It s easy to living green.Focus on reducing your energy and water consumption and your waste generation,you'11be on your way to reducing your footprints on the planet,"says Malten.
(61)B
It s best to walk,bicycle,or use mass transit for your daily commuting,but for those who must use their own vehicles,improving the efficiency of your car's fuel mileage(耗油量) is as easy as keeping your tires properly inflated and changing your oil and air filters if necessary.
(62)F
Using cold water rather than hot in the washer saves electricity and works just as well as hot water with most clothes.Line drying is not only more environmentally friendly,but it also will keep clothes from shrinking and fading.
(63)A
If you re headed to a restaurant that you know serves king-sized portions,bring a small piece of Tupperware along to take the leftovers home.So that you can keep one fewer styrofoma (泡沫塑料) container from the landfill pile.If you are going to a supermarket,bring your own canvas tote bags( 帆布手提袋)"Although many supermarket recycle used plastic bags,the process still requires much energy to be used to transport and process the materials,says Malten.
(64)D
Food grown or produced halfway around the world didn't just appear in the supermarket-it was shipped by plane,boat,truck or rail,and no matter what kind of transportation it took,greenhouse gasses were emitted along the way.Pick the apple grown in your state instead of the banana grown in another country.
(65)C
It seems simple,but just.one tree can consume tons of carbon over its lifetime.If planted properly,it will also provide shade on a sunny day,perhaps reducing the use of energy for air-conditioning in buildings and homes:"While reducing energy will cut our carbon emissions,it is also important to restore more natural‘sinks'that capture carbon,"Malten says,"Planting trees is an easy place to start.

7.I have a friend Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch in San Ysidro.He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events to raise money for youth at risk programs.
The last time I was there he introduced me by saying,"I want to tell you why I let Jack use my house.It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant(游荡的) horse trainer who would go from stable to stable,race track to race track,farm to farm and ranch to ranch,training horses.As a result,the boy's high school career was continually interrupted.When he was a senior,he was asked to write a paper about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up."
"That night he wrote a seven-page paper describing his goal of owning a horse ranch someday.He wrote about his dream in great detail and he even drew a diagram of a 200-acre ranch,showing the location of all the buildings,the stables and the track.Then he drew a detailed floor plan for a 4,000-square-foot house that would sit on a 200-acre dream ranch."
"He put a great deal of his heart into the project and the next day he handed it in to the teacher.Two days later he received his paper back.On the front was a large red F with a note that read,‘See me after class.'"
"The boy with the dream went to see the teacher after class and asked,‘Why did I receive an F?'"
"The teacher said,‘This is an unrealistic dream for a young boy like you.You have no money.You come from an itinerant family.You have no resources.Owning a horse ranch requires a lot of money.You have to buy the land.You have to pay for the original breeding stock and later you'll have to pay large stud(马群)fees.There's no way you could ever do it.'Then the teacher added,‘If you rewrite this paper with a more realistic goal,I will reconsider your grade.'"
"The boy went home and thought about it long and hard.He asked his father what he should do.His father said,‘Look,son,you have to make up your own mind on this.However,I think it is a very important decision for you.'"
"Finally,after sitting with it for a week,the boy turned in the same paper,making no changes at all.He stated,‘You can keep the F and I'll keep my dream.'"
Monty then turned to the assembled group and said,"I tell you this story because you are sitting in my 4,000-square-foot house in the middle of my 200-acre horse ranch.I still have that school paper framed over the fireplace."He added,"The best part of the story is that two summers ago that same schoolteacher brought 30 kids to camp out on my ranch for a week.When the teacher was leaving,he said,‘Look,Monty,I can tell you this now.When I was your teacher,I was something of a dream stealer.During those years I stole a lot of kids'dreams. Fortunately you had enough gumption not to give up on yours.'"
Don't let anyone steal your dreams.Follow your heart,no matter what.

4.Dad,
I'm writing to you as I feel it's been quite a while since we last spoke (two years to be exact,you hung up on me).So how is Germany?How old are your other children now?What have you been up to this year?I finished my A-levels this summer.But enough small talk.On our European road trip in the summer,the journey took us close to your house and I asked Mum and my stepdad if we could pay a visit so that I could see you.Outside your house,I couldn't bring myself to get out of the car and knock on the door.
I've tried so many different forms of communication-email,the phone and I also suggested Skype.Yet I still can't get through to you.
My mum,stepdad and I sat around the table trying to work out why I had felt unable to knock on your door that day.At last it came to me.I think,perhaps subconsciously,I was saving myself the grief of your response.
Why can't your parental obligations stretch to all three of your children,not just your two recent ones?In our previous conversations,which ended suddenly,as your older son needed to be put to bed,I'd ask you how he was doing at school,and you'd talk about the weather.No one listening would be able to tell there was any difference between our relationship and one you might have with a neighbour.
Forget your excuses-that the flight to visit me is expensive and that you need to look after your other children (I hope you can see the irony(讽刺) in that).While you watch their school plays,don't you consider that I would have liked you to be there at mine?
Perhaps the reason I didn't knock on your door was that I just don't care anymore.I'm exhausted trying to make this work.Maybe a part of me wasn't actually bothered whether I saw you or not that day-you've already lost so much meaning in my life; you are someone who just sends me a birthday card.
This isn't me being bitter,although I was initially.It's just a way of telling you how I really feel.
