Being on bad terms with your neighbors can make your life frustrating day after day.But taking the time to establish a good relationship with your neighbors has a good many benefits.The community will be friendlier, the neighborhood safer, and the area a nicer place to live in.Therefore, you can do a lot to develop a good relationship with your neighbors.
Whether you're new in the neighborhood or new residents who have just moved into your block, introduce yourself.Say hello, offer a welcoming gift and share or ask about the local area.
Sometimes, you can remedy (补救) problems before they even start; for example, if you do a lot of yard work, let them know in advance and mention that if it's getting too loud, they shouldn't hesitate to let you know.
Be aware of the shared walls, if you and your neighbors share adjacent (相邻的) living space, and try to put noisy household appliances such as washing machines and tumble dryers away from the shared walls.
Keep your pet dog on a leash (皮带)if it has a habit of running rampant on your neighbors' lawns, especially if they have a pet cat or dog of their own, and make sure you clean up after it.
When you park your vehicle, be sure not to block anyone's access, or make them have to pull out of a very tight spot.Don't slam (砰地关上) your car doors late at night.
Weed your garden in a regular way, because the presence of weeds in your yard is not only unsightly but can also spread to your neighbor's yard.
Really good neighbors watch out for each other.They offer to help, especially on matters that impact the larger neighborhood and look for opportunities to communicate.Great neighbors contribute to great neighborhoods.

Born in California in 1913, Nixon had a brilliant record at Whittier College and Duke University Law School before beginning the practice of law. In 1940, he married Patricia Ryan; they had two daughters, Tricia and Julie. During World War II, Nixon served as a Navy commander in the Pacific.
On leaving the service, he was elected to Congress from his California district. In 1950, he won a Senate seat. Two years later, General Eisenhower selected Nixon, aged 39, to be his running mate.
As Vice President, Nixon took on major duties in the Eisenhower Administration. Nominated (提名) for President by loud approval in 1960, he lost by a narrow margin to John F. Kennedy. In 1968, he again won his party’s nomination, and went on to defeat Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey and third-party candidate George C. Wallace.
His achievements while in office included income sharing, new anticrime laws and a broad environmental program. One of the most dramatic events of his first term occurred in 1969, when American astronauts made the first moon landing.
Some of his most publicly praised achievements came in his search for world stability. During visits in 1972 to Beijing and Moscow, he reduced tensions with China and the USSR.
In his 1972 bid for office, Nixon defeated Democratic candidate George McGovern by one of the widest margins on record.
Within a few months, his administration was involved in the so-called “Watergate” scandal, arising from a break-in at the offices of the Democratic National Committee during the 1972 campaign. The break-in was traced to officials of the Committee to re-elect the President. A number of administration officials had to leave office; some were later found guilty of offenses connected with efforts to cover up the affair. Nixon denied any personal involvement, but the courts forced him to hand in tape recordings which indicated that he had, in fact, tried to avoid the investigation.
Faced with what seemed almost certain impeachment (弹劾), Nixon announced on August 8, 1974, that he would resign the next day to begin “that process of mending which is so desperately needed in America.”
In his last years, Nixon gained praise as an elder statesman. By the time of his death on April 22, 1994, he had written numerous books on his experiences in public life and on foreign policy.
