丰富生活

Travel 旅行

Most of you want to travel the world, see new things, and meet new people.

大多数人渴望周游世界,接触新事物,结交新朋友。

But statistics show that the average mother in the U.S. will start a family at age 25, meaning that your travel options will become quite limited for a number of years after you start having children.

但数据显示,美国妇女一般在25岁时开始做母亲,这意味着此后的数年之内,你的旅行机会相当受限。

And even if you do tell yourself that you're going to travel, most of you won't. Don't put it off. Get out there and see theplaces you desire most.

即使你不断告诉自己,你有出游的想法,但大多实现不了。不要犹豫,收拾行装,去欣赏你最心仪的美景吧。

Learn a new language 学门新语言

In this day and age, knowing a second (or third)language is no longer just a hobby, it can help you in your career.

当今时代,懂二种或三种语言不再是爱好,你的职业生活将因此受益。

Being able to communicate with people from multiple cultures not only makes good business sense, but expands your personal growth.

具备与多种文化交流的能力不仅能铸就你良好的商业意识,还是你个人成长的助力。
