There are many things we can do in our daily life to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas sent out. Probably the most important is to share what you have learned with your family and friends.

   ★ Use the family car less. Walk or cycle whenever possible. Take a bus. Try ride sharing.

   ★ Use less energy in the house by turning down the heat when you are away or sleeping and turning off lights and electrical equipment you aren't using.

   ★ If your family needs a car, make sure to buy a fuel-efficient one.  An average car sends out nearly 60 tons of carbon dioxide during its lifetime, compared to between 22 and 30 tons from a fuel-efficient car.

   ★ Encourage your family to use the car more efficiently (有效地): for example, check the air in the tires. Underinflated tires can increase fuel use by 8%. Turn the car off instead of letting it run when it is stopped. Idling uses more gas and sets free carbon dioxide into the air,

   ★ Reuse, recycle and compost (把…合成肥料 ) your waste. It takes much less energy to reuse or recycle a product than to make a new one. Correctly composting your food and yard waste removes the methane (沼气) that they would cause at the landfill site. Buying less is al- ways the best.

★ Plant trees. Trees take in carbon dioxide, reduce pollution, provide shade, and look great.

1. Which of the following does the writer suggest that we should not do?

  A. Share cars with other people if possible.  B. Make sure our car tires are well inflated.

  C. Compost our home waste at the landfill site. D. Buy less products even if we can afford.

2. A fuel-efficient car gives of ?_____ tons of carbon dioxide during its lifetime less than an average car.

A. 22-30     B. 30-38     C. 60     D. 8-30

3. The purpose of this text is to call on people ________

  A. to control greenhouse gas     B. to make full use of energy

  C. to plant more trees        D. to buy fuel-efficient cars

        Getting to Now: How to Beat the Procrastination Habit

  I am a procrastinator(拖拉者). I always have been. I've tried all sorts of things to beat the habit. Here are some techniques I've been using to try to force myself to get to now:

  Set aside blocks of time to do things. When I was talking with my wellness coach earlier this year, she asked me why I didn't exercise more often. “  ,” I said. “Something always comes up.” She wasn’t impressed. “J.D.,” she said, “You have to make time. Make an appointment with yourself to run or to go for a bike ride.” The same principle applies to other things you might procrastinate.

    . Often I’ll be sitting on the back porch reading a book, and it will occur to me that some chore needs to be done — mending the fence, for example. “  ,” I tell myself. Wrong! What usually happens is that I forget to write it down, and even if I do, I just look at the list and procrastinate for weeks on end. The best move is to actually do the chore when I think of it. (Assuming, of course, that I have the time at that moment,which I usually do.)

  Use a timer to bring you back to reality. Part of the reason I procrastinate is that I'm a daydreamer.    . One way to keep on track is to use a timer. I use the Ultrak Jumbo Countdown Timer, but not as often as I should. I set it for 48 minutes. When it goes off,    : Am I doing what I'm supposed to be doing?

  Do not multitask. I often start many things at once, but I never actually do any of them. In order for me to get something done, I need to focus my attention on it. Trying to do several things at once is a sure way to be sure they'll all be unfinished tomorrow.

  A. I’m always lost in thought

  B. it brings me back to reality

  C. If it comes to mind, then do it

  D. I don’t have the time

  E. it serves as an instant reality check

  F. Do it right away if you are asked to do something

  G. I need to write that down so I can remember it
