In our rush to make life easier, we have decided to go blindly into the future without paying a thought to the severe consequences. The results have been great profits for individuals who have invested their time and money in industries that have improved their (and some others’) quality of life.     小题1:
But if we can create pollution, we can reduce it too. The problem is time and money. And time and money happen to be the investment that the creators of the pollution claim to have made to make life better for all, which means they have made a mess, to some or a large extent, in all cases.
The United States suffered from problems similar to what China is facing today.     小题2:    The US government finally opened its eyes to the problems and told industries to cut down their polluting emissions（排放）, for which it implemented strict laws requiring clean air and water. All the states in the country follow the regulations, and have added additional requirements that enhance the environmental laws. The end result is cleaner air and water.
   小题3:    The answer: the costs for keeping the environment clean eventually became the burden of the people. The equipment needed to create a healthy lifestyle has been added to the cost of making what we want.
The materialistic world that we live in is the cause of most of the pollution. If you wish, you can move away from cities and industrial regions causing the problem.     小题4:    However, you will soon realize how really small the world is when pollution catches up with us through the wind and rain.
It will take time and money to solve the problems the environment faces today.     小题5:    What the Chinese government should do is to immediately implement strict laws that require clean air and water.

A．So who paid for the clean air and water?

B．The results left scars on the land, dirty air and water.

C．If so, you may escape from the commonly known PM2.5 .

D．I’m sure you can find places that are yet to be affected by the pollution.

E. The US government created the Environmental Protection Agency to oversee these laws.
F. But the longer we wait, the worse they will become and the more they will cost to solve.
G. However, that has also brought us side effects like polluted air and water we have to endure.

Gift Giving
小题1:
There are many occasions（场合）for giving gifts in modern industrialized societies: birthdays, naming ceremonies, weddings, anniversaries, New Year. It is common to give gifts on many of these celebrations in western cultures. In addition, special events, such as one’s first day of school or graduation from university, often require gift giving.
小题2:
What is happening when we give gifts? Most important, we are exchanging gifts. If someone gives me a gift for my birthday, I know that I am usually expected to give one on his or her next birthday. A gift builds up or confirms a social obligation（义务）.
小题3:
Gifts tighten personal relationships and provide a means of communication between loved ones. People say that a gift lets the recipient（接受者）know we are thinking of them, and that we want to make the person “feel special.” We want people to feel wanted, to feel part of our social or family group. We give presents to say “I’m sorry.” Sometimes it is difficult for us to find a present that someone will like. Sometimes we give things that we like or would feel comfortable with. In all these cases, the gifts are sending out messages—often very expressive ones.
小题4:
People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way. A woman whose mother had died years ago described the many gifts around her house. These were gifts that her mother had given her over the years: “I appreciate these, and they mean something to me,” the woman said, “because I remember the occasions they were given on, and that they were from my mother, and the relationship we’ve had.” The gifts remain and keep the relationship alive in mind. This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others. She hoped that the recipients would look at her gifts in years to come and remember her.
小题5:
Emotions (情感) like these suggest that a positive spirit still lies behind gift giving. They prove that the anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss was wrong to say that modern western gift giving is highly wasteful. Studies in Canada and elsewhere have also shown that this is not the case. Each gift is unique even if so many are given. The emotional benefit for those who exchange gifts is the very reason for the tradition to continue.

Some Americans judge success on the length of his vacations. The man who gets a month’s vacation each year consider himself more successful than the man gets two weeks. Many people want to be teachers because it are teachers who can get three-month vacation every year. Some college teachers who teach the three classes consider themselves less successful than that who teach only one or two, or none in all. In short, the less work Americans do, the less successful they consider themselves.
