That something was a dog we named Baci. My wife, Susan, and daughter Jenna had been looking for a dog. I was not as enthusiastic, but they insisted. On July 26, 2007, Baci arrived in our lives from a pet store.
That night, when I came home from work, Jenna handed me this small brown-colored ball of hair. I held Baci on my chest, and the first thing he did was kiss my face. It was love at first doggy kiss, with many more to follow.
Suddenly the air of the house changed. Bad liked to take walks around the lake and take a ride in the car. He would put his ball in my lap and wait for me to throw it. Then he would chase down the ball and repeat the game. Baci was not a perfect dog. He would go through the garbage and tore up paper. He was not friendly in public, either with dogs or people. But Baci gave us unconditional love. When we came home, he would come to the door wagging his tail happy to see us.
Unfortunately, as Baci approached his 10th birthday, his health began to fail. I had hoped that we would have more time together, but it appears that our days with Baci are coming to a close.

Looking fashionable feels good. However, did you know that doing so could be extremely bad for the planet?
Making clothes requires lots of energy. For example, cotton fields have to be watered. Jeans must be dyed (染色) and then dried. According to scientists, making 1 kilogram of clothes produces 23 kilograms of greenhouse gases on average.
However, clothes are spending less time in shops and at homes than ever. Consumers (消费者) today keep almost every article of clothing only half as long as they did 15 years ago. That causes a large amount of waste.
Some clothing companies and designers have realized this problem. H & M, for example, was the world’s largest buyer of “better cotton” last year. The cotton needs less water to grow. It also requires fewer pesticides (农药). The Swedish brand has also stopped using a chemical that pollutes the environment when making waterproof (防水的) clothes. Nike, meanwhile, has invented a new method of making shoes. It reduces waste by 60 percent compared with traditional cutting and sewing.
More long lasting clothes could help, too. Tom Cridland is a British designer. The clothes that he designs all go through a special treatment. Cridland says they can last more than 30 years.
Unfortunately, not all clothing companies and designers, think they should be responsible for the environment. Some companies do not care about their carbon footprint at all.
What can we do? In some western schools, students are encouraged to fix their jackets and trousers. Clothing companies there send vans to campuses to help them do it. Another solution is to think twice the next time we buy new clothes. Some clothes may not look very fashionable, but they could be good for our planet.

A. “Better cotton” can grow without water.
B. “Better cotton” grows faster than traditional cotton.
C. “Better cotton” is more environmentally friendly.
D. “Better cotton” is more productive than traditional cotton.
3.In order to protect the environment, what have some clothing companies and designers been doing?
① Using new material.
② Helping students mend clothes.
③ Measuring their carbon footprint.
④ Designing clothes that can last longer.
A. ①②③ B. ①②④

They aren’t great artists like Leonardo da Vinci or Vincent van Gogh, but their paintings are just as popular on Chinese social media, with millions of Chinese people willing to pay for them.
The 36 works were painted by ordinary Chinese people who live with autism (自闭症) or cerebral palsy (脑瘫), aged from their early teens to late thirties. They all studied art at World of Art Brut Culture (WABC), which is a Shanghai-based non-profit organization (非贏利组织) for art education. The project was started by WABC and supported by the Tencent Charitable Foundation. Users could buy a digital copy of each painting by donating (捐赠) 1 yuan or more. By Aug 29, donations totaled more than 15 million yuan, with about 5.8 million people participating (参与).
“The paintings by these autistic kids and adults are beautiful: the style is similar to that of the Dutch artist Van Gogh. I’m really impressed by their talent,” Feng Li, a customer service officer in Shanghai, told the South China Morning Post.
However, the popular campaign also led to certain questions.
Li Laoxi, an experienced special education teacher in Hangzhou, said that based on his experience, people with autism could only draw a few lines or fill in colors under the guidance of their trainers. “Maybe there are some geniuses out there, but I’ve never met them”. Others questioned where the money would go, as the donations went to WABC instead of the painters. In response to these concerns, Miao Shiming, founder of WABC, said the money would be used to employ art teachers, buy supplies, and rent facilities. Meanwhile, Tencent said that all donation information would be open to the public.

B. Because he doubted about the painting abilities of autistic people.
C. Because he didn’t trust the organization, WABC.
