times a day often inviting germs 病菌病菌 to enter our mouth nose and eyes Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle And most important wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds 3 How often do you think about fighting germs Finding Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should Step Be aware of germs Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge

our water supply in less obvious ways You may wonder how paving 铺砌铺砌 a road can lead to less useable fresh water A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers It comes from underground The more roads and parking lots we pave the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages 短缺短缺 Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts 干旱干旱 than areas with more rainfall but in any case good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our

live but there s a lot we can do to lower the number You can take steps to save water in your home To start with use the same glass for your drinking water all day Wash it only once a day Run your

old Sophia Giorgi said she was thinking of volunteering to help the Make A Wish Foundation 基金会基金会 nobody understood what she was talking about But Sophia knew just how important Make A Wish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one of her best friends We were interested in finding out more so we went along to meet Sophia listen to what she had to say

young boy called Chris who had been dreaming for a long time of becoming a policeman Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris s dream come true so with everybody s help Chris only seven years old at the time had been a policeman for a day When people saw how delighted Chris was when his dream came true they decided to try and help other sick children too and that was the beginning of Make A Wish explained Sophia Sophia also told us the Foundation tries to give children and their families a special happy time A Make A Wish volunteer visits the families and asks the children what they would wish for if they could have anything in the world Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true They do this

People are ruder today because they are rushed and more time poor than ever before says Patsy Rowe Manners have fallen off the radar 雷达雷达 Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wonder more people don t wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint 抱怨抱怨 about the noise Here are some examples of rudeness Some people prefer to do almost everything over the internet To them dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary step backward It feels very slow because humans don t work at 4G speeds When you have dinner with friends you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life changing news so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with What is worse some people even tend to send anonymous 匿名的匿名的 rude messages by email However rudeness is never acceptable Don t assume it is OK to be rude if the person you re in touch with won t recognize you If you have something awful to say have the courage to face the person and say it write a letter or email and sign it or forget it Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting We shouldn t blame technology for our shortcomings Technology is here to help us but we should not allow it to take over our lives An important step ia

popularity 流行流行 of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War brought the tango to North America It reached Japan in 1926

raising your hand all may increase a feeling of happiness according to a study from Wake Forest University Participants 参与者参与者 followed the development of their moods for two weeks and reported feeling happier when they were more outgoing and less happy when reserved or withdrawn The editors of gave 5 or 20 to 46 strangers by chance Half the group was told to spend the money on themselves
