Recently 3 kinds of foods are very popular in the US.
Convenience Foods
Instead of buying only fresh foods, Americans buy many more convenience foods. These are foods which are ready partly or completely prepared. There are also many canned convenience foods, such as soups and vegetables.
Convenience foods save time and trouble. They are popular with people who are busy or who don’t like to cook or wash dishes. But they often cost more money than fresh , unprepared foods and may contain man-made additives. Also they don’t taste as good as home-cooked foods.
Health FoodsIn the 1960s, a “back-to-the earth ” movement was started by young people in the US. The movement was a reaction against the harmful effects of technology. Many people now prefer natural and organic foods to the prepared foods sold in food stores.
Diet FoodsThese days Americans are more and more concerned with their weight. American supermarkets sell a variety of diet foods as diet soft drinks, diet candy, and diet salad dressings. Each year dozens of new diets are popularized. However, some of the diet foods are unbelievable. There are tricks in their advertisements.

Taking care of unsolved issues of the past will free you to move ahead with confidence. The final step toward putting your past behind so that you can reach for what’s possible is tying up your loose ends. Loose ends are the unsolved relationships that keep you from sleeping worry-free at night. You have a loose end if there’s someone you don’t want to run into on a first date or at work. You have a loose end if there’s someone you don’t want to sit next to at a holiday dinner. Loose ends are distracting(转移) and have an amazing way of biting you in the bottom at the worst times.
1.Identify the five people with whom you have the most unsolved issues.
These could be past relationships, employers, business partners, friends, family, or co-workers.
2. Contact each of these five loose ends.
Invite each separately to a coffee shop or some other non-threatening, non-alcohol environment. Tell each one that you want to apologize for allowing things to get crossways between you. Some may doubt your intentions, but tell them that you sincerely feel it’s time to clear the air. Ask those who agree to meet to write down any ways they think you wronged them, and you do the same. Tell them to bring this list to your get-together.
3. Show up on time and thank each for forgiving enough to meet with you.
Be an adult here-finger pointing only tears people apart. Remember, you experience maybe and most likely is totally different from his. Listen to each issue that each of them raises and try to see it from their perspectives(视角). Don’t interrupt them when they are sharing. Seek to understand why they have bad feelings toward you. Apologize for each thing they think you did to wrong them(even if you don’t completely agree with his view of the situation).
After you tie up your first loose end, you’ll want to solve them all. This is hard to explain until you have done it; but once you do, you’ll know what I mean. I learned so much about myself by tying up my loose ends. Most of all, I think this process helped me become a more understanding and patient friend.
