It's very important that we all recycle(再利用)．In nature, everything 1 again．For example, when an animal dies, it becomes 2 animal's food．Nothing is wasted．But humans have created things like plastic bags 3 can't be broken down by nature．Our rubbish kills animals and 4 water and soil． 5 we continue making too much rubbish, the problem will only get worse．If nature can't reuse the rubbish, we must recycle 6 ．
We should clean up the rubbish we've made because nature can't．
Recycling is also the right thing to do for another reason．The earth is rich in natural materials like water and trees, 7 these materials are not endless．We use up our natural materials much 8 than the earth is able to reproduce them．For example, each year we cut 9 more that 6,000 square miles of forest．But it takes an average of 25 years for a new tree 10 ．
Recycling can help us save the earth, so let's take action right now．

语法选择
Although English is not as old as Chinese, it is 1 by many people around the world every day．English speakers are always creating new words, and we are often able to know where most words come from．
Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes 2 ．Did you ever think about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham(火腿)?About a hundred years ago, some men 3 to America from Europe．They came from a big city in Germany 4 Hamburg．They did not speak good English, but they ate good food．When some Americans saw them 5 round pieces of beef, they asked the Germans what it was．The Germans did not understand the question and answered,“We come from Hamburg．”One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea．He cooked some round pieces of beef like those 6 the men from Hamburg ate．Then he put each between two pieces of bread and started 7 them．Such bread came to be called“hamburgers”．Today“hamburgers”are sold in many countries 8 the world．
9 this story is true or not, it certainly is interesting．Knowing why any word has certain meaning is 10 , too．This reason, for most English words, can be found in any large English dictionary．
I still remember I fell in love with English from a very young age, because I thought it was 1 useful language．Full of strong wishes of 2 English, I began to learn it．But soon I found it 3 than expected．There were too many words, expressions and many other things to remember．And even if you know 4 , you can't use them correctly and exactly．And I did rather 5 in my first English test．I was worried about it．This made me 6 my interest in English little by little．
While I was in trouble, my English teacher gave me much help．I knew that interest didn't mean 7 and I should have some learning methods．I did 8 he said and tried many different ways of learning English．As the days went by, I could do better and better and became more and more interested in it．
During summer vacation, an old lady from Australia visited my school．She had a talk with us．It was the first time to meet a foreigner．I got 9 nervous at first, but soon I found it exciting to talk with her, and I learned a lot from her． 10 I wish to practice speaking English with foreigners every day!
