Olerse la tostada 👃🍞. To smell the toast? 🥴

在汉语中，词序和虚词是表达语法意义的重要手段。很多时候变换词序就能改变句子原本的意思。于佑任先生是一位著名的书法家，他的墨宝千金难买。曾经有一段时间于先生住在乡下，居住环境不是很好，总是有人在他的房子附近小便，于是，他写了一句话禁止路人小便。他的秘书拿到这句话，心里冒出了一个主意……

Do you find it difficult to manage your time? What about other people you know? Do you think this is an effect of the modern world or something else? Today Nick discusses some ideas around this to help you with IELTS speaking Part 3 and Writing Part 2.

Why do some people struggle to manage their time effectively?

More and more people are once again booking flights to exciting places around the world.

But as they take their seats, many travelers will remember that spending time with other passengers is not always easy.

Travel website Only Wanderlust surveyed over 1,500 travelers about the most annoying passengers on a plane.

Nine percent of travelers agreed that people who kick your seat are the most annoying passengers. Here are the top 10 on the list.

A passenger who kicks your seat.
A passenger who doesn't smell too nice.
A passenger who talks loudly.
A passenger who pulls on — or pushes against — your seat.
A drunk passenger.
Crying babies or children.
A passenger in front of you reclining their seat.
A passenger wearing strong smelling perfume.
A passenger who doesn't wear their mask correctly.
A passenger who snores when sleeping.
Number seven on the list is a topic that is often discussed.

In the survey, Only Wanderlust asked if passengers have a right to recline their seats, and almost two out of three travelers said that they did.

The website also asked some airline companies about the right to recline. None of the airlines said they had a policy on this topic. But they recommended talking to the passenger in front or behind, or if there is an argument, asking a member of staff for help.

As for crying babies: they can't really help it. But as we get older, perhaps we can all try to think about the people around us when we're on a plane.
