Go Green  Enjoy tap water

(1)IT'S THE RESPNSIBLE CHOICE

Producing plastic bottles and transporting water require a lot of energy and resources(资源)…just to land in the waste!

(2)  IT SAVES MONEY

Bottled water costs money. Tap water is free for you!

Go Green  Eat responsibly

 (1)                           

Shorter distance(距离) requires less transport fuels(燃料)…and less chemicals needed to keep food fresh.

(2)EAT LESS MEAT

Meat production needs a lot of resources.

(3)AVOID PACKING

Packaging requires energy and resources just to end up in the waste…

Go Green  Keep it on the screen

…and if printing cannot be avoided remember to:

PRINT DOUBLE-SIDED and in black-white.

Set the printer/copy machine to ENERGY SAVING model when done

REUSE single-sided printed paper for internal documents(内部文件) or as not paper…

Go Green  E-communicate

Reduce what gives out quite a lot of Greenhouse Gas(温室效应气体):instead of traveling, make use of VIDEO MEETING, WEB MEETING, and the good old phone.

    For many smart phone users, especially young people, scanning QR Codes（二维码）has become a new and convenient life style these days. In fact, the QR Code was created in Japan in 1994, but until 11 years later, it was first used in China. It soon became popular around the country. The QR Code is much-loved because it provides a way to get to website more quickly. By scanning QR Codes, people can do lots of things, such as adding new friends, getting information, downloading Apps, shopping and so on. As for the shopping websites, there are usually more sales, including coupons（优惠券）for the phone users. The QR code is so common that people can scan them everywhere. We interviewed 100 people, and here are the results.

When we talk about music, we can think of different {#blank#}1{#/blank#} of music.

Some people like pop music very much, but it often comes and goes so {#blank#}2{#/blank#}. Pop music shows people's feelings of love, friendship, joy and worry in {#blank#}3{#/blank#}, so it's quite popular with young people.

Classical music isn't so popular with young people {#blank#}4{#/blank#} it's the symbol of high music level. We know that classical music sounds {#blank#}5{#/blank#}, and some people can't get its real meaning. That's {#blank#}6{#/blank#} it's not popular with young people.

Folk (民间的) music is different from other music. It is more {#blank#}7{#/blank#}. In American history, folk music began to show up when people needed it most. The {#blank#}8{#/blank#} folk songs are those like Down by the Riverside and We Shall Overcome. The songs are about hard life, {#blank#}9{#/blank#} they are also full of hope. In folk music, people can {#blank#}10{#/blank#} their wishes and dreams about the future. That is why almost everyone can understand it.

People pay close attention to 5G these years. So, what is 5G? The "G" stands for(代表) the generation of your mobile network.5G is the 5th generation mobile networks and it's a hundred times faster than 4G.

The first 5G video call was made on a Huawei Mate X smartph one on March 30, 2019. Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks. Monaco became the first country in Europe to use a next-generation 5G mobile phone network based on technology from Chinese company Huawei.

It sounds obvious, but it's important to understand just how much faster 5G is compared to current 4G speeds. 5G will not only be many, many times faster than your existing connection, and it will be greatly faster than the broadband connection you have at home.

Now, 4G takes about 100 to 200 milliseconds to send and receive data. But 5G will get it down to 1 millisecond or less. This big change will not only make our mobile Internet faster. It can be used in many other ways as well.

For example, 5G will help make self-driving cars safer. Today's self- driving test cars have one problem—lag. When the car "sees" an obstacle(障碍), it sends this information to a data centre and receives instructions. However, it takes time to send and receive this information. With this kind of lag, the cars might crash because they don't receive instructions in time. With 5G, this lag will be greatly lowered, making the cars safer, according to CNN. 5G could also be used to power the Internet of Things (IOT). This refers to a large online network that connects all things and people. Fast Internet speeds will be the key to developing this technology. For example, with IOT under 5G, your fridge could automatically(自动地) place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left inside.

All in all, 5G will shape every type of technology that it touches. And you won't have to wait too long for that to happen. Though we've seen a lot of positive progress just in the last year, we still have a long way to go before 5G is anywhere near as common as 4G is right now.

Have you ever been to Taiwan? Do you want to pay a visit there? We'll show you the best places in Taiwan. Here we'd like to introduce an eight- day tour to you.
