Do you feel lonely when your best friend isn’t around? Here’s our advice to you ---and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes. 

It’s hard when a best friend isn’t around --- maybe because he or she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel left out at break or lunchtime. You want to have new friends, but how do you make them? Maybe it seems everybody else already has his or her friends. But remember, there’s always room for more friends.

Start by looking around your classroom --- think about which kids you’d like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation (欣赏) to them. Invite someone to play with you or say, “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When you’re at break, walk over to kids you want to play with, act friendly, and say “Hi, can I play, too?” or just join in. 

If you have trouble doing this or if you’re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to help ---and pretty soon, you’ll have one, or two, or even more new friends.

You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other, you can share something you didn’t have before he or she left. You can introduce him or her to your new friends!

Do you want to keep your brain active and your memory strong? Here are some useful ways:

Choose the Brain Food

A proper diet will help keep your mind running strong all day long. Make sure to include plenty of fruits and green vegetables. Some of the best foods include: blueberries, blackberries, fish and fish oil, eggs, strawberries and so on.

Exercise

Get your body moving and your memory will soon follow. Exercise improves the heart’s blood flow. This, in turn, helps the brain function better and stay sharper.

Pick up a Book

The key to keeping your memory quick is to continue to challenge it. Try to always have a book in hand. After you’ve done reading a section or two, question and review the material you’ve read. Try to imagine what you’re reading. Discuss what you’ve read, and talk about it with friends or join a book club.

Develop Interest

We remember new things because we enjoy them. Find ways to make a boring subject fun by connecting it to something you already know. You can use your imagination and create a fun story behind a subject to help make it easier to remember.

Repeat after Me

When learning new information, the more you repeat it, the more likely you will be able to remember that information. Practice is the key to lasting memory.

Share with Others

Don’t keep your knowledge stored up. Teaching others is another great way to improve memory skills. Don’t be afraid of taking on new challenges. After learning something, it’s necessary to put the new information to use.

 Do you want to know more cultures about other countries? Here are some messages you may be interested in.

Taking off your shoes or not

It’s bad manners to take off your shoes at the door of a London dinner party. But in Asia if you don’t take off your shoes before entering a home, you are not polite enough.

What you should do instead: If you see a row of shoes at the door, take off your shoes. If not, keep the shoes on.

Talking over dinner

In some countries, like Japan, don’t start talking while everyone else is having dinner. You’ll meet with silence – not because your group is unfriendly, but because mealtime is for eating, not talking. Also don’t talk in places like churches in Europe.

What you should do instead: Keep quiet!

Knowing your right from your left

Some cultures in Africa and the Middle East still like to eat in traditional ways – using their hands. When people eat in this way, food is often offered for several people to share at the same time. That is why it’s important to wash your hands before eating. While eating, you have to follow the rule: Eat using your right hand, and use your left hand to do other things. Another thing to remember: Eat the food that’s closest to you. Don’t put your hand into the center of the table.

What You Should Do Instead: Follow the others and use your right hand. Even children who are left-handed in this culture are taught to eat with their right hands. If you really can’t, explain yourself to others before you eat.

1 Is it good manners to take off your shoes at the door of a London dinner party?

2 Why do Japanese people keep silent while eating?

3What is important in Africa and the Middle East before eating?

4 How many rules should you remember while eating in Africa?
