Every weekend, Nyima holds a plastic bag of garbage, such as used water bottles, as she returns from home.

The garbage collected by the 14-year-old will be turned into stationary（文具）, items like pencils and notebooks, she says. "It is a habit for us to pick up the garbage in the ground." said Nyima. "It is hard to find enough garbage for exchange now"

"It took me about one month to save up enough waste bottles to get something like a notebook," said Nyima. The boy students sometimes work together and wait for a long time in order to get larger items, such as soccer balls and basketballs.

Since 2015, a program called "Garbage for Stationery" has improved the school environment and made students care about the environment around them in six middle schools in the area along with ecology（生態(tài)學(xué)） and environment classes.Students have welcomed the program since it started.There are about 40 stationary items available for exchange. The school has spent about 20,000 yuan on the program, and some of the money has come from donations from society.

According to Nyiga, headmaster of the school, fighting poverty through education requires not only knowledge but also a sense of responsibility among future generations to protect the environment the local people rely on.

How to survive a disaster? Most survivors says that nothing felt, sounded or looked the way they would have expected. Reality was in some ways better, in other ways w【1】. They say there are things they wish they had known.

On September 28, 1994, a ship called the Estonia sank, which was the worst sea disaster in modern European h【2】. Kent was then a 29-year-old passenger. He was hanging out in the bar with some other passengers that night. Suddenly, the ship list to 30, hurling passengers across its passageways. Kent began to act at once. “I started to react very differently from normal. I started to say, ‘Oh， the boat is sinking.’ ”Like many survivors, Kent experienced a state in which the brain focuses on the individual experience, “I just say my small world.”

But as Kent made his way into the corridor, he noticed something strange. Not just one or two passengers, but entire groups seemed unable to m【3】. They were conscious (有意識(shí)的), but they were not reacting.

In the case of the Estonia and other diseases, the freezing response may have been a natural and horrible m【4】. Under extreme stress, our brains search for a proper survival response and sometimes choose the wrong one. But the more encouraging point is that the brain is plastic. It can be trained to respond more properly. If we can r【5】 our own fear even a little bit, we might be able to do better.

Fire drills, particularly if they are unexpected, can dramatically reduce fear. Knowing where the stairs are in a building can give your brain an a【6】. Safety drills give our brains blueprints in the unlikely event that we need them. We can also help each other do better. Many flight attendants are now rained to scream at passengers in burning planes, “Get out! Go!” People r【7】 well to leadership in a disaster, and then they can do remarkable things.
