As we all know, the environment around us is getting worse and worse. In some places we can’t see fish 　26 in the river or trees on the hills. Some people even have no clean water to drink.

Recently, a new lifestyle called low carbon life is 　27 every comer of our country. The meanings of low carbon are 　28 energy and no waste. It is such an important project that I can’t wait 29 my ideas on how to promote it.

First，we should 　30 a no-car day every week in our school. Because cars not only cause serious air pollution but also waste energy. 　31 the no-car day, neither students 　32 teachers are allowed to drive to school. At the same time，just walk or run. Use our 　33 and enjoy the fun.

Second, we had better not use plastic bags 　34 . No one can stand the “white pollution”， 　35 it is wise to use cloth bags which can 　36 again and again.

37 ，one thing 　38 we should keep in mind is that every big thing comes from the small details. So, as students, we ought to turn 　39 the lights the moment we leave, use 40 sides of the paper, and reuse our textbooks and so on.

All in all, it weighs greatly for all of us to put the low carbon lifestyle into practice. Just set our mind to these：no-car days, no plastic bags, and no waste. Let’s do it now.

Most of my day is full of lessons and homework. It is very  36 to find time for myself. But when I get some free time, I have many 37 to do, such as sleeping, going to the movies and listening to music.

     First, I like sleeping very much, When I am at school, I try to make time during my break and lunchtime to get 38  minutes to sleep. It helps me   39   awake all the way. If I do not get a good sleep, I will be very tired the next day.

     Second, going to the movies can make me relax (放松), When I am tired, it is a good idea 40   and watch a movie. Laughing, getting frightened and even   41   are all good ways of relaxing.

     Listening to music is my hobby   42  . I think music is very important in   43  life. Some parents think listening to music will make their children become poor students, so they   44   them from listening to it. But I don’t think so. When I am in a bad mood (心情), music can   make me quiet.

      45   hobbies, there will be no colour in my life, I will keep my hobbies forever.

Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a necessary 　31 of the learning process. But too often as parents and teachers we deny this same right to our children. We convey(传达) 32 　by words or by actions that failure is something to be ashamed of, that nothing but 　33　 performance pleases us.

34 I see a child under this kind of pressure ,I think of Jack. He is a shy, nervous perfectionist. He 　35 answered questions—he might be 　36 .

I try my best to 　37 his self-confidence. And I repeatedly 　38 　God for direction. But 　39 changed until midterm, when Mary, a student teacher, came to our classroom.

One day we were working with math problems. Jack had copied the problems with care. 40 with his progress, I left the children with Mary .When I returned, Jack was in tears. He’d missed the third problem.

At that time, Mary got a box 　41 with pencils from the desk we shared. “Look, Jack ! I’ve got something to show you.” she said.“ See these pencils, they belong to Mrs. Green and me. See how the erasers are 　42　 ? That’s because we make mistakes too. But we erase the mistakes and try 　43 . That’s what you must learn to do, too.” Jack looked up with 　44 in his eyes---the first time I’d see on his face that year.

Jack gradually believe him that it’s all 　45 to make mistakes – as long as you erase them and try again.

The weather in some parts of the United States changes a lot and often very quickly.

James and Jennifer were 　36 from Nevada to Idaho with their five-month-old son. Shortly after they left home it began to snow. The snow was soon so 37 that it became a blizzard(暴风雪). The blizzard went on for many hours. By the time it was 38 , there was about 1.5 meters of snow on the road and it was 39 　to drive. They looked around for a house to stay in, 40 they could see nothing. They looked for another 　41 , but there wasn’t one to travel on. They 　42 stay where they were. They stayed there for 43 　days. They had very little to eat or drink. They ate some cookies they had in the car, and they even had 44 for water. Jennifer was able to feed her baby herself.

After five days, they knew they could 　45 stay in their car. James made a large hole(洞) in the snow for Jennifer and the baby to stay in,and he started the long walk to 46 . In 22hours he walked over 45 kilometers. At last he got to the town of Vya. James was very 47 and could just speak, but he was able to tell the people in the town 48 Jennifer and his son were. The people in the town hurried to 49 Jennifer and her baby. When they found them, the baby was crying loudly. They took them to hospital, where the doctors 50　 them.

Many people thought it was a miracle(奇迹) that the family didn’t die in such a blizzard.
