17．Starting a fire with ice wasn't a joke．You can make it if you do it right and have the patience．How to start a fire with ice is important if you are caught in the wilderness （野外） during the winter months when there is snow and ice covering the ground and trees．
    The first thing you need do is to find a place on the side of a hill or near a tree that is dry and protected from the wind．Although a tree is easier to find，you run the risk of catching the tree on fire．Next，you will need to collect some small dry pieces of bark（树皮） or bushes for kindling （点火物） and place them together on your dry protected area，and then find a good supply of larger dry tree branches for your fuel（燃料） once you get the fire started．
    Now you have to find an ice sickle （镰刀） only about a foot long，and while the sun is still up，hold the ice sickle in the air where it catches the sun on the larger end and concentrate the sun light coming out of the smaller end toward your kindling．If you have a hard time getting your kindling to ignitebecause it's too large，you can always gather and use any dry grass or paper you can find to help get your fire going easier．While you are trying to light your kindling，remember to keep your fire material dry without any water．
    You don't worry about it．If you melt（融化） your ice sickle trying to start the fire，you can always just get another one．With practice and patience anyone can get the skills of fire from ice．

16．Whether you're taking a short business flight or a dream vacation around the world，here are some smart and simple green travel tips to make any trip a little easier．
    1．Power Down
    If your green travels leave behind an empty house，power down as many appliances （电器） as possible．Don't forget to unplug （拔开） electronics like your TV，computer and others that use power even when they're turned off．
    2．Go Car-Free
    On your way to the airport or to your hotel，and all around your traveling city，consider using trains or buses．By stepping out of a car and into the real world，you'll not only save more energy，but also meet more people，see more sights and have more fun．
    3．Go Paperless
    Airlines have almost all gone ticketless； not only does this green travel trip reduce paper waste，it also makes check-in faster and easier．Some hotels，too，allow guests to check out using their hotel's in-house TV programming．
    4．Green Travels and Eco-Hotels
    Staying in a wild eco-hotel isn't a usual choice in most cities．But if you were paying the electric bill，you'll find lots of ways to green your travels．Turning down the air-conditioner when you're there-turning off when you're not-makes a big difference．
    5．Buy Local
    Shopping？Try to buy items that are small and light，and ask if they're locally made．With a little effort，you might even be able to find something that supports local charities （慈善机构） or schools．

15．November is Alzheimer's（老年痴呆症）Awareness Month in the United States．Alzheimer's is a frightening disease，not only for those who suffer from memory loss，but also for their loved ones．But researchers in California say a new way of treating the disease is showing promise for reversing some of that memory loss．The new treatment combines western medicine with eastern philosophy-ideas rooted in Asian religions．
Dr．Dale Bredesen is with the Easton Center for Alzheimer's Disease Research at UCLA．He says nine of ten patients suffering from Alzheimer's noted improvements in their memory．He says the traditional use of only one treatment just did not work with many patients．The new therapy（疗法）treats the whole patient，not just parts of the patient．"They have either taken a single drug to try with Alzheimer's，which has been a failure repeatedly，or they have tried without any background，simply saying，‘Okay，try exercise，try changing your diet，'these sorts of things，and there has not been any way to understand how these things contribute to the disease．"
According to Dr．Bredesen，there is a constant balance of the brain remembering and forgetting．Many things，including a person's lifestyle，can create an imbalance in brain activity，which can lead to memory loss．Dr．Bredesen creates an individualized treatment for each patient．He does this by taking images of their brain，testing their blood and asking many questions about their daily life．During the treatments，subjects were told to eat more fish，avoid carbohydrates and processed foods，and take vitamin B12，D3and fish oil．They also practiced yoga（瑜伽），sat quietly for 20minutes twice each day and slept more．
Dr．Bredesen describes this new therapy as combining western understanding of the human body with the eastern method of looking at the whole patient．For the nine patients whose memory improved，it usually happened within three to six months．The 10th patient was too far along in the disease for any improvement to be observed．
The UCLA center is now working with 30additional patients as it moves to expand its research．The researchers say they followed some patients up to two and a half years and the memory improvements remained．

A．the doctors ask the patients to believe in Asian religions
B．the doctors pay more attention to the patient's lifestyle
C．the patients are forbidden from eating meat or bread
D．the patients have to sit quietly and sleep during the day

14．Scientists have found we are more likely to die on our birthday than any other day．Researchers who studied more than two million people over 40years found a rise in deaths from heart attacks，strokes（中风），falls and suicides（自杀）and others on that day．
On average，people over the age of 60were 14per cent more likely to die on their birthdays．Heart attacks rose 18.6per cent on birthdays and were higher for men and women while strokes were up 21.5per cent-mostly in women．
Dr Vladeta Ajdacic of the University of Zurich said："Birthdays end dangerously more frequently than might be expected．"He added that risk of birthday death rose as people got older．
Canadian data also showed that strokes were more likely on birthdays，especially among patients with high blood pressure．
There was a 34.9per cent rise in suicides，28.5per cent rise in accidental deaths not related to cars，and a 44per cent rise in deaths from falls on birthdays．
Psychologist Professor Richard Wiseman，from the University of Hertfordshire，said，"It seems to be a reliable finding．There are two cases-one is the case that suggests you eat too much and your getting over excited and that causes you to die．"He said continuously，"The other is a placebo effect（安慰剂效应）．You are knife-edged on death．And you kept yourself going until your birthday．You think‘That's it．I've had enough．I'm out of here．'"
Dr Lewis Halsey，of the University of Roehampton，said，"One interesting finding is that more suicides happen on birthdays，though only in men．Perhaps men are more likely to make a statement about their unhappiness when they think people will be taking more notice of them．"

A．Be happy on your birthday．
B．Be ready to care for others．

13．Have you ever wanted to be healthier？Get a pet!That is what the experts are saying．There are many advantages to owning a pet，no matter whether it is a cat，dog，or horse．
Some new parents are often in a rush to get rid of their pets when a baby is expected．Yet，studies have shown that having a pet at home actually reduces a child's likelihood of developing certain kinds of diseases．In one study，a researcher studied 300new-born babies and tested them again a year later．He found that if they had a dog at home the children had up to 33% fewer allergies （过敏症）．In addition，the children had stronger immune systems （免疫系统） when compared to the babies of homes with no pets．
In another study，researchers tested nearly 4，500people．They found that cat owners who spent time stroking （抚摸） their cats suffered 40% fewer heart attacks than those who did not own a cat．Some other studies also found that pet owners suffered less serious from depression （沮丧） than non-pet owners．
Horses have long been used in treatments for disabled people，both physically and mentally．Not only does the movement of the horse help people with physical problems，but the calming influence of the animals has a positive effect on them，too．Amazing changes have been noted in disabled people who are lucky enough to receive these treatments．
From cats to horses，having a pet can really have positive effects on our health．

I like travelling and my dream of paying a visit for Beijing，the capital city of our country，come true during the National Day holidays this year．On October 1st，I went to Tian'anmen Square with my parents，there we watched the flag-raising ceremony．As I watched the flag rising slowly，I sang a national anthem，feel extremely excited．Then we went to some other famous tourist attraction，like the Great Wall．Standing on the Great Wall，I felt very proudly．I thought the old saying that"He who do not reach the Great Wall is not a true man．"Although I was tired，but I really had a good time．
