    Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they don't have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these 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 (资源) and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste comes from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, 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 plastic 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 canteen（食堂）, use your own bowl and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.

I am in London now. I {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(live)and eat with Mr. and Mrs.Green. They {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(be)very nice to me.{#blank#}3{#/blank#}sometimes I don't feel happy because we like different food.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#}breakfast，Mr. and Mrs.Green would like milk，eggs，and some vegetables.Sometimes they have fruit. I{#blank#}5{#/blank#}(will)like milk and eggs，but I don't like vegetables at the breakfast time.Lunch is at one o'clock.Mr.and Mrs.Green usually have large hamburgers. I {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(not)like hamburgers. I think they are {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(healthy)．I would like some noodles. After that，I'd like some fruit，like bananas，oranges or apples.They usually have afternoon tea，but I don't like {#blank#}8{#/blank#}．

For dinner，Mr. and Mrs. Green{#blank#}9{#/blank#}(have)soup，beef，vegetables and fruit. I don't like{#blank#}10{#/blank#}(some)beef. I'd like some rice and vegetables.

A. Listen when your parents are speaking. If you do so, they will listen to you as well.When true communication takes place, you will find it interesting to talk with them.

B. Find time to have fun with your parents. When you and your parents are free, you can play games together. It's a good way to.communicate with each other.

C.Write down what you want to say. You don't have to write down every word and even a few key points can help remind you of important things to talk about.

D.Find the right time and place. Make sure that your parents have enough time to talk with you. Don't talk in public places or when they have many things to do.

E. Don't argue with your parents. Be patient when you disagree with them. If you speak to your parents impolitely or even argue with them, it will hurt all of you.

F.Be brave to talk to your parents. They love you and are willing to support you, so anything you want to say will be welcome. Don't be shy and why not have a try?

Once upon a time, there was a kind of bird called" dodo". {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(实际上), we can only see them in {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(博物馆) now. 

In the old days, they lived on an island in the Indian Ocean. There was {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(大量) of food for them to eat. All the animals on the island were {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(友好的) to each other. They lived a {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(和平的) and safe life there. 

However, humans {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(到达) on the island in 1598. They cut down trees and destroyed(破坏) the homes of animals. People {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(猎杀) the birds easily because they were slow and couldn't fly. As a result, the birds soon {#blank#}8{#/blank#}(死亡) out. So today, we can't see them in the real world. 

The world is {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(满是......的) of {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(极好的) animals. We should try our best to protect them and help them. 

 Students all over the world like sports. There are many kinds of sports. Many students like to play them. 

 In China, students like playing ping-pong best. They often play it after class. They like basketball and volleyball, too. But they are busy at school, so they don't often play sports. 

 In the USA, students play sports every day. They often play basketball. But soccer is their favourite sport. They like swimming and running, too. They think sports are great. 

 In the UK,      ▲      . Watching football games on TV is their favorite. They often play sports with their family or friends on Saturdays and Sundays. They like sports very much. 

 Playing sports is good for our health and it can make us happy. Let's do sports!
