We all have to give gifts during the year. No matter what the occasion is, birthday, holiday or a special event, we make it a point to show we care by buying something nice for that special person. Well, the waste created by gift giving can really add up in the trash. Keep in mind that there are several ways that you can cut down on the remaining waste next time you buy that special someone a gift.
Make sure that your gift will be used. It’s almost impossible to make sure that the receiver will find your gift to their liking, but if you do your homework, you can be as sure as possible. Consider a gift wish list or just ask them, if you’re really not sure. It may cut down on the surprise, but if they give you a list of two or three things that they’d truly appreciate, then you can shop with the confidence that it won’t end up in the garbage five miuntes after it’s opened.
When you buy a gift, make sure that it’s as ecofriendly(有利于生态的) as possible. Buy hemp(麻布) clothing, or products made with natural dyes(染料).
Give the gift of donation. If you have no idea what to buy, then consider making a donation to a charity. Take into consideration their interests and passions and donate in their name.
Make it or bake it. Give something that can be eaten or can be used, like some homemade vinegar or cookies. Homemade candles are very popular and can be made to be more eco-friendly than store-bought ones.
Give a gift of your time. Offer babysitting services or a day of housecleanin g. Most people would appreciate a little lessening of stress or responsibility on any given day.
Wrap(包装) with care. The paper products you use for gift wrap should be recycled at the very least. Gift bags can be found made from recycled materials and can be reused over and over again for many gift giving occasions.

小学生10分钟应用题系列答案Different people use different languages. We Chinese speak Chinese, and, most of us are learning a foreign language. But there is another kind of language we need to know --- the language of the body.
All over the world, people “talk with their hand, with their heads and with their eyes.” When Japanese people meet, they bow. When Indians meet, they put their hands together. What do American and British do? Americans are more imformal(不拘小节的) than the British. They like to be friendly. They use first names, they ask questions and they talk easily about themselves. When they sit down, they like to relax in their chairs and make themselves comfortable. British people are more reserved(保守的). They take more time to make friends. They like to know you before they ask your name.
When British or American people meet someone for the first time, they shake hands. They do not usually shake hands with people they know well. Women sometimes kiss their women friends, and men kiss women friends (on one cheek only). When a man meets a man, he just smiles, and says, “Hello.” Men do not kiss each other, or hold hands. Even fathers and sons do not often kiss each other.

| True forgiveness is one of the most remarkable qualities a human can possess! In the fighting between two countries in the 1970s, a young man was walking from one village to the next when he was 1 by an armed guerrilla (游击队) fighter from the enemy country. The fighter 2 the young man down the hill where he was to be 3 . But a (n) 4 thing happened. The young man, who had 5 military (军事的) training, was able to disarm (解除武装) the fighter. Now, the table was 6 , and it was the fighter who was ordered down the hill. As they walked, 7 , the young man began to reflect on what was happening. Recalling the 8 of his mother, "Love your enemies; do good to those who 9 you." he found he could go no further. He 10 the gun into the bushes, told the fighter he was 11 to go and turned back 12 the hill. Minutes later, he heard footsteps 13 behind him as he walked. "Is this the end after all?" he 14 . Perhaps the fighter had got the gun and wanted to finish him off. But he continued on, 15 glancing back, until his enemy reached him, only to grab him in a hug and pour out 16 for sparing his life. Mercy often wears the face of 17 . And though it usually isn't an enemy in uniform that we are challenged to forgive, we hav 18 for mercy every day. Family members and friends, co-workers and neighbors and even strangers have 19 for our forgiveness. You know who they are. As Mahatma Gandhi said, "The 20 can never forgive.
