87、es. They trade time on Facebook with calling those few friends who really matter to them. Instead of running to different meetings, they put space on their calendars to get important work done.So we have two choices: We can be among the last people caught up in “The More Bubble”， or we can join the
88、growing community of Essentialists and get more of what matters in our one precious life.语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。受智能手机、社交媒体和极端消费主义的影响，许多人乐于说自己很忙，这掩盖了生活的本质。我们应当关注生活中最重要的部分，屏蔽那些无关紧要的事物。8When the woman said for two weeks she only slept for four hours a night, _.Ashe was unsatisfied with her lifestyleBshe was ask
