Mary is having a birthday party. There will be a cake with candles. Some people will bring birthday presents. Let's look at birthdays in some different countries around the world.

Denmark(丹麦): Flag(旗). If it is your birthday in Denmark, a flag will fly outside a window of your home.
Philippines(菲律宾): Coloured lights. Some people put coloured lights outside their home if someone is having a birthday party.
Russia: Birthday pies. Many Russian children get a birthday pie, not a birthday cake.

How to Ride a Bicycle in Traffic
Cycling in traffic is something that seems dangerous but can be quite safe as long as you follow the rules of the road, exercise alertness(机敏) and common sense. Here are some tips for you.
{#blank#}1{#/blank#} A helmet (头盔) won't prevent accidents. But it can protect your head from serious hurt if you are in an accident. That's why it's always safer to wear it when cycling.
{#blank#}2{#/blank#} So always have lights if it is not very bright out, and if you cycle in the evening, reflective(反光的) clothing is a great idea. The easier you are to be seen, the less possible you are to be hit.
If you're an inexperienced cyclist, it isn't a good idea to throw yourself in the heavy traffic. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Pick some quiet back streets and get used to being around cars and other road traffic. Gradually build up your stamina (耐 力) on larger roads by practising on them on quiet days.
You should always pay attention to the rules of the road. Always ride with the traffic. Stay off sidewalks, stop for red lights, stop at stop signs, and follow all other traffic signs.{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Your good habits can help improve others' safety awareness.
Avoid doing things that will affect your ability to hear cars coming up behind you. If you need to talk on your mobile phone, stop and pull over. Don't listen to music or radio. Some cars are very difficult to hear, so you need to pay careful attention to not being run over by them.
A. The wearing of helmets is a requirement in many countries. B. Don't jump the lights no matter how many other cyclists do it. C. Start from the easy streets. D. Most accidents happen when drivers haven't noticed a cyclist. |
What do you think of these tips? {#blank#}5{#/blank#}
A. Set up an emotional tool kit for next time. B. Anything helps, even if it is taking a walk. C. Ask friends for advice on emotional control. D. Luckily, you are often able to turn things around. E. Sometimes it is better to respond rather than react(反应). F. They can bring you little bits of joy during an awful day. |
There are some days that start off badly, which can be a rush morning, a stranger being rude, or some bad news. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Here are a few tips that may help.
Switch things up
A quick way to rescue your day is to try a"sensory (感官的) change. " Take a hot shower, buy some flowers, or get up and move. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} When you are stuck in your emotions, a little activity and a change of location can help unlock them.
See it from a different point of view
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} Ask yourself: Is this really about me, or is it about them? What is the story I created based on the thing that happened? Looking at the matter in a different way can help calm down your feelings.
Give yourself little rewards(奖励)
If you are really having a bad day, little rewards like some ice cream or taking a short break can make it less stressful than a large reward later would. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}
{#blank#}5{#/blank#}
I was once advised by a friend of mine that I should make an"album for happiness" to improve a bad mood on a certain day. Another friend also recommended me to collect positive messages and emails and pull them out when I feel low. Remember to get prepared.
