Start with the fresh food. If you have some in the fridge, use?them first. Make a meal with what you have got instead of running out to the supermarket for something else. You’ll probably save more time using what’s on hand.
Learn to read the labels(标签）
“Best-before” and “use-by” dates are more important.?learn to know the different periods of food and know what foods are good for. For example, black bananas are proper for baking, fresh vegetables are good in soups, bread that is not fresh can be turned into small pieces.
Use the freezer (冷冻室）
The freezer can keep food fresh until you are ready cook them, and then store the cooked food until you’re ready to eat it. It’s also the best place for the remaining food. Mark the date of the food nearly, so it’s easy to find the food you need to eat first and will never leave them there for too long.
Shop with a list

Traditions are different from culture to culture. Something that sounds rude in one country may be the most polite thing to do in another. Here lists some of them.
Spitting
People think spitting on or at someone is one of the worst behaviors, and the police even consider it is a kind of attack. But in Africa, the members of the Maasai have a different way of seeing things. When polite children pass by, their elders usually spit at them. Of course, they do this with best wishes. They wish children to live a long life. They also spit on any gift they are about to give. When they move into a new house, they first go outside and spit in the four directions.
Flowers
Flowers are usually sent when people have parties, visit friends, thank others and so on. But sometimes it’s rude to give flowers. In Germany and France people use carnations(康乃馨)to decorate tombs(墓碑). Yellow flowers represent hate in Russian
and Iran, and purple flowers are bad luck in Italy and Brazil. Even the number of flowers can be rude. In France and America, an even(偶数) number of flowers is for happiness and odd numbers are for sadness.
Cleaning your plate
When we were young, our parents always told us to clean our plate and not to waste food. However, in some countries, a clean plate may make trouble for the host. In Philippines, North Africa, and some areas of China, the host will put more food on a plate once it is clean. Only when a guest leaves a little bit of food on his plate, the host will think he is full. Or a clean plate means the gust doesn’t get good service.
To do the right thing when we are in other places, we’d better respect and follow the traditions, even though we think they are strange.

Many places in the world need more fresh water. Every country is trying to find ways to turn salt water into fresh. Why aren’t there many factories like the Symi（锡米岛） factory?
In some places, the sun is not hot enough. Or it does not shine every day. In such places, other ways of heating sea water can be used. These ways cost more money, but they work faster than the sun. By boiling sea water with high heat, a lot of fresh water can be made quickly.
But heating is not the only way to get fresh water from salt water. Other ways are tried. One way is freezing. The fresh part of salt water freezes(冷至结冰)first. To get fresh water, the bits of ice are taken out.
Which way is the best ? The one that gives the most water for the least money. It may be a different way for each place.
Symi’s way seems very good for small, hot places. It doesn’t make very much water at a time. But the factory is easy to build and costs little. That is why people in many dry places talk about Symi !
