Personal information leakage（泄漏） has been common in China in recent years, and many people think it extremely annoying.
According to a recent online survey of nearly 2,000 Chinese, nearly 87 % of interviewees said that their personal information had been leaked, and nearly 50 % complained that information leakage has seriously affected their lives. The survey found that "phone number" "name, age and other personal information", and "family address" are the three main types of information leaked. They are followed by "job and company name" ,"ID card number", and "educational background". The leakage of information can be a lot of trouble. We may get lots of junk messages which are not welcomed. What’s worse, we may lose our money or get into lots of trouble because of this. In a word, our life can be affected.
So keeping our personal information safe is important. Be careful not to take part in social surveys easily that ask for our personal information.Is personal information leakage annoying to most of us?

Food wasting is often seen in China. It’s reported that food waste has produced 70% of the country’s increasing rubbish. Especially in restaurants, plenty of food is wasted every day.

Food should be kept at temperatures below 10 ℃ or higher than 70 ℃.But if the packed food is put under room temperatures, they should be eaten within four hours.
