One of my favorite things is hiking in mountains. Because nobody likes the idea of getting lost,I always prepare before every trip. But what’s the best navigation(导航)tool,a Global Positioning System(GPS) or a good old map and a compass?
Five of my friends and I hiked through the mountains on a trail (路线)I marked. One team of three carried a GPS,and the other team used a map and a compass.It took the GPS team 3 hours and 11 minutes to get through the whole hike. However,it took the map and compass team only 2 hours and 49
minutes. The biggest problem the GPS team met was that they lost the satellite signal(卫星信号)in some places. With no map or compass,they had to walk around until they were in a place where the signal was good. The map and compass team was able to spot different landmarks,compare them to their maps and then use the compass to point them in the right direction.
When I head out on my future hike,I will bring a map,a compass and a GPS to show me the way.

Fashion isn’t very environmentally-friendly,because it makes people buy things they don’t need,just because they’re new. We want to take care of the environment,so we don’t want to pollute the air and we don’t want to waste energy and resources. But we also want to be fashionable. How can we buy fashionable clothes and protect the environment?
Old styles are fashionable again,so one way is to buy second-hand clothes—recycled clothes. Another way is to buy fair trade clothes. These clothes are either recycled or made in a way that protects the environment. They also protect the people who make the clothes.
Surprisingly,white cotton is one of the least environmentally-friendly crops of all. To protect the cotton,the growers use chemicals that pollute water,make farm workers ill and kill wildlife. New materials,such as hemp and bamboo,grow quickly and are more environmentally -friendly. These materials are very soft,and look fantastic. The best materials are coloured by using natural dyes which is made from plants.
Environmentally-friendly clothes are practical but until now they were often dull. Now fashion-designers are working with these materials and the clothes are beautiful as well. So now we can buy fashionable clothes that are also environmentally-friendly.
