Vauban
   We know cars are terrible polluters,but would you give yours up?Vauban,a community in southwestem 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?

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.

  Is it possible that annoying rash 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.

18.Every year in the first week of my English class,some students inform me that writing is too hard.They never write,unless assignments require it.(36)CHow awful it is to be able to speak in a language but not to write in it-especially English,with its rich vocabulary.(37)FWhen I meet students who think they can't write,I know,as a teacher my mission is to show them the rest of the rooms.(38)AAlso,I need to provide the opportunity in any writing activity to enhance the moral and emotional development of my students.One great way to do this is by having students write in a journal in class every day.
(39)B Writing needs to be done daily,just like exercise; just as muscles grow stronger with exercise,writing skills improve quickly with writing practice daily.I often see a rise in student confidence and performance after only a few weeks of journal writing.
(40)GWhen my students practice journal writing,they are practicing for their future academic,political,and emotional lives.They build skills so that some say they might write a great novel,or the perfect love letter etc.Every day that they write in their journals puts them a step daily to fluency,eloquence(雄辩),and command of the language.

C.They find the writing process painful and difficult
D.Only if you have excellent writing skill can you succeed
E.A teacher's task is to help the students build confidence in themselves.
F.Being able to speak but not write is like living in a big house and never leaving one small room.
G.Expressing oneself in writing is one of the most important skills I teach to strengthen the whole students.
3.Most people make a donation if they want to help those in need.And they hope that if they join demonstrations or hand out leaflets,they'll make others aware of the terrible conditions some people face.But 47-year-old British comedian,Eddie Izzard,did something completely different.He decided to raise money by running 1,100 miles through England,Wales,Northern Ireland and Scotland.And he managed to raise more than£200,000!
    How long did it take him to run 1,100 miles?Believe it or not,it took him just 51 days.For six days out of every seven he ran at least 26 miles.In other words,he ran 43 marathons in less than two months,before he finished in great style and pouring rain in London's Trafalgar Square!
    When asked how he felt,he told the BBC that he was planning to"sleep for a week".He thanked the people who had waited for him in Trafalgar Square despite the rain.They had all come to support him and to applaud his incredible achievement.
    And the comedian admitted that his journey was pretty painful.He had to have his feet bandaged every day but still lost several of his toenails,and he had blisters (水泡)all over his feet.He wouldn't have been able to do what he did if he hadn't taken ice baths for his legs at the end of each day.These baths helped to"stop your legs inflating to twice the size of an elephant",as Eddie commented.
    People who have no idea about running and experts alike are impressed with what he has achieved.Andy Dixon,editor of Runner's World,a magazine for long-distance runners,says,"Covering 26 miles in a day at whatever speed for 43 runs,it's demanding.A five-hour marathon is fairly decent pace.It's a massive achievement.
So,how did he do it?Well,when he decided to run,he wasn't even particularly fit.He ran his marathons slowly at first.Ten hours a day to begin with and,as he got fitter,he got faster.In the end he was finishing in just over five hours.But fitness alone was not enough.What was more important was the fact that he wanted to make a difference to other people's lives.
    What Eddie Izzard did was so special that the documentary of his run has been made into an inspiring film:Believe!"You've got to believe you can be something else,"Eddie says in the film."I've done that a few times.That's why I keep going."
