As we all know, the environment around us is getting worse and worse. In some places we can’t see fish 16 in the river or trees on the hills. Some people even have no clean water to drink.
Recently, a new lifestyle called low-carbon life(低碳生活) is 17 to every corner of our country. The meanings of low-carbon are 18 energy and no waste. It is such an important project that I can’t wait 19 my ideas on how to promote it.
First, we should 20 a no-car day every week in the school, because cars not only cause serious air pollution but also waste energy. 21 the no-car day, neither students nor teachers 22 drive to school. They should just walk or run. Use our 23 and enjoy the fun.
Second, we had better not use plastic bags 24 . No one can stand white pollution, 25 it is wise to use cloth bags which can 26 again and again.
27 , one thing that we should keep in mind is that big things come from small details. So, as students, we should turn 28 the lights the moment we leave a room, use 29 sides of the paper, reuse our textbooks and so on.
All in all, it means a lot for all of us 30 the low-carbon lifestyle into practice. Just set our mind to these: no-car days, no plastic bags and no waste. Let’s do it now.

If your answers are “yes”, then read on! Here are a few easy things you could do to get started.
Neighbourhood watch
If you go away on holiday and leave your house, it’s very nice to know that a neighbour is keeping an eye on it. It’s a good way to make the area you live in safer.

There are often elderly people living in the neighbourhood who may not be able to do the things that you can. Offer to do their shopping once a week, look after their gardens for them or maybe walk their dogs!
No littering
Nobody likes picking up other people’s rubbish, but a clean street can make a big difference. Take it in turns to go out once or twice a week and see what you can find.
Recycling
Nearly two thirds of your rubbish can be recycled. Some areas have already provided places for people to recycle bottles, plastic and paper. Find out if this is done in your neighbourhood. If it’s not, do something about it.
If you are interested in our project, just tell us! You can email us at help@first.org and we’ll send you more details.

Recycling is a way to take rubbish and turn it into new products. It’s helpful to our environment. There are a number of different recycling steps that allow materials to be used more than once.
All kinds of materials can be recycled. Some of these most common things in use today include recycling plastic, glass, metals and paper. Things made of these materials include soda cans, plastic boxes, newspapers, computers and cardboard boxes.
There are a number of advantages for recycling. These include: landfills(垃圾填埋场)—Recycling materials means less rubbish and saves space in landfills; resources(资源)—When we use materials again, this means we can take fewer resources from the Earth; pollution—In general, recycling materials can produce less pollution, helping to keep our environment clean.
Be sure to recycle everything in your house and school. There is almost a “recycling” rubbish can around. Be sure to drop your used aluminum(铝) cans and plastic bottles there. At home, be sure to put paper things like the newspapers, paper boxes, and homework pages into the recycling box. Used paper can be recycled around seven times.
Plastics are usually marked with an identification code(识别代码) that shows a recycling symbol and a number from 1 to 7.This shows the type of the chemicals or the material used in making the plastic.
It is high time we set up a recycling station in every street, across the city and the country, so the cleaners can transport the rubbish conveniently. This is the only way out for handling rubbish without causing danger to the environment and our health. For ourselves, our children and our children’s children, let’s take action now!

Farmer Pak Sadiman has made it his task to do something about Central Java’s water shortage problem, little by little.
He has changed his dry village into a place rich in groundwater by planting trees on nearby land for the last 19 years, and he is encouraging others to join in, too.
Sadiman realized that the land was in need of some water when the Gendol River—previously(以前) the source of water for villagers—was quickly drying up. Even rubber trees, the local people’s main source of income(收入来源), were so dry that they could no longer produce rubber latex(橡胶乳). It was then that Sadiman took action so that his children and grandchildren could take advantage of the planted trees.
“Banyan trees(榕树), unlike rubber trees, can keep groundwater. The more banyan trees are planted, the more clean water villagers will get,” he thought. Although he went through a hard time, the farmer never became discouraged from achieving his goal—providing his village with a clean water source.
He’s planted at least 11,000 trees over the last 19 years, and his village seems to have escaped from the dry season. Villagers have joined in Sadiman’s efforts and worked alongside him to plant the trees. “Pak Sadiman is our hero. This village used to fight with water shortage, but now we have enough water because of him,” said the head of the village.
Sadiman said as long as he’s healthy, he’ll continue to plant trees to help provide clean water for his villagers.
根据上面短文的内容回答问题(每个小题答案不超过6个单词)。
66.What problem did the village have
67.By planting trees, what has Sadiman changed his dry village into
68.How long has Sadiman been working on the task
69.Which kind of trees can keep groundwater, banyan trees or rubber trees
70.What do you think of Sadiman
B
If you live in Shanghai, you have to sort rubbish, as the city has introduced new rubbish-sorting regulations(规定).
It’s now required(要求) that people should sort rubbish into four types. They are recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. However, if people don’t sort their rubbish properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan. More Chinese cities are introducing similar regulations, following the practice in Shanghai.
According to a study, over 90 per cent of the public believe that rubbish sorting is important for the protection of the environment. However, rubbish sorting is still a big problem in China. Only 30 per cent of the participants(参与者) said they think that they are sorting their rubbish. According to Xinhua News Agency, it’s partly because many people lack(缺乏) the willingness to sort their own waste. In the past, some old rubbish regulations didn’t give clear fines to people who didn’t sort rubbish.
Liu Xinyu, a researcher(研究员) of the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences, told China Daily that the importance of the new regulations in Shanghai is to change the past voluntary action into compulsory(强制性的) action for everyone.
In Japan waste sorting has become a basic survival skill. There is a fixed(固定的) time for dealing with each kind of rubbish and littering can lead to high fines and the person who litters may even be put into prison(监狱). In Germany too, the government advises people to sort waste into specific types. For example, in Berlin, people have yellow bins for plastic and metals and blue bins for paper and cardboard.
根据上面短文内容填空。
71.The new rubbish-sorting regulations in Shanghai ask people into four types. They are recyclable, harmful, waste.
72.If people to sort their rubbish properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan. More cities are introducing similar regulations, following the practice in Shanghai.
73.According to a study, 90 per cent of the public believe that to sort rubbish for the protection of the environment.
74.Liu Xinyu told China Daily that the importance of the new regulations in Shanghai is the past voluntary action into compulsory action .

To Be a Better Citizen
As middle school students, I think we have lots of things to do if we want to be a better citizen.
Firstly, it’s our duty to protect the environment. We shouldn’t throw litter everywhere. Instead we can put it in the dustbins. Secondly, we should keep ourselves safe all the time. For example, we should follow the traffic rules and shouldn’t swim in the river by ourselves. Thirdly, try to develop a good living habit. Play sports for at least one hour a day and don’t stay up too late. Fourthly, we should be friendly to others, and be ready to help others.
If we follow these, we will be a better citizen.
