Sihanoukville, Cambodia is a seaside town located 200km or a four

18、f the greatest sources of unhappiness, in my experience, is the difficulty we have in accepting things as they are. When we see something we dont like, we wish it could be different. We cry out for something better. That may be human nature, or perhaps its something ingrained(根深蒂固的) in our culture.

Can we make this world a better place? You can say that youll continue to try to do things to help others, to grow as a
23、person, to make a difference in this world. Thats the correct path you choose to take, because you enjoy that path. Therefore, when you find yourself judging and wishing for difference, try a different approach：accept, and understand. It might lead to some interesting results. 24. The author believe

And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved “training it
30、 to know what happiness looks like”. The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot like when a childs hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.Were

For example, students who majored in finance or math, may also have the necessary skills to be hired as an accountant. Lastly, there are
39、many industries, such as professional sales, education (non-teaching positions), insurance, and customer service management, which hire new graduates from several more majors, looking for more generalized (笼统的) requirements.

Anger is largely viewed as a secondary emotion one caused by other emotions. People are thought to be
46、angry because they are sad, anxious or stressed. 36 Today, though, a growing number of mental health experts think that anger is a serious problem that needs its own treatment.
