These days our society develops rapidly and forces people to rush. It appears that people have got used to being in a hurry. However,it’s better for people to take their time and live their life at a slower pace than to hurry to get things done.

The main reason that convinces us to oppose doing work in a hurry is the possibility of doing wrong in a rush. When people do their jobs or take action in a hurry,they can’t make a sound decision and probably regret later. As the saying goes, "Haste makes waste." We should think carefully before making a decision and do our work less quickly. We should not make mistakes by doing work hurriedly.

Slowing down the pace of life helps people enjoy their life better. For example, taking a train to some place certainly will take more time than taking a plane. However, taking a train makes people have enough time to get to know a lot of new friends. Besides, it allows people to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. On the contrary, being in a hurry will make us lose chances of enjoying our life.

Finally, slower life pace provides better health condition for us. As is known to all, taking action in a hurry bothers people and raises their stress. People think if they are not in a hurry, they will become a loser and that annoys them. But being in a hurry can hurt people both physically and mentally. According to some studies, people who have a slower pace suffer fewer diseases,tend to be happier and live much longer than those whose life is tense, even if the former finish work more slowly than the latter.

In short, working quickly will bring about more material benefits to make our society more advanced. Yet, much stress can’t bring enjoyment, friends and health, which are much more important than money and other material advantages. Therefore, take your time and live your life at a slower pace.

Is the traditional family dinner a thing of the past?In today’s households where both parents go to work and kids have busy schedules, an array of afterschool activities and much homework, finding time for a gathering at the table seems impossible. Yet,studies have shown time and again that eating together has multiple benefits for family members, especially children.

According to a number of reports issued by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University,children who eat at least five times a week with their family are at lower risk of developing poor eating habits,weight problems or alcohol dependency,and tend to perform better academically than their peers who frequently eat alone or away from home.

Eating together as a family is not just about food and nutrition. "Food has become so easily and cheaply available that we no longer appreciate its significance, "says Professor Robin Fox, who teaches anthropology at Rutgers University in New Jersey. "We have to rediscover its importance and its value." Sharing a meal with loved ones should be considered a special event, which can almost take the form of a ceremony, as it was practiced by our ancestors, for whom finding food was a constant struggle.

Besides appreciation for the value of food,there are also many social elements that come into play when families share meals,says Miriam Weinstein,author of The Surprising Power of Family Meals. The dinner table can be the perfect environment where kids learn how to conduct conversations,observe good manners,serve others,listen,solve conflicts and compromise.

Of course, there is no guarantee that the simple act of eating at home surrounded by family will save children from developing unhealthy lifestyles or making regrettable choices down the road. It may not make them more virtuous (品行端正的)or socially more responsible. But it can form a basis for a lot of things.

Scientists in London say they have found the best diet for both humans and the planet. They told Reuters that if the world followed the so called "planetary health" diet, each year more than 11 million early deaths could be prevented. Scientists say that the way we produce and eat food is very bad for the planet. And they claim the best diet can reduce greenhouse gases and save more land,water and animals.

Tim Lang,a professor at University of London,co-led the research. He told Reuters,"The food we eat and how we produce it determine the health of people and the planet,and we are currently getting this seriously wrong." Lang added that the world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion by 2050. If we want to feed everyone,we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by "improving food production and reducing food waste".
