The Perfect Home Manicure

Home manicures can be great for self-pampering, but can become frustrating when the results are less-than-polished! The following tips will help you begin to perfect your manicures:

Tip 1: Start with clean nails. If yours carry traces of lotion or cuticle oil, the polish won't stick evenly and will chip more readily. Use a cotton swab dipped in alcohol or nail polish remover to clean the surface of your nails before you paint.

Tip 2: Begin with a base coat. A base coat smoothes out nails' ridges, allowing polish to go on more evenly. What's more, a base coat protects nails from staining when you wear dark polish colors.

Tip 3: Watch your brush. As you remove your brash from the bottle, carefully wipe one side along the bottle's neck. This removes excess, bubble-producing nail color.

Tip 4: Apply in minimal sweeps. The rule of thumb is to apply color from the cuticles to the tips in three swipes: one in the middle, and one on either side of the nail.

Tip 5: Clean up as you go. It's inevitable that you'll wind up with some polish on the skin around your nails. Use a wooden nail stick to quickly swipe away the excess as you go.

Tip 6: Finish it off with a top coat. A top coat seals the polish onto your nails and gives a high-shine finish that can also camouflage streaks or small bubbles.

According to the passage, what should you do when she begins to polish your fingernails?

A.Start with clean nails.

B.Begin with a base coat.

C.Clean up as you go.

D.Watch your brush.

Stress and pressure-filled days have become an almost normal part of contemporary life, du
e to the ever-growing demands of careers, home maintenance, parenting responsibilities, and community involvement. Because of this, there is a general consensus that just doing all that daily needs to be done is an emotionally intense and complex process. In fact, a wit once commented, "Living these days is like a grammar lesson: the past is perfect; the present is tense."

Technology makes it more difficult to separate ourselves from work. In times past, it was possible to have a stressful workplace, go home, and relax. Since less work was mental and more was physical, it was relatively easy to remove oneself —physically and mentally —from it. The sophisticated communication technology available today was not yet developed. In contrast to the "good old days," it is no longer possible for busy men and women to go home or go on vacation and truly "get away from it all." It becomes difficult to relax when you are carrying a beeper that may go off any minute. The result is higher levels of stress in men and women because technology enables others to "find them anywhere."

It is ironic that much technology is designed to make work easier and faster; presumably, this will make life easier for those who must operate the technology, but such is not the case. Witness the prophetic words of the great philosopher John Stuart Mill (1806- 1873): "It is questionable if all the mechanical inventions yet made have lightened the day's toil of any human being." How true this is despite the promise of "miraculous" new machinery ranging from a "new and more efficient" vacuum cleaner to the most sophisticated computer. The solution to living well lies not in new and better technology, but in the selective disuse of it so that life can be enjoyed in a more emotionally fulfilling way.

This passage mainly discusses ______.

A.modern man's life that is filled with stress and pressure

B.new technology that has failed to make modern man's life comfortable

C.the negative impact of advanced technology on men's psychological well-being

D.the contrast between contemporary life and life in the past

The new office? Where would you rather do your work: a nice coffeehouse or a busy office?

The new office?

Where would you rather do your work: a nice coffeehouse or a busy office? More and more, people are able to do their work with a good cup of coffee in the friendly environment of their local coffeehouse. With a powerful laptop and a mobile phone, it isn't necessary to be tied to a desk any more.

Next time you're out for a coffee, look around you. That man in the comer could be an advertising executive writing an advertisement that you'll be seeing on TV in the near fusture. That woman in a dark coat talking to a man could be discussing his pension. And the young woman typing away could be finishing a business proposal! it's certainly a new world, and you could join it more easily than you think.

According to a survey, 7.6 million Americans now work at home or away from a traditional office. Many organizations realize that people like working away from the office and are trying to create incentives to encourage more people to telecommute. As well as making workers happier, it reduces pollution as fewer people travel to work.

But it's not a perfect life. One telecommuter, who finds he can concentrate better in a coffeehouse than at home, complained about the lack of electrical outlets. Another person at work on her computer said that she didn't like to feel under pressure to buy something. Both admitted, however, that these were minor difficulties compared with the problems they used to face in a big office.

Coffeehouses provide the sense of community that the office used to provide, but without the stress. They may be great places to relax, concentrate, meet friends and business contacts, but they are in business, too, and they rely on customers buying their products. But where else could you get your work done, enjoy doing it, have good company, great coffee, and all for less than the cost of driving to work every. day?

With new technology, you don't need to be at the office to do your job.

A.right

B.wrong

C.Doesn't say

Art avid Bush supporter who already has 25 shopping malls to his name, Congel himself is n
ot a man you would expect to entertain an eccentric clean-energy vision. The project--Destiny U.S.A., a mega-mall-- first seized him in 2001, soon after 9/11--and after the project was under way--during a visit to the D-Day beaches in Normandy. "There I was looking at those pure white graves of tens of thousands of kids that died for freedom," Congel reflects, sitting on the veranda of his 6,000-acre farm just outside Syracuse, where he has imported Russian wild boar and other exotic game for bunting. "Today our kids are dying in a war for oil. Petroleum addiction is destroying our country, our economy, our environment."

Several months after returning from Normandy, Congel announced that not a drop of fossil fuel would be used in the making of Destiny. Almost overnight the mission of the project changed. It went from the mall that could save the depressed economy of Syracuse to the mall that could save America by establishing a new model for green commercial development. But will shoppers actually want to travel from far and wide to a little known city' s eco-friendly mall? And even with the green tax benefits, it is vastly more expensive to power Destiny with renewable sources than with conventional grid energy--so where' s the financial logic?

Here' s where Congel' s schemes to create "monster profits" come in. Intel, Clear Channel, Cisco, Sony and Microsoft are among the brands that Destiny has recruited to supply its retail, entertainment, security and energy technologies. Many suppliers are planning to build local offices that will aid the Syracuse economy, and all have agreed to participate in the on-site development of new technologies that could be tested on the captive audience of mall-goers. (Congel will be a co-owner of the patents on all inventions.) A group of companies hopes to perfect a new wireless radio frequency identification technology to enable customers to purchase items instantly without waiting in line. The Department of Homeland Security and A.D.T., a home security company, have discussed testing new devices that will track all visitors entering and leaving the mall.

Congel is a man who ______.

A.does not care about politics

B.is a little idealistic but a real and rich business man

C.indulges himself in environmental protection

D.has been harboring the plan since he was a young man
