺激)worker’s mind, job satisfaction is often positively influenced. Other studies have shown that workers who are in a good mood have more job satisfaction than those in a bad mood.
These studies show that music can have a powerful influence on a person’s ability to cooperate. Moods have a direct influence(直接影响) on cooperation and job satisfaction. These factors also have a direct relationship to the success of a business.

The missing flight MH 370 attracted the most attention all over the world. The final result was that there were no survivors. Since 1985, Australian professor Ed Galea has interviewed over 2,000 survivors of 105 plane crashes, searching for the keys to keep alive
1. Sitting with your family

If you are traveling in a family group, you should be together with your family. Why? If you sit away from each other, it's only natural that you must want to join your family group when the accident happens. If you do that it’s going to cause more problems.
2. The seat belt
How do you undo your seat belt in your car? You press a button. In a plane, you lift a latch(插销). If you can't undo your seat belt then, you -can't escape and you will lose chances of survival.
3. Facing backward
We would all be safer if airline seats faced backward. But the difficulty with this is that the passengers don't like traveling with their back facing the direction of travel. Experts suggest that the direction of seats should be changed.
4. Put on a smoke hood(头罩)
"Smoke contains toxic (有毒的) gases, narcotic(麻醉的) gases. It contains irritant (刺激的)  gases. If you breathe enough of them you will die," explains Galea. He carries a smoke hood but warns that you must follow his example and learn how to use it. Otherwise you'll waste time trying to put it on time that could be used for making an exit.
5. Listen to the flight attendants
Listen to the flight attendants carefully and read the safety card after you get on the plane. Be prepared. And if you're about to crash, do 1ike this -- head down, ankles behind knees. The brace position is one of the most important things that a passenger should take on board when they fly. It’s designed to reduce your chances of being knocked during a heavy crash.

Computers can injure (伤害) you. Most other injuries happen suddenly. For example, if you fall off a bike and break your arms, it happens very quickly. But computer injuries happen slowly. You probably know how to ride a bike safely. Now learn to use a computer safely.
Your eyes
Too much light can injure your eyes, so never sit too close to a computer screen. Your eyes should be more than 50 centimeters from the screen. Don’t forget to look away from it sometimes. This gives your eyes a rest.
When you use a computer, the window should be on your left or your right. If it is behind you, the light will reflect on (反射) the screen. If the window is in front of you,the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes.
Your hands and wrists (手腕)
Hand and wrist injuries can happen because the hands and wrists are moved in the same way hundreds of times.
If you use a keyboard for a long time, follow these three rules:
1) Rest your wrists on something.
2) Keep your elbows (肘) as high as the keyboard.
3) Stop sometimes and exercise your hands, wrists and fingers in a different way.
Your back
Some people sit for many hours in front of a computer. If you sit in the wrong way, you can injure your back or your neck. So you shouldn’t bend your back when you sit. The top part of the screen should be in front of your eyes. Your forearms, wrists, hands and the upper part of your legs should all be parallel (平行) to the floor. If you are sitting for a long time, get up every half an hour and exercise your arms, legs and neck.
Enjoy your computer, but use it safely.

In our daily life, we may meet with difficulties. What should we do? When we face with problems, we often feel, “I am the only one having such problems.” Or, we exaggerate (放大) our problems and regard them as the most painful. But if we look around us, we find other people may be in much worse conditions.
Every person has his own difficulties no matter who and where he is. So it’s very important to have a correct attitude in your life. Only with the correct attitude can you face up all of your difficulties and finally overcome (战胜) them. First, you have to believe in yourself. That’s the secret of success. Second, don’t complain about others when you have difficulties, because it can neither help you avoid difficulties nor help you solve them. And the most important thing is that don’t run away or give up. Use your ability to clear the difficulties that appear in your life. Third, remember how you overcome the difficulties because it may help you avoid similar trouble next time. Just take it easy, enjoy the life even it’s full of difficulties.
