People who show confidence really seem to have it made. They seize more rewarding careers, keep
good relationships, and just seem to do everything with more style than the rest of us.
So what"s their self-confidence"s secret? There isn"t one. Self-confidence is a skill and habit that anyone can learn to develop. And although people who are raised in an encouraging environment with confident
role models have a head start in self-confidence development, we all can learn to become more confident
at any age.
Try these simple tips for practicing and increasing your confidence levels:
Dare to fail. Anybody who"s out there bravely performing is going to fail repeatedly. If you"re not failing, you"re not trying. So don"t take failure too hard or too personally. Just learn to roll with it and use its
lessons to keep improving.
When in doubt, pretend you know what your are doing. Because if you are confident of your abilities,
by the time you have done it, you will be experienced.
Dress for success. You don"t have to be beautiful to be confident. Make the most of your own unique
physical characters and weaken your disadvantages so that you know you"re giving out your best image.
Listen to be yourself. You"re the only person who knows what"s right for you. Don"t put others"
opinions above your own inner voice.
Build a confident vocabulary. Stop putting yourself down and give up continually blaming your tiny
weaknesses. Learn to show up your strong points and the world will learn to see and celebrate them with
you.
Pass on praise. Praise others for their virtues and strength. This practice will not decrease your
confidence, but help increase it.

[1] What do you do to take care of the books in your library? Some collectors refuse to read the
books in their collection; so the books remain in good condition. Others buy two copies of a book: they
read one, and leave the other untouched. However, many readers must read their books, but they still want to protect and care for the volumes. Here are some tips to remember if you want your books to remain in good condition.
[2] Avoid Writing. You may have been told to write in your books, or even to underline words,
phrases, and paragraphs. But if you plan to keep the book, add it to your library, or even sell it - don"t
write in the book. The ink may damage your book forever. Use a notebook to take notes or use pieces of paper. If you are required to write in your book, use a pencil, and remove the markings later.
[3] Avoid Food and Drinks. Food and drinks are things that may be dangerous to your books, so the
best way is to avoid eating or drinking while you read. If you need to read while you eat, make sure your
fingers are clean and dry as you hold the book or turn the pages. Also, keep the book well away from the
food and drinks.
[4] Take Care. When you handle your book, hold it with care. When you read the book, don"t fold
down the corners of the pages (use a bookmark instead). Don"t place your book with the book open,
face-down. You"d better use a book cover to keep your book in the best condition.

In America, drivers" education is part of the regular high school curriculum. Every student in his or her
second year of high school is required to take a class in driver"s education. However, unlike other courses, it is not given during the regular school year. Instead it is a summer course.
The course is divided into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations and driving time to
practice driving. Class time is not unlike any other class. The students have a text from which they study the basic laws they must know to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone wanting to get a driver"s
license(驾照).
Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wheel(steering wheel) and practice starting,
steering(驾驶), backing up, parking, switching lanes, turning corners, and all the other maneuvers(操作)
required to drive a car. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students and the
instructor go out driving for two-hour blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving time
per outing. The instructor and "driver" sit in the front seats and the other three students sit in the back.
Drivers Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes(刹车), one on the driver"s
side and one on the other side where the instructor sits. Thus, if the student driver should run into
difficulties the instructor can take over. The car also has another special feature. On the top of the car is a
sign that reads: STUDENT DRIVER. That lets nearby drivers know that they should use extra caution
(谨慎)because the student driver is a beginning driver, not very experienced and prone to(易于…的)
driving slowly.
After the student has passed the driver"s education course and reached the appropriate(适当的)age to drive(this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old), they can go to a
designated(指定的)state office to take their driver"s test, which is made up of an eye examination, a
written test, and a road test. The person must pass all the three tests in order to be given a driver"s license. If the person did well in his or her driver"s education class, he or she will pass the test with flying colors a
nd get a driver"s license.

the color of your skins is-all people are human beings. Firstly, we can tell you that the lives of your
relatives could depend on your ability to give first aid. If you think highly of human"s life, this website is
for you! Here you can find information about first aid.
The very first thing that you should do when you see an accident is to evaluate the situation and
prevent further dangerous incidents. First of all, you have to recognize what has happened and what the
dangers to rescuers and victims are. Think about how to take care of the victims.
Helping usually takes place in very difficult conditions and injuries can be very bad. Therefore, you
cannot be too afraid of making mistakes to help. Sometimes you have to face the fact that regardless of
your actions and your efforts the victim"s condition might not improve-he or she could even die. In some
cases even professional medical aid may not succeed. If you have done everything you think you should
do, you shouldn"t feel guilty.
Do not expose yourself to danger. Giving first aid can be dangerous. While trying to help a victim, do
not forget about your own safety. If something happens to you, you won"t be able to help anyone.
Call for help after you find out the condition of a victim. But remember if a victim faints due to
breathing failure caused by drowning, choking or poisoning, you should first take actions that help to
bring back the heart beat and breathing. While calling, talk shortly but clearly. Always provide the
following information: the location of the accident, the kind of accident, the number of the injured and
your full name and phone number and so on.

and lovely tattoo designs are the path to go for girls planning to get tattooed for the first time.
Nowadays, more and more females are getting a tattoo inked on their body. In the last fifteen years,
tattoos have grown from being a sign of rebelliousness and trouble to a state of popular acceptance as a
mark of fashion.
Tattoos are permanent so you need to be sure that you like it before getting one. A great way is to
have small tattoos that look beautiful as well. You can get a cherry blossom tattoo on the foot, perhaps,
a hibiscus flower on the shoulder or a lovely butterfly on the lower stomach; whatever design you choose,
it can definitely add to your attractiveness and charm.
Deciding to get a tattoo needs careful thought and reflection. Otherwise, you could make some serious
tattoo mistakes. Try to avoid big and obvious designs if possible. Another important part of choosing a
tattoo design is the location. What part of the body do you want it on? Choosing a hidden location can
often make the tattoo the perfect adornment (装饰). As for professional women, tattoos should normally
be where they can be hidden.
Most importantly, no matter what tattoo design you choose the final goal is that the design should be
something you like. If you are into the tattoo and really feel passionate about it you will carry yourself in
a different manner when you get it inked on your body.
