reaching the four-minute limit. The spikes won’t make you feel painful, but you can’t stand in the
shower anymore because the spikes take up all the space. You have to get out and stop using too
much water.

Be Careful about Energy Drinks
Be careful what you drink; something that looks cool may not be good for your health.
The weather is getting hotter and you’ll be getting 61 after playing basketball or
riding home from school.
A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you pour down your throat;
something that looks cool may not be good for your health.
There are plenty of so-called energy drinks on the market. Most of them have an attractive
color and cool name. But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have high
levels of caffeine (咖啡因). These drinks are aimed at people of different jobs and ages, 62
young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make
you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.
Caffeine raises your heartbeat. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has
limited their use. The amount of caffeine in most energy drinks is 63 as high as in a
strong cup of coffee or strong tea.
64 by Australian scientists has found that many teenagers are affected by caffeine.

How much time do you spend taking a shower Do you often sing in the shower, wasting
water while taking your wash slowly Now a special curtain wifi make sure you cut it down to
four minutes.
The curtain was specially designed for those who spend long time in the bathroom.
Elisabeth Buecher, from London has created the product to force people to change their
water-wasting habits.
The shower curtain was named Spiky, and it has soft plastic spikes. The spikes hang on the
wall during the shower, but after you spend four minutes washing up, the spikes will fill with air,
and kick you out as the shower becomes an uncomfortable experience.
Spiky has a sensor (传感器) , and it causes the colorful spikes to stand up outward after
reaching the four-minute limit. The spikes won’t make you feel painful, but you can’t stand in the
shower anymore because the spikes take up all the space. You have to get out and stop using too
much water.
Buecher calls Spiky the “green soldier” because it aims to get people to save water. It has
successfully started a debate around the water issues and made people pay attention to how much
water they are using. The curtain is not only a product, but also a piece of art.
Buecher said, I would love to develop it into a commercial (商业化的) product. People get
excited about Spiky for different reasons: design, ecology, education and art.

Be Careful about Energy Drinks
Be careful what you drink; something that looks cool may not be good for your health.
The weather is getting hotter and you’ll be getting 61 after playing basketball or
riding home from school.
A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you pour down your throat;
something that looks cool may not be good for your health.
There are plenty of so-called energy drinks on the market. Most of them have an attractive
color and cool name. But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have high
levels of caffeine (咖啡因). These drinks are aimed at people of different jobs and ages, 62
young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make
you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.
Caffeine raises your heartbeat. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has
limited their use. The amount of caffeine in most energy drinks is 63 as high as in a
strong cup of coffee or strong tea.
64 by Australian scientists has found that many teenagers are affected by caffeine.
The results of their study show that 27 percent of boys aged 8-12 take in more caffeine than their
