Food safety is a problem in all places around the world and people in different areas of the world prepare foods in different ways. The WHO released (发布) five simple rules for preparing food in a safe way. They call these rules the “Five Keys to Safer Food”.

Key 1: Keep clean

    {#blank#}1{#/blank#}People should wash their hands often — before touching food and while they are preparing food. People should wash all surfaces and equipment used for preparing food.

Key 2: Separate raw (生的) and cooked

    Raw foods should not touch prepared foods.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}.

Key 3:{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    People should cook eggs and meat especially carefully. These foods may carry more micro-organisms (微生物) than other foods. Food like soup must be boiled for at least a minute to make it be cooked completely. It is also important that people re-heat cooked food completely.

Key 4: Keep food at safe temperatures

    When people finish eating, they should keep the left food in a refrigerator below 5℃and shouldn't store it for too long. At room temperature, about 20℃, the amount of micro-organisms can increase very quickly. But temperatures above 60℃ or below 5℃ control the growth of micro-organisms.{#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

    Write everything down and do not rely on your memory.{#blank#}1{#/blank#} If you want to remember things, put them in writing, or in a digital notebook.

    Recycle and donate. Is your closet full of unopened bags and clothes that still have their tags(标签) on? Is your bookshelf full of unread books? Chances are that if you have not read, worn, or used whatever they are, they you are probably not going to use them at all.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Nowadays more and more Chinese parents invest large sums of money to send their children to study abroad. With countless difficulties to face and solve while studying abroad, overseas students should pay attention to the following things.

    Adjust mental attitudes. Experts consider psychological preparation as the most important thing for students studying abroad to consider.{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    Adapt to new learning methods. Chinese students have got accustomed to the domestic exam-oriented education style. They will face changes in the educational system while studying abroad.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Be willing to communicate. With no relatives or friends by their sides, the first feeling of Chinese students is loneliness, which makes it especially important to learn to develop relationships with people around them.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}Foreigners really like children of this kind and are willing to help them.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Students should ask related teachers to help make plans consistent with their practical condition. Learning plans require students to hold on to the primary direction of their overseas studies and arrange learning content for each course and semester. After the plan is made, they should strictly keep to it.

    Develop self-motivation for learning. Foreign children are used to learning by themselves in or after class.{#blank#}5{#/blank#}So studying abroad requires that they should adapt to overseas studies as soon as possible and try their best to learn actively and independently.

A. Students must know they are going abroad to study and not for leisure.

B. Try to find more solutions to adjusting to the open education.

    Homework is a major part of going to school: It's your teachers' way of evaluating(评价) how much you understand of what's going on in class.{#blank#}1{#/blank#} Luckily, you can do a few things to make homework less work.

    Be sure you understand the homework.

    Write your homework down in your notebook or day planner if you need to.{#blank#}2{#/blank#}It's much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night!

    Use any extra time in school.

    Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study. It's tempting(诱惑) to hang out with friends during study periods or unstructured(松散的) time.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}

    Take a break.

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#} So take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without stretching or relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often. Taking a 15 minute break every hour is a good idea for most people.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    If you don't finish your homework during school, think about how much you have left and what else is going on that day, and then budget your time. Most high school students have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it's a heavy homework day and you've got an assignment in every subject, you'll need to devote more time to homework. It's a good idea to come up with some kind of homework schedule, especially if you are involved in sports or activities or have an after school job.

B. Settle down to do homework.

C. And it helps digest important concepts.

D. Most people's attention spans (跨度) aren't very long.

    We usually don't mind when people call us by positive nicknames. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} But when people call us by cruel nicknames, it can be difficult to get them to stop. So what should you do?

    Ask your friends to stop. Maybe you tripped (绊倒) over your feet a few times, and your friends started calling you klutz, thinking that you don't really mind. {#blank#}2{#/blank#}

    Leave a nicknames behind. Sometimes, life gives us a chance to start fresh. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} If you're moving from elementary school to middle school, let your friends know that: A new year has begun and you don't want to go by your old nickname.

    I ignore those who call you by a nickname. If the kids calling you by a bad nickname aren't your friends, you should do your best to ignore them. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} It may be hard to pretend that it doesn't hurt, but if you get angry or obviously upset, it will just encourage them to use the nickname all the time.

    {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Remember that if you have a bad nickname now  you probably won't be stuck with it. Just look at Elvis Presley! When he first started singing on stage, he wiggled (摆动) his hips so much that cruel critics and the audience nicknamed him Elvis The Pelvis. He never stopped wiggling. People soon found it impossible to ignore his talent and began to call him The King of Rock & Roll.

A. If it does bother you, tell them.

B. Believe that things will change.

C. If the kids refuse to stop, talk to your teacher.

D. It feels good when these nicknames are repeated.

E. Although words can be hurtful, they can't change who you really are.

F. The chance can be a good time to get rid of a nickname that you don't like.

G. If you act like they aren't hurting you, they'll eventually get bored and stop.
