　　Fifteen years after the fall of the Berlin wall, a private museum is rebuilding a 200-metre section of it．The site, close to Checkpoint Charlie, the famous Cold War border crossing, is meant to satisfy tourists．The new copy consists of large concrete(混凝土)pieces taken from the actual wall．But it must follow a slightly different course because of new buildings on the site of the original wall．

　　Alexandra Hildebrandt, the manager of the Checkpoint Charlie museum, said it would remind people of the history when East and West Berlin were separated by the wall．Some young people tend to forget it．

　　"It's a very strange feeling," Wolfgang Mtiller,53, a worker who used to live in East Berlin, said as he carefully smoothed cement(水泥)on to the blocks, "I never thought I would be building the Berlin Wall again．"

Vauban We know cars are terrible polluters, but would you give yours up? Vauban, a community in southwestern Germany, did just that, and its 5,000 citizens are doing fine. Most streets are free of vehicles, and there are generous green spaces and good public-transport links, including fast buses and bicycle paths. When people must drive, they can turn to car-sharing clubs. “All the citizens had the chance to plan their own city,” says Andreas Delleke, an energy expert, “and it's just how we wanted it to be.”	Denmark During the period of gas shortage in the early 70s, Denmark decided to become self-sufficient ( 自足). So they began a few projects making smart investments along the way. On the island of Samsoe, local families, fishermen and farmers bought wind turbines (涡轮机) to produce their own energy. Within seven years these turbines were completely paid for. And can you believe just one of wind turbines produces enough electricity for 600 households?
C	D
Trey Parker and Matt Stone Trey Parker and Matt Stone, creators of South Park, have built a sustainable castle with outer siding and inner flooring of recycled wood, recycled carpeting, high-efficiency boiler systems. “I think more and more today, people are willing to make a statement about the Earth and how they want to protect it,” Michael Rath, home designer and builder says. "For high-end homes in this valley, this is entirely consistent with what they cost."	P-NUT Who doesn't love the name P-NUT—short for Personal-Neo Urban Transport? It's Honda's latest attempt to create a tiny footprint for a new urban vehicle. This little P-NUT is unique. With a central driving position, the car is designed to move in tight settings. The 11-foot micro car will seat three with two rear-seat passengers behind the driver. “The P-NUT concept explores the packaging and design potential for a vehicle designed for the city lifestyle,” said Dave Marek, a Honda design Spokesman.
E	F
Israel Company Is it possible that annoying rush hour traffic could become a source of renewable energy? Israel's Technion Institute of Technology claims that if we placed special generators ( 发电机 ) under roads, railways, and runways—we could harvest enough energy to mass-produce electricity. A trial process has been used on a smaller scale, in dance clubs for instance, where the pounding feet of dancers light up the floor. "We can produce electricity anywhere there is a busy road using energy that normally goes to waste," said Uri Amit, chairman of Israel's Technion Institute of Technology.	Coffee Coffee. Some of us can't start our day without it, and we don't mind waiting 10 minutes in line for it. Here is the most effective tip to make you a superstar in environment protection. Get a coffee machine for your home or office, or persuade your company into buying one. (Tell them it will improve productivity. ) Skip the coffee line on the way to work and make something that is better-tasting and much better for your wallet. Plus, you won't need those plastic cups or carrying cases that just get thrown away. Better yet, use your favorite travel mug.

71 It might understand more than you think．

A dog named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany． 72 Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee．

In one experiment，the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects． 73 In four tests，Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right．As the dog couldn’t see anyone to get clues，the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words．

In another experiment，the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew． 74

The correct object was chosen in seven out of 10 tests．suggesting that the dog had worked out the answer by process of removing．A month later，Rico remembered half of the new names，which is even more impressive．

75 Even if they do，they can’t talk back．Still，it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your dog

every now and then You might just get a big，wet kiss in return!

A．The owner then told Rico to fetch the object，using a word the dog had never heard before

B．Do dogs more understand us than some friends?

C．It’s hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say．

D．Be careful what you say around your dog．

E．The dog also appears to be able to learn new words

F．Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back．

G．Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog．
