Opportunities don’t come often. They come every once in a while. Very often, they come quietly and go by without (notice). Therefore, it is advisable you should value and treat them with care. When an opportunity comes, it brings a promise but never realizes it its own. If you want to achieve something intend to fulfill one of your ambitions, you must work hard, make efforts and get prepared. , you will take no advantage of opportunities when they come to visit you. The difference between a man who succeeds and
who does not lies only in the way each treats opportunities. The successful person always makes adequate preparations to meet opportunities as they duly arrive. The (success) person, on other hand, works little and just waits to see them pass by. 1n my opinion, there are plenty of opportunities for everyone in our society, but only those who are prepared adequately and qualified (high) can make use of them to achieve purposes.

Here's a new warning from health experts: Sitting is deadly. Scientists are increasingly warning that sitting for prolonged periods — even if you also exercise regularly — could be  1 for your health. And it doesn't matter where the sitting takes place — at the office, at school, in the car or before a computer or TV — just the overall number of hours it    2   .
Research is preliminary, but several studies   3 people who spend most of their days sitting are more likely to be fat, have a heart attack or even die.
In an editorial  4 this week in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, Elin Ekblom-Bak of the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences suggested that authorities rethink how they define    5 activity to highlight the dangers of sitting.
While health officials have issued guidelines  6 minimum amounts of physical activity, they haven't suggested people try to limit how much time they spend in a seated    7 .
"After four hours of sitting, the body starts to send  8 signals," Ekblom-Bak said. She explained that genes regulating the amount of glucoseand fat in the    9 start to shut down.
Even for people who  10   , spending long stretches of time sitting at a desk is still harmful. Tim Armstrong, a physical activity expert at the World Health Organization, said people who exercise every day —  11 still spend a lot of time sitting — might get more benefit if that exercise were spread across the day,    12 in a single bout.
That wasn't  13 news for Aytekin Can, 31, who works at a London financial company, and spends most of his days sitting     14   a computer. Several evenings a week, Can also teaches jiu jitsu, a Japanese martial art 15 wrestling, and also does Thai boxing.
"I'm sure there are some detrimental  16 of staying still for too long, but I hope that being    17 when I can helps," he said. "I wouldn't want to think the sitting could be   18 dangerous."
Still, in a study published last year that tracked more than 17,000 Canadians for about a dozen years, researchers found people who sat  19 had a higher death risk, independently of whether or not they exercised.
Figures from a US survey in 2003-2004 found Americans spend more than half their time sitting, from working at their desks to sitting in cars.
Experts said more research is needed to   20 just how much sitting is dangerous, and what might be possible to offset those effects.

Romance does not have to fizzle out（失败） in long-term relationships and progress into a companionship/friendship-type love, a new study has found. Romantic love can last a lifetime and lead to happier, healthier   1 .
"Many believe that  2 love is the same as passionate（多情的）love," said lead researcher Bianca P. Acevedo, PhD, then at Stony Brook University (currently at University of California, Santa Barbara). "It isn't. Romantic love has the intensity, engagement and sexual chemistry that passionate love has, minus the obsessive component（过度成分）. Passionate or obsessive love includes  3 of uncertainty and anxiety. This kind of love  4 drive the shorter relationships but not the longer ones."
These findings  5 in the March issue of Review of General Psychology, published by the American Psychological Association.
Acevedo and co-researcher Arthur Aron, PhD, reviewed 25 studies with 6,070 individuals in short- and long-term relationships to   6 whether romantic love is associated with more satisfaction. To determine this, they  7 the relationships in each of the studies as romantic, passionate (romantic with obsession) or friendship-like love and categorized them as long- or short-term.
The researchers looked at 17 short-term relationship studies, which included 18- to 23-year-old college students who were  8 , dating or married, with the average relationship lasting less than four years. They also  9 at 10 long-term relationship studies including middle-aged couples who were typically married 10 years or more. Two of the  10 ncluded both long- and short-term relationships in which it was possible to distinguish the two samples.
The review found that those who reported greater romantic love were more  11 in both the short- and long-term relationships. Companion-like love was only moderately  12 with satisfaction in both short- and long-term relationships. And those who reported greater passionate love in their relationships were more satisfied in the short term  13 to the long term.
Couples who reported more satisfaction in their relationships also  14 being happier and having higher self-esteem.
Feeling that a partner is "there for you"  15 or a good relationship, Acevedo said, and facilitates（促进） feelings of romantic love. On the other hand, "feelings of insecurity are generally associated with  16 satisfaction, and in some  17 may spark conflict in the relationship. This can manifest（表白） into obsessive love," she said.
This discovery may change people's  18 of what they want in long-term relationships. According to the authors, companionship love, which is what many couples see as the natural  19 of a successful relationship, may be an unnecessary compromise(妥协). "Couples should strive for love with all the trimmings（修剪）," Acevedo said. "And couples who've been together a long time and wish to get back their romantic edge should know it is an attainable（可达到的） goal that, like most good things in life,  20 energy and devotion."

Last year, I was speaking at a gathering of wealthy male investors. The organizers posted the   1   of a survey showing that only a small percentage of wealthy men believed their wives spent too much.
'What?'  2   one participant. 'Those guys have to be lying.'
There is no reliable  3   of who spends more among the rich: men or women. Both will say the other is the  4   spender.
A recent survey by Wilmington Trust, Campden Research and Relative Solutions proves the  5   . The companies polled 40 women (I know, that is more like a show of hands than 'survey'), each with a net worth of $25 million or more.
About half the respondents（受调查者） inherited（.继承） their  6   , a quarter  7   it from their husbands and the other quarter earned it  8   . That is roughly in line with other surveys of  9   women and the source of their money.
