Green Christmas

A.A real tree

B.Eco-friendly Christmas

C.Green advice

D.Recycle or replant

Are you dreaming about a white or green Christmas?

Traditionally, most people hope for a white Christmas in the UK. However, more and more individuals are working towards making it a green one.

With environmental issues a high priority on the social and political agenda, Brits are keen to enjoy the festivities and, at the same time, be kind to the planet.

      1     

Statistics show that more waste is produced at Christmas by the food and drink we consume and the presents we exchange. With this in mind, the government and the public are making a conscious effort to make 2006 an eco-friendly Christmas.

      2     

For example, the Scottish Executive has dedicated a section of its website to advising the public on the different ways they can have a green Christmas.

Suggestions include re-using old Christmas cards and wrapping paper, using energy-saving Christmas lights, and saving product waste by buying “experience” gifts, like theatre tickets or a museum pass.

      3     

Another suggestion on the site was made by Duncan McLaren, from Friends of the Earth Scotland. He said: “If you really must have a Christmas tree, then make it a live one.” This idea is also recommended by local councils across England.

Suffolk Coastal District Council, for example, has encouraged local residents to buy a real Christmas tree which can be planted out or composted after the festive season.

      4     

Councillor Andrew Nunn, the Cabinet Member for the Environment, said: “Trees with roots can be replanted in the garden either for re-use next year or just left to grow to enhance the garden scene. People are often put off buying a real tree because of falling needles, but this is now a thing of the past with new varieties of trees being grown that hardly shed any. Needles that do fall can be swept up and put on the compost heap or in the brown garden waste bin for recycling.”

A. Take some time to speak English
B. Join an English club
C. Have a mirror on the wall
D. Keep it short and simple
E. Listen to good English speakers
F. Practice with peers or family
Here are some tips to improve your spoken English.
【小题1】
Whatever you have learnt or read in a day, practice in front of the mirror. For a start, you can read something from newspapers, English magazines, and books. Take a passage and read it aloud. After you think your accent has improved, try reciting a poem in front of the mirror. This will increase your confidence as well.
【小题2】
Talk to your family members and friends in English. You can also organize debates and  speeches on a low level, where everyone in your family or friend circle speaks on one topic for a few minutes. It will help you get over the fear of making mistakes, as you will be with your friends and family—your comfort zone.
【小题3】
Listen to people who you think are good English speakers. It will help you catch the skill better. You can also watch their videos, listen to them online, or even in person. It can be anyone from Barack Obama to your teacher in school. Find every opportunity to speak English.
【小题4】
You will meet people like you there and it will help you realize that you are not the only person who isn’t good at this subject. Also meeting different people will help you overcome your complex. You can also join coaching classes, which will provide you professional help in learning spoken English.
【小题5】
Nothing is more beautiful than simplicity. So, instead of using an ambiguous(含糊不清的) language with tough words, go for simple words. Learning any new language is difficult and English is no exception. Start simple and go with the flow. With time, you would learn bigger words too.
