Time is valuable but limit. There’s a famous saying, “Time is money”, this shows the

important of time. When time has gone, it will never return back. It’s a pity when many

people make poorly use of time. They spend their precious time oversleeping, drinking and

traveling. They don’t realize wasting time is equal to waste part of their life. They always

regret having made little achievement so far. Therefore, we should form the habit valuing

time. Don’t put off that can be done today until tomorrow. Laziness will not only bring us failure, but also lead us on the road of poverty and even death.

下面是生活中的几条小建议，有5处需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出符合各条建议的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。

1. You can try your hardest, you can do everything and say everything, but sometimes people just aren’t worth trying over anymore, and they aren’t worth worrying about. It’s important to know when to let go of someone who only brings you down. The moment someone tells you that you’re not good enough is the moment you know you’re better off than they are, and better off without them.

2.Remember that the way you’ve always done it isn’t the only way. It’s unlikely that one of the things you’ll regret when you’re 70 is not having consumed enough beer in your 20s, or not having bought enough $6 lattes from Starbucks, or not having frequented the same night club for years. But the regret of missing out on opportunities is a real feeling. You’ve figured out drinking and going out. You’ve had enough lattes. It’s time to figure something else out. Every corner you turn or street you walk down has a new experience waiting for you. You just have to see the opportunity and be adventurous enough to run with it.

3.Some of the great moments in your life won’t necessarily be the things you do; they’ll be things that happen to you. That doesn’t mean you can’t take action to affect the outcome of your life. You have to take action, and you will. But don’t forget that on any day, you can step out the front door and your whole life can change in an instant – for better or worse. To an extent, the universe has a plan that’s always in motion. A butterfly flaps its wings and it starts to rain – it’s a scary thought, but it’s part of life’s cycle. All these little parts of the machine, constantly working – sometimes forcing you to struggle, and sometimes making sure you end up exactly in the right place at the right time.

4.Life is too short to wait. Every new day is another chance to change your life. Every great accomplishment starts with the decision to try. Trust that little voice inside your head that says, “What if…” and then GO DO IT. You would be surprised how often “what if” works. And no, you’re not obligated to win every time. You’re obligated to keep trying – to do the best you can do every day – to be better than you were yesterday.

5. Your ideas and choices don’t have to be on everyone’s list. Regardless of the opinions of others, at the end of the day the only reflection staring back at you in the mirror is your own. Make sure you’re proud of who that person is. Approach others with the belief that you’re a good person, whether they respond positively or not. It’s normal to want the people around you to like you, but it becomes a self-imposed burden when too much of your behavior is designed to constantly comfort others.

A．Always keep in mind that life is somewhat unpredictable.

B．Trust your instincts on new opportunities.

C．Introduce a little variety into your routine.

D．Accept some responsibility for the way others treat you.

E. Seek less approval from others. 

F. Let the wrong people go.
