Want to travel easily? Here are some tips that help you reduce the size of your luggage.

    Roll clothes instead of folding them. Many people try to fold their clothes into their little suitcase.{#blank#}1{#/blank#} It actually makes far more sense to roll your clothes rather than fold them. Starting from the bottom, roll up your clothes into very tightly packed cylinders (圆柱体) which you can stack (堆叠) on top of each other.

    Use vacuum bags (真空袋), when possible.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Buy some vacuum bags and seal all of your clothes up tightly. Having all of your luggage vacuum sealed will reduce the size of your items greatly. That will allow you to take more of what's needed.

    Always take travel bottles. Even though you are allowed to take full sized bottles in your suitcase, to make sure that you are under the weight allowance, it's recommended that you still stick to travel-sized bottles.{#blank#}3{#/blank#} Besides, it will also prevent you from wasting any product. If you do run out of anything while you are on holiday, you can always buy more.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} If you do need to take a coat, you can wear it on the journey so you don't have to pack it in your suitcase. Another method you can use is wearing multiple layers (多层衣服) on the journey although this isn't always the most comfortable.

    Research the weather in advance. A great way to prevent packing clothes that you won't end up wearing is to research what the weather is going to be like where and when you go on holiday.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} You can know how hot it's likely going to be, as well as how much rain on average the destination receives each month.

    It's natural to great friends with a smile and a wave.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages? Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body?

    Scientists have recently tackled these questions. They found that when a person is looking at your face, she might not believe what she sees of your body language doesn't match the feeling that your face shows.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Previously, they had found that the tone of a person's voice can be more important than the words that are spoken. For example, most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice, “I'm so excited.”

    When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language, most scientists suspected that the face was more important. To test if this was true, psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated faces and isolated bodies(with faces blurred out )that showed anger or fear{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips. A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square, as if ready to defend.

    These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people. Even when people pay attention to the face, body language subtly influences which emotion they read.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}And if you want to be understood, it helps to avoid sending mixed messages.

A. Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists.

B. So, your body language plays a major role in telling people how you feel.

C. Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people.

D. An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle, as if ready to fight.

E. Body language can sometimes be misunderstood in different culture backgrounds.

F. When you do this, your face and body work together to show your friends that you're happy to see them.

G. They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies
