Personal information leakage(泄漏) has been common in China in recent years, and many people think it extremely annoying.
According to a recent online survey of nearly 2,000 Chinese, nearly 87 % of interviewees said that their personal information had been leaked, and nearly 50 % complained that information leakage has seriously affected their lives. The survey found that "phone number" "name, age and other personal information", and "family address" are the three main types of information leaked. They are followed by "job and company name" ,"ID card number", and "educational background". The leakage of information can be a lot of trouble. We may get lots of junk messages which are not welcomed. What’s worse, we may lose our money or get into lots of trouble because of this. In a word, our life can be affected.
So keeping our personal information safe is important. Be careful not to take part in social surveys easily that ask for our personal information.

Singles Day (光棍节)falls on every November 11th, and as the name suggests, this holiday is one specially for people who are still living the single life. It’s surprising that China is the only country in the world that has set up a special day for singles to celebrate(庆祝) their lives. To find out more about this celebration, read on.
An old story goes that once there were four single men, leading very boring lives. None of them were married(结婚), or had lovers, or did anything exciting. They just sat around all day and played Mahjong(麻将).
One day they played Mahjong from 11am until 11 pm. During the game, no matter who won, the winning card was always the 'Sitiao' card. And that day happened to be November 11th. In order to remember the day, they called it Singles Day.
For breakfast on Singles Day, singles often eat four youtiao, which means the four "ones" in "11.11". Many singles also choose to say goodbye to their single lives on this day. So they take part in 'blind date' parties , trying to find someone they love and many people choose to marry on this day. Besides the meaning of 'single', the four 'ones' of the date can also mean the 'only one' in one’s heart.

Food wasting is often seen in China. It’s reported that food waste has produced 70% of the country’s increasing rubbish. Especially in restaurants, plenty of food is wasted every day. Huge food waste is usually seen in wedding banquets(婚宴) , birthday banquets and business meals. However, when many people waste food, there is still a large number of people who do not have enough food to eat.
Luckily, when dining out is part of everyday life, more and more people have realized packing up the leftovers(剩菜) when dinning might be the right thing to do.
Now here is some advice about how.
When packing leftovers, take staple foods(主食) such as steamed bread. However, leftovers of cold dishes should not be packed up, because the cold dishes can not be heated after being brought home and may go bad and cause illness. Also, leftovers should be kept in the right way after being brought home. Food should be kept at temperatures below 10 ℃ or higher than 70 ℃.But if the packed food is put under room temperatures, they should be eaten within four hours.
Packing leftovers in the right way is important, but it’s more important to know how to order the right number of dishes. Don’t be afraid of losing face by ordering less. After all, food doesn’t come easily.
