     “If we don’t often wash our hands, we can pick up viruses（病毒）form many places and make ourselves ill,” a man from CDC says. Doctors always say every time when you touch your eyes, nose or mouth, you may be ill. In fact, one of the common（平常的） ways of catching a cold is by rubbing（擦拭）their noses or their eyes when there are viruses on their hands. If you don’t often wash your hands, especially when you’re sick, you may spread the viruses to others. You should wash your hands in these situations:

1.  After using the washroom

2.  After rubbing your nose or coughing.

3.  Before eating or making food.

4.  After touching animals.

5.  After visiting a sick man.

6.  When your hands are dirty.

There’re right ways to wash your hands. Follow these things to keep your hands clean:

1.  Use warm water (not cold or hot).

2.  Wash for 15 seconds.

3.  Wash well under warm running water and dry them with a clean towel.

Bamboo is a giant grass that grows in warm places. It has many uses. Everything—from chairs and fishing rods to basket and paper can be made from it. And that’s not all. It can be eaten, too. People in China like bamboo shoots very much. They think the bamboo shoots are a delicious vegetable for parties and meals.

In many parts of Asia, bamboo shoots are a favorite food. The winter shoots are the best because they are soft, with a white and green color. Usually they are boiled in water with some salt. Spring shoots are darker and harder, so they take longer to cook. But they are cheaper than winter shoots.

Fresh bamboo shoots are seldom found outside bamboos’ hometown. But people in other places can buy bamboo shoots, too. These shoots are kept in bottles and cans. They need no cooking and are almost as good as fresh bamboo shoots.
