Japan has a new craze:“the virtual pet”—Tamagotchi(电子鸡). The new object of consumer desire is the latest in high-tech-an electronic bird creature, the size of an egg that has been sold out everywhere and is now only available on the streets at more than 20 times its original price of 1 980 yen or $19.

You can feed it, stroke(抚摸) it, carry it in your pocket and even take it to the bathroom—all with the push of a button. But be aware that if you dont take care of your Tamagotchi (Japanese word for“lovely egg”) —your pet will die before your eyes and before its time.

The Tamagotchi starts life as a bird-like image on the screen of an egg-shaped key-ring device. It changes from a chick to a fully-grown adult in around 10 days. However, the owner must feed, clean and calm the digital creature by pushing the proper buttons to prevent it from dying from neglect. The owner may choose to feed the creature digital sweets and enjoy its sounds of delight by pressing buttons in response to the creatures movements.

Dear God,

    Now that I am no longer young,I have friends whose mothers have passed away.I have heard these sons and daughters say they never  2 1  appreciated their mothers until it was too  22  to tell them.

    I am  23  with the dear mother who is still allve.I appreciate her  24 each day.My mother does not  25  ,but I do.  26   I grow older and wiser.I realize what a(n)  27  person she is.How sad that I alil    28  to speak these words in her presence,29  they flow easily from my pen.

    How does a daughter begin to thank her mother for giving her llfe I  30’ For the love,patience and just plain hard work that go into  3 l  a child? For 32  a toddler,for understanding a moody teenager,for tolerating a college student who thinks she knows  33 ? For waiting for the day  34  a daughter realizes her mother really is?

How does a    35    wonlan thank for a mother for continuing to be a mother?For being ready with advice (when asked ) or  36   silent when it is most appreciated? For not saying:”I  37you so ,”when she could have spoked these words dozens of  38    ?For being essentially herself-loving ,thoughtful. Patient, and forgiving?

I don’t know how,dear God,except to bless her as richly as she  39  and to help me live up to the example she has set.I pray that 1 will look as good in the eyes of my  40  as my mother looks in mine.

     Adopting a vegan diet dramatically(显著地)reduces one person's impact on the environment.
     It would help deal with the problem of climate change if people ate less meat, according to a
government agency.
     A leaked email to a vegetarian campaign group from an Environment Agency official expresses
sympathy with the environmental benefit of a vegan diet, which bans dairy products and fish.
     The agency also says the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs(DEFRA)is
considering recommending eating less meat as one of the key environmental behavior changes needed
to save the planet.
      It says that this change would have to be introduced"gently"because of"the risk of alienating(使疏远)
the public".
      David Miliband, the Environment Secretary, has raised the issue that farm animals are blamed for
producing large amounts of powerful greenhouse gas, methane, and told farmers they need to do
something about it but the agency's response appears to go further than official advice.
     It has provoked(引起)an immediate response from the National Farmers Union, which said the
suggestion was"simplistic"and"a cause of concern".
     The agency's official was responding to an email from the vegan group Viva, which argues that it
is more efficient to use land to grow crops for direct consumption by humans rather than feeding them
to dairy cows or livestock(家畜)raised for meat.
      The campaign group entered a comment on the Environment Ageney's website saying:"Adopting
a vegan diet reduces one person's impact on the environment even more effective than giving up their
car or forgoing several plane trips a year!Why aren't you promoting this message as part of your
World Environment Day campaign?"
      An agency official replied:"While potential benefit of a vegan diet in terms of climate impact could
be very significant, encouraging the public to take a lifestyle decision as substantial as becoming a vegan
would be a request that few are likely to take up."
       You will be interested to hear that the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs is
working on a set of key environmental behavior changes to mitigate climate change.Consumption of
animal protein has been highlighted within that work.As a result the issue may start to figure in climate
change communications in the future.It will be a case of introducing gently as there is a risk of alienating
the public.
      "Future Environment Agency communications are unlikely to ever suggest adopting a fully vegan
lifestyle, but certainly encouraging people to examine their consumption of animal protein could be a
key message."
      Juliet Gellatley, director of Viva, said, "I think it is extraordinary that a government agency thinks
becoming a vegetarian or a vegan could have such a positive impact on the environment yet it is not
prepared to stand up and argue the case."
      A DEFRA spokesman said:"The government is not telling people to give up meat.It isn't the role
of government to enforce a dietary or lifestyle change on any individual."
