The person behind you constantly kicks the back of your seat.Your talkative seatmate doesn’t understand your need for sleep.And the aircraft’s bathroom is a total mess.These situations can make even a short flight unbearable.Hopefully you don’t cause these unpleasant experiences for others.Instead,you can set an example by following these common airplane courtesies

Always recline your seat slowly.There’s nothing worse than suddenly being slammed in the knees by the seat in front of you.In addition,don’t keep your seat reclined for the entire flight.Always keep it upright position before going to the restroom(or anytime you leave your seat).

Avoid going to the bathroom during mealtime.Wait until the meal is done and all the food trays have been collected.It’s hard for passengers to stand up to let you pass when they still have their food trays.And when using the bathroom,always clean up after your-self-the next user will be grateful!

Keep your body--and your possessions-to yourself as much as possible so as not to crowd your in-flight seatmate(s).Share the armrest,especially on a long flight.Also,be careful not to kick or push on the seat in front of you,and don’t allow your children to do so either.

While some people enjoy chatting with other passengers during a flight,not everyone does.Some people may want to nap,read or work.If the conversation seems one―sided,take the hint.

If you are traveling with someone and want to chat,keep your voices low.If using electronic gadgets,keep the volume down.People can still hear through your headphones if the volume is too high.

When exiting the plane,if others are having trouble with their carry-on luggage,help them if you can.If you can’t help,wait patiently,and don’t push past people to get off the airplane.

On your next flight,remember that it all boils down to the golden rule.Treat others the way you want to be treated !

Fish contains lost of omega-3 fatty acids.These fatty acids have been shown to help prevent heart disease,lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of strokes.Researchers suggest that these benefits of eating fish far outweigh the risks of getting sick from contaminated fish.

No one likes germs.You wash your hands often and avoid sick people.But some of the germiest places are in your own home where you can’t avoid them!

Over 77,500 bacteria per square centimeter can live in your kitchen sink drain.More bacteria live in and around the sink itself.To get rid of them,clean the entire sink area with a disinfectant

Those wet clothes from your washer are not all that clean,especially if they include underwear.Use hot water and bleach to wash underwear as it contains E.colin(大肠秆菌).Put wet laundry in the dryer quickly so the bacteria do not multiply.

You’ll find plenty of germs outside your home too.

Lots of germs live on the buttons of your local ATM.According to www.health.corn,Chinese researchers tested 38 ATMs in downtown Taipei.They found that each button hosted an average of 1,200 germs.Use a hand sanitizer after using the ATM and after handling paper money too.

The bottoms of women’s purses house tens of thousands if not millions of bacteria.University of Arizona researchers discovered all kinds of different bacteria on purse bottoms.These included E.coli as well as bacteria that cause eye and skin infections.Women should wipe their purses every few days with a mild soap solution.

All kinds of germs live on shopping cart shopping cart handles.Lots of people touch the handles each day――and who knows where their hands have been! Carry disinfectant wipes and use them on the handles.That will kill nearly a11 germs.

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow,orange,red? If you do,you must be an optimist,a leader,an active person who enjoys life,people and excitement.Do you prefer grey and blues? Then you are probably quiet,shy and you would rather follow than lead.If you love green,you are strong-minded and determined.You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful.At least this is what psychologists(心理学家)tell us,and they should know,because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference,and the effect that colors have on human beings.They tell us that we don’t choose our favorite color as we grow up.If you happen to love brown,you did so as soon as you opened your eyes,or at least as soon as you could see clearly.

A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one,and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.On the other hand,black is depressing(压抑).Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.It is a fact that factory workers work better,harder,and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.

Remember,then,that if you feel low,you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things.Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike.And don’t forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.
