In New York City, some bike riders have even 1 a group: Bike for a Better City. They say if 2 people rode bikes to work, there would be fewer cars and less dirty air. For several years this group has tried to get help for bike riders. They want to have special roads for bikes only, because when bike riders must use the same roads 3 cars, there may be accidents. Bike for a Better City feels if there were bike roads, more people would use bikes. But 4 bike roads have been ready yet. Not everyone thinks it is a good5 . Divers don"t like it, and some shop owners don"t, 6 . And most people live 7 far from the city to travel by bike. Still, 8 has been done about it.

Julia Hill, an American woman, was born in 1974. She was 23 years old when she discovered that a company wanted to cut down part of a forest in California. In the forest there were lots of redwood trees. One of the trees was 70 meters tall and 1,000 years old. Julia wasn’t happy about this. She traveled to California and climbed up the tree. “If I sit in the tree.” she said, “the company can’t cut it down.” At the beginning, Julia planned to stay in the tree for two weeks. She lived in a small tree-house and her friends were very helpful---they cooked food for her every day. She used her mobile phone to talk to her family and to news reporters. She stayed in the tree day and night. Environmental organizations supported her, but other people weren"t on her side and they tried to stop her. The company used a helicopter that stayed near her tree-house for a long time. The helicopter(直升飞机)Was very noisy and there was a lot of wind. Julia didn’t like it, but she stayed in the tree. In the end, she was successful. The company agreed not to cut down the redwood. Finally, after two years and eight days in the tree, Julia Hill climbed down and walked on the ground again. She and her friends were very happy. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Nowadays problems with the earth are getting more and more serious. For example, pollution is making the environment not anymore suitable for us to live in. Also, energy is running out. However, there is still something everyone can do in our daily lives to help save our planet. First of all, we should turn off the lights when leaving a room. It"s really easy to do. Also, we"re supposed to turn off the shower while washing our hair. And are you still using paper napkins? You"d better stop now because paper is made from wood. If everyone uses paper napkins, a lot of trees will have to be cut down every day. Maybe it is hard to stop using paper napkins, but we must try. At the same time, we should think of good ways to recycle paper. Another thing is that we must try to take our own bags when shopping instead of using plastic bags that are provided by the supermarkets. Finally, we must stop driving cars because cars pollute the air. Instead, we"d better ride bicycles. For one thing, it"s good for our health. For another, it"s much cleaner. I really hope that more and more people will realize the problem and do what they can to help make our world a better place to live in. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
