When you’re new to a school or campus, your smartphone will be your new beat friend. Here are four kinds of apps to help you get started in the US.
1. Social media: 1. You can use Facebook to communicate with various groups or people that share a common interest. Apps like Snapchat are more for close friends. Instagram focuses on photos you share. Twitter limits you to 280 character per “tweet,” or post. 2.
2. Ride-sharing: Need a ride? 3. Then you will find out how far the nearest ride is to your location and how much it will cost to get where you want to go. The app is linked to your bank account, so you don’t have to worry about carrying cash.
3. Eating: Don’t want to get off the couch（沙发）or move away from your desk? Order from almost any nearby restaurant, pay online, and wait for a delivery driver to bring it to your front door through Grubhub, UberEats or DoorDash. 4.
4. Texting/Phoning Home: College students like to communicate in groups, which makes messaging apps common on campus smartphones. 5. But using apps like WhatsApp, GroupMe or Slack for calls or texts makes it cost-effective on a student’s tight budget.

You can tell a lot about a country from its passport. Color is the first give-away. Nations tend to pick colors that reflect their national character. New Zealand decorates its famous rugby team, its airline and its passports in the nation’s favorite color—black. Many Islamic countries have green passports because of the importance of the color in the Muslim faith.
But as well as a statement of national identity, color can show international cooperation. The British passport was originally a navy blue. But after Britain joined the European Union in 1973, it switched to burgundy red（酒红色）like other EU countries. The common color was supposed to make European passports instantly recognizable.
But since colors can’t be patented（专利）, nothing stops others with the same idea. A number of countries that long to join the EU have changed their passports to burgundy too. Meanwhile Britain has decided to leave the club. Its government has announced that the UK passports will return to navy blue after Breit（脱欧）.
If you have a passport from Singapore or South Korea, you are in possession of one of the most powe3rful travel documents on earth. Passport power is measured by the number of countries the holder can access visa-free. Currently sharing first place in the power rankings, Singaporean and South Korean passports provide visa-free access to 162 countries each. British passport holders share fourth place in the power ranking with six other nations, each accessing 159 countries visa-free. Americans ranked fifth with access to 158. Somalia, Syria, Pakistan and Iraq are among the world’s least powerful passports. Afghanistan is the lowest ranking of all, with visa0free access to just 26 countries.
Having to get a visa is not a piece if cake. First there is the never-ending form. Then there are lengthy appointments and expensive fees. Some visas also require travelers to pre-booked flights to prove that they intend to return home.
But there are unexpected advantages to some of the world’s weaker passports. Middle-ranking Namibia is one of just a handful of countries, whose citizens can enter Angola visa-free. India is one of only three countries, whose citizens have visa-free access to Bhutan.
A low-ranking passport limits your choices, but not your sense of adventure.

When the sun sets in Hong Kong, the city skyline comes alive. Billboard（广告牌）lights flash, and light up the crowded streets. The colorful lights from the tall buildings are one of the city’s main attractions.
“Oh, my god. The lights are so amazing. We love it. It’s so nice.” said one visitor.
But this appreciation is not shared by everyone in Hong Kong. Lat year then government reported a record number of complaints. The curtains may be drawn. But residents argue the bright light outside is hard to escape. “We receive some complaints about the light pollution. They find it very hard to sleep or they have disturbance from the light outside.”
Scientists at the University of Hong Kong spent 18 months studying levels of light pollution and collecting more than 5 million measurements. They found Hong Kong one of the world’s worst “victims”. The lights pollution condition in Hong Kong was extremely severe. Particular in cities, the night sky brightness, as well as the lights, is a few hundred times over the level of that of a night sky without light pollution. In cities such as Seoul, London, Shanghai and Paris, billboard lighting is under control. And there are punishments for people who go against the law.
But in Hong Kong, there are no laws. A volunteer regulation called Charter of External Light（户外灯光约章）encourages visitors to switch off between 11 p.m. and 7 p.m. The critics say it’s not enough to make a difference. The government says 4800 businessmen have signed up to the Charter so far. And it’s satisfied that it’s working.
But not everyone is convinced and some residents are taking upon themselves to act. Zoe Chow led a campaign to have a commercial building switch off their midnight. She won but she believes the lights will eventually turn back on. “I know that the building has signed the Charter of External Light. But it is voluntary, not mandatory（强制的）.
