     While travelling, you'll be taking money, license or passport. Or you will buy something expensive

to take back home with you and you don't want it to get stolen. Here are some ideas on how to keep

your valuables (贵重物品) safe while traveling

      Plan ahead of time

      Think of what you really need and don't need to take on your trip. Only take the valuables that

you must have, not just ones that you would like to have.

      Carry your valuables on your person

      Something that is small, like cash and credit cards and your passport, can be carried in a money

wallet around your neck or in a money belt. This way, your valuables are hidden and right next to you,

where you know where they are at all times. Wear clothing that can hide the money belt.

      Carry larger valuables in your carry-on bag.

      If you can't fit it in your money wallet like some large valuables, you'd better put them somewhere

that you will keep touch with them. Your can put them on the plane, so you don't have to worry about

the airline losing your bag or someone stealing it from the belt after the flight before you get to it.

      Choose a hotel that has the front desk for valuables.

      This way, you don't have to worry about housekeeping getting hold of your valuables, or someone

stealing your valuables if your room is broken into. If you give the valuables to the front desk to keep

for you, choose a time when others are not looking.

Babies who are slow to gain weight in the first months of their lives generally catch up to their peers by age 13,a large UK study shows, Researchers said the results would make parents whose babies fail to put on weight quickly less worried.

The researchers looked at data from ,11,499 children who took part in a large study, It showed that 507 who were slow to gain weight in the first eight weeks of life recovered fairly quickly and had almost caught up by age 2. Another group of 480 who were slow to gain between eight weeks and nine months continued to put on weight slowly until they were seven years ,but then had a sudden increase and caught up by age 13, The different pattems of recovery between the two groups were likely due to different reasons for slow weight gain ,the researchers said, All the children were still lighter and shorter than their peers by the time they were teenagers ,but within the normal range.

The findings highlight the importance of monitoring a baby’s weight and height gain during the first few weeks and months ,but not creating anxiety with parents of slow-growing babies, said the study leader Prof Alan Emond from the University of Bristol.

“In the past, a lot of parents have been caused unnecessary anxiety by heaith professionals and this is a positive and reassuring message.”He said in many cases of slow growth where children do not follow the standard’curve’(曲线)it is just because they are following their genetic potential.

Dr Simon Newell, vice-president of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, said he broadly agreed with the concluslons of the researchers but stressed that poor weight gain was something that needed to be monitored closely, “I would encourage parents to use growth charts but if measurements show your baby is smaller than averager it may be completely normal, ”he said.
