A camp built by students and volunteers spreads over Southern Methodist University(SMU). The affordable 21 are designed to be used by the poor as well as survivors of war and natural disasters.
“By the time 2020, there’s going to be about 1.7 billion people living in slums(贫民窟) so we would like to 22 change,” says Stephanie Hunt, co-founder of the Hunt Institute for Engineering and Humanities at SMU. The institute, which 23 build the village on SMU’s campus, was established to solve problem of the poor in the United States and around the world through engineering, and the free 24 .
The goal is not just to 25 lives, but to change the victims’ lives. The Institute hopes some entrepreneurs(企业家) might program and 26 some money with these ideas. One of the structures in the SMU village was built with bricks made 27 from recycled plastic bags.
They’re 28 together with heavy wires. Harvey Lacey, father of two college-aged sons, including one here at SUM, heard about this project and 29 his invention. It’s a heavy-duty, hand-crank compactor(手动压缩机)that anybody can use to form the big bricks he calls Ubuntu Blox.
“The advantages are that these 30 weigh less than two pounds. They’re very, very 31 These things can go for many generations of housing, ”says Lacey, who is 32 the design. Anybody can follow his online plans to 33 the compactor that turns plastic bags into bricks.
On this warm day, it’s 34 inside the Ubuntu Blox hut, thanks 35 to the thick plastic insulation(绝缘). Kenyan 36 Ronald Omyonga, visiting the global village before returning to his native Africa, says his country is full of these recyclable bags. With Lacey’s design, he says that litter could be transformed into 37 housing. He dreams of other 38 too.
“Look at the Harvey Lacey hut, as a means of creating 39 ,”says Omyonga.“Leaning the environment, and turning 40 into something that can form houses, not just for the poor.”

A school teacher decided to let her class play a game. The teacher told each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag containing a few 16 . Each tomato will be given a name of a person that the child 17 , so the number of tomatoes that a child will put in the plastic bag will depend on the number of people the child hates.
So when the day came, every 18 brought some tomatoes. Some had two; some three while some up to five tomatoes. The teacher then told the children to 19 with them the tomatoes in the plastic 20 wherever they go.
Days after days passed by, and the children started to complain due to the 21 smell let out by the rotten tomatoes. Besides, those having more tomatoes had to carry 22 bags. After 1 week, the children were relieved because the game had finally ended.
The teacher asked: “How did you 23 while carrying the tomatoes with you for 1 24 ?”
The children let out their frustrations and started 25 of the trouble that they had to go through having to carry the heavy and 26 tomatoes wherever they go.
Then the teacher told them the hidden meaning behind the 27 .
“This is exactly the 28 when you carry your hatred(憎恨) for somebody inside your heart. The unpleasant smell of hatred will pollute your 29 and you will carry it with you wherever you go. If you cannot tolerate the smell of rotten tomatoes for just 1 week, can you imagine what is it like to have the smell of hatred in your heart for your lifetime?”
So 30 others is that best attitude to take!
