Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass, the leaves on trees and most growing plants. Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet ripe or finished. For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no expereince, who is new to a situation.  In the 15th century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns had not yet developed.  A century or so later, a greenhorn was a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle. By the 18th century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early 1990s. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.
The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops.  The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs.
Green is also the color used to describe the powerful emotion, envy. The green-eyed monster is not a terrible creature from outer space.  It is an expression used about four hundred years ago by British writer William Shakespeare in his play “Othello.” It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone else has something he wants.  A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else. Or, that green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay rise and she does not.

If people work to meet their needs, it would be good to know what these needs are. They are very simple. Dr. Maslow has suggested that people have only five needs. Everyone has them, and everyone spends his or her life trying to satisfy them. Although we may try to satisfy our needs in different ways, we all are trying to satisfy the same needs. In a way, it is these needs, which are common to all people that make us human. They seem to be a basic part of human nature.
The needs, which occur in the order shown below, can briefly be described as follows:
1. The Physiological Needs--Our needs for the things that keep our bodies alive – food, water, air, rest, elimination, etc. These needs come first. We must meet them or we will die.
2. The Safety Needs--First we need to stay alive, and then we need to be safe. There are two kinds of safety needs: the need to be physically safe and the need to be psychologically safe or secure.
3. The Belongingness Needs--Once we are alive and safe, we then try to satisfy our social need, a need to be with and accepted by other people. We discover our need for love.
4. The Esteem Needs--After our first three needs are fairly well met, we try to satisfy a fourth need. This is a need for recognition, respect, reputation. The need has two parts: self esteem(thinking well of ourselves) and the esteem of others.
5. The Self--Actualization Needs--The highest need of man is to actualize himself, to achieve his full potential, to become all that he might be. This need is one that no one ever satisfies completely, partly because we are too busy trying to satisfy our lower needs.
If Dr. Maslow is correct, those are the things we are after. Our work, rest, play--whatever we do--is done in an effort to meet one or more of those needs.

When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people walking dogs.    48   is still true that a dog is the    49   useful and faithful animal in the world,    50   the reason why people keep a dog has changed. In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against animal attacks. And later they came to realize that a dog was not    51    useful for protection but willing to obey his master. But now people in the city need not protect themselves against attacks of animals.    52  
do they keep dogs, then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the most important reason is    53   companionship. A dog is his best friend for
   54   child when he has no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is their child when they have    55   children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up.
