Along the road of life, you make many decisions (决定). So you should be careful of decision making.You can’t ignore (忽略) the importance of decision making. Even one small choice can make a big difference. However, for every choice (选择), big or small, it’s not easy to make the right decision. Here is some advice for you. ②Don’t make decisions when you are excited, angry, or sad. If you can’t stay calm, put off making the decision until you’re thinking clearly. ③Most decisions are made better when you have enough information. Do some research to find out as much as you can about your decision. ④There are usually many choices for you, so try to list all the choices. And don’t make decisions until you’ve got a full list of your choices. If you have problems thinking of all the choices, ask your family or friends for help. ⑤The best way to make a decision is to think about how you’re going to feel about it in the future.

An Interesting Picture ①When you wake up every morning, you need to decide what to wear, what to eat, how to go, whether to do exercise and so on. Along the road of life, you make many decisions (决定). So you should be careful of decision making.You can’t ignore (忽略) the importance of decision making. Even one small choice can make a big difference. However, for every choice (选择), big or small, it’s not easy to make the right decision. Here is some advice for you. ②Don’t make decisions when you are excited, angry, or sad. If you can’t stay calm, put off making the decision until you’re thinking clearly. ③Most decisions are made better when you have enough information. Do some research to find out as much as you can about your decision. ④There are usually many choices for you, so try to list all the choices. And don’t make decisions until you’ve got a full list of your choices. If you have problems thinking of all the choices, ask your family or friends for help. ⑤The best way to make a decision is to think about how you’re going to feel about it in the future. Warren Buffett’s 10/10/10 Rule can help you make decisions. It’s really easy and you just remember the three questions: How will you feel about your decision in 10 minutes? How about in 10 months? How about in 10 years? ⑥The advice is useful to make a decision. But if a decision you made turns out to be wrong, remember life is not always what you want it to be. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 11.
