9、g, dont! According to the recent study, sadness leads to self-focus (自我为中心的) thinking. In other words, sad people are willing to spend more money on the same thing than calm people. “It is the result of sadness and self-focus, and it turns out that sadness leads to an increase in self-focus,” said C

10、ynthia Cryder. “What we think is that sad and self-focused people are feeling pretty bad about themselves, and one way to deal with this is buying material goods.” In a perfect situation, when you know you are sad, you should avoid making decisions and spending money.

23、ful recovery, and scar tissue that can last forever. Now, a chemist and a physician have come up with a way to take the knife out of some surgeries a new method that uses mild electric pulses to soften tissue so it can be reshaped without cutting.

24、ree nose jobs or rrtv vn rr. Brian Wong, a head and neck surgeon at the University of California, Irvine, wanted a less damaging way of reshaping cartilage (软骨), a key step in many ear and nose surgeries.
