12.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 necessary-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 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 of 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 neighbourhood and take part in recycling programmes.We should also buy products made from recycled materials,such as recycled paper,to help save trees.
So please remember these three words:reduce,reuse and recycle.

A.How to produce things.

A.You can burn them.
B.You can use them again.
C.You can throw them away.
D.You can change them into something else.

3.閱讀下面短文,在短文的空格內(nèi)填入適當(dāng)?shù)脑~,使其內(nèi)容通順.(每空格限填一詞)
Did you know that the Earth is home to(57)millions of animals?A recent survey shows that scientists have found more than 2 million kinds of animals and there are over 10million we haven't discovered yet.
Animals are much more than food or pets for humans.Animals are(58)clever.Some of them do very unusual things.Research shows that animals can use tools.For example,chimpanzees(黑猩猩) use sticks to get white ants out of the ground.They even teach each other how to use tools.
Scientists find that animals have their (59)own ways to communicate.Did you know dolphins(海豚) use ultrasound(超聲) to communicate?Birds learn to sing from their parents.They also learn to tell the difference between the sound of their group and those of other groups.
Animals have societies too.Let's take ants as an (60)example.An ant family usually has millions of ants.Some ants are strong enough to fight against enemies(敵人).Some take care of babies.Others go looking for food.They have organizations that make the group work well.
Animals can help humans in many ways.Long age,people used pigeons(鴿子) to send mail over long distances.Dogs have been the best friends to humans since ancient times.Nowadays some dogs are even (61)able to guide blind people.Dogs also use their noses to search out drugs for the police.
