Hi, everybody. My name is Alice. I have worked as an airhostess(空 姐) for China Eastern Airlines for five years. I have some useful tips for you on taking flights.

    All passengers must arrive at the airport two hours before the departure time. You have much time to check everything. If you have never been to another country, don't forget to take your passports, air tickets and your suitcases with you.

    Have you got your boarding card(登机牌) yet? You must get it as soon as you arrive at the airport. Have you checked your suitcases and put name tags on them?

    If the suitcases are too heavy, you can find a trolley(推车). Have you exchanged(兑换) some US dollars? If not, there are a few banks at the airport.

    You can also have a meal at a restaurant before boarding. When you want to go upstairs, you can take the escalator.

    If you have any questions, you can come and ask me. We hope you will have a pleasant flight!

For a long time we have learned about the 3Rs, but now there are two more in the mix.5Rs are Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, Recycle, in that order. The order of the Rs is also important. The closer to the start of the list, the more important it is. Let's start from our lifestyles! 

Refuse

Our lives are full of things we don't need, and each of them has an environmental cost. Think it over when buying. Just deciding not to spend $100 on things our family doesn't want can save 100kg greenhouse gas pollution! 

Reduce

To reduce is to use fewer resources. Before buying for children, give yourself at least a day or two to cool off. Only buy what is necessary to children. Always ask your children to turn off the lights or computers when they are not using them. 

Reuse

Almost everything we throw away in our daily lives will become litter and harm the planet in other ways. We can save resources by reusing. Reuse means using again. Have you given away your children's clothes that they can't wear to others? Or, we can use the cloth napkins and empty cans once again or more. 

Repurpose

Simply take something you are no longer using and change it for another more practical use. Think, help your children use old newspapers for art projects. 

Recycle

To recycle is to make new things from old things. In our home, anything made from metal, wood, paper and most plastics is possible to be recycled. 

People are always trying to live a healthy life. You might have read so much on this topic. The following ideas may sound strange but they can really help you. 

Exercise when you are tired. After a long and tiring day of study, exercising might not sound like a good idea, but it should. In fact, physical activities can provide you with the missing energy. Research shows that exercising for just 30 minutes can make you feel good! 

Write by hand to help the brain be active. Although writing something using a computer is faster, it is much better to remember the whole thing by writing it down by hand. When you read a handwritten text naturally, it's easier for your brains to remember the information. 

Spare more time for yourself. By sparing the time for yourself and just being alone for a while, you can have a chance to think and get to know yourself better. And you won't behave impulsively (冲动地) . 

Drink hot drinks on a hot day. What cools more on a hot summer morning, cold water or hot water? The study shows that the hot water does make people feel cooler. When you are drinking something hot, the body will feel the change in temperature and increase the perspiration (流汗) , which helps you cooldown! 

Western people celebrate Halloween on 31" October. Here are some things about it.

Pumpkin(南瓜) lanterns

These are pumpkins with a nose, two eyes and a mouth. There is a candle in the empty pumpkin and the light creates a scary face. They are easier to cut and you can buy them in supermarkets. People use pumpkin lanterns to decorate their houses on Halloween.

Dressing up

People of all ages dress up on Halloween. They wear scary clothes. You can buy the clothes from a shop or you can make your own clothes at home. It's easy to make ghost clothes from an old white shirt or wear black clothes to look like a witch(女巫).

Trick or treat

Children dress up and visit the houses in their neighbourhood to play" trick or treat". The neighbour gives them sweets as a" treat". If there is no treat, the children play a trick. Some people think that playing tricks is unkind but luckily there is nearly always a treat!

Doing "Clean" Exercise

When you go for a run outside, chances are that you'll find rubbish all around you. Do you just go past it, or do you stop to pick it up? If you choose the second, you are part of the latest popular sport in the West: plogging. 

The word"plogging" comes from the Swedish phrase"plocka upp (pick up)" and the English word"jogging (running slowly)". What a plogger needs is a rubbish bag and a pair of gloves to protect his or her hands. While collecting rubbish, ploggers learn to classify (分类) and deal with it correctly too. 

Plogging seems simple but it does a lot of good to both the environment and your health. It can not only make the world greener, but also get you full body exercise. For example, a30- minute plogging burns around 288 calories(卡路里), compared to 235 calories burnt from just jogging. 

So next time you go out jogging, why not carry a rubbish bag and collect some rubbish along the way? Your body and the environment will thank you.
