The earth is our home. We must take care of it. Life today is easier than it was        years ago, but it has brought some new problems. One of the biggest problems is pollution（污染）. We can see it, smell it, drink it and even       it. Man has polluted the        . The more people, the more pollution.Many years ago, the problem was not so serious because there were not so       people. When the land was used up (用光), the river was not clean in a place,man went to       place. Now man is slowly polluting the whole world       pollution is still the most serious, it’s bad for       things in the world.Many countries don’t le t people burn       for air in houses and factories in the city. Pollution by SO2 is now the most dangerous kind of       pollution. It’s caused by heavy traffic. People say it’s       to ride bikes. When you are       , there is no pollution. But even in developed countries, most people don’t go to work by bike. It’s not      bikes are expen sive or people are tired if they ride to work. It’s because the number of cars on the roads becomes larger. So more people       their bikes and go to work by cars,  then things are getting       . We should have special roads only for bikes and make it       difficult and expensive for drivers to take their cars into the city that they will go back to use their bikes.

It is that time of year again. Your child’s birthday is just around the corner. There is so much to do to get ready for the party. Planning a child’s birthday party is necessary. It can be fun, exciting and sometimes busy. When planning a child’s birthday party, there are many important details( 细节) to remember:
First, you should decide on a theme. It is very important to plan a successful party. Without a theme there would be no party to plan. If the child is old enough, he can choose what theme he wants to have. He can also choose invitations, decorations, cake design, and even games.
Next it is time to decide on a date, a place, and the time to have the party . Most people have the child’s party on the weekend for conveniece (方便) of the parents’ schedule (日程安排). When you have already decided on a date and time, you need to choose a place to have the party. It should be a place your child will enjoy, such as a favorite park, a nice restaurant or your own home.
Another important detail to keep in mind is the guest (客人) list. Always be sure to only invite people that your child knows and likes. Let the child help you write out the guest list. This helps avoid (避免) unwanted guests.
