A shopping center in Brazil is growing vegetables on its rooftop using waste collected from the mall's restaurants. The garden is on the roof of the Eldorado shopping center in Sao Paolo. Workers there use trash（垃圾） from the restaurants to create compost（堆肥） for the garden. Compost is used to improve the soil of the garden. A spokesman for the mall says that the waste from 10 ,000 meals served each day in its food court goes into the compost.
Workers grow different kinds of fhiits and vegetables on the rooftop garden,including tomatoes,lettuce and eggplant. The fruits and vegetables grown there provide free food for the employees. Mall officials also hope to reduce the amount of waste that would end up in a garbage dump. This,they hope,will reduce carbon gases entering the atmosphere.
Cicero Evangelista leads the waste recycling effort. He says about 400 kilograms of organic waste are created every day from the mair s'food court.
He says ,“We weigh the material and add enzymes that remove bacteria,reduce humidity （湿度) and accelerate decomposition（分解）. This is how we turn organic waste into organic compost."
Officials at the shopping center want to save as much waste as possible. So,they held workshops for employees to learn how to best collect waste from their stores. Neide Lopes is a food court worker. She says it is helpful to put in the extra work.
“The program is active and creative,and they distribute the produce among us,so it's very good. It is a way of reducing waste,and we receive food that we don't have to pay for,and that's the best part!”
Mall employees say the project reuses waste food to make food and reduces the shopping center's carbon footprint(碳排放量） at the same time.

The “challenges” of family holidays are well-known. It's 1 enough getting on with your husband,wife or kids at home,so how can you 2 yourself while travelling with them? Susan M. Shaw,expert on leisure(休闲) at the University of Waterloo,thinks the term “family leisure” is full of 3 . “Research suggests that such 4 do not always make you feel relaxed,” she writes,darkly.
Family holidays probably,don't add much to the sum of human 5 . However,as one of my friends likes to 6 , people don't have children for happiness. Research has shown that 7 are less happy than childless people. 8 , says my friend,having children is best understood as a biological urge. You have them not for the present but for the 9 ,so that your 客從從(基因) will continue to exist when you are gone. And 10 , you go on family holidays not for the present but for the future.
Thus,the aim of the holiday,much of the time,is to stock up on 11 : to leave all family members with 12 of happiness that they can look back on after the family doesn't exist. Indeed,much of what we remember of our families comes from 13 . On holiday,the family exists more clearly than at any other time: all together for once,14 work,school or friends. On holiday,you are much closer to your 15 . Holiday photographs make that feeling of closeness 16 . In fact,the photographs themselves are perhaps the main 17 of the holiday: that's where the memories get laid down.
A family holiday is for memories. Once you grasp that,you will not 18 it. I vividly remember,about 30 years ago,returning from an Italian 19 to our handsome brick house. 20 we opened the front gate,my mother said,uThat's the best part of a holiday: coming home." At the time I didn't know what she meant.

Oh,you’ve been there: Your parents are insisting you come home by 10 ,when everyone else can stay out until midnight. Your soccer coach keeps benching you. 36 We all have days when we think we might explode.
That's because anger is 101 percent normal — in fact,it ,s rooted in the most primitive of survival mechanisms(机制) . 37 But humans,highly evolved (进化的) brains attach similar meaning to things that aren't life-threatening but produce an equally intense response.
Of course,no one ever got into trouble for having angry thoughts. 38 Think about it: Scream at your parents? Grounded. Eye-roll at your teacher? Sent to detention(课后留校的惩罚) .So consider the following survival guide to making it through those moments when you're about to explode.
First,recognize your anger response. When you’ re angry,your whole body reacts,and your angry feelings can go from zero to out-of-control before they even register in your brain!That's why it's important to pay attenjion to physical signals. 39
Second,pause the passion. It can be impossible to make right decisions when you re angry. So once you ve recognized that you re mad,stop whatever you’ re doing,which will stop your body's anger response and get your brain back on track. Try one of these simple,science-backed methods to freeze your feelings and calm your mind. For example,you can take deep breaths,or close your eyes and count (to 10,to 100 ... whatever it takes!) . 40
Once the heat of the moment is behind you,you may be able to move right on.
A. You’ re angry,and who wouldn't be?
B. People sometimes lose control and get violent.
C. A simple “Hey man,not cool” would probably do the trick.
D. Or shift your focus to something pleasant to lift your spirits.
E. It is what you do about your anger that makes all the difference.
F. When an animal is threatened,it feels anger as a signal to fight to stay alive.
G. Learn to recognize them on the spot and you'11 be able to keep your anger in check.
