Ordering food online
Nowadays, many people prefer ordering food online. Some people think it’s good to order food online. It is more convenient and faster than we cook at home, so we can save much time to do other things. Besides, there are many kinds of take-away food and most of them are delicious. What’s more, ordering food online can reduce going out and avoid risks.
However other people hold a different opinion. They say some restaurants may have food safety problems and plastic packages are bad for our environment and health. In addition, this kind of eating habit is unhealthy.
In my opinion, we can order food online sometimes, but for the sake of our health, we’d better cook it by ourselves.阿克苏市实验中学2023-2024学年高二上学期期末考试

Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys
The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences. To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring; while for Muslims it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils (灾祸).
People’s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies’ reactions toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.
Red can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise and increase people’s appetites. Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that easily catches a person’s eye.
Blue is another calming color. Unlike red blue can cause people to lose appetite. So if you want to eat less, some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.
