27、ation of rewards and the get it doneiealities that influence our behavior.Our brains are reward-driven organs charged by neurotransmitters (神经递质)that fuel our drives and desires, and its easy for us to get carried away in this chemical tsunami. So, when we set up a goal, our focus is on the reward.
28、We picture getting the reward, and how well feel when we make it. which pushes us into action.

33、us back to the goal.B. Achieve your goal step by step.C. Accept failure and learn from the past. D. Set practical goals and work consistently.DTheres a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called So Much Trouble in the World. Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many pr
34、oblems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too -thats why it made Nov. 16 u International Day fbr Tolerance ”.But first of all, what is tolerance? French philosopher Voltaire (1694-1778) can give us some help. According to him. tolerance is the consequence o

Thi
36、s is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance. For example, the UNs campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males.

37、ance and intolerance. Arc they the best words to describe the evils of which wcrc speaking here? To agree to be tolerant of someone isnt necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies (hat (heres something wrong with them.But it seems wrong that people should agree to tol

Thats the reason why wc should be tolerant.Its a
39、little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness. Bob Marley understood this, in the song mentioned above, he advised: All you got to do: give a little. Or, as this older piece of wisdom says: Write your love on a rock so it stays for eternity; write

This is bad, for we want people to work, not beg. Working is productive while beg
44、ging is at best ilcuTral-and often a burden.

45、d man in particular. Not long ago, however, when I heard the song on th6 radio, it struck me that the man in the song does not live that horrible a life after all.
