9．Maybe ten-year-old Elizabeth put it best when she said to her father，"But，Dad，you can't be healthyif you're dead．"
Dad，in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run，had forgotten to wear his safety belt--a mistake 75% of US population make every day．The big question is why．
There have been many myths about safety belt ever since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago．The following are three of the most common．
Myth Number One：It's best to be"thrown clear"of a serious accident．
Truth：Sorry，but any accident serious enough to"throw you clear"is able going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing．And chances are you'll have traveled through a windshield （挡风玻璃）or door to do it．Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty-five times in cases where people are"thrown clear"．
Myth Number Two：Safety-bets"trap"people in cars that are burning or sinking in water．
Truth：Sorry again，but studies show that people knocked unconscious （昏迷） due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents．People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having in these accidents．People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situation，not to be trapped in them．
Myth Number Three：Safety belts aren't needed at speeds of less than 30miles per hour （mph）．
Truth：When two cars traveling at 30mph hit each other，an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to diving headfirst into the ground from a height of 10metres．

8．If you're thinking about reaching for another biscuit to get you through the working day，think again．Eating unhealthy snacks at your desk makes you pile on almost half a stone a year，a survey has revealed．The waistlines of women suffer the most，with the average female putting on 6lb 3oz-the equivalent of a whole dress size-while men see their weight increase by 5lb 2oz．
The report into our eating habits found that，on average，we eat at least two snacks a day，with 30 percent of us tucking into three or more．Women admit eating more than men，with a further 13 percent of ladies scoffing four or more snacks a day．The research，by The Village Bakery，found biscuits are the most common vice，with 42 percent regularly opening a pack，closely followed by chocolate （38 percent），crisps （32 percent） and cakes （13 percent）．
And office workers are worse than most．Cakes and biscuits brought into work by colleagues are one of the main temptations office staff give in to．In addition，33 percent admit reaching for nibbles to cope with stress and 22 percent say they need a sugar rush to perk them up in the afternoon．
Simon Staddon，of The Village Bakery，said："We were aware timepoor office workers can find it difficult to easily access a nutritional lunch．But we were really shocked by the extent to which‘quick fix'lunches are affecting weight gain and general wellbeing．Popular midafternoon pickmeups such as biscuits，chocolate and cakes are high in calories，fat and full of sugar，all of which affect your blood sugar levels and ultimately lead to weight gain．"
The survey of 2，000 British men and women suggests we are often ashamed of our unhealthy eating.24 percent of Britons admit lying about how many snacks they eat with 33 percent of women lying，compared to 20 percent of men．Unfortunately，it's as if we are not likely to do anything positive to counteract the sweet treats．

1．I was waiting in line to register a letter in the post office at Thirty-third Street and Eighth Avenue in New York．I noticed that the clerk appeared to be bored with the job-weighing envelopes，handing out stamps，and issuing receipts-the same dull work year after year．
So I said to myself，"I am going to try to make that clerk like me．Obviously，to make him like me，I must say something nice，not about myself，but about him．"So I asked myself，"What is there about him that I can honestly admire？"That is sometimes a hard question to answer，especially with strangers．However，in this case，it happened to be easy．I instantly saw something I admired very much．
So while he was weighing my envelope，I remarked with enthusiasm，"I certainly wish I had your hair．"
He looked up and his face was full of smiles．"Well，it isn't as good as it used to be，"he said modestly．We carried on a pleasant conversation and the last thing he said to me was，"Many people have admired my hair．"
I'll bet that person went out to lunch that day walking on air．I'll bet he went home that night and told his wife about it．I'll bet he looked in the mirror and said，"It is a beautiful head of hair．"
There is one all-important law of human conduct．If we obey that law，we shall almost never get into trouble．In fact，that law，if obeyed，will bring us countless friends and lasting happiness．But the very instant we break the law，we shall get into endless trouble．The law is this：Always make the other person feel important．
