11、 become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it.

12、 strongly that it reshapes his own world.

19、fficulties in their childrens path to success, so they dont have to suffer failure, frustration (挫折) or lose opportunities.It starts early, when parents get on wait lists for excellent preschools before their babies are born and try to make sure their kids never do anything that may frustrate them.

20、It gets more intense when school starts: running forgotten homework to school or calling a coach to request that their children make the team.Rich parents may have more time and money to make sure their children dont ever meet with failure, but its not only rich parents practicing snowplow parenting

21、. This intensive parenting has become the most welcome way to raise children, regardless of income, education, or race.Yes, its a parents job to support the children, and to use their adult wisdom to prepare for the future when their children arent mature enough to do so.

28、als or even individual cells manage to use water in the right way. Water is important to life, but too much or too little can be deadly to a living creature.

36、is climbing the Eiffel Tower in Paris? Have you ever had that feeling that others are experiencing things and enjoying life more than you are? Oh, man! Youre missing out! 33 Researchers call that feeling the fear of missing out or FoMO. Over 75% of young people report feeling FoMO from time to time.

37、 34 Unluckily, we only have so much time in the day and only so much money to spend on food or entertainment. It would be impossible for us to enjoy all the same activities we see others take part in on social media.Rather than realizing this basic truth, though, we usually let FoMO lead us to compa

38、re our lives with those of others on social media. This certainly leaves us feeling dissatisfied. Why?
