C ★★★★☆
Following the crowd may not always be in a person's best interest. But new research suggests something different. Scientists have known that close friendships help health. Lonely people are more likely to get sick. That's true for both teens and adults. Those findings inspired Joseph Allen and his team to look at teen behavior.
So they followed 171 teens,starting when the kids were just 13. The same 171 people were interviewed again as adults,at ages 25,26 and 27. Whether teens held in their feelings or expressed them to a close companion also influenced their later health. Those who held in their feelings were more likely to become sick as adults. What’s more,the study found that teens who went along with what their friends wanted,rather than being independent,were also healthier in their twenties.
The (關(guān)系) held up even after the scientists took other possible influences on health into consideration. Weight,family income and drug use were all examined. Going along with the crowd may have benefits,says Allen,but there are also weak points. Teens who are more independent are likely to do better in school. And peer ^essure may lead some kids to. do risky thi?gs.
Tara Dumas is ? (心理學(xué)家) in London. She says that the study’s findings not only are interesting but alsft emphasize the value of teen friendships. She wants to know what will happen when peers encourage each other to behave in ways that are unhealthy,such as smoking or drinking. She wonders whether those friendships will still lead to healthier adults.
Dealing with peer pressure is a challenge. It is not as simple as just saying ‘no” ” Allen says. “Finding the right balance is the key. Parents need to understand fhe pressures teens face,” he adds.

B ★★★★☆
Susan Cain was such a shy girl that she did not want Other people to look at her. But when she grew up Susan chose to be a lawyer,which is usually for a bold(大膽的) person. But Susan thinks that her shyness has made her a better lawyer.
She said, “At first I had the idea that I would be disadvantaged. But I quickly found that was not true.I’m good at listening to people,which helps me build relationships with others. These would also make me very powerful.”
Almost half of all people say that they are shy. Social scientists studied young adults in eight countries across the world. They found that in Japan 57% of people said that they were shy. The lowest number was in Israel,only 31%. In most countries,bout 40% of the population said they were shy.
Scientists say that it is because of two things: genetic(遺傳) character and life experience. They did a study of two-month-old babies. Of every five babies,one was very active. Some people become shy because of what has happened to them. For example,children who are always blamed (責(zé)備)by their family can be shy. But good experiences can help sensitive children become active.
Shy people may feel that they have a disadvantage in their social life and their work. But shyness can be an advantage. Many shy people have good characters. They are gooasfriends because they listen more than they talk. They are much less likely to cheat or lie even when they think they cannot be caught. Studies show that they are much more likely to show.?ympí?ty (同情) for others.
Shy people may not have a choice about being shy. But they can learn to use the good qualities they have. In this way they can do something good with their shy character.

Every year 10 to 15 percent of babies bom in the ?.S. end up in the neonatal intensive care unit(新生兒重癥監(jiān)護(hù)病房) (NICU) of a hospital because of heart problems or other issues. And for the parents of those children,NIC? nurses are their rock.
“Care in the NIC? is intensive,” one nurse,Renee Hendrix,says in the video Tiny Miracles put out by Kleenex in recognition of annual Neonatal Nurses Day. “Our babies are in great danger,” she continues. “I treat them like I would want somebody to treat my baby when I’m not there. That’s the most important thing.”
But to her,gratitude is the most important thing in this video,which shows the nurse,who works at WellStar Kennestone Hospital,became very happy because of the thank-you messages from 17 families of her former patients.. The video producers surprise Hendrix by opening a door to show each of those grateful families gathered together to thank her in person,along with the babies she saved. “Are you kidding me?” in the video Hendrix screams. “All my favorit? people are in one room!” Aft?r hugging her former patients,she says in the video,UI love taking care of these babies. I don’ t do what I do for any kind of thank you but it's a wonderful feeling to be appreciated."
This campaign(活動(dòng)) of thanks is continuing in social media as well,with other NIC? families cheering on the nurses who made a difference in their lives. It’s all part of the job,though,according to Hendrix. She says being a NIC? nurse makes her gain more than what she devotes. “Working with babies that you thought would never even make it out of here and knowing that you had a part in helping them survive is a wonderful feeling,” she says.

Da Costa was a child of the streets of Fortaleza,Brazil,whose future seemed hopeless. Then she saw a ballet performance by students from a dance school called EDISCA. a irawpe (劇團(tuán)) that included other poor guys from her street. It was about the lives of Fortaleza's poorest kids who begged at traffic lights and lived on the street. “That really affected me ,” says Da Costa. “The reality in the ballet was just like mine. I hadn’t begged,but the lives I saw were very close to the life I was living."
Da Costa went to EDISCA. and the school changed her life,as it did the lives of 800 other girls aged 6 to 19 and a few boys from Fortaleza.

Andrade and a staff of 36 teach them about health care,art,music,etc. But one course is a must. “Dance is the most important part of the school” says Andrade. Through dance,a seven-year-old leams about vision and order as well as creativity."
Schools modeled on EDISCA are now open in five other Brazilian cities. Andrade’s students put on shows as far as Italy. They attract funding sources like the Washington-based Ashoka organization,a nonprofit (非營(yíng)利的) group that supports 1 ,100 “social entrepreneurs” in 41 countries. Last year a $55,000 loan (貸款) from the Brazilian government let EDISCA move into a new building.

In the spring of 2012,I moved to the San Francisco bay area with my wife and two young sons.
I tried to get hold of one of my old Nokia cellphones,but they were no longer available.
I remember the exact moment when I realized something important had happened. I was on my bike,cycling to Stanford,and it struck me that a week had gone by without having a phone. And everything was just fine. Better than fine,actually. I felt more carefree and happier. That was in September 2012. I have been phone-free since then.

“What if something happened t? your children?” This one always strikes me. My children are eight and four. They are with a responsible adult at all times. I love them more than I could ever say and I love spending time with them but really,why do I need to keep in touch with them every minute of the day? If something happens,there will be always someone there to take care of them.
Then there's my company: “How can you be a tech CEO without using a phone?” I do always borrow phones to see how our new products work on mobile.
