23、Good morning，boys and girls．Today I'll talk about going online．

We know that there are too many net bars around us．The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable．Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer and can get more information from the Internet．We can learn English．We can read some good newspapers and magazines．It can make us clever in playing computer games．We can send e-mails to our friends quickly．We can chat freely online with our friends．It can help us to get in touch with people from all over the world．

But every coin has two sides．Net bars also bring us a lot of trouble．For example，some students spend too much time in playing compute games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night．Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online．They write too many letters to each other．It takes them too much time to chat online，so they do worse and worse in their lessons and they don't study well any more．I think we mustn't get online when it is time for us to study．We can do it in summer or winter holidays or at the weekend．

At the same time，if we have lots of free time，we can do some out-of-class activities at school．We usually have activities from 4：50 to 5：50 in the afternoon．We can play basketball or football on Monday or Thursday afternoon．We can join some interests groups in school，such as drawing or reading on Tuesday afternoon，or singing and dancing on Wednesday afternoon．we can go to the English Corner on Friday afternoon．We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities．

20、Each year there are an increasing number of cars on roads, as millions of new cars are produced．One out of every six Americans works at putting together the parts of cars, driving trucks, building roads or filling cars with gas．Americans couldn’t live without cars!

       Most Americans find it hard to think what life would be without a car．However, some have realized the serious problem caused by cars．The polluted air is harmful and dangerous to health．

One way to get rid of the polluted air is to design a new car．That is what several large car factories, are trying to do．But to build the new car is easier said than done．Progress in this field has been slow．

Another way is to replace the car engine with something else．Engineers are working on some new cars．Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases people．

To prevent the world from being polluted by cars, we’ll have to make some changes．Americans, for example, have to cut down the number of their cars．They are encouraged to travel and go to work by bike．Riding a bike is thought to help keep the air clean．

But this change does not come easily．A large number of workers may find themselves with no jobs if a car factory closes down．And the problem of air would become less important than that of unemployment．

Although cars have brought us a better life, they have also brought us new problems．

Many countries are making rules to fight pollution．

They stop people from burning coal in houses and factories and from putting dirty smoke into the air．Pollution by SO₂ is now the most dangerous kind of air pollution．It is caused by heavy traffic．We are sure that if there are fewer people driving, there will be less air pollution．
