Things you can do to help protect the ocean
Stand only in the sandy areas. Rocky areas are covered with a thin layer of living plants and animals, including very young coral.
Enjoy watching fish, but do not feed them. Bread, peas, other human foods and human created fish foods can be harmful to fish.
Swim smoothly and calmly. That way you will be able to get closer to fish, and you won’t stir up sand that can make it harder to see them.
Pick up trash in the water or on the beach and place it in the rubbish bin. Plastic bags are often blown into the water by the wind. Sea turtles can mistake these plastic bags for jellyfish, their natural food, and eat them and get very sick or die.
Use waterproof sunscreen when going into the ocean. Sunscreen that is not waterproof washes off into the water and pollutes the water.
Do not take anything that belongs at the beach. Leave the rocks, shells, and sand there. Take only photos and memories away with you.

Dear John,
I am very upset and I need some help. You know I will finish college soon, and I have to decide about my future. I like the computer and I really want to work on it.
Last Sunday I asked my family for some advice. They had quite different ideas about my future! My father said I should go to university and study computer engineering. My mother thought I should get a job as a computer salesperson, so I could make a lot of money. My brother wanted to start a web site design company with me. My sister did poorly in computer science and she wanted me to teach her in her school. My uncle manages a famous software company. He hoped I could join his company. As you see, it is very difficult for me to decide which one is the best. What do you think? Write me soon.
Yours,
Jordan

On Saturday I went to the Natural History Museum in London to see the first London Ice Sculpting Festival. It was a really cold day, so I wrapped up in my ski jacket, ski hat and ski socks to fight off the cold wind.
The Ice Sculpting Festival had five teams from all over Europe carving(雕刻) really huge pieces of ice into their own shapes and designs. The theme they were given was “wildlife in the City” and they had been carving all day on Friday, so some shapes were beginning to appear.
I was invited by the organizers to see if I wanted to have a try at carving a small penguin out of a little piece of ice. There were lots of people trying to do this and I hoped that I would have more time than them, as it looked really hard, I was given as long time as I needed and got help from Piers, an ice sculptor at the Ice Box. He works at -7℃ most of the time!
Piers gave me gloves and the chisels. Then he told me to try to carve a bit of the ice with a chisel. It was softer than I thought it would be and Piers helped me learn to create shapes and curves. Making the shape look like a penguin took quite a long time and it was a really fat penguin with fat wings and a short beak, but kind of cute though!
I really enjoyed having a try at ice carving. Thank you to everyone at the Natural History Museum and Ice Rink, the Festival and The Ice Box. It was great fun!

A taboo(忌讳)is social action that not allowed. Every culture in the world has its own taboos. The breaking of a taboo sometimes makes people feel uncomfortable. I learned this through my own experience.
Last weekend, Wang Lin and I showed two foreigners around our city. Mr. Singh was from India and Mr. White was from the USA. When I held out my left hand to shake hands with him, Mr. Singh seemed to be unhappy. Mr. White, however, was quite casual. He said hello to me with a big smile and a wave of his hand.
In the evening, we stopped at a restaurant for dinner. I noticed that Mr. Singh didn’t touch the beef and Mr. White seemed not to like chickens’ claws(爪子). During the meal, Wang Lin said sorry to Mr. Singh and continued to explain that we didn’t know it was a taboo in India to shake one’s left hand. Mr. Singh explained that since oxen are sacred in India, people don’t eat beef
there. Mr. White joined in and said that it was not usual in the United States for people to eat chickens’claws. He went to say that Americans don’t usually get into each other’s personal space.
Isn’t it a good lesson to remember?

Traffic safety is one of the most important problems in today’s world. Since 1896, more than 35000000 people have died in traffic accidents. In 2002, 1200000 people died and 50000000 were injured in traffic accidents all over the world. Traffic accidents do harm to people.
In China, 109000 people died in traffic accidents in 2002, and nearly 99000 died in 2005. In the last 40 years, some rich countries like the US, Japan and those in West Europe did some things to improve traffic safety. They also had more doctors and fast cars to help people when traffic accidents happened. Now, 70% of the world’s cars are in these countries, but people died in traffic accidents 15% less there than in other countries. In 2005, for every 10000 cars on the road in China, 7.6 of the drivers died in traffic accidents. In the US the same number of cars had only 1.7 of the drivers died and in Germany, the number was 1.37.
It’s time for us to do something for the problem. The easiest thing for all of us is to follow the traffic rules!

One weekend last winter, I couldn’t think of anything to do. The weather was cold, and the sky was black. I felt as if I had already played every game and read every book. I had even cleaned my room!
I told Grandma I had nothing to do.
“Why don’t you try making a mobile?” Grandma said. She explained that a mobile is a moving piece of art. Anyone can make a mobile. Grandma gave me a book called Mobiles: Make One Today. I learned that a mobile is attached to a ceiling and that different things hang down from strings. When a breeze blows in through a window, the mobile will spin and move from side to side. Mobiles can be made up of anything, which means that stars, balloons, airplanes, and even cartoons can hang from the ceiling.
I decided to make a mobile of stars. First, I cut a big circle out of a cardboard. This would be the top of my mobile. Then, I cut eight stars out of construction paper. I colored them with markers. Next, I cut long pieces of string and glued one string to the back of each star. I made holes all around the circle and then tied a string with a star through each hole. When I held the
mobile up, each star was spinning around. I could not wait to hang my mobile from the ceiling in my room.

We set up some recycling bins around the club and wanted to encourage everyone to recycle. Also we decided to design some T-shirts too. Quite a few of us have been watching “Springwatch” on TV so we were very excited when Chris Packham came to visit us!
When Chris came to the club we did different activities. After lunch we did a trash pick and then weighed the bags of rubbish to see who had collected the most. It makes the club tidier and a safer place for wildlife.
We then went off to find things around the club and make a list of things that have an effect on the environment. Some of the things we listed were oil, which can pollute the beach and water, and wasting drinking water from taps and pipes. We are now going to keep on recycling and doing trash picks as well as encouraging people to put their rubbish in the recycling bins. There are also some other ideas of using rain water to wash off our boats instead of drinking water; this will be our next project.
