What does it mean to be green? Green is more than just a color. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment. Buying a green product is a small step everyone can take. Deciding whether a product is green, however, isn't always easy. We need to consider the whole life cycle of the product even after it's of no use. Here is what we may keep in mind.

The materials of a product are usually our first focus (关注). What is it made of? Are there any harmful chemicals in it? Green products are made of more natural materials which are free from harmful chemicals, so they can be good for our physical health.

Packaging is important. How is a product packaged? Is it over packaged? We'd better choose glass, metal and paper packaging, as these can be reused or more easily recycled. We can also look for less packaging or even choose unbagged products whenever possible.

Location (地点) matters. Where was a product produced? Where are we buying it? Think about how much energy was used to get it to us. Try to choose local products. When it comes to food, it is a good idea to order directly from local farmer, shop at markets and buy fruits in season. Buying from stores near our houses is also a good choice, because we can go there without driving a car.

Look into what the company tells us about their products. It's easy to say that a product is "green" or "all natural" but the words may be too good to be true. So much of the information about a product should be taken with a grain of salt. After all, companies try to make us believe that their products are  environmentally responsible.

The greenest thing is certainly the one we don't buy. Things like food and clothing are necessary for life. But many others are not. Better than buying is choosing to leave an unnecessary product in the store and doing without. It sends a message to the producer, keeps money in our pockets, reduces (减 少) waste and keeps the planet healthy.

 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

①As Ghandi once said, "Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, your actions become your habits, your habits become your values, your values become your destiny (命运)."

②Your values are taught to you by different influences that you grew up around and that every person has, your parents, friends, teachers and the society in which you live. Your values are to guide you throughout your life choices.

③I've come to have many values of my own, and my most important value is compassion. I began to know and feel it from a young age when I realized that I enjoy helping others. Growing older I did as many things as I could to help anyone in need, I didn't care what I got in return. I just enjoy the thought that someone needs me. I would babysit during the summer for my neighbors and didn't ask for pay in return. Makayla, my childhood best friend and I would volunteer to help the old people in the old people's home.

④Another main value that is important to me is politeness. When I walk through a door, I always tell myself to look around and see if anyone is near me. If not, I will continue through the door, but if someone is close behind, I prefer to wait a bit longer and hold the door open for them. I enjoy smiling at people and let them know that I care, even if I don't know them.

⑤Aristotle said, "You are what you repeatedly do. Excellence is not an event, it is a habit." Now I'm still being taught many values that will become a habit in the future. Although my main two that I talked about are so important to me, I still have many more values. These values will help me in deciding my future and point me in a positive direction.

 在每小题所给的三个选项中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳答案。
