The latest fashion in kitchen is the food steamer． All the stores are selling them; everyone wants one． Steaming is one of the simplest and healthiest ways of cooking food．However, that cooking time is usually longer than with other methods． In case you’re thinking of buying a steamer, I've done a survey about the steamers available on the market to help you decide which will suit you best．
●Folding Steamer
The simplest and least expensive is the folding stainless-steel （不锈钢）version．
Advantages: This is a good, basic design which sits inside a variety of different shapes of pans with the water under it; a ring in the center allows for easy lifting and it's easy to clean．
Disadvantages: It only holds small dishes． Also, if you put too much water in the pan, it will boil up through the vegetables and they will be watery． If you put too little water in and let it get dry, you will burn the pan and get strange-smelling vegetables．
●Steaming Pan
This is a three-layered black Teflon-coated version with a lid and two double-handled steamers, which sits on the oven ring． The brand I bought is called Nutritious Living．
Advantages: This is an excellent steamer, lightweight, easy to clean, and of all the steamers I've tried, this cooks the fastest． Fish and chicken can be cooked on the bottom with rice or vegetables on the top． It's easier to store．
Disadvantages: Water can boil away until the pan is dry, but if you make sure you fill the pan up to the suggested level and do not overcook the food, this should not happen．You cannot see the food cooking from the top． It doesn't supply a dish for cooking rice．
For serious users of steamers, I recommend having one of each version． If you just want to try it, get the folding stainless-steel type．

The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet，chat and go where we’ve never been before．
But just as in face to face communication，there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when on line．1. Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoes．
For anything you’re about to send，ask yourself，“Would I say this to the person’s face？”If the answer is no，rewrite and reread．2. .
If someone in the chat room is rude to you，your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner．But try not to do so．3. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member，try to fix the situation by politely discussing it．Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room．
4. Offer advice when asked by newcomers，as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate．When someone makes a mistake，whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer，be kind about it．If it’s a small mistake，you may not need to say anything．Even if you feel strongly about it，think twice before saying anything．Having good manners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else．5. At the same time，if you find you are wrong，be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended．
It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as age，sex，and marital status．Unless you know the person very well，and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information，don’t ask such questions．
A．Everyone was new to the network once．
B．If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake，point it out politely．
C．It’s natural that there are some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online．
D．The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated．
E．You should either ignore the person，or use your chat software to block their messages．
F．When you send short messages to a person online，you must say something beautiful to hear．
G．Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable saying words to a person’s face．
