眼藥水治上感·醋泡冰糖止咳化痰·A Good/Bad Egg

眼藥水治上感

上呼吸道感染初患者,鼻咽處會感到干燥疼痛,此時可用潔霉素眼藥水滴入兩眼內,并盡量使眼藥水在眼內滯留的時間長些,不要很快擦掉。這樣藥水就會通過淚腺流入鼻咽喉處,迅速起到消炎鎮痛的作用,減輕疼痛感。每日數次,每次1—2滴,感冒很快就會痊愈。

醋泡冰糖止咳化痰

老陳醋和上好的冰糖等份,將冰糖搗碎后置入容器,再倒入陳醋,浸泡2天待冰糖溶解后即可服用。有咳喘、多痰等癥的中老年人,早飯前、晚飯后各服10～15毫升,可長期服用。

有兩種蛋你可能不知道,一種是好蛋,另一種是壞蛋。這種說法從19世紀50年代便流行開來,“a good egg”是指好人,如“查理是一個又善良又慷慨的好人。”相對地,“a bad egg”是指壞人,也就是俗語說的壞蛋,如“威廉是一個粗魯無禮、惹人討厭的家伙,大伙都說他是個壞蛋。我也這么認為。”
