Have you ever stayed in a hotel Most hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers (拖鞋). Many guests like the idea because they do not have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Shanghai, remember to bring your own things. Some hotels in Shanghai no longer provide guests with some disposables. They want to ask people to use less disposable things.
Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources and is very bad for the environment. Do you know that one person makes as much as 400 kg of waste a year Most of that waste comes from disposable things. Plastic can take 100 to 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw away, the better. Wherever you travel, it is better to bring your own things and use them again and again.
Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life. Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a cloth bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use paper cups. At your school dining hall, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.
( )36．Why do many hotels provide guests with some disposable things

The Great Barrier Reef (大堡礁) is the world’s longest reef. It is over 2,300 km long and lies along the north-eastern coast (海岸) of Australia. The reef has millions of corals (珊瑚). It is home to over 1,500 different kinds of fish.How did the Great Barrier Reef come to life
The Great Barrier Reef we see today is around 10,000 years old. About 10,000 years ago, at the end of the last Ice Age, the ice turned into water and poured the land on Australia’s coast. The shallow (浅的) water became the perfect place for corals to grow. Over thousands of years, they joined together and created the Great Barrier Reef today.Why is the Great Barrier Reef dying
