With the development of modem technology, there are plenty ways for us to contact people. One of our most favorite ways is probably WeChat. The main reason may be because it is very convenient to use with the popularity of the smart phone. We can contact friends whenever it is but wherever we are. We like using WeChat also because it is very cheap. It costs only a little and is even free unless Wi-Fi is available. Another advantage lies in the speed with which messages get sent and received. It’s so fast that we can get in touch with others instantly. More importantly, using WeChat, we can give friends not only very exact written informations but also very moving greeting words, that we might not say face to face. Besides, music as well as pictures and videos are often uploaded through WeChat, so it is now a useful entertainment tool.
In a word, using WeChat is a good choice for you to keep in contact with friends.

How to develop courage by overcoming daily fears
At times, when it comes to courage, we tend to believe it only applies to rare and uncommon situations. Yet our ordinary lives can also be full of courage, even if we are not facing the end of a gun, a wild animal or a dangerous criminal. Courage doesn’t just mean doing heroic acts. 1. In fact, where there is fear on a daily basis, there are opportunities for you to show your courage. Here are some suggestions to develop courage by overcoming daily fears.
Recognizing your fears.
By realizing that you’re fearful, you are more likely to get to the bottom of what your fear is. 2. You might come to understand that you’re afraid of failing or taking chances. You may be fearful simply because you don’t have confidence in yourself. The key is not to dwell on your fear, but rather to understand what it is that you’re worried about.
Ask yourself what is the worst that can happen.
If you hesitate to take action, ask yourself this: what’s the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then go on to improve on the worst. Is failure the worst thing that can happen? No, absolutely not. 3.. Doing nothing is actually the worst thing that can happen. When you take no action, you are assured of getting nowhere.
Take action.
4.. You cannot think courage comes just in one day. You need to act to overcome your fear. Your action may put you into discomfort, but you have to just do it. And your action can prevent you from being stuck.
5. To build up your confidence, you need to do the same thing over and over again. Soon you will discover that less courage is needed because you have already gained mastery. You are able to move decisively forward.
A. Share your fears with others.
B. Practice, practice and practice.
C. So you are already in a comfort zone.
D. Courage comes from taking action
E. Each undesired result is just one more step towards your goal.
F. Finding out what is truly holding you back,
G. You needn’t wait for an emergency to occur to develop courage.
Did you know that sixty percent of your body weight is water? However, a loss of only two percent of this water through dehydration (脱水) during exercise can significantly affect your performance. The more you sweat, the more your exercise performance declines, unless you drink enough to replace your loss of fluids (液体).
When you lose too much water, you can overheat quite easily, especially in a warm environment. But this is not the only problem you may face. Dehydration leads to your heart pumping much faster, which means exercise becomes more difficult and requires more effort. Despite these problems, however, many of us simply do not take enough fluids in when we head for the gym or set out on a run.
So why is this? How do we manage to lose so much water without simply drinking more to replace it? Well, it’s easier than you think. When we are at rest, we quickly become aware that we are thirsty and will put that right by having a drink. When we exercise, on the other hand, our thirst mechanism (结构) does not work as effectively, so we don’t notice early enough that we are actually thirsty. In fact, we only start to fed thirsty when we have already lost around two percent of our body weight.
Another problem is that, the more dehydration we become during exercise, the more difficult it is to prevent further dehydration-because our stomachs become intolerant (不能容忍的) to fluids and we do not absorb water properly, just when we need it most.
The key thing about fluids and exercise is to manage your intake properly-regular small amounts are preferable, and some should be drunk before the period of exercise begins. You also need to match your intake to the sort of exercise you are doing. For example, for one hour of exercise, such as taking part in a 10 km run, you need to drink about two extra litres of water. For longer periods of exercise, sports drinks are recommended.
