10、ngs its own challenges. Here are a few things to bear in mind when browsing (浏览) various websites. The claim made by online sites is that shopping online is a safe and secure way to make purchases. The evidence challenges this.

Its hardly surprising that your feelings of not being “grown up” have come on
18、 strongly at this point in your life, just before youre about to become a father. You are asking: will I make a good father? How will I cope? Should I have brought another little person into the world? Can I provide for it? Heeelp! I think nearly every sensitive about-to-be-parent must have these oc
19、casional feelings of self-doubt and inadequacy (不适) before the birth and it would be most unusual if you didnt share them.Its difficult, honestly, to feel grown-up unless you have something less grown-up to relate to. A hen-pecked (惧内的) boss may feel like a seven-year-old when hes at home. But as he
20、 walks through the office door, and knows hes going to be surrounded by staff looking to him for advice, he grows into a fully mature man.

These days, much older, I can, in the company of people I feel at ease with, feel like a young girl.Theres a common remark that “all men are little boys”,
22、but its not true. Its more true that men often behave like little boys. But nearly all people, at some moments in their lives, are capable of great maturity.Once your baby arrives, youll soon feel less childlike, or rather, less often. When your child tries to put its fingers into the electric plug,
23、 the adult in you will rise up to prevent it. Youll see you have very little in common with a needy child, particularly if its looking to you for comfort and support.Comfort yourself, David, with two truths. One is that your friends laugh when they talk about this subject because they, like you, fee
24、l frightened. And remember that people who havent grown up dont go around talking about the fact that they dont feel grown-up.Hope my advice will be helpful and good luck to you and your little one.Sincerely Yours,Miss Advice43.

For winter days, there are small heaters in the vents.This is all possible only because Harare is 1600 feet above sea level, has cloudless skies, little dampness and rapid temperature swings
32、 days as warm as 31 commonly drop to 14 at night. “You couldnt do this in New York, with its fantastically hot summers and fantastically cold winters,” Pearce said.The engineering firm of Ove Arup & Partners monitors daily temperatures. It is found that the temperature of the building has generally
33、stayed between 23 and 25, with the exception of the annual hot period just before the summer rains in October and three days in November, when a doorkeeper accidentally switched off the fans at night.
