26."Puppy Dog Eyes" May Have Evolved Just to Make Humans Melt - And It's Working
狗的"无辜眼神"可能是为了萌化人类才进化出来的，显然这招很奏效word/media/image4.gif
You know how when your dog wants something, she makes that face? You know the one - all beseeching, with eyes that seem to positively quiver with longing? You'd give her anything, right?
你知道你的狗狗想要某个东西时是故意做出那种表情的吗？你知道那种闪耀着渴望的乞求的眼神吗？她要什么你都愿意给，对吧？
It turns out that our response to canine looks of longing or love may be the very reason dogs can make them.
研究发现我们对犬类这种渴求或爱的眼神的回应可能导致狗狗有那种眼神。
New research has found that the facial muscles involved in making these expressions can only be found in dogs, not wolves - suggesting our furry best friends evolved the ability specifically to communicate with humans.
新的研究发现做这种表情牵动的面部肌肉只有狗狗有，狼就没有，这就表明我们的毛茸茸的好朋友专门为了跟人类沟通而进化出了这种能力。word/media/image4.gif
"The findings suggest that expressive eyebrows in dogs may be a result of human unconscious preferences that influenced selection during domestication," said behavioural psychologist Juliane Kaminski of the University of Portsmouth.
朴茨茅斯大学的行为心理学家Juliane Kaminski说："研究结果表明人类驯化狗狗时无意识的选择偏好导致狗狗有了富有表情的眉毛。"
"When dogs make the movement, it seems to elicit a strong desire in humans to look after them. This would give dogs that move their eyebrows more, a selection advantage over others and reinforce the 'puppy dog eyes' trait for future generations."
"狗狗做出这种表情时会激起人类强烈的照顾它们的欲望，这就促使狗狗更多地抖动眉毛，这也成为了一种选择优势，使这种‘撒娇眼神'成为了遗传给后代的特征。"
Previously, Kaminski and her team have demonstrated that dogs do actually make facial expressions as a means of communicating with humans, by studying their behaviour when a human was facing towards them, compared to facing away.
此前Kaminski和她的团队证实了狗狗的确会把面部表情作为和人类沟通的一工具，他们研究了人面向狗狗和面向别处时狗狗的行为。
The team found that dogs used facial expressions far more when the human was looking at them.
这个团队发现人看着狗狗时它们的面部表情更多。
27.A little encouragement goes a long way.
word/media/image4.gif
A week ago I started running again for the first time in over a year.
一周之前，我又开始长跑了，这是我罢跑一年多以后第一次跑步。
I've been pushing myself hard every single day.
这段时间以来，我每天都对自己非常苛刻
Today I was running on a trail, and I passed a guy.
我正在一条小路上跑步，偶然经过一个男人身边。
He made eye contact and gave me a thumbs up.
他和我对视了一样，还对我竖起了大拇指。
I was running back, and I passed him again.
我往回跑的时候，又遇到了他。
This time he said "keep it up buddy."
这次，他对我说，"加油，伙计！"
I don't know why, but that was like rocket fuel.
我不知道为什么，只觉得自己像是打了鸡血一般。
I was almost blown up,
我感到自己身体里元气满满，简直快要爆了
but that got me going and I finished strong.
但这也支持着我继续跑下去，最后出色的完成了跑步的路程。 word/media/image4.gif
I saw him again on my last lap.

28. live one day at a time.
I have the bad habit of skipping to the last pages of a book to see how it ends while I am still in the middle of it. This habit annoyed first my Mom, then my friends, and finally even my own daughter.
我有一个换习惯就是看书看到一半，就翻到最后看结局。我的母亲、我的朋友以及连我的女儿都很不喜欢我这样。word/media/image4.gif
Often my impatience wouldn't be confined just to the books I read but also to what they were reading as well. Finally one day my daughter told me in exasperation, "Dad please just read a book one page at a time like everyone else!"
我是个急性子，不光我自己读书这样，我还管着别人读书。最后我的女儿爆发了，"爸爸，你能不能像人家读书一样，每次就读一页！"
At times I haven't limited this bad habit to just books either. I have also tried to skip ahead in my own life and figure out what to do months and even years from now instead of embracing each day as God intended.
我的急性子不止在读书这个方面。在生活中我也时不时的会这样。想要知道未来几个月甚至几年要做什么，而不是像上天推崇的那样享受当下。
I knew that the book of my life wasn't done yet and that I had many pages left to go. Still, that didn't stop me from trying to write the ending half-way through.
我知道自己人生的这本书没有结束，还有很多页没有读。然而，我还会臆想结局。
Time and again, I would foolishly jump ahead and try to solve every conceivable problem before it happened so I could reach that storybook happily ever after ending.
有时我总是愚蠢地想象着书中的结局，杞人忧天般的考虑着还没发生的问题，我总是能很高兴的自动带入书中情节，不管书中结局怎样。word/media/image4.gif
Life, however, doesn't work like that. God loves to surprise us, and you never know what new problem, change, or opportunity each new day will bring.
然而生活不是这样。上天喜欢给我们惊喜。每一天你都不会知道自己会遇上什么问题，改变或者机会。
Recently when I found myself returning to that bad habit of rushing ahead and living in the future again, I found His truth coming from the lips of a special soul who gently told me I needed to "live one day at a time."
