In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution.They join "environment clubs".{#blank#}1{#/blank#}

    No-garbage(垃圾) lunches. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again.Every week they will choose the classes that make the least garbage and report them to the whole school!

    {#blank#}3{#/blank#}On the no-car day, nobody comes to school by car-not the students and not the teachers!  Cars give pollution to the air, so remember: Walk, jump, bike or run.Use your legs!  It's not only good for the environment but also lots of fun!

    {#blank#}4{#/blank#}Did you know that some toilets could waste twenty to forty cubic meters(立方米)of water an hour? In a year, that would fill a small river！ In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets themselves.

    We love our environment. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}

    We need animals. Every animal has its place in the balance(平衡) of nature. We should try to help save the animals.

    Some people think zoos are good places. The zoos give the animals the comfortable and safe living places. If the animals get hurt or ill, people will take care of them. The zoo is a good place to know the rules in the wild world. We can be much closer to nature. We can know more about the animals in the zoos by watching, listening even smelling instead of just looking at the pictures in books.

    Some people don't think animals feel happy in the zoos. Animals like pandas, wolves and bears usually live in the wild. They play and find food by themselves. They are free and happy in the wild. If they are in the zoos, food is enough and rooms are comfortable. They do not need to do their best to find food to eat or places to stay in. They just walk around, sleep day and night, but they are not free at all.

    I think we should build national parks as wild life nature reserves to protect animals. If we do nothing, animals will get fewer and fewer.

    A month ago the Brown family, who lived in Lyndhurst, had a special experience. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} She was making coffee while her husband, Frank, was watching a comedy program on television. Upstairs(在楼上) their young daughter, Ruth, was asleep in her room and their son, Mark, was doing some homework on his computer. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} However, at the end of the afternoon, it started to change. Soon, it began to rain very heavily. Tina looked out of the kitchen window and saw big storm clouds in the sky. The Browns' dog, Tilly, was in the back garden. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} Shortly afterwards, Tina saw lightning(闪电) in the sky and then everything in the house went dark. Frank was unhappy because the television didn't work. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Then they heard baby Ruth crying. Frank went upstairs to look after the baby but when he climbed the stairs(楼梯) , there was a loud sound and the house seemed to shake. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} A big tree from their garden fell through the window of Ruth's room！Luckily it missed the baby by just half a meter!

    A middle school teacher from Jiangxi Province gave up her job in e 2005. She has spent the past few years establishing(建立) the first intangible cultural enterprise(非物质文化企业) in China to support the traditional art of paper-cutting at home and abroad. He Hong has already held many large exhibitions since she took up the traditional art. Her beautiful creations and outstanding skills attracted lots of people. Now, she is considered as the "Queen" of Chinese paper-cutting by many people nationwide.

    Her father worked in the local cultural center. She had an opportunity to learn from some experienced folk (民间的) artists when she was five. With the increasing skill day by day, she began travelling far and wide to find modern ideas from more people. She looked for inspiration(灵感) wherever she went.

    She worked as a teacher for over ten years. In her teaching time, she coached many students in paper-cutting. And over 150 students received first prizes in paper-cutting contests under her guidance. By chance, she established her own company, aiming to further increase the traditional art's influence. She centered great efforts on studying modern consumption trends(消费趋势). And she has created all kinds of household things to meet the need of the market. To her surprise, all her paper-cutting products have sold well in more than 3,000 stores across the country.

    In the course of running her enterprise ,she has set up a complete supply chain(供给链) including design and production as well as sales. It has made many improvements compared with traditional business models. In addition, she spreads her business to clothes, electronics and gifts, along with other industries.
