In the Living Room
We all know we should turn off the electrical (用电的) equipment when you are not using it.

And always remember to turn off the lights when you are not using them.
In the Kitchen
Recycle, recycle, recycle. Some cities already require people to sort their rubbish into paper, metals, glass, and organic waste. Even if your city doesn’t, you can follow this growing trend (趋势).
In the Bathroom
Prefer showers to baths. Showers use less water.
In the Home Office
Use recycled paper in your home and office. Use both sides of the paper and give waste paper to the kids or turn it into note paper for the phone tables.

As young students, you have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, such as winning the Nobel Prize. They can also be small. You may just want to become one of the ten best students in you class. Once you find a dream, what do you do with it Do you ever try to make your dream come true
Andrew Matthews, an Australian writer, tells us that making our dreams real is life’s biggest challenge. You may think you’re not very good at some school subjects, or it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of ideas stop you from realizing your dreams.
In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is. Don’t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want every day and your dream will come true faster. You should know that a big dream is, in fact, many small dreams.
Also you must never give up your dream. There will be barriers on the way to your dreams. Don’t be afraid of them. They are not that hard. The biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Turn off the TV. Studying will help you get better exam grades. Don’t buy ice-cream. Saving five yuan means you can buy a new book.
As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. This is good as you have the chance to learn something more useful and find new hobbies.

Do you know the “four treasures of the study” in ancient China They are the writing brush, ink, paper, and the inkstone (砚台) . Among all the inkstones, the Chengni inkstone is one of the most famous inkstones and is widely loved.
The Chengni inkstone first appeared during the Western Han Dynasty, but the skills of making it were lost during the late Ming Dynasty and early Qing Dynasty. Thankfully, today the traditional skills have been revived (复习) with the help of Lin Yongmao and his son Lin Tao.
In 1984, Lin Yongmao began working at the museum in Xinjiang, Shanxi Province. There he read some books about the Xinjiang Chengni inkstone, and then decided to revive the lost skills.
It was easier said than done. It took the father and son two years to find proper materials to produce the Chengni inkstone. That was just the first step. After failing many times, they finally succeeded in making two Chengni inkstones in 1991. Three years later, their Chengni inkstones won a gold prize at an expo (博览会) on China’s famous inkstones.
But the father and son didn’t stop there. While improving the skills of making the Chengni inkstone, they set up a workshop in the hope of passing the skills on to young people. They also worked with universities and colleges to make the Chengni inkstone more popular. At the same time, Lin Tao has created special Chengni inkstone products and brought them to competitions at home and abroad to expand the influence of the Chengni inkstone.

How do you deal with plastic bags from the supermarket Throw them away or reuse them How about eating them
EnviGreen in India has made a bag with natural ingredients (成分). It looks and feels just like plastic, but can be broken down. The bags bring no harm to the environment. Both humans and animals can safely eat them. EnviGreen founder Ashwath Hedge spent four years trying out such a thing of 12 natural ingredients.

How do we know the time A clock, a watch or a mobile phone can help us. However, many years ago there were no clocks and knowing the time was not so easy. Over the centuries people have developed different ways of telling the time.
About 5,500 years ago, the Egyptians (埃及人) invented the sun clock. This was a tall stone building. Its shadow (影子) showed the movement of the sun. So people were able to know midday. The Egyptians made a sundial (日晷) about 3,500 years ago. It was smaller than the sun clock and could let people know the time for half a day. On cloudy days or at night it was impossible to tell the time with a sun clock or a sundial. Water clocks were the first clocks not to use the sun. The idea is simple. Water flows (流动) from one bottle to another. When the water reaches a certain level, it shows the hours. The Egyptians used water clocks about 3,400 years ago. These clocks were popular in the Middle East and China. But they failed to make people know the exact time.
In the 13th century, the mechanical (机械的) clock was invented. This was more exact, but it was expensive to make one. Over the next few centuries it was developed. In 1927, the first quartz (石英) clock was developed. It’s cheaper for ordinary people to own a clock. People began depending on them more and more to run businesses, markets and so on. In 1956, came the digital (数字的) clock. And nowadays satellites send our mobile phones the time to the exact second.
There has been a lot of progress in timekeeping. Clocks are always changing but some things never change. Many of us still have trouble getting out of bed on time and not being late for school or work.
43.According to the passage, we can’t use a ________ to tell the time on a rainy day.
A.water clock B.sun clock
C.digital clock D.mechanical clock
44.How many kinds of clocks are mentioned in the passage
A.Four. B.Five. C.Six. D.Seven.
45.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “ordinary”
A.现代的 B.特殊的 C.富有的 D.普通的
46.What does the passage mainly talk about
A.The importance of time. B.The development of timekeeping.
C.The inventions of clocks. D.The history of a digital clock.

You’re at your new school. It’s lunch time, but you don’t have anyone to sit with. You want to join someone at their table 57 you’re not sure if they’re friendly. What do you do Natalie’s 58 of solving the problem was to create an ape. She knows what it feels like to be alone at a new school. She found it difficult to make new friends and had to 59 a new table at lunch every day. If she sat 60 , she felt lonely. But if she asked to join someone and was 61 , she felt embarrassed (尴尬的). She created a lunch-planning app to help students like 62 find people to have lunch with.
The app called Sit With Us is 63 . If a student is having lunch in the afternoon, he or she can create an invitation. Other students can open the app and 64 that invitation. They can then use the app to decide when and where to 65 . This allows students to make 66 online instead of face-to face. This is the reason why it works so 67 : it lowers (降低) the risk of being refused, and the embarrassment that goes along with it.
Natalie is 68 to see that people are replying to her app actively — especially those who suffer from bullying (遭受欺凌). Soon after her app was used by the public, she won a prize for it. She 69 appeared in many news stories.
Natalie was even asked to speak at a university. In her 70 , Natalie wanted people to know that you don’t have to do something 71 to change lives. Sometimes, a small thing — like having a friend to enjoy lunch with — can make all the difference.
