     __1__ The goal here is to limit carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which are closely
associated to the big problem of global warming.
     Strategy 1: Bring your own cup to Starbucks
     You'll get a 10 cent discount, and it's one less paper cup to end up in a landfill. While you're there, pick
up some free bags of spent coffee grounds to use as "green" fertilizer in your garden.    
     The payoff:  2   
     Strategy 2: Turn off your computer
     When in standby mode, your PC is still using energy.    3  
     The payoff: Turning off a monitor for 40 hours a week may only save $5 a month, but it reduces CO?
by 750 pounds.
     Strategy 3: Reuse plastic bags
     Instead of throwing away 100 billion plastic bags a year, try and get a second, third, or tenth use out of
them. Better yet, next time you shop, try a reusable bag.
The payoff:   4   The amount of oil it would take to make just 14 plastic bags would run your car for one
mile.
     Strategy 4: Use recycled paper in the bathroom
     Most of the toilet paper we use is made from trees found in forests previously untouched by humans.
     The payoff: If every household replaced one roll of toilet paper with a recycled one, 424000 trees
would still be standing. Look for eco paper towels too.
     Strategy 5: Buy energy-efficient appliances(电器)
     Replace the old fridge with an Energy Star appliance and you'll use 15 percent less energy.   5  .
     The payoff: If we all used one Energy Star appliance at home, it would be like planting 1.7 million acres of new trees.

     Don't you think your schoolbag is too heavy to bear? The e-schoolbag will free you from
the weight.
     It is said that e-schoolbags are going to be brought into use in Chinese middle schools
soon. An experiment with several hundred e-schoolbags will begin in seven cities: Beijing,
Shanghai, Dalian, Shenzhen, Chongqing, Taiyuan and Shijiazhuang. And the e-schoolbags
are going to cover all over China if the experiment shows to be successful. In fact, the
e-schoolbag should perhaps be called an e-notebook. It is a small hand-held computers
for school students.
     Heavy schoolbags have long been a serious problem for school students. The average
schoolbag of middle school students weighs up to 5 kilos. But the e-schoolbag will change
everything. It is much lighter than a usual schoolbag, weighing under 1 kilo.
     Also, it is no bigger than a usual book, but it can still hold all the things for study, such
as a textbook, a notebook and exercise book. They could be made into chips that are as
small as a stamp. The students can read the text page by page on the screen. They can
still take notes using a special electronic pen. If they want to know the meaning or the
pronunciation of a new word, or even e-mail their teachers, it's just a press of a button.
     In some foreign countries, it is becoming common. But it is hard to tell when people
will receive this new form of study. Some say that e-textbooks can easily be broken,
some say that it is not good to students' eyesight to look at the screen for long.But only
time will tell.
