11、ipes like fruit salad a la crme de passion fruit and filet mignon (菲力牛排). The idea to record Arthurs cooking adventures on YouTube was rooted in the young chefs leukemia diagnosis (白血病诊断) in August 2013.Treatment and recovery for the cancer left the young boy in the hospital for the second half of t
12、he year and Aruthur was even forced to spend Christmas Eve in the emergency room of So Paulos A.C. Camargo Cancer Center. Thats when his familyfather Renato Gonzaga and stepmother Priscila Inserradecided that Arthur should create something positive that would distract him from his health. The videos
13、, which are filmed in the kitchen of a friend of the family, are in Portuguese. They show Arthur walking the viewers through a step-by-step process of the entire recipefrom preparation to cooking. Occasionally, viewers can see Arthurs father serving as his sons sous chef, passing ingredients and fol

It is perhaps these qualities that have given the young rising Internet star almost 5,000 likes on his Facebook Fan Page. There are currently three videos on YouTube and accordin

19、ociated with negative outcomescharacteristics like difficulty maintaining eye contact, and feelings of humiliation(丢脸) are known to be part of a shy persons characters. Its these traits that tend to affect some shy individuals ability to connect,” says C. Barr Taylor, a professor of psychology at St
20、anford University. “But while shyness can often be seen as a bad thing, there are ways to use the personality trait to your advantage,” Taylor says.

21、or, 来源:学.科.网Z.X.X.Kall that thinking may not always be a bad thing and it should be viewed as a way you can think actively as you go into a situation. So, for shy people who feel worried about facing a particular challenge or event, Taylor advises slowly approaching the fearful situation if you star
22、t to feel anxious. By facing what you are not feeling secure about, Taylor says, you will feel less anxious. “Our brains are amazingthey can become well adapted,” he says. “If you put yourself in a fearful situation, you will get a sense that you are going to do it.” Whats more, shy individuals care

Shy people are observant and often pick up on parts of their conversation or surroundings that others may not. “Just because you are shy, that does not mean you a
24、re not used to social situations,” Taylor says. “It can actually become a source of strength as you are the observer in the room.” In a study out of Southern Illinois University at Carbondale, researchers found an association between college-age adults who were shy and the ability to better identify

We immediately rushed him to the vets where the vet said that at best treatment might lengthen his life by two to three months. We did not want to see him suffer, so we chose to kill
29、the cat in a painless way.I am having a rough time! I cry when I am alone. I cry when I see pet 来源:学+科+网Z+X+X+Kcommercials on television. I put away everything that reminds me of the cat. But the last sight of seeing the cat in pain plays over and over in my head. My kids seem alright with what has

I dont think people, unless they have a terminal illness, go through life thinking theyd better leave a video in case of a

Any special images they have would be superimposed (叠加) by the video image youve created. Others think its scaring and

I expect my video would consist of reminders to my children: Be safe; be 来源:学+科+网Z+X+X+Kmindful of your surroundings; exercise good judgment; speak up; it never hurts to ask; dont waste time and “call when you get there”. And in addition, I would repeat what I always tell th

Once considered socially unacceptable, eccentric people have been found to possess some positive characteristics. 36 They often have more curiosity about the world and, in many cases, are contentedly obsessed by hob
47、bies and interests. 37 They live in a world of their own and do not worry about what others think of them. So they are usually less restricted and therefore more carefree in forming new ideas. 来源:学科网Z-X-X-K38 Statistics show they visit their doctors lessabout once in eight to nine years, which is 20
48、 times less than the average person. This could be partly due to their innate traits such as humor and happiness. 39 This may explain why eccentrics are, on the whole, healthier. Psychologists therefore suggest that we pay attention to those who do not conform. It could be our aunt who has been rais
