【题目】Melissa Poe was 9 years old when she began a campaign for a cleaner environment by writing a letter to the then President Bush.Through her own efforts,her letter was reproduced(复制)on over 250 donated billboards(广告牌)across the country.

The response to her request for help was so huge that Poe established Kids For A Cleaner Environment(Kids F.A.C.E.) in 1989. There are now 300,000 members of Kids FACE worldwide and is the world's largest youth environmental organization.

Poe has also asked the National Park Service to carry out a "Children's Forest" project in every national park. In 1992, she was invited as one of only six children in the world to speak at the Earth Summit in Brazil as part of the Voices of the Future Program. In 1993, she was given a Caring Award for her efforts by the Caring Institute.

Since the organization started, Kids F.A.C.E.members have distributed and planted over 1 million trees! Ongoing tree-planting projects include Kid's Yards—the creation of backyard wildlife habitats and now Kids F.A.C.E.is involved in the exciting Earth Odyssey, which is a great way to start helping.

"Starting the club turned out to be a way to help people get involved with the environment. Club members started doing things like recycling, picking up litter and planting trees as well as inviting other kids to join their club."

【题目】As a natural emotion that everyone experiences in life,anger is in many cases a perfectly healthy emotion.Anger can motivate(激发) people to make very positive changes in their lives.Sometimes we have to be angry at injustice(不公正),or even at nature,before we can do what needs to be done to correct wrongs or make things better.But of course,that is not what we usually think of anger.

Most people think of anger as an emotion we must keep under control.Parents tell a child to get control of himself when the child shows anger.Children are sometimes sent to their rooms or punished for expressing anger in an extreme way.We may be angry with friends or at work,but we know it is usually not suitable to show it.We have to control the anger or suffer what may be the negative consequences.Very early in life,we learn that anger is something that must be controlled.We learn this for a good reason.We know that uncontrolled anger can lead to fights,car accidents,bad relationships with others,unacceptable social behavior,and many other problems.

Many experts say that if one holds his anger in,it can even lead to severe mental and physical health problems.So what can we do to understand and calm this natural emotion that we call anger?

Experts offer many solutions to harmful anger.Some of these solutions include expressing your feelings and talking about what has caused the anger with someone you trust,avoiding a situation that causes anger,beating a pillow,exercising more and many other methods.Whatever solution one chooses,it is good to know that by trying to find the solution to the problem of anger,the first step in the right direction to solving the anger problem has been taken.

Stroke (中风) is the main cause of death and disability in the United States. Every 45 seconds, someone in America has a stroke. 【1】 It is the nation's third leading cause of death, ranking behind diseases of the heart and all forms of cancer. The following is something more about stroke.

Definition and description of a stroke

Stroke is a type of cardiovascular disease. It affects the arteries(动脉) leading to and within the brain. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel(血管) that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts. 2 So stroke forms.

3

The American Stroke Association has identified several factors (因素) that increase the risk of stroke. The more risk factors a person has, the greater the chance that he or she will have a stroke. Some of these you can't control, such as increasing age, family health history, race, and previous stroke. 4 Factors resulting from lifestyle or environment can be improved with a healthcare provider's help.

Breakthroughs in treatment

5 In fact, about 600,000 people have strokes every year. For many years, there was no hope for those suffering a stroke. However, recent breakthroughs have led to new treatments. For the treatments to work, the person must get to a hospital immediately.

A. Risk factors of a stroke.

B .Warning signs of a stroke.

C. Every 3.1 minutes, someone dies of one.

D. A stroke can happen to anyone at any moment.
