they can afford these things. But I don't agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (资源), we
are short of others, for example; fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to
use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and
where can we move? Think about it. 3. I think we should say no to the students who waste
things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent (阻止) waste from happening,
for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we
leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything
will be changed. 4. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.

Since 1850．the temperature of Earth's surface has increased about 0．6℃．Scientists predict it may warm much more by the end of this century．Who's turning up the heat? Well, it seems that we are! Some of this global warming may be natural．However，nearly all scientists now agree that most of it is due to peoples actions．Over the past 150 years, we've added huge amounts of certain gases, especially carbon dioxide(CO2)to the air．These gases can keep heat near Earth's surface，so more carbon dioxide means more heat is kept near Earth's surface．Global warming may change the weather in ways that lead to more severe storms，floods and droughts．
We add carbon dioxide to the air when we burn things, especially fossil fuels．Fossil fuels are energy sources formed from the remains of plants and animals that lived millions of years ago．Coal，oil，and natural gas are all fossil fuels．People in the United States and other countries started bunting large amounts of fossil fuels more than a century ago．The amount d fossil fuels being burned each year has been increasing worldwide．The more we burn，________．
What can we do to help? Nowadays to live a low-carbon life is quite popular in the world．Low-carbon means to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide．Saving energy and reusing are the key words．In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make our lives low-carbon．

These days, a student website in Foshan opened for kids to let their anger and stress out. Students can
write whatever they want online.
Lots of students wrote their stories. Some wrote something about their teachers. Others wrote about
their quarrels with their classmates. Many of them used ① words. Some even wrote down the real names
of their targets.
Parents don't like the idea. They said it could be against the law. Ms Cheng is the mother of a Junior 2
boy. She said she wouldn't let her son write on the Internet. "Saying bad things about others won't help
solve the problem. Children should talk to their parents," she said.
Ren Yi, 16, from Liaoning, said he didn't agree with using bad words either. But he said releasing stress
online wasn't a bad thing. "You don't have to use your real name. ② knows you. You can let out as much
as you want," he said.
Song Yinan, 14, from Shanxi thinks it has two sides. The good side is if others see your story, they may
give you help. But the bad side is that if kids don't control themselves, things could become worse.
