Charter schools in the US operate with public money but without many of the rules that govern traditional public schools. In the United States the rules for charter schools are different from state to state. But in general these schools have greater freedom to decide what and how to teach.
A charter school might have nothing to do with the local public school system. It might be started by teachers, parents, community groups or a profit-making business.
Forty-seven million students go to traditional public schools. And more than a million students go to charter schools.
And now a group of charter schools have formed the Green Charter Schools Network. The idea is to have environment friendly school buildings but also to go further than that.
The schools teach students to give lots of time and attention to the community problems that affect them and the environment. For example, young children grow vegetables in a school garden and learn about healthy eating. Older students help recycle waste from restaurants. And local schools share what they grow in community gardens with people in need.
Jim McGrath is president of the Green Charter Schools Network. He says there are about two hundred “green” charter schools across the United States. And the Green Charter Schools Network holds its first national conference this October in Minnesota. Supporters of green schools say their goal is to let the movement be popular across the country.

       Most people can think of a sport they would love to see in the Olympics. But they often don’t realize how hard it is to add a sport to the Olympics .A sport needs to be well-organized and popular before the Interracial Olympic Committee (IOC) will consider it. An international federation must govern(控制)the sport by making rules and making sure athletes meet Olympic standards(标准). What’s more ,men from at least 75 countries and women from at least 40 must play the sport.

       However ,even meeting those conditions isn’t enough. The IOC always tries to keep the member of athletes at about 10,000 for each Olympics .Since most modern Olympics already include so many athletes ,introducing a new sport often means cutting other events .

       The country that hosts the games is allowed to suggest what new sports should be included. While new sports are added to the Olympics ,most of them will simply become events in another sports meeting. In Beijing, open water swimming will become part of swimming, while women’s steeplechase(障碍赛)will be added to athletics.
