Every year, there are many people going home by long-distance buses during the Spring Festival and the Tomb-sweeping Day . There are more walkers on their way home or to work on the roads. So there are more and more traffic accidents on the roads. Thanks to the efforts of the traffic police, it is said that this year the number of traffic accidents across China was 25.2 percent fewer than the year of 2018 during the three-day Tomb-sweeping Day.

Tomb-sweeping Day, also known as Qingming Festival. It is an important occasion for Chinese to honor their ancestors£¨×æÏÈ£©. Most people go home in memory of£¨¼ÍÄtheir ancestors on that day. About 9.78 million Chinese visited cemeteries to honor their ancestors or relatives during the holiday. A few people also spent the three-day holiday on leisure trains. So transportation safety is a big problem. On the other hand, it is said that Chinese have made 112 million trips during the holiday, up 10.9 percent from last year¡¯s holiday. For the traffic accidents, some people lost their lives. This year, traffic accidents caused 10 deaths during the three-day Tomb-sweeping Day. The fewer traffic accidents are all from the efforts of the police and our government. With the development of society and the government¡¯s efforts, I believe everything will change better.

Some people may be good at talking. They always have successful conversations with others. But some don't because they are shy. In fact, everyone is a little shy. This article may help you overcome your shyness.

Put yourself out there. This seems clear¡ªthe best way to meet people is to actively look for places out where you can meet people! Go to the dance party at your school or the Christmas get-together. Try to meet at least one person by the end of the night.

Practice talking. Even though this may sound strange. Stand in front of a mirror or close your eyes, and then imagine yourself talking to someone. This way is very helpful.

Show your talents. Making new friends is a great way to overcome shyness. Ask your friends to introduce you to their friends. Although that may sound useless, it really isn't. For example, if you like art, you can consider painting something for a party. It will be easier to make you feel comfortable. On the other hand don't be afraid to discover some new interests.

Change your shy look. Take a moment to look at yourself. Are you the kind of person who wears dark clothes? This makes you very unapproachable. You should wear brighter clothes. Go from wearing black, brown, and blue to wearing green, yellow and orange. Remember, you don't always have to change your look. You can just simply make your expression friendlier. Let people know that it's OK to talk with you.
