Simplifying is not necessarily about less. It can be about more: more time, more enjoyment, more accomplishment, and more of what (1)(profits) you. If you do a lot of things that don't bring you joy or support your long-term plan, then doing less of that kind of things makes sense because you can't (2)(preserve) everything. The purpose of simplifying is
to remove what's not important.To understand what should be (3)(discarded), try to think of activities and things as either assets or obligations. An asset is something that is valuable. Some (4)(corresponding) examples are stocks, bonds, buildings, land, gold, etc., but a little more broadly, an asset is anything that can strengthen and (5)(motivate) you, moving you closer to your goals. However, obligations are debts. An obligation is anything that (6)(weakens) you, moves
you farther from your goals, provides negative stress, creates anxiety, and decreases your health.Then how can you (7)(implement) the
idea of simplifying? Think about your daily activities and start with just one area. For example, you may begin with (8)(obligations) by
making a long list of your daily activities. Your list may (9)(revolve) around such routines as paying bills and planning a birthday party for a friend, etc. Do the activities get you closer to your goals? If not, (10)
(modify) the list. Remove what is unnecessary in order to
concentrate more on something important in your life.
Unit7
It's obvious that women have come a long way as successful professionals. Women in the workplace are (1)(flourishing) as an increased
number of women have made their presence felt in many industries and professions. The sector of the female workforce has (2)(expanded) with more and more strength and thus has its (3)(genuine) importance in the professional world.
Whether they like it or not, men have to accept that women are marching up the management ladder confidently and (4)(diplomatically).
Women used to be much more \number of female employees in (5)(comparison) to males.
Women today, on the other hand, have begun seeking their (6)(administrative) positions by using all their powers of intelligence. Men are hierarchical and (7)(jealous) of the \
allows women to get certain things based on their physical assets. Even though there is a(n) (8)(dispute) whether many professional
females got into positions of power by using their appearance to their advantage, the (9)(valid) fact is the majority of women have
worked hard to achieve their desired success.
Women were considered as (10)(bystanders) in the workplace
for many years and it was believed that the only jobs that they could handle were those of teachers or secretaries, but today's women can not only hold their own positions in the workplace, but they also have the dual task of raising their families.
Unit8
The animal rights movement is a social movement which seeks an end to using animals in the research, food, clothing, and entertainment industries, (1)
(hence) being called animal liberation. It advocates the idea that
the most basic interests of non-human creatures should be (2)(afforded) the same consideration as those of human beings.
Advocates (3)(lobby) for animal rights from different aspects,
ranging from the focus on animal suffering in laboratories to the argument that (4)(insists) on not casting animals as properties of human
beings. Despite the different approaches, advocates broadly (5)(consent) to the opinion that animals should be viewed as non-human members of the moral community and should be (6)(omitted)
from being food, clothing, entertainment, or research subjects. The idea of (7)
(awarding) rights to animals wins the support of several
prominent scholars.
However, some critics argue that animals are unable to enter into a social contract or moral (8)(compass) and for that reason cannot be
granted rights. Only humans have duties and, therefore, only humans have rights. There is nothing wrong or (9)(evil) about using animals
as resources so long as there is no unnecessary suffering. From within the animal rights movement itself, there has also been (10)(criticism) of certain forms of animal rights activism, in particular the destruction of fur farms and animal laboratories.
