Do you plan to go to Hong Kong Disneyland with your family this summer? If your dad smokes, you may have to ask him to be careful. From January 1st, Hong Kong banned (禁止) smoking in most public places. These places include restaurants, workplaces, schools and so on. Even smoking in some outdoor places is not allowed, for example, beaches, sports ground, museums and most areas of public parks. Hong Kong hopes the ban can stop passive smoking. What is passive smoking? When people smoke in a restaurant or on a bus, others have to smoke too. They don"t want to smoke but they have no choice. This is passive smoking. It is bad for people"s health. And it"ll be better if more people in Hong Kong give up smoking because of the ban. Jack Lee, a 26-year-old student says, "The ban is really good. I don"t like people smoking next to me. It"s so smoky and smelly." If someone breaks the ban, he will be fined HK$5,000. Hong Kong is not the first Asian city to have a smoking ban. On January 1, 2006, Singapore banned smoking in most public places. |

The earth has warmed by about half a degree (0.5) over the last 100 years. It could be getting warmer on its own, but many scientists think that people are making the Earth warmer by making a greenhouse effect (温室效应). The greenhouse effect is important. Without it, the Earth would not be warm enough for us to live on. But just a little warmer than it is now could cause problems for humans, plants and animals. Many of things we do every day can change the Earth"s temperature by sending greenhouse gases into the air. We send greenhouse gases into the air when we watch TV, turn on lights, dry hair, play video games, wash or dry our clothes or drive cars. The rubbish from factories and homes also produces greenhouse gases. Even a small change in temperature can affect our weather. This can cause changes in the sea levels, the air, flooding, and our fresh water. The change in the temperature can also cause changes in the living places for animals and plants, endangering many animals. Global warming (全球变暖) is a big problem, and every little bit we do can help. We can save electricity. We can save energy in other ways such as by taking buses or walking rather than driving cars. We can recycle to reduce the rubbish and save natural resources such as trees, oil and metals. We can buy products that don"t do bad to the environment and we can turn to solar energy. Remember the little bit that you do will bring a better world. |

Do you sweat, chew (嚼) your pencil, and feel butterflies in your stomach as your teacher hands out a test? A lot of people get freaked out (兴奋) when it is time to take a test. It is natural to feel some stress (压力) about taking tests. In fact, sometimes a little adrenaline (肾上腺素) is a good thing to jump-start you. Here are some tips for taking tests: ● First, be sure you have studied properly. It sounds like a no-brainer, but if you are sure of the information, you will have less reason to be worried. ● Get enough sleep the night before the test. Your memory recall (使想起, 回想) will be much better if you have had enough rest. In a scientific study, people who got enough sleep before taking a math test did better than those who stayed up all night studying. ● Listen closely to any instructions. As the teacher hands out the test, be sure you know what is expected of you. ● Read the test through first. Once you have the test paper in front of you, read over the full test, checking out how long it is and all the parts that you are expected to complete. This will allow you to estimate (估计) how much time you have for each part and ask the teacher any questions. If something seems unclear before you start, don"t panic: ask. ● Focus (集中) on addressing each question one by one. As you take the test, if you do not know an answer, do not obsess (使困扰) over it. Instead, pass over the question and come back to it after you have answered other questions. ● Relax. You might need a mini-break if you are so nervous that you blank out. Of course you cannot get up and move around in the middle of a test, but you can wiggle (摆动) your fingers and toes, take four or five deep breaths, or picture yourself on a beach or some other calm place. These tips should help most people, but some can get serious test-taking fear. You may need to ask a teacher or counselor for help if you are one of them. |
