3 . Did you see a dentist before? Have you suffered (遭受) the toothache late in the night? Taking care of your teeth is necessary. And it’s important to have healthy teeth. They can help you speak clearly. Do you want to have healthy teeth? Follow my suggestions.

It’s not enough to brush your teeth only once a day. Brush your teeth at once after each meal. Food debris (残渣) can make your teeth ill slowly. And you should brush all of your teeth not just the front ones. Spend some time on the teeth along the sides. Take your time while you are brushing.

Spend at least three minutes each time when you brush.

Eat fewer candies or other sweet food. Lots of fruit and vegetables can make your teeth strong. Drink more water instead of drinks such as coffee and Coke.

Go to see a dentist and ask him to check your teeth once a year. He can find out your problem before it becomes too serious.

If you follow these suggestions, you’ll have white and healthy teeth.

6 . We all know that some pollution problems are still serious in the world. Everybody is worried about the change of the climate. But few of us realize that noise pollution is doing harm to our health seriously now. Noise has a direct effect on us, but we seldom notice its harm. More and more students enjoy listening to music with an earphone on their ears. When they listen to the music, they like to turn up the volume(音量), while watching TV, they often turn up the sound of the TV to the top. They haven’t realized that the noise is weakening their hearing.

Noise pollution is a source of increasing sadness to people in our society. Noise can be said as a kind of unwanted sound. If people are often disturbed by it, they may feel uneasy or annoyed. What’s worse, the noise can make some people mad. If a worker works in a printing factory for long, his hearing loss is much faster than a common person working in a quiet environment. So everybody must pay more attention to the noise pollution. Generally speaking, the following four types of noise should be watched out for:

●Noise in the Street

●Construction Site Noise

●Noise at Work

●Transport Noise

I think the local environmental protecting department(部门) should answer for controlling the noise levels. But it’s everybody’s duty to keep a quiet environment.
