travel today I expected to have my luggage searched Sylvia: thats understandable. I mean, with all the fear thats out there about terrorism, of course theyre going to check your baggage-especially your carry-ons Paul: I don't mind them checking my baggage. In fact, I expect it. But there seems to be an inverse ratio at work Sylvia: What on earth do you mean? They check everyone's baggage, dont they? Paul: Yes, but here's what's funny The smaller the airport, the greater the security. The less likely a plane is to be hijacked, the more precautions they take Sylvia: Are you serious? Why should a small airport be more aware of security than a large one? Paul: Here's what I've experienced Once at a small airport, they seized a roll of adhesive tape and argued that it could be used in hijack ing. Then they asked me to remove my digital camera from its case and demonstrate that it could take pictures Sylvia: And is this different from a large airport Paul: Accord ing to my experience, it is.

People get jet lag often, especially if they travel far. For example, a flight from New York to Beijing is a tong trip. Passengers will cross many time zones and nay have a bad case of jet lag. However, there are some things that can help reduce jet lag. First. drink a lot of liquids. Water is the best liquid to drink. Also, eat low fat foods during the flight. Noodles are always a good choice. Next try to do some exercise on the plane. Walk around or stretch your muscles. Also, try to adjust your schedule to correspond with the local time as soon as you can. For instance, if you usually go to sleep at 10 p. m, then when the local time is 10 p. m, go to bed. Finally, when you arrive at your destination. get some exercise. Ask the front desk clerk where the hotel's gym is. Remember that if you adjust your schedule to correspond with the local time, your jet lag will not be too bad.
