牛郎和织女的故事英文作文500字(推荐两篇)

nstead of saying "I dont have time" try saying "its not a priority" and see how that feels. Often thats a perfectly adequate explanation. I have time to iron my sheets, I just dont want to. But other things are harder. Try it:

"Im not going to edit your resume, sweetie, because its not a priority."

"I dont go to the doctor because my health is not a priority."

If these phrases dont sit well, thats the point. Changing our language reminds us that time is a choice. If we dont like how were spending an hour, we can choose differently.

[英文经典哲理故事

in the spring and autumn period, a man in the state of song raised monkeys. the monkeys could understand what he said.

as the man became poor, he wanted to reduce the monkeys food. he first suggested that he give them three acorns(橡子) in the morning and four acorns in the evening.

thereupon, the monkeys protested angrily. then their owner said, "how about four in the morning and three in the evening?" the monkeys were satisfied with that.

this idiom originally meant to befool others with tricks. later it is used to mean to keep changing ones mind.
