The population of the Earth is growing faster. It is important that we look after the Earth. We need it! The Earth gives us a lot of things. We also give the Earth a lot, but some of the things are not good.

In nature, when something dies, other animals and plants get food from it. Every animal or plant gives food for other animals or plants. However, animals can’t get food from many of the things that we ‘give’ the Earth. Animals and plants can’t eat metal, plastic and glass. These things will stay in the ground for many, many years.

Some rubbish is very dangerous for plants and animals. In some places, many animals live together. One animal makes food for many more animals. If we put rubbish and chemicals in the water, the plankton(浮游生物) can die. If there isn’t any plankton, many animals have nothing to eat.
So what can we do? Don’t leave any rubbish in the countryside! Don’t make so much rubbish!

The most positive person I have ever seen is my dad! He is so positive that I do not      hearing a single word from him which is related to hopelessness!
Unlike most mums and dad, my dad never says things that make me feel      . He is always there to give me encouragements and help.     I do wrong things, he always tells me what’s right in a positive way. For example, if I am in     , he often tells me to open the books he bought me. Then he asks me to read the stories that can help me with the problems I’m facing. After that, we have a      together.
Even though I’m not always a good kid, my dad    shouts or gets angry with me. I know that he’s     a day——a day when I grow up and understand things in my life.
I can see the reason that he is so positive is because he believes in himself. And he believes that whatever     , it is under control. So we have nothing to worry about. Be positive!

Eighth-grader Victoria Bills is talking about money with her classmates. She is worried that a company’s stock (股票) price could fall. It may be an unusual topic of conversation for a 13-year-old. But at Bills’ school in Chicago, US, you hear it all the time.
The Chicago school’s 420 students learn about economic(经济学). They also get a chance to make money. Each 1^st grade and 5^th grade, students learn the basics of economics and investing(投资).

Before my first summer vacation at college, my roommate Ted asked me to work with him on his father’s farm in Argentina. The idea of spending two months in Argentina was exciting. But I was afraid of it. I had never been far from New England. What would it be like in a strange country? What about the language? The more I thought about it, the more the idea worried me.
In the end I turned down the invitation. As soon as Ted asked somebody else to go, I began kicking myself. I had turned down something I wanted to do because I was afraid, and had ended up feeling depressed (沮丧的) . That unhappy summer taught me a valuable lesson out of which I developed a rule for myself: do what makes you worried; don’t do what makes you depressed.
At the end of my senior year, I began to think about becoming a writer. But my professor was telling me to aim at teaching. I hesitated (犹豫). The idea of trying to live by writing was a lot scarier than spending a summer in Argentina. Back and forth I went, making my decision, unmaking it. Suddenly I realized that every time I gave up the idea of writing, that downhearted feeling went through me.
Giving up on what I really wanted to do depressed me. Right then I learned another lesson. To avoid that kind of depression meant having to bear a certain amount of worry and concern.
When I first began writing articles, I was frequently required to interview big names. Before each interview I would get anxieties (焦虑) in the mind and my hands would shake. One person I particularly admired was the great composer Duke Ellington. On the stage and on television, he seemed the very model of confidence. Then I learned Ellington still got stage fright and had anxietyattacks. I went on doing those frightening interviews. Then I realized that I was even looking forward to the interviews. What had happened to those anxieties?
Well, in truth, the anxieties were still there, but there were fewer of them. I had benefited from a process of overcoming them. If you put an individual in an anxious situation often enough, he will eventually learn that there isn’t anything to be worried about. This brings me to a conclusion: you’ll never get rid of anxiety by avoiding the things that caused it. The point is that the new, the different, is definitely scary (可怕的). But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning piles up, the world opens to you.
小题1:What does the phrase “turned down” mean in the second paragraph?

A．To say “No” to his roommate.	B．To say in a low voice.
C．To put away the invitation.	D．To take the invitation.

小题2:We can infer from the passage that the writer________.

A．finds it difficult to make decision

B．has found out what causes anxiety

C．was inspired (受启发的) by Duke Ellington’s stage fright

D．no longer feels anxious about new experiences

A．Hesitation leads to depression.

B．Anxiety can be a positive drive.

C．Avoiding anxiety reduces depression.

D．Depression is a signal that one is growing up.

A．Hope For Fashion	B．Have Your Own Judgement
C．How to follow the fashion	D．Two ideas about the fashion
