Some people with nothing to do are 39 of curiosity about what their neighbors are doing. They have a strong wish to know what they are 40 home or taking outside, or why they have come

19、 home so 41 or late. To be interested in these things is silly because it is none of their 42 to know what their neighbors do or are doing. Such curiosity is not only foolish but also 43 .

25、ch, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125

26、 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City.

27、fe also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbours.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in N

28、ew York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the Uni

29、ted States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momands series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of

34、g was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman living there, and I had never met her, yet I could see she sat by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading. After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I wo

35、uld say to myself. “I wonder why that woman doesnt wash her window. It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a

36、 surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible (看见). Her window was clean!Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window. That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I l

37、ooked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings? Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window?” I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about

Just talking about it or writing it down causes you to make it clear in your own mind. How can you us

41、e this to increase your brain power? Start writing. By putting thoughts into words, you are telling yourself the logic (逻辑) behind what you think, feel, or only partly understand. Often, explaining a thought is the process（过程）of understanding. In other words, you increase your brain power by exercis

42、ing your “explain power.” Try this experiment. Explain how youll increase your brain power, even if you have no idea how right now. Just start with anything, and create an explanation. For example, start with “Ill learn chess,” or “Ill read an article on the mind every week.” Explain how that will h

43、elp. Youll be surprised how often this becomes a workable plan, and if you actually do this, youll have a better understanding of your brain twenty minutes from now. Another benefit of writing is that it helps you remember. Many, if not most, highly productive people are always taking notes. You can

44、 try keeping it all in your head, but if you keep a journa（日志）of your ideas the next time youre working on a big project, youll probably have more success. Want to understand a topic? Write a book about it. Thats an extreme example, but if you are learning something new, write a letter to a friend a

45、bout it, and you will understand it better. Want to invent something? Write an explanation of the problem, why you want to solve it, and why it is worth solving, and youre half-way there.

57、ngs after having a meal, for example, drinking water. It is true that a person should drink 8 glasses of water every day to stay healthy. However, drinking water right after eating or even during a meal may disrupt (扰乱) digestion. It might affect the natural levels of acid and bile (酸和胆汁) that are n

58、ecessary for proper digestion. Whats more, drinking cold water after eating might slow down （减慢）digestion.

59、 make it difficult for the digestive system to take in nutrients (营养) from the food.

So we should wait f

60、or at least 2 hours after eating, and then begin exercising. Sleeping should also be avoided right after eating. This is because going to bed right after a meal will lead to improper digestion.

61、d then go to sleep. Many of us have the habit of drinking tea just after lunch or dinner, which is really unhealthy.

62、al may fill the stomach with air and cause discomfort. They will also take time to reach the digestive tract, disturbing the entire process of digestion.

63、s after eating, you will surely make your digestion easy, and you will be less likely to have digestive problems.Things to avoid immediately after eating Drinkingwater Drinking water immediately after eating or during a meal may disrupt digestion by (81)_ the natural levels of acid and bile.
