I think people should do more things online at home. Why pollute the air ( by driving your car to the supermarket when you can order your weekly shopping on the Internet? You can also book holidays as well. Posted hy Billy on June 1 1th 7 ：.36 a.m. |
I try to use public transportation whenever I can. I take the bus to college and walk home. When my mum wants to give me a lift, I always refuse, as I can get there quickly by bus. Also, the buses in my town arc electric, I so they are environmentally friendly ！ Posted by Carol on June 12th 10 ：35 a.m. |
Why not use two wheels? Any motorcycle will use less fuel (燃料）than a car. You don't get caught in traffic jams either ！ But in my opinion, the best things are bicycles. They don't produce any pollution and help you to keep fit at the same time. Posted by Daz on June 12th 16:00 p.m. |
I can't get to my university by bus or train. So I found three other girls who live nearby and share my car with them. And now we take it in turns to drive every day. I have cut down the cost―and most importantly, I am protecting the environment ！ Posted by Angela on June 15th 9 ：36 p.m. |

Sky and Canfield are two seaside towns,not far from each other. Both towns have many hotels,and in the summer the hotels are full of holidaymakers and other people.
Last August there was a fire at the Star Hotel in Sky. The next day,this news was on page two of the town's newspaper―The Sky Post： Fire at Star.
Late last night firemen (消防队员) hurried to the Star Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette (香烟) started the fire. We say again to all our visitors, "Please don't smoke cigarettes in bed."This was Sky's first hotel fire for five years.
The Canfield Times gave the news in these words on page one： Another Sky Hotel Catches Fire.
Last night Sky firemen arrived just too late to save clothing,bedclothes and other things at the Star Hotel. An angry holidaymaker said, "An electric lamp (电灯) probably started the fire. The bedroom lamps are very old at some of these hotels. When I put my bedside light on,I heard a funny noise from the lamp."We are glad to tell our readers that this kind of accident does not happen in Canfield.

A Young Girl's Big Dream When you talk about golf,you may think of Tiger Woods. ButChinaalso has great golf players. One Junior 2 student from Guangzhou,Feng Shanshan,may be China's Tiger Woods one day!On April 14,she helped China win the second place in the Asian Women's Queen Sirikit Cup ("皇后杯"亚洲女子业余高尔夫球队际邀请赛) inJiangmen,Guangdong.

But I'm strong,and I can hit the ball hard," Feng said, "Now,Fm doing what I'm good at!" Not everyone can be a good golfer. Games often go on for several hours over a few days.

Staying on Top at School Feng plays golf all the time,but she also works hard on her studies. There are more than 600 Junior 2 students at Tianhe Middle School in Guangzhou,and she is one of the top 30.
She takes her school books with her to games. "Good golf players must be smart," Feng said, "so I must study hard. " And hard work makes her happy. And playing golf brings a lot to her life. "I've made a lot of older friends at games," she said, "and playing golf teaches me to be a nice person all the time."
Feng is young,but she has a big dream;She wants to be the first Chinese to play on the LPGA Tour (女子职业高尔夫巡回赛) .She also wants to play for China in the 2006 Asian Games in Doha (多哈) ，Qatar (卡塔尔) ！

An elderly (年长的，老的，渐老的) builder was ready to retire. He told his employer of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more comfortable life with his wife. He would miss the paycheck,but he needed to retire. They could manage.
The employer was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The builder said yes,but at that time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He built it carelessly and used poor materials. It was an unfortunate way to end his career.
When the builder finished his work,the employer came to him and handed the front door key to the builder. "This is your house," he said. "My gift to you."
What a shock!What a shame!If he had only known he was building his own house,he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the home he had built！
So it is with us. Sometimes we build our lives carelessly,willing to put up less than the best. At important points we do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we find that we are now living in the house we have built. If we had realized it before,we would have done it differently.
Think of yourself as the builder. Think about your house. Each day you hammer a nail,place a board,or set up a wall. Build wisely. It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you can live for only one day more,that day is worthy to be lived well. Life is a do-it-yourself project.
Who could say it more clearly? Your life today is the result of your attitudes and the choices in the past. Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.

Two years ago,I bought my girlfriend Nicole a pair of fur earmuffs (耳套) .She loved the gift and she wore them every day.
Last week,Nicole was on her way home from work,taking the New York City subway. The train stopped at Union Square. As Nicole stepped through the subway door,the earmuffs fell from her head,and dropped on the rails (铁轨) below. Nicole was upset. "Dot't go down to the rails," somebody shouted to her. Good advice. Union Square is a busy station,with trains running past nearly every minute,and there's electricity running through the rails.
Nicole walked up to a subway worker and explained what had happened. "Sony,I can't help you," the worker said. "Maybe you could use a stick or something to fish it out." Where would she get something like that at the subway station? Disappointed,Nicole walked back to where the earmuffs fell. A homeless man was sitting right near the place. Nicole didn't notice him there earlier. Next to the man was a small box,full of various (各种各样的) junk he had collected. " Excuse me," Nicole said, "but you don't have a stick by any chance,do you? My earmuffs fell...”
The man looked at his things and pulled out a long wooden stick. He went to where the earmuffs fell and used the stick to reach down to them. It was difficult to do so,and he had to stop when a train was coming,but the man didn't give up. At last,he got the earmuffs onto the end of the stick and brought them back up to Nicole.
Nicole was grateful. She also said she would give the man some money for helping her. But the man said there was no need to do so.

I really enjoyed our class visit to Mr Smith's farm. It was my first visit to a real farm. The first thing I noticed was the smell. Everywhere smelled of animals. Then I noticed the noise. I could hear many noises but I did not know which animals made them.
During the day we saw sheep,pigs,cows,dogs and two old horses called Boris and Max. We also saw the farmer's tractor,which was driving up and down the corn fields.
But the best of all was milking the cows. Farmer Smith asked me to try. I was worried,but after a while I found it easy to pull the cow's udder (牛、羊等的乳房) and let the hot white milk flow down into the pen. I want to go back to the farm and do it again,It was a lovely day.
