  Life isn't always easy at Michala R.'s house.Her little brother, Evan, has autism, a disorder that makes it difficult for him to communicate and control himself.In the past, Evan either wouldn't react when someone spoke his name, or he would get angry.

  But things have changed since eight-year-old Evan started getting a new kind of medical treatment.“Evan doesn't behave unreasonably these days,”says Michala, age 12.“Now, if I call his name, he looks at me.He has learned to dress himself, and unlike before, he laughs and plays.”

  Doctors wanted to find out whether the treatment that had worked so well for Evan could help other kids, too.When Michala heard her parents saying that the hospital needed $200,000 for autism research, she wanted to help.She started making bracelets(手镯)with colorful beads(珠子).She sold them for $3 each.

  Michala's relatives helped to sell her bracelets.But soon, word of the project spread, and suddenly it seemed as if everyone wanted to buy bracelets.So Michala started handing out sets of supplies so that others could help.Bracelet sales brought in lots of money, and Michala got some big cash donations, too.In just six months, she reached her goal of raising $200,000!The money made it possible for doctors to learn more about the treatment.

I am so worried about global warming. We need stop cutting down all of the trees so that they can absorb the carbon dioxide. I think the Kyoto Protocol (京都议定书) to stop pollution is a great idea ,and I hope our country will decide to follow it, too.

                                                             — Eli S.,10,Texa

People should do all they can to help stop pollution, even if it is something as little as recycling your soda can. Every little thing helps. Maybe schools can put recycling bins in classrooms. Students can bring in all of their cans and bottles and see how many the school can collect.

                                                  — Lindsey A.,11, Massachusett

The United States should take action to help stop pollution. Since we are one of the richest countries, we should at least spend a little money to help.

                                                  — Aaron z,11,Massachusett

It is not good that the United States is not following the Kyoto Protocol. The U.S. is one of the most pollution emitting (污染物排放)countries in the world. Even if the rest of the world agrees to follow those rules, without the U. S. and its big businesses agreeing, global warming will still be a big problem.

                                                         —Augustine S.,11,Ohio

The world needs to learn more about global warming problems. If we do not do something soon then some of Earth’s coolest animals will become extinct. People should use solar power instead of things that pollute the atmosphere!

                                                    — Jillian J.,10,Pennsylvania

Global warming is very dangerous, and it must be prevented. Even if people think that it cannot be stopped ,we should  at least try. Stopping global warming is more important than keeping our businesses going. What about the penguins(企鹅)and the polar bears? We can’t just let them become extinct.

                                                        —Samantha R.,11,Illinois
