Reading is good for you. The more you read,the more you learn,the better you understand life.【1】 Sometimes,people do want to read,but they can never seem to find the time. Well,my fiends,the following suggestions are for you.

Think of reading as a pleasure.

【2】 Science,history,film,art—whatever you want. If you're attracted to the book,you will be willing to pick it up and read it.

Have a goal.

Setting a goal can help you to read more. Some people set a goal for themselves like reading one book a week. In fact,sometimes it is difficult to finish it. You can start by reading a book a month or a book every two months even. 【3】

Just start.

Sometimes the thing which prevents us from reading is our own mind. Our mind will make up all kinds of excuses not to do something. 【4】 Just do it. Once you start reading,it's quite difficult to stop!

【5】

If you're willing to read and have decided to do,use every possible moment to read. On the bus. On the subway. You won't regret it,I promise!

In one of his poems,Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu compared girls around the age of 13 to blooming cardamom （豆蔻） flowers. Since then,people have used the phrase to refer to teenage girls of this age.

Rather than using numbers,ancient Chinese people described someone's age using titles （稱(chēng)謂）. For example,Chuitiao,meaning "straight hair",referred to children from 3 to 8 years old. Chuitiao was a popular hairstyle for children of these ages.

Zongjiao,meaning "twisted （纏繞的） horn （角）",described children from 9 to 14 years old. Back then,children would comb their hair into two halves and twist each half into a knot. They looked like two horns on their heads.

Shufa,meaning a child ties his hair up,was used for boys who had reached the age of 15.

Ruoguan,or "junior cap" was used for young men in their twenties. These men would attend a hat-wearing ceremony when they turned 20,showing that they had become an adult.

"The year of independence" was the time when a man turned 30. He won't have a daydream any longer. He shouldn't speak more and work less.

At the age of 40,one has no doubts about the world.

When a man turned 50,he reached "the year of understanding the fate （命運(yùn)）of heaven". It means he has become aware of his fate and will no longer make any useless efforts.

Finally,if you were lucky to live beyond 100 years,you would get the title "Qiyi".

What's the matter?

Go out with a friend for a walk, a cup of coffee or a lunch date. You need not to discuss your problems at all. Sometimes all you need is a good laugh to get you going again.

Being relaxed is one of the most useful ways to solve stress. Too much stress in your body can influence your feelings. Learn right breathing and practice relaxing your body. They are helpful in dealing with stress.

Some people found it more relaxing when they do physical exercise. Go out for some walking or ride a bike when you are free. You just need to keep moving.

When you are feeling down, why not do some chores like cleaning up your room, doing some washing，or even cooking a meal? You would find it a wonderful way to relax. And getting them done is also an achievement.

You can spend some of your time helping others in a charity. Helping others can not only make you happier but also improve yourself. For example, if you love animals, help at an animal center. If you like helping people, do this at a soup kitchen. Having lots of helping hours will make you better at more things.
