Driving a car or 3.(use) electricity is not wrong. We just have to be smart about it. Some people use less energy by carpooling. For example, four people can ride together in one car instead of driving four cars to work. Whenever we use electricity, we put greenhouse gases (气体) into the air.

If you ever wanted to have insight (领悟) into how you can succeed in school, you’re in luck. Here are some tips to help you succeed this school year. They are provided by teachers and administrators (管理者) who work in schools on Long Island, New York, the US.
Use a calendar or chart. “Hang a calendar on your refrigerator”, said Margarita a teacher from Jackson Avenue School. She suggested writing down special assignments, birthdays, events and activities to help you remember. You can also draw a heart or other shapes on the joyful days you have spent
A book is a treat. Visit the bookstore or library every few weeks to find a new book to read on your own, recommended Lori, a teacher at Summit Lane School. “The more kids get excited about reading on their own, the more their self-esteem (自信) will rise. They’ll also be better equipped to deal with challenging homework assignments.” The ability of finishing reading a book is acquired by practising reading before one becomes a grown-up.
Unplug for success. “Families should have a no-electronics (电子产品) period where everyone turns off their devices (设备),” said Angela English teacher at Wisdom Lane Middle School. “This way family members can spend time together playing games. It’s amazing how you can reconnect with yourself and others when you're not distracted by technology.” Not to mention that it can also do good to your neck, shoulders and spine.
Stay current. “Stay up-to-date on current events,” said Matthew Crichton, a social studies teacher in New York. “Take a current events article and look at the history of the event. Knowing more about the world benefits a lot.”

The Science magazine reported that scientists had successfully grown meat in their laboratory by November, 2018. The news aroused heated discussion among the public. Is the meat safe? Is it any different? Why do we have to grow meat in a lab? People have tons of questions about this. And the scientists said that the lab-grown meat is produced when cells from animals are grown under lab conditions. It isn't like plant-based meat substitutes (替代品) made from vegetable proteins (蛋白质), since cell-based meat is grown from actual animal cells. This means that it is an animal product, so not suitable for vegetarians.
Is cell-cultured meat the same as ordinary meat? The muscle fibers (纤维) produced in the lab are the same as those found in steak, said leading researchers in this technology at Maastricht University in The Netherlands. But they pointed out that to get the same nutrient. (营养物) content that is found in red meat, they need to make some changes to the procedure. Scientists say they are also looking into changing the type of fat in lab-grown meat, for example.
Some people have concerns with growing meat in the lab. Some say this method of meat production would result in less land and water use. Others argue that growing meat in the lab would influence the environment more negatively than our traditional way of raising cattle. It would take massive amounts of energy resources to produce meat in this way, they say.
Some groups have petitioned (请求) the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to better define the term “meat”. They want to know if we are buying the traditionally produced type or the cultured variety. Hopefully we will see some labeling guidelines on these products before they show up in grocery stores. And that may be a few years away. Regulatory issues and cost - the first lab-grown hamburger patty (肉饼) cost $330,000 (2274,900 yuan) - could delay the arrival of cultured meat.
1.It’s reported that the scientists have successfully ______ in their lab in November.
A.grown meat B.eaten meat
C.got nutrient D.made a hamburger patty
2.According to the passage, the lab-grown meat ______.
A.is the same as ordinary meat
B.has the same muscle fibers as those in pork
C.has the same nutrient content as that in red meat
D.will perhaps have different types of fat
3.From the last paragraph, we can know ______.
A.the US FDA feels it necessary to label different kinds of meat
B.grocery stores have already been selling cultured meat to the public
C.it's for sure that no one will buy cultured meat in the future
D.cultured meat will meet challenge because of regulatory issues and cost
Oink! The Year of the Pig is coming. How much do you know about pigs? Do you like them? Many people don’t because they believe that pigs are naturally fat, lazy and dirty. But are any of those things true?
It is true that pigs are fat. They eat a lot. But they are useful to us. We get more than just pork from pigs. We can use their skin to make shoes. We can use their hair to make brushes. Pigs also provide us with ingredients for drugs like insulin (胰岛素). Insulin can treat diabetes (糖尿病)
People sometimes say, “You are as stupid as a pig.” But pigs are not stupid. In fact, pigs are one of the 10 smartest animals. They have a good memory and can tell different shapes apart. Many experts think pigs are easier to train than dogs or cats. In France, people teach pigs to find truffles (松露). With their good sense of smell they can find truffles even faster than dogs.
When you see pigs, they are usually in dirty water or mud. That’s because pigs have no sweat glands (汗腺). On hot days, they have to cool themselves in water or mud. This keeps insects of them as well. Mud can also protect their skin from sunburns.
These stereotypes about pigs often make us hold a negative view about the animal. For example, if someone eats a lot, we say that they have “pigged out”. If someone’s room is very mess, we might say his or her room looks like a pigsty (猪圈).
But people in ancient China really liked pigs. People thought the pig’s big head and ears were a symbol of good luck. If someone had a round and chubby (胖乎乎的) face, he or she was thought to be blessed (有福气的). People also believed the animal stood for wealth, as humans use every part of the pig. Piggy banks are a symbol of this. Most children have a piggy bank that they can use to save money.

A.make clothes. B.make insulin. C.make shoes D.make brushes

A.fixed ideas B.feelings C.mistakes D.descriptions
4.Why did the people in ancient China like pigs?
A.People thought the pig’s big head and ears were a symbol of good luck
B.People believed the animal stood for health.
C.People knew pigs were one of the 10 smartest animals.
