Did you see snow in your hometown last winter? Did you feel it was warmer than before? "There have been 21 warm winters in China since 1986," said scientists. They also said that in the past 100 years, as the global temperature went up by 0.74℃, the temperature in North China has climbed 1.4℃ in only 50 years.
China needs to take quick action to cut carbon dioxide emission, because it's the main reason for global warming. The good news is that China has seen the importance of going green. China set the goal of cutting energy use by 20 percent and pollution emission by 10 percent.
Can you slow down global warming? Sure! You and your family can take steps to cut the amount of carbon dioxide that is sent out into the air.
Here are some pieces of advice to help you save the earth.
● Wear used clothes. Wearing your brother's, sister's or dad's old T-shirt means you save the energy.
● Change your light bulbs. Use energy-saving light bulbs. And don't forget to turn off the lights when you leave a room and turn off your television and computer when they are not in use!
● Ride the bus. Taking a bus saves a lot of oil every year.
● Say no to plastic bags. The next time your parents go to the market, ask them to use baskets.
● Open a window. Don't use the air conditioner, and let some fresh air in. When you have to use the conditioner, set the temperature higher in summer and lower in winter to save energy.
● Make small changes in your daily life. Don't use paper cups, bags and boxes. It's time for all of us to do something to save the earth.

If you are like millions of people around the world, you may have new goals(目标) from time to time. Perhaps you want to save money, lose weight or learn a new skill. But then you get busy. Before you know it, weeks, then months have gone by, and you are no closer to your goal.
When we do not work on our goals, we may end up feeling guilty or not successful. So, how can we work on these larger life goals?
Set specific goals
As you set your goals, be specific. If a goal is too general, it may be hard to achieve.
Let's say your goal is to get in better physical shape. That's a fine idea—but scientists might say as a goal, it is too general. To make the goal more specific, you could say your goal is to lose a certain amount of weight in a certain amount of time.
Write your goals down
Experts say writing down your goal is a very important step. It gets the goal out of your brain and into the real world.
Some scientists suggest that writing a goal on paper is better than typing it on your computer or saying it into your phone. Your brain receives information differently when it comes from handwriting. Writing things down seems to say to the brain, “I am important! Remember me!”
Tell a friend
Telling someone your goal is also helpful.
If someone else knows about your goals, you are held accountable for any progress or lack of progress. Your friend might ask, “So, how many pages of your novel have you written?” If you keep saying “none,” you might feel bad.
Break down BIG goals into small ones
Not all goals are created equal. Some can be quite big. And for those bigger goals, experts suggest breaking them down into smaller ones.
So, let's say you want to work for yourself. You love cooking. So, you decide to start your own company that supplies food for special events. Now, that is a very big goal. But it is made up of many smaller goals. So, identify them, write them down and set time limits for yourself.
These suggestions all help to realize your goals. Your way to your goal makes up the weeks, days and hours of your lives. So make sure to have fun along the way!
