Scientists think that there are positive sides to daydreaming. What do you think those positive sides are?

Sometimes people use daydreaming as a way to avoid real-life situations. Do you agree that is a good

thing or a bad thing?

1.Daydreaming is absolutely a good thing for us, for it can avoid abysmal situations within a short period of

time. During the daydreaming, our brain cope with the problems in the potential situation, which will help

us to deal with the problem wisely and rationally. On that account, I consider that daydreaming is a good

thing for our humans.

2.I think using daydreaming as a way to avoid real-life situations is a good thing. You cannot do everything

you want in real life but can do whatever you want in your daydream. Using daydreaming to accomplish

something you can't do in the real world might give you some satisfaction or maybe it's a way to release

your stress. I think using daydreaming can avoid some embarrassing situations in the real world or prevent

something bad. To conclude, I think using daydreaming to avoid real life situations is a good thing.

People might think daydreaming is an act of evasion. But taking a break from the predicament in front of you is not entirely a bad thing. Daydreaming can help us think more holistically about how to solve a problem. Obsessed with the present is to drill the tip of the horn.

3.From my point of view, I thought that daydreaming appropriately is a good thing . Although it's a way to

escape our real-life situations, it's still a method to relax. In our daydreams, we don't need to worry about

the reality. We can do anything we want if we want . After daydreaming, we may have a new motion to

pursue our original goal. The only thing we need to consider is about the time we spend on daydreaming.

In addition to daydreaming, we still have to face the reality aspect.

4.In my opinion, daydreaming is actually a good thing. While daydreaming may sound like a waste of time,

it can boost our imaginations. In the world of daydreaming, many things will be fantasized into very

beautiful things, as the video says, will make us related to positive emotions. And in this already very hard

world, sometimes it's a good thing to escape to the fantasy world to make yourself happy.

Are we running out of clean water?

图片
main idea: Clean water is limited, so we should use it more sparingly. connection We use water for many things like farming, bathing and more. Therefore, if water resources are scarce, it will cause a lot of inconvenience to our lives. highlight: 1. But despite the water covering 71% of the planet's surface, more than half the world's population endures extreme water scarcity for at least one month a year. 2.Our farms drain the equivalent of 3.3 billion Olympic-sized swimming pools every year, all of it swallowed up by crops and livestock to feed Earth's growing population. 3.On a personal level, reducing food waste is the first step to reducing water use, since one-third of the food that leaves farms is currently wasted or thrown away.  4.Our planet may never run out of water, but it doesn't have to for individuals to go thirsty. 5.If we adopt vegetarian lifestyle, we would decrease approximately 30% of the water footprint. date:2022/10/07 members attended: 張誠真、敖雙卉、褚軒...
