         Proper arrangement of classroom space is important to encouraging interaction. Most of us have noticed
    how important physical setting is to efficiency and comfort in our work. College classroom space should be
    designed to encourage the activity of critical thinking.
         We are in the twenty-first century now, but step into almost any college classroom and you step back in
    time at least a hundred years    . Desks are normally in straight rows, so students can clearly see the teacher but
    not all their classmates. The message behind such an arrangement is obvious. Everything of importance comes
    from the teacher.
         With a little imagination and effort, unless desks are fixed to the floor, the teacher can correct this situation
    and create space that encourages interchange among students. In small or standard-sized classes, chairs,
    desks, and tables can be arranged in a variety of ways. The primary goal should be for everyone to be able to
    see everyone else. Large classes, particularly those held in lecture halls, unfortunately, allow much less
    flexibility.
         Arrangement of the classroom should also make it easy to divide students into small groups for discussion
    or problem-solving exercises. Small classes with movable desks and tables present no problem. Even in large
    lecture halls, it is possible for students to turn around and form groups of four to six. Breaking a class into
    small groups provides more opportunities for students to interact with each other, think out loud, and see how
    other students' thinking processes operate all essential elements in developing new modes of critical thinking.
         In courses that regularly use a small group format, students might be asked to stay in the same small
    groups throughout the course. A colleague of mine, John, allows students to move around during the first two
    weeks, until they find a group they are comfortable with. John then asks them to stay in the same seat, with
    the same group, from that time on. This not only creates a comfortable setting for interaction but helps him
    learn students' names and faces.
    1. The primary purpose of desk rearrangement is _____.
    A. for the teacher to divide students into small groups
    B. to make it possible for students to interact with each other
    C. for the teacher to find out how students think
    D. to give students more opportunities to practice speaking
    2. Which of the following can best explain the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2?
    A. There is not much change in educational idea over the past hundred years.
    B. Critical thinking was encouraged even a century ago.
    C. College classrooms often remind people of their college life.
    D. A hundred years ago, desk arrangement in a classroom was quite different.
    3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
    A. Students are allowed to change groups throughout the course in John's class
    B. It's impossible for students to make up small groups in large lecture halls
    C. A comfortable environment leads to higher working efficiency
    D. New kinds of desks and chairs should be made
    4. The author mentioned John in the last paragraph in order to _____.
    A. create a comfortable setting for interaction
    B. introduce an approach of learning students' names and faces easily
    C. give an example that students stay in the same seat throughout the course
    D. describe a good seat-arrangement mode in courses with small group format

    Each year, 500 million people from 164 countries celebrate World Environment Day on 5 June． It may seem like there is not much that an individual can do to save the world, but there is． One of the first steps is to understand the problems and their solutions．

    Try to learn about your ecosystem, endangered animals and pollution． If you are well-informed, you can make better decisions about how to save energy and produce less waste． You can also learn how to be a better consumer and not buy products made from endangered animals or which have too much packaging, Also share your concerns with others and find ways to promote environmental education． Help educate people in your community about ways in which they can help protect the environment． The Earth is our only home． We should take good care of it．

    Recycle

    Make a list of all the things you can recycle at home and at school and start recycling． In some cases, you can sell the things you recycle． In others, you can turn unwanted items into something useful for another purpose, such as using old plastic bottles for growing plants． Most bottles and jars  contain at least 25% recycled glass． And recycling aluminium cans saves 95% of the energy needed to make alum nium from bauxite ore Recycling one ton of paper saves 17 trees, 26,000 litres of water, 1,700 litres of 011, 266 kilograms of air pollution and 2．3 cubic metres of rubbish dump space．

    Use less energy

    The easiest way to save energy is to cycle or walk whenever possible instead of using public transportation． At home and at school, you should only use electric lights and electrical appliances when you need them． There are many other less obvious ways of saving energy． For example, try to ask your mum to buy food which has been grown locally． Why? When people buy food from far away, it takes extra energy to package and ship it by boat, train, truck or plane．

    Save water

    You can save water by helping your Dad repair leaking pipes and toilets． Take short showers  instead of baths． Some waste water from baths can be used for other purposes, such as watering plants or washing outdoor spaces． It is important to help preserve the local water quality by not pouring  dangerous household chemicals down the drain or into the ground． Dispose of them properly．

    When many people in the west think of China, the animal that they think of is the dragon. For them, the dragon is an aggressive monster that breathes fire. Many popular legends tell how dragons have killed brave knights and eaten beautiful young girls.
    For Chinese people, however, the dragon is not an evil monster. It’s a cultural and spiritual symbol for prosperity and good luck. The dragon’s main task is to create harmony and bring rain. Dragons are celebrated in art and architecture, and of course the dragon dance is a very popular ritual (仪式).
    China isn’t the only country to have the dragon as its symbol. Wales in the UK, has a red dragon proudly displayed on its flag. Another country in the world with a dragon on its flag is Bhutan, a tiny country between China and India.

    Australia is famous for kangaroos, of course. The national rugby team is more commonly known as the Wallabies, a type of small kangaroo.The South African team is known as the Springboks, a type of African antelope. Likewise the New Zealanders, whether playing sports or not, are commonly known as kiwis. A kiwi is a native New Zealand bird that can’t fly.
    All countries are proud of their symbols, which they feel reflect national characteristics or the beauty and variety of their natural environments. Recently, a Shang hai professor claimed that using the dragon as a national symbol could make western countries have a negative view of China. But in an Internet survey 90% of Chinese people wanted to keep the dragon.

    You know how wonderful you are，and you know that others know how wonderful you are，but what do you do when admiration crosses over the line into jealousy？For most teens there will come a day when you realize that one of your friends is jealous and that this jealousy is hurting your friendship.When this happens it can seem like there is nothing that you can do，but the good news is that there is.Don't let jealousy spoil your relationships.Tackle it head on and you might be back to normal much sooner than you think.

    It can be hard to walk up to a friend and ask them what the problem is，but if you want to save your friendship you'll have to do just that.Don't approach them and ask why they are jealous of you (unless of course you want to appear totally conceited)，just take some time alone with them and let them know that you've been feeling like there's been something coming between you.If they refuse to respond，then use the opportunity to explain how you have been feeling.Chances are that something you say will strike a nerve and your friend will open up as well.

    When you figure out what is annoying your friend，ask him or her what (s)he thinks would make the situation better.If，for example，(s)he says that (s)he feels like (s)he doesn't get to spend any time with you because of your being off with your new friends from the swim team then maybe you could invite her along the next time or block off one day a week for just the two of you.Remember，though，that whatever solution you decide on should be a compromise.Don't limit your own talents or opportunities simply because your friend is unhappy.Try instead to include him or her in your new life and see how that works out.

    Even the best of friendships can be tinged by jealousy.This destructive emotion is rarely productive and can turn best friends into worst enemies.Before taking extreme action，chat with your jealous friend to see if the two of you can work out a compromise.If you can't，be prepared to know exactly how far you will go to keep your friend and how far you won't.
