Many times, you no longer need something, but someone else may just need to buy one. For example, if your baby doesn’t like his toy car any longer, why not give it to a nearly family who has a little kid That’s one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. It’s also one less plastic toy that needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy store.
Here are some other ways to help save resources for the society:
★Use the other side of the paper.
★Use rechargeable (可再充电的) batteries for your electric toys, MP3 players, cell phones, and cameras.
★ Choose reusable travel cups instead of disposable (一次性的) paper or plastic cups.
★Take your own cloth shopping bags when you go shopping.
★ Drink tap water instead of buying bottled water.
And there are some things you can exchange with your friends, for example, books, toys, even clothes. It's a way for everyone to get something new without spending any money and without throwing many things away.

五、任务型阅读(每空一个单词)(10分)
Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world. With the development of agriculture and industry, cars have made the air unhealthy for people to breathe and poisonous gas is given off by factories. Trees on the hills have been cut down and waste water is being poured into rivers. We produce lots of waste every day and it is harmful to our environment. We must face the situation and take actions to solve our environment problems. Here are some ideas for you to do better in your life.
Remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle.
Reduce means “Use less”. Don’t waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.
Reuse means “Use again”. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last, and we should repair them instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don’t use a paper cup or a paper bag. It’s better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.
Recycle means “change things into something else”. Although it takes energy to change something into something else, it’s better than throwing away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighborhood and take part in recycling programs. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.
Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to our environment.
Title: __(1)___ to live a green life
situation Producing plenty of waste every day does _(2)__ to our environment. Cars have made the air unhealthy for people to breathe.
Factories __(3)___ off poisonous gas.
People are _(4)____ more and more waste water into rivers and lakes.
