The idea that red means stop and green means go has influenced our lives in more ways than just traffic signals(信号). We have been taught from a young age that the color red means danger and green means it's okay to move forward. But why were those colors chosen for traffic lights in the first place? For something we have to look at every day, why couldn't they have been prettier colors?

Well, it's important to know that before traffic lights for cars, there were traffic signals for trains. At first, railway companies used red to mean stop, white to mean go, and green to mean warn. As you could imagine, trains ran into a few problems with white meaning go. For example, one train mistook a bright star for a white light and something unexpected happened. Because of that, railway companies finally moved green meaning go and used yellow to mean warm. And it's been that way ever since.

Red has always been a color that mean danger, long before cars were even around. This most likely started because it's the color with the longest wavelength(波长) so it can be seen somewhere farther than other colors.

Bu, believe it or not, yellow was once used to mean stop. Back in the 1900s, some stop signs were yellow because it was too hard to see a red sign in a poorly lit area. Finally, highly reflective materials (高反射材料) were developed and red stop signs were born. Since yellow can be seen well at all times of the day, school zones, some if signs, and school buses continue to be printed yellow.

So next time you are impatiently waiting at a traffic light, don't get so mad at then, they've certainly come a long way.

The ps1990s generation is often described as self-centered and always asking for help. However, research results have painted a rather different picture. The post-19909s9 generation is independent, strong-minded and hardworking, according to a Peking University report.

When it comes to learning and working, over 60 percent think their own interests are more important than others' opinions. Most of them see successful businessmen as their idols(偶像). But it's not because they are rich. "Their strong belief in themselves and never-give-up spirit have won the hearts of the generation." the report said.

In addition, the post-1990s generation has a strong sense of social responsibility. Many of them have taken pan in volunteer work. They also try to be responsible by studying hard and behaving(表现得体) online.

In the UK, many of the post-1990s generation have given up the drinking habits that the past generations had. The Telegraph noted. Most of them now have healthier hobbies, such as kitting (编织) and cooking.

It's hard to find time for a hobby if you are going out drinking, Kate Payne, author of The Hip Girl's Guide to Homemaking, told The Telegraph.

Changes in their hobbies have also helped them learn good manners. The 2013 Youth Justice Sati tics report in the UK showed that young people are less nude and noisy in public.

However, a generation's tails don't belong l0 every single person in it. "It's what you do that can make you the kind of person you want to be," said Cheng Dongfeng, director of the youth ideological and moral education center of West Anhui University.

Online eating shows are from South Korea and have become popular quickly. Many hosts of such shows become popular for their ability to eat a lot of food. But these shows have also received criticism(批评) for their waste of food. While some hosts actually eat the food, (other) do not.

CCTV exposed(曝光) several Chinese hosts who were pretending(假装) to eat large amounts of food while on cameras, but actually later threw it away,

To stop this, many video and live streaming platforms(直播平台), including Douyin, Kuaishou and Bilibili, (remove) videos that show food waste and have promoted (宣传) messages to "stop food waste and eat reasonably".

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, about a (three) of the world's food— 1.3 billion tons (waste) every year. In China alone, 50 million tons of food ends in landfills (垃圾堆) every year, according to Beijing News.

I hate being overweight. My husband said he (not mind), but I knew he still hoped I had a beautiful body. Everything from my waist (腰部) to my legs was overweight. Finally, just after Christmas last year, I decided that something had to be done.

I met Dr. Wallace, and she told me I had to stop (eat) fast foods like pizza, hamburgers, whatever I could get. But 1 said to myself at the start that I would try my best (do) it and I did. I even gave up the booze something I used to have two (glass) of it with dinner.

My best friend, Rachel Waterman, said I had to walk 10,000 steps every day. That was very hard for me at the beginning. Now I never go to bed until I've done my 10,000 steps.

Six months has passed, and I made it. The weight is wonderful-I feel like a different person now, I am so proud of myself because everyone thought I wouldn't be able to make it (include) myself.

I sat down in my scat waiting for the plane to take off. A line of came over and filled all the empty scats.

After a while, we were told that sack lunches(袋装午 餐) were available for S5. As I reached for my wallet to buy one, I overheard a soldier ask another he planned to buy lunch. "No, that seems like a lot of money for just a sack lunch."

I looked around. of the soldiers were buying lunch. I walked to the back of the plane and handed the flight attendant(服务人员)a S50 bill. "Take a lunch to all those soldiers."

After I finished eating, I went to the restroom. A man stopped me. "I saw what you did. I want to be of it. Here, take this. "He handed me S25.

Soon after I returned to my seat, the Flight Captain came to me and said: "I want to shake your hand. I was a military pilot(军队飞行员). Once someone bought me a lunch. It was an act of I never forgot:" I was embarrassed when applause (掌声) was heard from all of the passengers.

Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch (伸展) my legs. A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his hand wanting to shake mine. He left another S25 in my hand.

When we landed in Chicago, I picked up my belongings waiting to get of a man passed by and put something in my pocket. Another S25.

I walked over to the soldiers and handed them S75. These soldiers were giving their all for our . I could only give them a couple of meals. It seemed so little.

According to the Chinese lunar calendar, the year staring on Feb 12 will be the Year of the Ox. Many Chinese people believe it will be a good year, partly because they have a strong liking for the animal itself. So, let's learn something about the ox in the Year of the Ox.

In Chinese culture the ox stands for the spirit of hard work and unselfishness. We often say that the ox is enduring(忍耐的) and generous(慷慨的). The term "Iaohuangniu" describes those who help others and ask nothing for themselves. Just as Chinese writer Lu Xun once wrote," Cows eat grass, but give milk".

But in the West, people have a different opinion about the animal," Bull-headed" people are very stubborn (固执的) and will not listen to advice.

If you scorch on the internet for the word" bull", you'll also find other interesting English expressions.

For example. if someone behaves" like a bull in a china shop", he or she behaves in a clumsy(笨的) manner when they should be more careful.

With the new year coming, we hope that all of us will work just as hard as the ox does. Avoid anything that might make you as angry as" a red flag to a bull". We hope you can always" take the bull by the horns (不畏艰险) when you have to deal with a difficult situation.
