9．All too often，a choice that seems sustainable（可持续的）turns out on closer examination to be problematic．Probably the best example is the rush to produce ethanol（乙醇） for fuel from corn．Corn is a renewable resource-you can harvest it and grow more，almost limitlessly．So replacing gas with corn ethanol seems like a great idea．
One might get a bit more energy out of the ethanol than that used to make it，which could still make ethanol more sustainable than gas generally，but that's not the end of the problem．Using corn to make ethanol means less corn is left to feed animals and people，which drives up the cost of food．That result leads to turning the fallow land-including，in some cases，rain forest in places such as Brazil-into farmland，which in turn gives off lots of carbon dioxide （CO） into the air．Finally，over many years，the energy benefit from burning ethanol would make up for the forest loss．But by then，climate change would have progressed so far that it might not help．
You cannot really declare any practice"sustainable"until you have done a complete life-cycle analysis of its environmental（环境的） costs．Even then，technology and public keep developing，and that development can lead to unforeseen and undesired results．The admirable goal of living       sustainably requires plenty of thought on an ongoing basis．

A．The growing demand for energy to make ethanol

8．Cities alarmed by deaths and injuries of pedestrians are taking efforts to make crosswalks safer for people on foot，especially seniors and children who need more time to cross streets．
A pedestrian is killed in a traffic accident in the USA every 110minutes； one is injured every nine minutes，according to official data．Crosswalks can be especially dangerous for the elderly．Among people 70and older，36% of pedestrian deaths in 2006occurred in crosswalks，compared with 21% of those younger than 70，according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety．
The Federal Highway Administration（FHWA） advise that next year states increase by nearly 15% the amount of time traffic lights provide for pedestrians to cross the street after the flashing orange hand appears．
FHWA spokesman Doug Hecox says reasons for the change include an aging population that needs more time to cross，health-conscious Americans walking more，children encouraged to walk to prevent getting overweight and high gas prices pushing people to walk instead of drive．
Pedestrian deaths went down by 12% from 5，449in 1996to 4，784in 2006，Bur among those in 2006，471were killed in crosswalks，down slightly from 488ten years earlier，the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration（NHTSA） says．

B．Providing more crosswalks
C．Giving pedestrians more time to cross streets．
D．Drivers don't give way
56．The report from NHTSA suggests thatD
A．fewer people were injured in crosswalks
B．crosswalk safety has been greatly improved
C．much has been done to reduce traffic accidents
D．pedestrian deaths in crosswalks remain a serious problem．

Green Action in Our Class
April 12 is memorable because our class had a meaningful experience on that day．In the morning，we bicycled to the suburbs to plant trees，talking and laughing all the way．Upon arrival，we began to work immediately．Some were digging holes．Some were carrying and planting young trees．Others were watering them．After getting the work done，we put up a board reminding people to protect the trees．Before leaving we took some photos to record our green action．Seeing the lines of trees，we all had a sense of achievement．We feel it's our duty to protect and beautify our environment．．

4．Camping wild is a wonderful way to experience the natural world and，at its best，it makes little environmental influence．But with increasing numbers of people wanting to escape into the wilderness，it is becoming more and more important to camp unobtrusively（不引人注目地）and leave no mark．
Wild camping is not permitted in many places，particularly in crowded lowland Britain．Wherever you are，find out about organizations responsible for managing wild spaces，and contact them to find out their policy on camping and shelter building．For example，it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of Scotland，but in England you must ask the landowner's permission，except in national parks．
Camping is about having relaxation，sleeping outdoors，experiencing bad weather，and making do without modern conveniences．A busy，fully-equipped campsite（野营地）seems to go against this，so seek out smaller，more remote places with easy access to open spaces and perhaps beaches．Better still，find a campsite with no road access：walking in makes a real adventure．
Finding the right spot to camp is the first step to guaranteeing a good night's sleep．Choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the environment．Try to use an area where people have obviously camped before rather than creating a new spot．When camping in woodland，avoid standing dead trees，which may fall on a windy night．Avoid animal runs and caves，and possible homes of biting insects．Make sure you have most protection on the windward side．If you make a fire，do so downwind of your shelter．Always consider what influence you might have on the natural world．Avoid damaging plants．A good campsite is found，not made-changing it should be unnecessary．
