16、We just cannot leave our mobiles for only a meal.Does that sound familiar to you? Do you do that often? If not, how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you?A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not so good. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food le

17、ss pleasant. To test this, some researchers did a test. Some people were required to take photos before they could enjoy food. The result of the test showed that the number of photos they took was in inverse proportional to (成反比) how they felt about the food. So, why not stop taking photos and just

18、enjoy the food in front of you?In addition, there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the Internet, one will not be able to control himself and check his mobile many times. “Does everyone accept my photos? I hope a lot of people lik

19、e them!” It seems like your mobile secretly calls your name all the time, even when you are with real people.So, next time you go out to have dinner with your family or friends, how about not taking photos of food?

31、y have to be spread out throughout the year. Even when US workers are on vacation. they are often expected to be in communication with their bosses by email and mobile phone.

32、ompanies discourage it.Other countries, especially countries in Europe, have much more vacation time. In Germany many people have six weeks of paid vacation.

Not caring about the money, parents often se

55、nd their children to the best schools or even abroad to England, the United States and Australia. They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet, or other classes which will give them a head in life. The Chinese believe that

56、the more expensive an education is, the better it is. So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter.

57、ery cheap.Parents can see that their children are very skilled in some areas while poor in others.
