Your ears let you hear the things around you. You should cleanyour ears all the time. Don't listen to loud music, and try to avoid placesthat are really loud. Protect your ears when you play sports.

Your nose cleans the air you breathe and lets you smell things.Avoid things that have very strong smells.

Your tongue helps you taste things you eat and drink. Your skinprotects your body from germs and gives you sense of touch. Always wash yourhands after blowing your nose, playing outside, or using the restroom. Protectyour skin from sunburns. Use sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun.

每个人都有5种感觉官能,分别是视觉,听觉、嗅觉、味觉和触觉。不同的感觉官能对应不同的身体部位,所以我们要好好照顾这些身体器官。

例如,看东西要用到眼,每个人都应该保护自己的眼睛并定期去医院检查视力。不要离电视或电脑屏幕太近,不要在黑暗中或昏暗的灯光下看书,也绝对不要直视太阳或其他强光。

听周围的声音要用到耳朵。要时常清洁耳朵,听音乐时音量不宜过大,注意避开嘈杂的地方,而且运动时也要注意保护耳朵。

鼻子能净化我们吸入体内的空气并让我们闻出物体的气味。要避免接触具有刺激性气味的物体。

舌头能让我们品尝食物和饮料的味道。皮肤会阻挡病菌进入体内并让人拥有触觉。擤鼻子、外出玩耍以及上卫生间之后一定要洗手。为了防止皮肤晒伤,还应该涂抹防晒霜以阻隔烈日的暴晒。
