27、ked harder. Without doubt it was my work. The hot sun had caused the dough to double in size and the fermenting yeast (酵母 )made the surface shake and sigh as though it were breathing. It looked like some unknown being from outer space. I could see why Doug was so shaken. I had to admit what the “liv

The study also found that sad people were better at stating their case through written arguments, which Forgas said showed that a mildly negative mood may actually promote a more concrete, accommodative and ultimately more successful communication style.

As he lay in his hospital room, an idea suddenly hit him. All he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the best use of it. By
