It was unfortunate that,after so trouble-free an arrival,he should stumble(磕绊)in the dark as he was rising and severely twist his ankle on a piece of rock.After the first shock the pain became bearable,and he gathered up his parachute(降落伞)before limping into the trees to hide it as best as he could.The hard ground and the deep darkness made it almost impossible to do this efficiently.The pine needles lay several inches deep,so he simply piled them on top of the parachute,cutting the short twigs that he could feel around his legs,and spreading them on top of the needles.He was not sure if it would stay buried,but he could do nothing else about it.
After limping for some distance from his parachute he began to make his way downhill through the trees.He had to find out where he was,and then decide what to do next.But walking downhill on a rapidly swelling ankle soon proved to be almost beyond his power.He dragged his legs with increasing difficulty,walking in long side-way movements across the slope,which meant taking more steps but less painful ones.By the time he cleared the trees and reached the valley,day was breaking.Mist hung in soft sheets across the fields.Small cottages and farm houses grouped around a village church,the spire(尖顶)on its top pointing high into the cold winter air to greet the morning.
“I can’t go much further,”John Harding thought.“Someone is bound to find me.What can I do?I must get a rest before I go on.They’ll look for me high up there in the mountains where the plane crashed.I bet they’re out looking for it already.They’re sure to find the chute in the end.So they’ll know I wasn’t killed and must be somewhere.They’ll think I’m hiding up there in the trees and rocks and look for me there.I’ll go down to the village.If I’m lucky my foot will be good enough by the evening and I can manage to get to the border.”
He could hear the faint echoes of voices far above him on the mountainside,startling him after great silence.Looking up,he saw lights like pinpoints moving across the face of the mountain in the gray light.The road was deserted,and he struggled along,still almost invisible in the first light,easing his aching foot wherever he could,avoiding stones and rough places,and limping quietly and painfully towards the village.He reached the church at last.A great need for peace almost drew him inside,but he knew that would not do.Instead,he limped along its walls towards a very old building a short distance from the church.It seemed to have stood there forever,as if it had grown out of the hillside.It had the same air of timelessness as the church.John Harding pushed open the heavy wooden door and slipped inside.

tead of doing your work, you check Facebook or do some on line shopping.This is called procrastination, and it affects everyone.So how can you stop procrastinating?
We often procrastinate because a task seems too big, or impossible to achieve.Try breaking down the task into smaller pieces.For example, instead of thinking,“I need to finish this essay by 10 p.m.tonight ” tell yourself,“I’ m going to make a short outline, fill that in, and then look for quotes.”
Another important factor is your environment, isn’t it? If there are too many distractions in your work space, you may be tempted to procrastinate more.Are there any things in your work space (for example, a TV) that could be causing you to lose focus?
Making a timeline with goals and deadlines is a great way to stop yourself from procrastinating.
However, it is important to make your deadlines realistic so that you can be sure you’ll stick to them.
Some people like to wait for the perfect time to start a task, while the perfect time is often now.Try something called the Two-Minute Rule to help you get started.This idea comes from David Allen’ s best-selling book, Getting Things Done.It states that.if something takes less than two minutes, such as washing your dishes after a meal, then you should do it now.
1.Procrastination means().

What is it about a dog's gaze that makes it so charming? A new study by Japanese scientist Miho Nagasawa seems to have found the answer, and it has to do with something called the cuddle(爱抚)chemical.
The cuddle chemical has another, more scientific name: oxytocin.Oxytocin is a substance in the blood that encourages bonding.Levels of oxytocin increase, for example, when a mother feeds her newborn baby.According to Nagasawa's study, the same is true when we look deeply into the eyes of a dog.
The results of this study can tell us a lot about the history of the bond between humans and dogs.It all started somewhere tens of thousands of years ago.Scientists believe that wolves used to follow humans who were hunting large animals.The wolves would eat the food left behind by the humans.
Humans realized that they could use the wolves to help with the hunt, and eventually both species began to work together toward survival.
Over time, the wolves that interacted with the humans began to change.They became more loyal to their human partners.The wolves and humans started to depend on each other and bond with each other.These changes are what caused some of the wolves to turn into what we now know as dogs, a new specie evolved to better survive in their environment.
This process depended a great deal on the bond humans formed with them.And according to Nagasawa's study, this bond was formed with the help of oxytocin, the cuddle chemical.
