大家好，我是Yuli。这是我的第6期播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊“焦虑”的话题。
现代生活大家的生活和工作压力都很大，很容易就感到焦虑。每个人的焦虑可能不太一样。学生会因为考试而焦虑，也会因为毕业找工作而焦虑。上班族会因为工作感到焦虑，可能是工作太多、太难，或者是竞争太激烈。父母会因为教育孩子而焦虑，担心孩子的健康、学习等等。  
除了以上这些焦虑，更多新的焦虑也开始出现在我们的生活。例如，“容貌焦虑”。容貌焦虑是指一个人经常觉得自己不够好看，特别是在网上我们经常看到各种美女帅哥。还有“身材焦虑”，一个人对自己的身材不满意，总是觉得可以再瘦一点儿，想要有一个明星那样的好身材。还有一个很常见的“财务焦虑”，也就是大家对金钱的担心。担心自己的收入不稳定，担心自己永远买不了房。
对于各种焦虑，你是怎么解决的呢？我以前也是个很容易焦虑的人，不过现在我越来越放松了。因为发生了两个很大的改变。
第一个改变是，我不去担心未来的事情了。焦虑的时候，我是在为还没有发生的事情担心，我的大脑会一直告诉自己一些很可怕的故事。但是，那都不是真的。现在，我努力去做我想做的事情，但是我不去担心结果了。
第二个改变是，停止和别人的比较。如果我们一直跟别人比较，那不管我们的生活多好，我们都会觉得不满足，因为永远有比我们好的人。所以，不要比较，知道自己想要什么，专注在那里就可以了。
你最大的焦虑是什么呢？你是怎么解决的？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

Being a picky eater can mean a number of different things. It may describe someone who doesn't like to try new foods, or someone who prefers plain meals. It can also refer to someone who eats quite a narrow range of foods.

It's quite common for children to be picky eaters. They may only like their pasta without sauce, or their bread cut in a certain shape.

Parents often feel they're to blame when their children are picky eaters. But according to a new study, picky eating is mostly caused by our genes.

Researchers in the UK looked at data from identical and non-identical twins who had been followed from birth since 2007.

Identical twins share 100% of their genes, while non-identical twins share half, on average. Studying these twins allowed the researchers to compare the eating habits of people who were genetically the same and those who weren't, but still grew up in the same home together.

More than 4,800 twins were included in the study. Their parents completed questionnaires about how picky their children were aged 16 months, then again at the ages of 3, 5, 7 and 13.

Not all parents completed the questionnaires as their children got older, but from the results, the researchers found that the eating habits of identical twins were much more similar than those of non-identical twins.

They also found that genetic variation explained 60% of the differences in food pickiness at 16 months, and 74% between the ages of 3 and 13. Meanwhile, shared environment only explained 15% to 26% of these differences, and the environmental effect was strongest when children were younger.

However, the researchers added that environmental effects are still important: parents can still influence their children's eating habits by eating together as a family, and by offering a wide variety of different foods, for example.

Have you ever wondered how Business English students acquire the language skills necessary to excel in the professional realm? As an enthusiastic educator, my goal is to equip these students with the tools they need to thrive in the business world. In my classroom, I immerse them in industry-specific vocabulary, exploring diverse sectors like technology, healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. By delving into functional areas such as marketing, finance, and human resources, we unravel the language used in different business roles. Additionally, we navigate the terminology associated with vital business processes like supply chain management and customer service. Through engaging discussions, practical activities, and contextual application, I empower my students to confidently communicate with colleagues, clients, and partners, ensuring their success in the competitive professional landscape. Together, we embark on a journey of language acquisition, enabling them to make a lasting impact in the business world
