  War, money and power are a few things that countries and people are concerned about.  1  I agree that those things are important, I believe that everyone should start to  2  more on a growing problem-global warming.

  Global warming will not only  3  our country and our generation, but also the entire  4  and future generations.It is  5  because the weather has been a lot warmer over the past few years, which  6  the melting(融化)of the ice in the Antarctic.This will soon cause water levels to  7  and flood parts of the world.

  Many people ignore this problem because they feel  8   they can't do anything about it and have more  9  things to worry about.If we all  10  so, then our ozone layer(臭氧层)will be  11  and the planet will no longer be able to make life continue to exist.We should do our best to limit the use of our planet's  12  resources(资源)and keep our air clean.  13  , future generations will suffer from our  14  

  Some might feel that they can't stop global warming from  15  .But if every single person does his or her part in keeping the air clean, then it will become a  16  effort.Sure, there are some things that cause pollution and that we won't be able to  17  change.This may include cars burning oil, but we can  18  adjust some of these things.People can start carpooling, taking the bus, riding their bikes, or  19  just walking.

  If everyone takes  20  now, I believe we can start seeing remarkable results within a few years.

Early Childhood Education

  Early childhood education is the formal(正规的)teaching and care of young children.It primarily focuses on learning through playing to encourage the child's different kinds of development.  1  

  Studies with Head Start programs throughout the United States have shown some evidence that there are quite a few advantages to early childhood education, which can produce significant gains in children's learning and development.Compared to a child who does not attend pre-school, children completing their early education programs are found to be better at math and reading skills.They are excited to learn and have the tools to do so.  2   These children are more competent in their pre-school, kindergarten and school-age years, and they are usually reported as “friendlier” by parents and the children's peers(同伴).

    3   In studies with matched control groups, more students who had early schooling experiences were employed at the age of 19, fewer were on welfare, and fewer were involved with the criminal activity.What's more, some studies show that children attending pre-school are more likely to graduate and have higher education, and be well integrated(综合)as an adult.

  Early childhood education gives most children a jump-start on education for their kindergarten and primary school years.It is clear that early childhood education can have some great benefits for children.  4   If early childhood education is less effective, perhaps the best model is finding strategies for allowing a parent to stay home with his or her child for at least the first two to three years.Also important is considering a child's own personality.  5  

A.The long-term influence of early education is significant as well.

B.They can benefit greatly from encouragement in their early childhood.

C.Yet its quality must be assessed to see what kind of benefits it actually provides.

D.They are also able to relate to others in a superior way and that improves their social skills.

E.Many experts of education have concerned about what early childhood education means today.

F.Individual differences in children mean that not all children will get equal benefits from early childhood education.

G.It consists of activities that serve children in the pre-school years and is designed to improve later school performance.
