The word ¡°conservation¡± has a thrifty(½Ú¼ó)meaning. To conserve is to save and to protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such good condition that others may also share the enjoyment. Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials; most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures were ¡°limitless¡± and ¡°inexhaustible¡±. Most of the citizens of earlier generations knew little or nothing about the complicated and delicate system that runs all through nature, and which means that, as in a living body, an unhealthy condition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the others.

¡¡ Fifty years ago nature study was not part of the school work; scientific forestry was a new idea; wood was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands; soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied long-term climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word ¡°conservation¡± had nothing of the meaning that it has for us today.

For the interests of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about repairing the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should, therefore, be made a part of everyone¡¯s daily life. To know about the water table(ˮλ)in the ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic arithmetic formulas. We need to know why all watersheds(ÉÏÓÎÔ´Í·É­Áֵشø¼¯Ë®Çø)need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and rivers must be made to yield ( produce ) their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the importance of big nature trees, because living space for most of man¡¯s fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic volume(ÈÝ»ýÁ¿)above the earth. In brief, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.

14. What does the author imply(express indirectly)by saying ¡°living space for most of man¡¯s fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic volume(ÈÝ»ýÁ¿)above the earth.¡±?

(A) How to Fight Winter Blue

Winter¡¯s short days are more than cold. For many people, winter depression, the most common type of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), is as much a part of the season as hats and scarves.

Winter serious SAD sufferers may need medical treatment. Those feeling a little blue can help themselves by sticking to a healthy lifestyle.

Here are some tips:

Pace yourself. Don¡¯t expect to do everything you normally can. Set a realistic schedule. Don¡¯t listen to negative thinking, like blaming yourself or expecting to fail.

Get involved in activities that make you feel good or feel like you¡¯ve achieved something. For example, play table tennis or badminton.

If you are feeling depressed, you may feel like staying away from friends. Yet this is a time when friends¡¯ support can be helpful. Call them regularly. Remember, the more we put off calling or visiting a friend, the harder it is to rebuild a friendship.

Think clearly about what¡¯s wrong or right. Instead of giving in to vague feelings of sadness, look at your problems objectively. Break down problems into specific issues that you can work on.

Regular exercise helps to prevent and ease depression.

Eat well. Studies show that a healthy diet can help to maintain (keep) a healthy body and mind. The vitamins, minerals and micro-nutrients found in balanced diet may help our bodies to produce feel-good hormones(ºÉ¶ûÃÉ). Foods containing chemicals to help produce feel-good hormones include bananas, turkey, nuts and seeds. Eat at least five pieces of fruit and vegetables every day.

When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.

People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems blurry (unclear). Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near--sighted.

People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm¡¯s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.

Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (É¢¹â). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people¡¯s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (°×ÄÚÕÏ). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.

Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object¡¯s relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.

More than 26 million Americans took part in the Vietnam (Ô½ÄÏ)War. More than 58,000 of them¡¡¡¡21¡¡; over 300,000 were ¡¡22¡¡, and nearly 2300 were missing and thought dead.
