If I ask you, "Do you practice good hygiene?" You will surely be unhappy and say, "Who doesn't practice good hygiene?" "Then how do you do it?" Among the many answers, what moved me the most was the response of an 11-year-old boy from the "Hand-in-Hand Earth Village." He said, "Control my mouth, don't spit everywhere; control my hands, don't litter; control my feet, don't trample on flowers and grass." The simple "three controls" reveal that this boy truly understands the importance of good hygiene. He knows that practicing good hygiene means loving humanity; controlling oneself protects the shared living environment of humanity. In the fight against SARS, more and more people gradually realize that good hygiene is no longer a personal matter but a major issue concerning the fate of humanity. Loving humanity starts with practicing good hygiene. A child who always pays attention to the fate of humanity will never spit on the ground, urinate or defecate in public, or litter. Because he knows that such actions pollute the environment, spread diseases, and harm others. A child who regards the fate of humanity as a responsibility will definitely wash his hands, face, and body frequently, maintaining personal hygiene. Because he knows that practicing good hygiene means loving humanity. Open this little book, and you can learn many health knowledge.
