Robert Swan wanted to be an adventurer (冒险家) when he was 11. He wanted to become the first person to walk to both the North Pole and the South Pole (南极和北极). People told him he was crazy, but he never gave up his dream.
In January 1986, Swan and his team reached the South Pole for the first time. Just three years later, Swan created a new team to head for the North Pole.
During those two long trips, Swan noticed some terrible things. At the South Pole, the color of his eyes changed because of a kind of rays. This kind of rays are harmful to both humans and the environment. At the North Pole, the ice started to melt (融化) four months earlier than the usual “melt season”. These two things made Swan realize the poles were in danger. He thought he must do something.
Now he works to help people pay more attention to the environment protection, especially the poles. Swan hopes that he can not only save the two amazing places, but also help protect humans’ health. Because protecting the nature is protecting ourselves.

For boys who no longer have fathers there is an organization called Big Brothers. College students and other men take these boys to baseball games or on fishing trips and help them to get to know things that boys usually learn from their fathers.
Each city has a number of clubs where boys and girls can go to play games or learn crafts. Some of these clubs show movies or organize short trips to the mountains, the beaches,museums or other places of interest. Most of these clubs use a lot of high school and college students as volunteers because they are young enough to remember the problems of younger boys and girls.

A．Because they have a lot of free time.
B．Because they know how to do the work.

The earth is about 4,600 million years old. Modern man has lived on the earth for only 35,000 years, but during that time, we have changed our planet in many ways. Many of the things that we have done are good, but more are not good for the earth.
Water Pollution
A lot of people, birds and fish die each day because of water pollution. Factories have polluted the land and the water. As a result, many rivers and lakes are now dead.
Air Pollution
In big cities, factories, as well as cars, trucks and buses are the main causes of air pollution. Many people in cities now have serious health problems. For example, Mexico city used to be a beautiful sunny capital, but today it is always covered by thick brown clouds.
Soil Pollution
In order to have a good harvest, most of the farmers use chemicals too much in their fields. That’s bad for the soil. But this kind of pollution is difficult to stop.
Hope For The Future
These problems are very serious for our future, so all of us should do something to improve our environment. If we can stop pollution, our planet will become more and more beautiful and our health will be better. Let’s be greener people!
