When you cough or sneeze, please turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. And then, you should say, “Excuse me.” This is a rule I set for my students
It is so simple, but many kinds have never been told to do this. In fact, I notice adults cough and sneeze in public without putting a hand over the mouth. I hate traveling by subway in New York during cold and flu season, because it is certain that someone is going to stand right behind me and cough or sneeze on my neck.
One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hand, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. Or they will be passing those germs (病菌) along to everything and everyone they touch.
In order to help the kids remember this rule, I tell them about an old story. It says that when you sneeze, evil spirits (幽灵) jump into your body. If you don’t cover your mouth, the spirits will enter, but if you cover your mouth, you will keep them out, We say “God bless you” (上帝保佑你) when someone sneezes, and in Germany you should say “Gesundheit” (祝你健康). That means “Good health to you.” Both expressions are said just in case you didn’t cover your mouth in time and the spirits were able to enter your body. The kids love finding out the origins (起源) of these expressions and it encourages them to put the advice to use more often.

Now cities are full of cars. Some families even have two or more cars. Parking is a great problem, and so is the traffic in around the cities. Something will have to be done to change it. What will the cars of tomorrow be like?
Little cars may some day take the place of today's big cars. If everyone drives little cars in the future there will be less pollution in the air. There will also be more space for parking cars in cities, and the streets will be less crowded. Three little cars can fit in the space now needed for one car of the usual size.

Little cars of the future will be fine for getting around a city, but they will not be useful for long trips.
