From Danielle

Embarrassing moments sometimes seem like they are the end of the world，but really，everybody has them. One day you might be laughed at，but guess what，tomorrow，you will probably be the one laughing at someone else. Sometimes embarrassing moments help people to remember the good things about you，many years from now.

I need some advice on how to make friends! I have just moved to a new city.I am 13.I don't know anybody here and I want to make some friends.What's the best way? Where can I meet people?

Yours，

Tony

Dear Tony,

There are lots of things you can do.First, you can ride your bike in your neighborhood and try to find some kids.When you find some, you can go up and talk to them.You should also let your parents know that you want to make friends because they can help you.Maybe you can ask your parents to take you to the library or some places where there are lots of kids.You could try joining an art class or a sports club.These are all great ways to meet people.You can try making friends at churches (教堂) too if you go to church on Sundays.Try to be active wherever you are, but just be yourself and don't try so hard.It takes time and patience (耐心)．I hope you will find a best friend soon!

Yours,

Know

Information Card

1). Don't buy toys—borrow instead. If kids are concerned，most toys start to lose their shine (光彩).Don't let the unloved toys gather dust around the house—instead，join a local toy library，give them to the library. And if you do buy new toys，try to buy toys made from wood and other eco－friendly materials.

2). Spend time outside. Make sure your child spends time learning to be outside. Let him / her get involved in nature by planting a tree，building a birdhouse，or taking a bike ride in a nearby park.

3). Teach green. Even if your child doesn't receive an environmental education in the classroom，there's no reason that you can't spread the word at home. Let your kid help out with separating your recyclables.

4). Stick with eco－friendly entertainment. Most kids may not seem like interested in the subject on the environment，but put it in a TV show and they'll change their minds. Give them a taste of the online cartoon show，and you'll finally find the children learn it happily and relaxingly.
