21、llowed Aryan to your room and overheard what passed between you.“Since you could not act against the law of man and God, he would serve a natural justice in his own way.

28、about your painful legs after playing in a soccer game, you found your best pal by accident.“Small talk is where all your relationships begin,” Forbes magazine summed up.The following is a five-step guide to making small talk from Bernardo J. Carducci, the director of the Shyness Research Institute
29、at Indiana University Southeast, US. Lets have a look. Getting startedBegin by talking about the setting, such as the weather outside or the room you are in (“Its cold in here, isnt it?”). The purpose of talking about the setting is to show the other person that you are willing to make a conversatio
30、n.The personal introductionYou should mention something about yourself, such as your name. A good personal introduction helps move the conversation forward.Looking for topicsAt this point, you and your conversation partner need to find common ground. This is a good time to ask questions or to refer
31、back to things youve said or heard earlier. Dont worry if it gets quiet. The other person is probably just thinking of something to say.Expanding the topicThe goal is to keep the conversation going. At every stage, you should be careful not to talk too much. But dont let the other person dominate th
32、e conversation either. If that starts to happen, mention something about yourself when he or she takes a breath.A polite endingWhen ending a conversation, let the person know youll be leaving soon, express gratitude for the conversation and set the stage for a future conversation. For example, you c
33、ould say, “I really must be going soon, but I had a great time chatting with you. I really liked hearing your opinion about that new movie. Heres my phone number.

36、opics for studentsD. teach students how to create friendshipsCIts such a shame to lose a free throw. Playing in the court has pressure from the opponent, time, your teammates, the audience, and yourself. You have to shoot the ball despite all the pressures around. But with a free throw, you have the
37、 ball, no one will try to get it from you, and you have all the time to shoot the ball. But why is it that many players, even good shooters, miss most of their free throws? Maybe they need more practice or maybe they need to apply more ways to improve their free throw. Improve your player or your fr
38、ee throwing skills by following the tips below:Make it personal. The truth is, there is no rule on how one should handle and throw the ball in a free throw. What matters is that the player should shoot the ball from the free throw line no matter how he does it. So when trying to improve your free th
39、row shooting, better stick to what works the best for you. Do not copy other peoples techniques. Make it your own and leave those techniques as theirs. Formulate (公式化) a repetitive way of shooting the ball. A free throw should be personalized. But it should also be repetitive. You should be able to
40、repeat your free throw techniques whether you are in your court or in another court, whether you are energized or tired. You cant say you have a personal free throw technique if you cant repeat it over and over again. Shoot at the same position and distance for every free throw. Basketball courts ma
41、y be located in different places or maybe marked with different paint colors. But all of these courts maintain the same distance from the ring to the free throw line.

46、raditionally male workplace produced many problems. Men were annoyed by womens higher productivity and willingness to work for lower pay.
