The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we've never been before. But just as in face to face communication, there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line.

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes. For anything you're about to send，ask yourself, ＂Would I say this to the person's face?＂ If the answer is no, rewrite and reread.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

     If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a mistake, whether it's a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it's a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good manners yourself doesn't give you license to correct everyone else. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended. It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information, don't ask such questions.

How To Study English In China

    English is obviously not the native language in China. Although many Chinese want to improve their English level to the amount needed in daily work, it's very hard when only a few people speak English around them. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Here are a few tips that might help.

Join a school with native teachers to guide you.

    {#blank#}2{#/blank#} The more exposure you can get to these foreign teachers, the faster and better you're going to learn English. If a school doesn't give students maximum exposure to native English speakers' classes, find one that does.

Read English daily.

    This means using websites that are permitted in China, accessing English texts, newspapers and books. Read short stories in English. When you come across words you don't know write them down immediately. {#blank#}3{#/blank#}

Find some English speakers.

    Spend time with them and share conversations. There is nothing better for learning any language than finding native speakers of the language to practice with. When you speak, you are practicing every aspect of the language(except writing) in the most efficient way possible.

Memorize vocabulary.

    Write new words in a notebook every week, with English definitions and a sample sentence, not a Chinese translation. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Carry it with you everywhere you go. Even if you have a question about something that you see and you don't know the English word, write it down in your own language with the plan to look it up later and learn that word in English.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} English is not well controlled by grammar rules. For every rule, there is an exception to that rule. Your time will be better spent in watching movies and learning from them than studying grammar for long hours. Find someone to write emails in English to or write a dairy every day.

    There are many other ways to improve your English. Come on!

A. Learn to write.

B. Watch an English film once a month.

C. What can you do to study more English?

D. There are many English speakers in China.

E. You can do this by writing in your notebook.

F. Follow a soap opera, comedy or radio program or TV drama.

G. You should be carrying a notebook with you everywhere you go just to write down something important.

Best Way to Lose Weight – Dieting Tips

    How do you eat right to lose weight fast? You'll discover there are a great number of weight loss diets which promise to help you drop the pounds fast.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    Many weight loss diets are aimed at losing weight fast, but aren't necessarily healthy and won't create a long-term change for the better. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} That means you'll choose a diet which doesn't cut out any necessary nutrients(营养物). Most diets suggest that you stop eating fat or carbs(含碳水化合物的食物).{#blank#}3{#/blank#} You'll need to make clear of your own body type before making a diet plan. You might also need to try different ways before finding the best way.

    If you just need to shake a few pounds off, your plan won't be the same as one to lose weight in the long term. The best short-term weight loss plan will be stronger than the best long-term weight loss plan, but it shouldn't get rid of necessary nutrition. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Your body will go into "starvation mode" and your metabolism(新陈代谢) will slow down. As a result your body will keep more weight.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Spread out your meals evenly throughout the day. Any larger meals should be eaten earlier in the day. That gives your body more time and opportunity to burn calories. If you eat a lot before bed, those calories won't burn but become fat.

A. In fact many people feel it hard to lose weight.

B. Once you start your plan, you shouldn't stop.

C. But do they really work?

D. If you try to make yourself feel hungry, you won't achieve long-term results.

E. The best way to lose weight should be useful in the long term.

F. While this may help some people, there is no plan that is perfect for all.

G. Besides improving your metabolism, you also should pay attention to when you eat.

The outbreak has forced people to work from home and given many couples the chance to see each other at work. But, after all, living together and working together are not the same. {#blank#}1{#/blank#}

⒈ Put the problem on the table

Knowing what your partner does is one thing but seeing them in action is another. "We are forced into the intimacy (亲密), not just with spouses (配偶), but also with kids or whoever else is in the home," said Karen Bridbord, a psychologist in New York City.{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Talk about any insecurities you may have whether it's participating in a video meeting or being eavesdropped on and what you need in terms of a work environment. Then create a schedule and set boundaries when it comes to separating work life and personal life.

⒉{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

You might be learning that your spouse is fan of all the office cliches or holds too many meetings—but it's best to keep that to yourself. Even if you think your intentions are good, don't offer any unsolicited（主动提供的）feedback when it comes to your partner's' work style. And don't mistake complaining as an opportunity to criticize. "Even if a partner is complaining about work, you shouldn't see that as an invitation or opportunity to provide critical feedback," said Anthony Chambers, a chief academic officer. "{#blank#}4{#/blank#}"

⒊ Don't complain a lot

These working conditions aren't ideal for many people right now—especially if you are juggling kids and other care giving responsibilities {#blank#}5{#/blank#}. However, try not to keep score of who is doing what around the house, or whose work is more pressing.

A. Provide an inside look.

B. Allow them to complain and you just listen.

C. Avoid treating each other like colleagues.

D. This can leave you feeling overburdened and exhausted.

E. The first step in making this situation work is to talk about it.

F. How to do with this "new colleague" to maintain a harmonious relationship?

G. In this way, you're more likely to arouse sympathy from the partner which will help negotiate boundaries.
