Have you ever wished that you could brush your teeth while you’re moving? It turns out that scientists have the answer. There’s a special kind of edible toothpaste(牙膏)you can actually eat. You can use it to brush your teeth and eat it afterward. Without the need to spit(吐出), edible toothpaste is really convenient.
NASA invented edible toothpaste in the 1960s. They made it for astronauts in space and people called it “the astronaut toothpaste”. This is because spitting out toothpaste in space can be dangerous. Without gravity(重力)it can go everywhere and can damage spacecraft computers if it gets inside them. Edible toothpaste doesn’t foam(起泡沫)either so there is no mess.
If you don’t like the sound of edible toothpaste, there’s also a special toothbrush you can buy. When people travel to a place without water, they often use it. You just need to chew and it cleans your teeth just like you are using a normal brush. After you finish brushing your teeth, you spit it out and get rid of it. No mess and no worries.

| BEIJING (AP)-The government is teaching the people "the right way to spit." A college teaches students the right way to sit. Two years before holding the Olympic Games, people across Beijing are on and all-out drive to mind their behavior. Visitors are often surprised to see people in China spit phlegm onto the ground. Changing all that before the 2008 Summer Games is "important in providing a cultural and historical legacy to the world for China," said Beijing city official Zhang Huiguang. "We will work with newspapers, radio stations, TV stations, the Internet and mobile telephones to teach people the right way to spit, said Zhang. Zhang said her office is organizing a "behavioral training" activity that teaches people to line up for buses and turning off mobile phones during meetings. But spitting is the most serious problem. "You have to spit into a piece of paper or a bag, and then put it into a dustbin," she explained. Zhang said her office has organized a small group of volunteers who are going to Beijing's streets to hand out small "spit bags". "Public spitters already face fines up to 50 yuan (about $ 7 Cdn)," Zhang said. Others are taking a softer way. Lu-chin was born near Beijing, married an American and spent 10 years in the U.S. She said her heart sank when she and her family returned to live in her homeland and she saw the spitting, littering and cutting in line. It caused her to start the Pride Institute, a private group that showing the great pleasure of being more polite. "I'm trying to wake up a sense of decency. I know it's there. I saw our beautiful scenery covered with plastic bags. Sometimes I think I'm the first one to see this and say, 'Why do you treat our country like a dustbin?' I'm just trying to wake them up and show them they can stop the bad behavior." Still others are trying to improve things in a far more traditional way. "All of China is looking forward to the Olympics," said Zhang Hui, head of training at the Beijing Courtesy College. "It's really important to improve courtesy before the Games", Zhang said. "Everyone knows how to walk, stand and sit," she said. "But we teach them how to do it in a good way." That means things like sitting, back straight, on the "front one-third" of a chair, she said, "Women sit with their knees and feet together. Men may sit with their feet slightly apart. If you cross your legs, you keep the toe of your lifted foot pointing downward." "Every day we teach the students about Confucius and Laozi. Every country has a basis for its culture." she said. "Confucius and Laozi are our country's basis."

If the eyes are the windows of the soul, then the body is the mirror of our feelings. If we are feeling great, we may give our body signals(信号). If we look at someone else’s body, we can often tell how thy are feeling by their body signals. So reading body language signals is a great tool in daily communication.
In case(假使) you don’t think that learning how to read and use body language is important, here are some numbers for you. 7% of the information we receive is from what people actually say, and 38% of the information we receive is from the tone(语气) and the speed of their voice; while 55% of the information we receive is from their body language.
These non-verbal(非语言的) signals will help you a lot, but you still need to focus on what people are saying. If you focus too much on their body language signals, you and the person may feel uncomfortable. It is useful to be able to read people’s body language, but it is useful to learn how to send the right signals and avoid the wrong signals too. Body language may be given several interpretations. Many signals have different meanings, depending on the person and the situation. Be sure of it when you are trying to read a body language signal.
Facial expression is one of the body languages. Facial expressions are one or more movements on a person’s face, such as frowning(皱眉),raising your eyebrows and rolling(旋转) your eyes. Scientists say that humans have 80 muscles(肌肉) on their faces. These muscles can make 7.000 different facial expressions. These expressions can be put into six classes. They are happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, fear and disgust(厌恶)。
For example, when people think a certain food tastes disgusting, they usually make a funny face. When people are surprised, they often raise their eyebrows and open their eyes wide.
If people can read facial expressions correctly, they may be better at knowing other people’s feelings. That can help people make more friends. However, sometimes people have to be careful when reading others’ faces. It’s rude to stare at others for a long time.
