    There has been frequent haze in the last few years in many cities. It's time for people to start paying attention to air pollution.

    Let's take action now!

    E-waste is fast becoming a serious problem around the world.This report will examine this problem and provide some possible ways to solve it.

    We live in a society that is producing and using electronics (电子产品) all the time.It is often cheaper to buy new products than to repair old ones.Also,through clever advertising,companies always encourage people to change their old TVs,mobile phones and computers for the latest models.E-waste is created when we throw away old ones.In the EU alone,about 8,700,000 tons of E-waste is produced each year.Sadly,just over 1,000,000 tons is recycled.

    Burying (填埋) E-waste or burning it causes setious problems for the environment.Electronics have dangerous things in them.These things can then get into the ground or pollute the air when they are burnt.

    In recent years,  ▲   .However,their plans are not always managed properly.Sometimes electronics are just sent to poor countries such as Ghana.Here they are often burnt in public areas,which is very bad for people's health.Setting up recycling centers is a good way to solve this problem.E-cycling centers could recycle the parts that can be reused and deal with the rest properly.

    Another way is to make producers responsible for their used products.This means that producers must take back old products which are no longer wanted.They should then make sure they are properly recycled or reused.

    As for us,we should try to cut down on E-waste.Change electronics only when we have to.And don't buy a product just to have the latest model.

    E-waste is a serious problem in the modern world.Both producers and users must take actions and try to keep it to the smallest amount.

    How green are you? Do you know how to be green?

    We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment.Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment.Here are some ideas for you.

Reduce

    Reduce means “use less”.Don't waste things.This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment.Before we buy something new, think whether it is really neces sary or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad.

Reuse

    Reuse means "use again".Use things for as long as possible.When we buy things, make sure that they can last a long time.We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones.Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag.It's better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.

Recycle

    Recycle means “change things into something else”.Though it takes energy to change something into something else, it's better than throwing things away or burning them.Find out what can be recycled in your neighborhood and take part in the recycling program.We should also buy products made from recycled materials,such as recycled paper, to help save trees.

    So please remember three words: reduce, reuse and recycle.

    The death of Xiangxiang, the five-year-old panda who lived in Wolong Giant Panda Research （中心）, attracted the attention of the whole （社会） recently.

    Last year Xiangxiang became the first to be set free into the wild. The 176 pounds male panda survived less than a year in the wild, until scientists （发现） that his body condition suddenly became worse. Some people were sent out to see what （发生）, only to find it （死）.

    Those who fed and cared for him must still remember the enormous playful Xiangxiang. During the five years they have tried everything to （教给） him the （方法, 措施） in living independently. When they heard that sad news, they couldn't help weeping（流泪） for the death of the lovely panda （谁） had been with them for five years.

    According to scientists, when Xiangxiang was looking for food in his habitat, it met a wild panda which was much more aggressive. When they were having a （残酷的） fighting, Xiangxiang unfortunately fell from a high tree to the （底部） of cliff（悬崖）.

    Around the world, there are about 7,000 National Parks. Most of them cover huge areas of land where nobody lives. However, the National Parks in England include places where people live and work, as well as wild areas where there are few human activities.

    The National Parks in England are called "England's Breathing Spaces" because they are places where people can go to be in the open air, away from the dirt and noise of cities. They provide wonderful scenes of mountains, woods, grasslands and wetlands. And there are plenty of activities to do in all of the National Parks in England. Visitors can walk or ride bikes for fun. Many of the parks put on activities for families.

    Every year there are about 110 million visitors to the parks, bringing many benefits(益处) to the areas. At the same time, it creates problems, too.

    First, life can be difficult for local people. Car parks and roads are too crowded. Gift shops and cafes take the place of many everyday shops. Even house prices in some areas can become too high. Besides, country roads can be damaged, for too many people walk, cycle or ride horses on them. Roads can be rebuilt, but then they look less natural. Another big problem to the National Parks is litter. In the parks it is a danger to wild animals. Broken glass can also cause fires by focusing the rays of the sun. Such fires in wild places can be out of control.

    _______All National Parks in England are making more rules, which tell people how to take good care of their environment. If these rules are followed, the National Parks will be well kept and continue to give pleasure to many people for a very long time.
