My sister Alli and I have been trying to get people to stop dropping cigarette butts(烟蒂) for seven years.
One day, we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground. 16 They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people stop dropping butts. We called it “No Butts About It!”
At first, we drew pictures with “The Earth Is Not Your Ashtray(烟灰缸)” written on them. We put the pictures around our hometown—in parks, by beaches, and along roads.
We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts does harm to the environment. Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts harms the earth. 17
Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give smokers.
We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts.
At the moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes. 18 Many people have started to join our group since it began. 19 And there are even groups in England, Australia and India!
Many newspapers have written about my sister and I over the last seven years. And we have won many prizes for our good work.
20 We just want to make the earth a better and cleaner place for animals, plants and people.
One day it will be.

How to Get Children to Stop Touching Their Faces
Kids seem like they're always touching everything in their environment, from tables and chairs to doors and stairs. Since those surfaces may hold germs(细菌),you can help your child avoid illness by encouraging them not to touch their face throughout the day.
71.________ Once your child is about 3 years old, you can begin having conversations with them and avoiding germs, including the importance of washing their hands and how touching their face can spread germs to their nose and mouth. While just knowing this information probably won't help them break the habit, it can help set the groundwork.
72._______ If you don't want to criticize(批评)your child when they forget, it is important to remind them when you see them with their hands around their face or mouth. Sometimes, just knowing that they're doing it will be enough to help them stop doing it.
73._________ It can be hard to remember sometimes, but look for chances to let your child know when they're doing a good job of keeping their hands away from their face. Encouraging words can be a really powerful motivation(动机)for kids to keep trying when they're learning something new.
74.________ Children often touch their faces or mouths without thinking about it. Many times, it's just because they're bored and they're looking for a way to excite themselves. If you think that might be the case, try giving your child a toy they can hold onto.
A. Point out any time you se your child touching their face. B. Encourage your child to wash their face carefully. C. Offer your child something they can hold. D. Explain why it' important if your child is old enough. E. Praise your child when they aren't touching their face. |

Hopes, ambitions (抱负), dreams. How many of yours will you achieve? When you look back at your life in the future, will you have good memories of all he things that you did? Or will you regret all the things that you didn't do?
Of course, there's no easy road to success, but one thing is certain: success won't come if you don't do anything. So how do you do it? This four-step model will help you to make your dreams come true.
Step 1: 32
What would you like to do? Write down all your ambitions. They may be very general, such as I would like to be fitter. I want to be famous or It would be nice to have more friends. Or they may be more specific, like I've always wanted to play a musical instrument.
Step 2: 33
Now you need to do two things:
1. Choose one or two ambitions. If you try to do everything, you won't do anything.
2. Set a time limit (限定). This is very important, because you will have a goal and you will also know when you have reached it.
So, for example, I would like to be fitter. in Step 1 now becomes I will be fit enough to join a half-marathon race by the end of August.
Step 3: 34
Now that you've made your choice, what are you actually going to do to achieve your goal? So, in our example, I will be fit enough to join a half-marathon race by the end of August. becomes I'm going to join a running club. or I'm going to go jogging three times a week.
Step 4: 35
This is when you change your intentions (意图) into specific actions. Prepare to do something at a specific time. If you don't do this, your dreams and plans will just stay as dreams and plans. So now I'm going to join a running club. becomes I'm meting the president of the Cheetahs Running Club on Monday evening at 5∶30.
Don't let your ambitions die. Follow this four-step plan and make your dream come true.
A. Change I would like to.. . to I will. . . B. Change I did. . . to I do. . . C. How to be successful D. Change I'm going to. .. to I'm doing.. . on. .. at. .. E. Think about your ambitions F. Change I will. . . to I'm going to. . . |

Winston Churchill once said, “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” These are certainly words that millions of volunteers around the world could agree with.
In the US, April is National Volunteer Month, to praise and thank volunteers who lend their time, talent, and support to what they care about.
46 People who volunteer spend their time doing things they feel strongly about. For example, animal lovers may volunteer at an animal centre to help improve the treatment of animals.
Volunteering allows volunteers to meet new people, try out new skills and explore career choices. 47
Take Andrew Makhoul, a student at the University of Pennsylvania, as an example. Andrew didn’t spend his last spring break relaxing. Instead, the 19-year-old boy decided to do something for people who were less lucky than himself. He travelled to an orphanage(孤儿院)in Guatemala in Central America. 48 And it depends on volunteers to stay open.
Andrew doesn’t speak much Spanish, but he found communication wasn’t a problem, “You communicated with love,” according to an article on his university’s website. And what he gave out, he got back, “ 49 ” Andrew’s first time as a volunteer only lasted a week, but by the end of that week, he knew he’d be back soon-because he saw love and hope.
US author Sherry Anderson once wrote, “ 50 ” And this is perhaps why volunteers all around the world keep doing what they do-their work is “priceless”.
A. It is in one of the poorest parts of the country. B. You could see love when you looked in their eyes. C. Volunteering means choosing to work without being paid. D. It’s a chance for poor children to get better care and support. E. Life will be difficult, but I have the confidence to live a happy, full life. F. For young adults, valuable lessons may also be learned through volunteering. G. Volunteers don’t get paid, not because they’re worthless, but because they’re priceless. |
