These days, more and more students in thc UK are taking a “gap year” between their graduation from school and their university studies. This means that they take a year off, to do something else, before they start their studies.
For most students, spending time in foreign countries is the favorite activity-- and Australia is the favorite place to go.
Many parents, teachers and business people agree that travelling can teach important values.
“ After a year of travelling,I learnt the importance of relationships with people on al1 sorts of 1evels.”
There  are  many companies around the world  that welcome these students on their projects ——helping people  in poor countries , or even in your home country. Although you don't get paid for your work, this kind of work can teach important ski1ls —decision making and finding answers to problems. for cxample—that will help a student in a job one day.
Finally, the knowledge and experience you get will one day be very useful in an area you hope to study or work in.
If several university graduates are applying for the same job, gap year work experience allows you to say:" I've already had some experience of this kind of work. "And that can get you the job!

Bitterness appears when we can't
forgive (原谅) someone who has hurt us or made us angry. Someone might say or do something that hurts us. But instead of cont rolling the anger, we  eep it deep inside. Before long, a bitter feeling begins to grow. We may think we're hurting that person by criticizing (指责 ) him or her often, but we're really only hurting ourselves.   Bitterness can not only lead to serious health prohIems such as heart discease, but also hurt our relationships with friends and family members. No one around an angry person for very Iong..
If you see bitterness in your life, here are some ways to deal with it.
. Accept it
Instead of trying to deny your anger, make it clear to yourself and accept it. See your anger for what it is and quickly deal with it.
. Stop making excuses for it
You may feeI you havc a right to be angry. You may think you're right and the other person is wrong. You may even secretly enjoy making the other person look bad. But in the end, bitterness hurts you much more than the other person. The bitterness will hold you back, and the other person will go on with his or her life.
. Forgive and forget it
