When we are talking to someone,we tend to change someone else's mind to our way of thinking. And we may often find it difficult to do that. So here are five tips on how to change someone's mind.

The first one is never to turn the conversation into an argument. It should be a conversation where you show your opinions and the facts that you've collected. By showing them the facts,we want to tell other people that we are right. But emotionally,they may not totally agree with what you say. So when you are trying to change someone's mind,try to keep it as a conversation and not an argument.

The second tip is never to say that you are wrong. If someone makes a statement that you think is wrong,it's better to point it out by saying,"I thought otherwise but I might be wrong,let's look at the facts. "The key is to say that you might be wrong,not that you are wrong. This opens up the other person to look at the data again and shows them that you're not bullheaded（顽固的）and that you're not going to change your opinion. You're showing them that you are open to new ideas and this is super important in changing someone else's mind to your way of thinking.

Tip number three is to get the other person saying yes as fast as possible. You may begin your conversation on hobbies that you guys have,something that they're crazy about,something that gets them saying yes. Because the more that you get them to say yes now,the more likely they are to say yes in the future. A conversation like this will get them to start to like you and maybe even more open up to ideas that you have. It builds up trust between the two of you.

Tip number four is to let the other person do a great amount of talking. If you let them talk more you're going to show that you actually care about their opinions and ideas,which will earn their respect in the end. By listening to them,you're going to create a friendly relationship and build trust. So when you express your opinions,they will also show a willingness to listen. Never interrupt them when they are talking. Just listen patiently with an open mind,encourage them to talk even more and more so that when it's your turn to talk,they'll listen and say nothing.

The last tip is to let the other person feel like the idea was theirs. It's wiser to make suggestions and let someone else come to the conclusion, then they have a sense of pride that it's their idea. Giving someone the data and letting them come to the conclusion, let them feel like it is their idea and they take pride in it.

We'll save bits of time here and there, add it up, and we will finally get to everything we want to do. But after studying how successful people spend their time and looking at their schedules (时刻表), I think this idea has it completely backward. We don't build the lives we want by saving time. We build the lives we want, and then time saves itself.

I recently did a time diary project looking at 1,001 days in the lives of unusually busy women. They had demanding (要求高的，费力的) jobs, sometimes their own businesses, kids to care for, maybe parents to care for.

One of the women whose time log I studied goes out on a Wednesday night. She comes home to find that her water heater has broken, and there is now water all over her rooms. If you've ever had anything like this happen to you, you know how frightening it is. So she's dealing with the mess that night, and the next day she's got plumbers (水管工) coming in. The day after that, a cleaning worker comes to repair the floor. It takes seven hours of her week. Seven hours. That's like finding an extra hour in the day.

But I'm sure if you had asked her at the start of the week, "Could you find seven hours to go to the gym?" I'm sure she would've said, "No! Can't you see how busy I am?" Yet when she had to find seven hours because there is water all over her rooms, she found seven hours. And what this shows us is that time is highly changeable. We cannot make more time, but time will reach for what we choose to put into it.

Small moments can have great power. You can use your bits of time for bits of joy. Maybe it's choosing to read something wonderful on the bus on the way to work. I know when I had a job that required two bus rides every morning, I used to go to the library on weekends to get books to read. It made the whole experience almost enjoyable.

It's about looking at the whole of one's time and seeing where important things can go. I truly believe this. There is time. Even if we are busy, we have time for what matters. And when we focus on what matters, we can build the lives we want in the time we've got.

1.What do we know about the women in the speaker's project?

A.They had a busy work schedule. B.They were single business women.

C.They followed their schedule strictly. D.They had to look after both their kids and parents.

2.What does the woman do when she finds her home a mess?

A.She is too worried to do anything. B.She deals with it in an orderly way.

C.She fixes the broken water heater by herself. D.She spends seven hours thinking of what to do next.

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A.It is important to set and achieve life goals. B.The key to success is to make full use of time.

C.Time saves itself when we focus on what matters. D.It's unwise to make your work schedule too busy.

Save the world’s trees

“When it comes to the Earth, there is no time to waste.” says the Earth Day Network. And that is right. Protecting our environment is very important, and World Earth Day was created in 1970 to ask more people to protect our environment. On April 22, people around the world celebrate Earth Day.

Every year there is a special topic, and this year it is “Trees for the Earth”, so Earth Day this year will be all about planting trees. They are planning to plant 7.8 billion trees within the next five years.

That’s a big goal, and you might wonder why trees are so important. Because they can take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and protect the air quality(质量). CO2 is a chemical in our atmosphere, but humans make too much of it. Each person makes about 2.3 tons a year, which is bad for the environment.

Well guess what! Planting new trees is important because people cut down a huge number of trees. Last year, there were 3 trillion trees in the world, about 139 billion in China. But according to China Daily, the world’s total number has been almost cut in half since human civilization(文明) began. That’s because 15 billion trees are cut down every year.

So we need to plant more to make up for（弥补）the ones we lost. One tree can take in 21.8 kilograms of CO2 per year. And it’s still one of the cheapest and best ways to get rid of CO2.

But don’t forget that we can also help the environment by cutting down on how much energy(能源) or water we use every day. Every little thing helps.

根据短文内容，回答问题。

1.When do people around the world celebrate World Earth Day?

________________________________________

2.What is the topic of Earth Day?

________________________________________

3.Why are trees so important to the earth?

________________________________________

4.How much CO2 can two trees take in each year?

During the Q&A discussion at the event, she asked the experts how a halo ( a ring of light around a moon or sun ) appears.3. “ I was very excited to take part in the meeting ! It was like I was meant to be there,” said Samantha.

Not only does Samantha study the numbers behind weather, but she also practices speaking on air.4. “ I love being on TV.” she said.
