When he was 12, his parents . He was alone and didn’t get on well with others. People always laughed him. No one showed kindness (友善) to him. His only friend was a dog named Tige.

One day as he walked down the street, a young lady was walking in front of him. Suddenly one of her bags dropped from her arms. As she stopped , she dropped other bags. He came to help her.“Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!”She said kindly, smiling.

A special feeling came to him. These were kind words he had ever heard. He watched her she went far away, and he whistled（吹口哨）to his dog and went directly to the river nearby.

“Thank you, dear! You are a nice little boy!”he repeated the woman’s words. Then in a low he said to his dog,“You are a nice little dog!”Tige raised ears as if（似乎）it understood.

“Uh! Even a dog likes it!”he said,“Well, Tige, I won’t say unkind words to you any more.”Tige waved its tail happily.

The boy thought and thought. Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw but a dirty boy. He washed his face . Again he looked. He saw a clean nice boy. He was amazed (震惊). From then on, he had a new life.

After telling this, the businessman stopped for a while, and then he said,“Ladies and gentlemen, this is the very place where that kind woman planted in me the first seed (种子) of kindness. All of us should learn about kindness. a great power it has!” If you show kindness to others, you will be an able man.

Have you ever stayed in a hotel? Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable(一次性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers.

Many guests like the idea because they don’t have to bring their own. But if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring these things of your own. That’s because some hotels in Beijing have no longer provided guests with these disposables (一次性用品). Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It’s a waste of natural resources (资源) and is very bad for the environment.

In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of lunch bowls every year!

Plastic can take 100 to 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw away, the better environment we will have.

So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use them again and again. Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life:

Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones.

After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then use it over and over again.

Do not use paper cups.

At your school canteen (餐厅), use your own bowls and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.

根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。

1.Many guests like to use disposable things because they are very convenient (方便的).

2.Some Beijing hotels have no longer provided guests with free TV programmes.

3.Plastic breaks down easily.

4.After using a plastic bowl or a bag, we’d better throw it away, because it’s too dirty to use again.

5.We should use less plastic things and protect our environment.

It’s important to learn things about protecting environment. Here’s a 5Rs rule for us.

·Reduce

If you want to reduce waste, you should use things wisely. A large number of trees are being cut down to make paper. If everyone uses paper carelessly and then throws it away, soon we would not have any trees left. Some other things are also being wasted, and people don’t know what to do with waste in big cities, so it’s necessary to reduce waste.

·Reuse

You should always think of reusing the usable things before throwing them away. Give your clothes or things you don’t use to the poor. In a family, you may pass such clothes on to your younger brothers or sisters.

·Recycle

Bottles, cans and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so we save lots of time and money, for example, cola cans are sent to a factory, where they’re smashed flat（压平）and smelted (熔化), and the metal things are made into new cola cans.

·Recover

When you buy a box of apples, there may be a few rotten apples, you have two choice: one is to throw the whole apples away, or you should cut off the rotten parts and use the good parts. In this way, you are recovering the eatable parts of food.

·Repair

If one of the legs of your table is broken, you can repair it instead of throwing the table away. If you want to change for better ones, it’s better for you to sell the old ones or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair.

1.The “Reduce” rule mainly requires us _____.

A.to use things wisely B.to cut down many trees

C.to use paper carelessly D.to use more and more things

2.What’s the right order of recycling cola cans?

a.smash them flat

b.collect the used cans

c.smelt them

d.send them to a factory

A.a-b-c-d B.d-c-b-a C.b-d-a-c D.b-d-c-a

3.The “Reuse” rule mainly requires us _____.

A.to throw away the old clothes

B.to collect waste paper and soft drink cans

C.to use both sides of paper

D.to give the old but usable things to the poor

4.Which sentence is about the “Repair” rule?

A.When you leave a room, turn off the lights.

B.Take a cloth bag when you go shopping.

C.Don’t use plastic bags.

D.If your chair is broken, you can repair it.

5.The “Recover” rules mainly requires us ______

What will the future be like? It’s possible that we may often fly up into space! Out of all the Coolest inventions of the year, Times chose Spaceship One as the best.

Spaceship One is a 6-meter-long white spaceship. On June 21st, American pilot Mike Melvill flew it to space and back---about 100 kilometers up into the sky. ①Some might say it’s not a big deal. You know, people went to the moon years ago.

Well, Spaceship One is special because it is the first spaceship that wasn’t made by the government. A private（私人的）US company built and launched it. ②许多人想去太空旅行。But it’s too expensive. American millionaire(大富豪) Dennis Tito paid almost US＄20 million to become the first space tourist to visit the International Station in 2001. So private companies began to think of making their own spaceship to take other tourists up into space. The success of Spaceship One is a good start. In the next 10 to 15 years, ③if you pay ＄20,000 to ＄100,000 for it, you could fly high above the earth.
