    Since the first Earth Day in 1970，Americans have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment.“We didn't know at that time that there even was an environment，let alone that there was a problem with it，”says Bruce Anderson，president of Earth Day USA.
    But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement.Business people，political leaders，university professors，and especially millions of grassroots Americans are taking part in the movement.“The understanding has increased many，many times，”says Gaylord Nelson，the former governor from Wisconsin，who thought up the first Earth Day.
    According to US government reports，emissions（排放）from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons.The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9.Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with，the world is a safer and healthier place.A kind of “green thinking ” has become part of practices.
    Great improvement has been achieved.In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs；today in 1995 there are about 6,600.Advanced lights，motors，and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.

    Twenty-five years ago，there were hardly any education programs for environment.Today，it's hard to find a public school，university，or law school that does not have such a kind of program.“Until we do that，nothing else will change！”says Bruce Anderson.

    Many of us know what it feels like to be an outside in high school. Some give in to the pressure to fit in; others remain “on the bottom of the social food chain”. However, Alexandra Robbins, the author of the book The Geeks Shall Inherit The Earth believes what makes people unpopular in high school, mainly an unwillingness to obey, tends to translate into success as an adult.

    Robbins has spent the past decade analyzing the behavior of high school students. She found the things that make a student different make them a target. But in adulthood and outside of the school setting, the things “that make you different make you interesting, fun, and often successful,” she told the UK’s Daily Mail.

    She researched the qualities that people found most valuable in adults. The top qualities are: creativity, free-thinking, vision, authenticity, self-awareness, honesty, curiosity, love of learning, and courage. “Those are qualities that are far more likely to be found in school outsiders than in the popular kids,” she said.

    According to Robbins, when people are in with a popular crowd, they are more likely to hide aspects of their identity in order to fit into the group. As she put it to Yahoo.com, “You are more likely to have goals of social dominance(强势)rather than forming actual true friendships. You are more likely to let other people pressure you into doing things. None of those things is admirable or useful as adults.”

    Meanwhile, in the eyes of Robbins, the outsiders are much more self-aware and much braver than the popular students. They are brave because they are sticking to being themselves in a challenging environment.

    There are many celebrity examples of progress from unpopularity to later fame. Hollywood director Steven Spielberg was laughed at for being Jewish in high school. JK Rowling, author of hugely popular Harry Potter, was teased in school as a glasses-wearing child who lived mostly in books and daydreams.

    Robbins encourages students to participate in out-of-class activities. “They will automatically meet people with similar tastes,” she told Daily Mail.

    1.According to Robbins, what can make a student a target in high school?

    A. Difference to others

    B. Pressure to fit in

    C. Unwillingness to obey

    D. Behavior of high school students

    2.Which quality is NOT considered to be valuable in adults?

    A. Being creative

    B. Being authentic

    C. Being different

    D. Being curious

    3.Why do popular kids tend to be not as successful as outsiders?

    A. They may have goals of forming actual true friendships

    B. They may hide aspects of their identity to fit in

    C. They may force others into doing things

    D. They may stick to being themselves in the society

    4.Which of the following statements is true?

    A. Young people who are outside are successful as adults

    B. JK Rowling is one of celebrities of unpopularity

    C. Unpopular students develop skills while the popular don’t

    D. Robbins encourages young people to be themselves

    You must have written your research paper, your personal essay, your book review-----whatever your school class requires. You think you have provided good information in the needed number of words.1.

    But is it really done? Many teachers and professional writers believe that writing is revision.2.

    Revision of writing is a necessary skill for students. The classroom is a good place to practice patience, concentration and listening. There are rewards with spending time with your thoughts and really taking time to compose your ideas in an orderly and reasonable way. You should put away your paper after you have written a first version, or draft. Wait several hours, maybe overnight, before working on it more.3. Not only are you refreshed, but you’re looking at things through different eyes. That’s what revision literally means—to see again through different eyes.

    Following a four-step process may help you with your paper. The first step in the process is invention. It includes forming many questions about your subject. It is called “question-storming”.4.Then comes the revision period. Take your time to read what you’ve written, to think about it, and maybe to re-shape it based on what you see now, as a kind of new person looking at it with a reader’s eyeglasses rather than a writer’s. The fourth step is called “publication”.5.In a sense, anytime you turn it over to another person, that’s publication.

    Probably, the process takes away some of the tension of writing. And worry about the quality of your writing often disappears when you share that writing.

    A. Perfect writing is not possible.

    B. In the second step, you draft and compose a paper.

    C. And you feel good because your work is finished.

    D. This is just like returning to a job after a vacation.

    E. This does not mean your writing is professional publication.

    F. What is most important is getting your thoughts and ideas on paper.

    G. In other words, writing well means making needed changes and rewriting.

    Now most children chat daily either online or through their mobile phones, They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world.
