17、chool with him on the back,”Jonathan said. “We had a lot of fun being outdoors. Wed stop to give our dog treats and generally enjoyed it.”As Simon got bigger, though, it wasnt practical for him to ride on his fathers back, but it also didnt make sense to ride together-both because of safety concerns

18、 and because there was no place to put away Simons bike. So, most of the time they drove the 1.5 miles to school.But in 2019, when Simon was going into third grade, the 8-year-old came up with a newway to help the planet: running the 1. 5 miles to P S. 81. And Jonathan promised his son hed join him

24、kly. He turned this new material into dishcloths which have been available in Europe ever since, and now they are gaining ground in Canada.I love microfiber cleaning cloths, but stopped buying them when I started cutting down on plastic and things containing chemicals. I had heard that Swedish dishc

25、loths would replace traditional towels, but didnt see how they could be much better than my regular cotton dish towels.

The ones I got are made of biodegradable plant-based fiber and cotton. After innocent spills and wiping up water,

27、I just wash them out in the sink and squeeze them well, then let them dry on the dish rack(架子). For more intensive washing, they can go into the washing machine or dishwasher! They are much less likely to give shelter to bacteria compared to traditional dishcloths because of their unique composition

28、.I have been using them for about a month, and am curious to see how long the pack will last, but so far they have been satisfactory.

32、a psychologist Elizabeth Dunn and her colleague Gillian M. Sandstrom did a test. They asked participants to enter Starbucks and buy a drink-half would get in and get out,and half would start a conversation with the cashier. “We found that people who were randomly assigned to turn this economic deal

33、into a quick social interaction left Starbucks in a happier mood,”Dunn says. “And they even felt a greater sense of belonging in their community.”Social anxiety, however, could be preventing these types of interactions with strangers, says Nicholas Epley, a University of Chicago behavioral scientist

34、. One day, during a daily train ride, he noticed something strange. People-social creatures -were basically ignoring one another. Why, he wondered, if connecting with others makes us happy,do we so often avoid it?Either being alone really is more enjoyable than talking to strangers,or we have mistak

35、en assumptions holding us back. His curiosity led to a series of experiments revealing that passengers interacting with others experienced a more pleasant ride.It is fear that the person sitting next to us wont enjoy talking to us that makes us keep to ourselves(不交际)，Epley found. But when we do talk

36、 to each other, those social interactions with strangers tend to be both less awkward and more enjoyable than most people predict. If you feel nervous to make small talk with a stranger, you might be relieved to hear that even something as simple as making eye contact increases peoples sense of incl

37、usion and belonging.The mood boost(提高)of talking to strangers may seem brief, but the research on well-being, Epley says, suggests that a happy life is made up of a high frequency of positive events, and even small positive experiences make a difference. “Happiness seems a little bit like a leaky ti

Short conversations with strangers could lift moods.B. The customers at Starbucks have a sense of belonging.C. The cashier has a good sk
