Smog is one of the hot subjects these years. It is bad to people's health. The most terrible smog lasted for about a week in February， 2014. It covered 15 percent of the land in northern and central China.
Now， more and more people in China have realized the importance of protecting the environment. They try to save energy by walking or riding to work in their daily life. Cities including Beijing and Shanghai have taken action by reducing the number of cars and closing heavily polluting factories.
Beijing is heavily polluted， so it's not easy to see blue skies there. But during the APEC summit (亚太经合会议峰会）in November last year， Beijing saw blue skies for a few days. People happily call the "APEC blue”. "I hope the APEC blue will last， and I believe it will， because China have taken action to reduce pollution." said President Xi Jinping.
The two large countries， China and the USA， produce about 45 percent of the world's greenhouse gases(温室气体）On November 12， Presidents Xi Jinping and Obama announced(宣布) that both countries would work together to cut down CO2 emissions（二氧化碳的排放）．The goal needs everyone's effort.

Good morning， boys and girl. Today I’ll talk about going online.
We know that there are too many net bars around us. The Internet can make our lives interesting and enjoyable. Many of us like going online very much because we can learn how to use the computer. We can learn English and read some newspapers and magazines to know more information around us. It can make us clever in playing computer games. Also we can send e-mails to our friends quickly. It can help us contact(联络，联系) people from all over the world.
But some students spend too much time in playing computer games and some stay in the net bars all day and all night. Some girls even get to have boyfriends or some boys get to have girlfriends online. They write too many letters to each other. It takes them too much time to chat online so they do worse in their lessons and they don’t study well any more.
I think we mustn’t get online when it is time for us to study. We can do it in summer or winter holidays. I think we should get online with our teachers or parents.
At the same time， if we have lots of free time， we can do some activities after class. We usually have activities from 4:50 to 5:50 in the afternoon. You can play basketball or football. We also have some interest groups in school， such as drawing， singing and dancing. We can go to the English corner on Monday afternoon. We hope we can spend more time on our subjects or on such activities that we can learn a lot from and less time on the Internet.

You probably know you should say” please” and “thank you ” at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners?
Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually， when you play the music loud on an MP3 player， other people can’t hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. No one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears， so even if you are alone when listening to our MP3 player， you shouldn’t turned it up.
Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 player off and put it away. Libraries and schools don’t allow MP3 players. There are other places， like museums， that don’t have rules， but it would be rude to have your MP3 player on.. Why would you listen to music at a play， a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came.
Take One Out! If you are listening to your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would be polite to take out one earphone， tell him the way， and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it’s not for you.
It’s Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example， some people can listen to music on their MP3 Players when read books， while others think it is boring. In cases like this， you need to do what seems right for you.

Teahouses(茶馆) in Chengdu
There is a saying， “China has the best teahouses in the world and Chengdu has the best teahouses in China.” Chengdu has not only many teahouses but also the special ways of serving and drinking tea.
As soon as the visitors come into the teahouses， the waiters or waitresses will greet them with teapots and cups in their hands. The cups often have special covers and saucers(茶碟). The covers can keep the water warm.
People who go to the teahouses are not all thirsty. Retired(退休)people pay a little money to the teahouses and then sit there all day long to chat with others. Sometimes， people have parties in the teahouses. They eat fruit and sunflower seeds(瓜子)while they chat and return home when they are tired.
Teahouses are also good places for people to talk about businesses. People can tell the stories and enjoy Sichuan Opera. Sometimes when people have a quarrel(争吵)， a mediator(调解员)will bring them to the teahouse. After their problem is worked out， the person who is wrong will pay for the tea. It is interesting that as soon as the quarrelers come into the teahouse and sit down to drink tea， they have almost calmed down. With the help of the mediator， their problems can be easily worked out then. Maybe we can say the teahouses have some special social functions(功能).
