When today's moms and dads were kids，exploring nature meant creating an ant farm or making a mud pie．But with hot topics like environment，green and organic，today's little kids will need to become little environmentalists．It's time to get started in the backyard．
“Nature Discovery in My Backyard”is the first book in a series of children's books by The Little Environmentalists．LLC．The book is written for preschoolers and early readers． This picture book follows a little girl discovering what everyone sees，when they stop to look and smell the roses．A falling leaf，a beautiful flower or grass under feet become nature lessons．
“Children will smell，hear，feel and see their way through their own backyard nature discovery，”explains Rebecca Mattano，creator of “The Little Environmentalists”．“Each page gives a new and special look into nature with colorful pictures．It not only teaches but challenges children to find all that nature shows．”
To help parents and educators with their“green”lessons，the book gives tips on nature for every season of the year．Interesting educational facts on plants and animals are introduced in the back of the book．How many adults can name the animal family that the groundhog(土拨鼠)is in? You might be surprised to learn that it's the squirrel family．
The groundhog digs its home underground．They dig about 700 pounds of soil out of the ground when they are making their homes and can finish this in one day．They are in the squirrel family．
“My hope is for these books to build environmental knowledge，”adds Mattano．

Susan Dahl had spent four months homeless in Colorado and just been on a painful 10-hour bus trip through ice and snow．Hungry and broke，she was anxious to get back to family in Minnesota．That's when a tall man in a red coat and red hat sat next to her at the downtown bus station，talked to her quietly and then gave her $100 on that December afternoon．The man was doing the work of Larry Stewart，Kansas City's original Secret Santa who wandered city streets handing out $100 bills to those who looked like they needed money．Stewart died of cancer at the age 58 earlier this year，but his spirit lives on．“Here's a $100 bill … and this is in memory of Larry Stewart，”said Dahl,56．
During about a quarter century， Stewart quietly gave out more than $1.3 million to people in streets，restaurants，bus stations，shelters and markets，saying it was his way of giving back at Christmas for all the wealth and generosity(慷慨)he had received in his lifetime．For years，Stewart did not want his name known or want thanks，but last December he acknowledged who he was and used his last few months while battling cancer to press his message of kindness toward others．He even trained some friends in the ways of Secret Santa．This Christmas，a friend who told Stewart in the hospital that he would carry on for him is out on the streets，handing out $100 bills，each one stamped with“Larry Steward，Secret Santa”Between Kansas City and several other cities this Christmas，the new Secret Santa will give away $75,000 of his own money，mostly in $100 bills．
“I didn't want to be a Secret Santa，”said the man，a businessman who lives in the Kansas City area．“I wanted to give Larry money．But last year he said I had to hand it out myself．So I did and got hooked．Anyone can be Secret Santa，”he says．“You don't have to give away $100．You can give away kindness．Help someone．”

In most situations ，light helps us see. But when it comes to looking at the night sky, light is actually a kind of pollution.
It stops us from seeing some of life’s most beautiful sights：stars，planets, and even galaxies(星系).”When I was a little boy , I loved the night sky,” recalls Robert Gent of the International Dark-Sky Association, an organization working to reduce light pollution.
“I remember looking up and the sky was full of stars ,and I asked , ‘How many are there? How far away are they? Can we visit them? ’ I became an astronomer because I was amazed by their beauty, ”he says .” Now in most big cities kids can’t see the stars like I did.”
Normally ，about2,500 stars can be seen by the human eyes without using any special equipment. But because of light pollution，today you actually see just 200 to 300 from suburbs, and fewer than 12 from cities.
Fortunately, there is a solution that is inexpensive and has benefits right away ， says Gent. “If we shine lights down at the ground instead of up into the sky ， and use lower brightness levels , we can save enormous amounts of energy and enjoy the beauty of the night skies.”
Many cities and towns have passed laws limiting lights at night ，making sure of enough shine for safety without creating a lot of light pollution.
Light pollution does harm to more than our view of the heavens. Research shows that lots of nighttime light can harm wildlife.
Migrating birds(候鸟)sometimes fly over cities and become confused by the brightness, flying in circles until they drop from extreme tiredness. Sea turtles need dark beaches for nesting and won’t nest near bright lights. Too much light at night may even affect human health, scientists are still learning more.
For all these reasons ，researchers are working on ways to use lights only when and where they are truly needed.
49．Today, people can't see the stars like before exactly they can see ______stars now.
A．about 2,500 B．just 200 C．less than 300 D．fewer than 12
50．We can infer from the passage that ________
A．light pollution has few bad effects on wildlife
B．too much lights will destroy sea turtle’s nests
C．kids now have less imagination towards the skies than their fathers.
D．shining the lights up into skies is a good way to solve the light pollution.
51．Which of the following statements is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A．Robert Gent showed great interest in the skies full of stars , which made him become an astronomer.
B．With more harm found in the future , there is still a long way fight against light pollution.
C．The International Dark-Sky Association is aimed at reducing light pollution.
D．Laws limiting lights at night have passed and saved light pollution successfully.

Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr Kim has a new explanation . He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labour through your work , you may say that you’re “hot.” That’s true . The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak(高峰). For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For other it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so , but it leads to such familiar words as :”Get up .John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarreling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help .Dr Kim believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway . Counteract(对抗)your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to . If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day , rise before your usual hour . This won’t change your cycle , but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy . Get up with a leisurely yawn(哈欠)and your body stretching. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do usual work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or attention for your shaper hours.
56．If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably _______
A．he is a lazy person B．he refuses to follow his own energy cycle
C．he is not sure when his energy is low D．he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening
57．Which of the follow may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?
A．Unknowing of energy cycle.
B．Understanding the energy cycle.
C．A change in a family member’s energy cycle.
D．Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.
58．If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should ______
A．change his energy cycle B．overcome his laziness
C．get up earlier than usual D．go to bed earlier
59．You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ___________
A．enable you to fix your attention on your work
B．help you to control your temper early in the day
C．keep your energy cycle under control all day
D．help to keep your energy for the day’s word
60．Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A．getting off to work with a minimum effort helps people save their energy.
B．Dr Kim explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.
C．Habit can help people adapt to their own energy cycles.
D．Children, like the adults , have energy cycles, too.
