Fashion isn’t very environmentally-friendly because it makes people buy things they don’t need, just because they’re new. We want to take care of the environment, we don’t want to pollute the air and we don’t want to waste energy and resources. But we also want to be fashionable. How can we buy fashionable clothes and protect the environment?
Old styles are fashionable again, so one way is to buy second-hand clothes — recycled clothes. Another way is to buy’ fair trade clothes. These clothes are either recycled or made in a ’ way that protects the environment. They also protect the people who make the clothes.
Surprisingly, white cotton is one of the least environmentally-friendly crops of all. To protect the cotton, the growers use chemicals that pollute water, make farm workers ill and kill wildlife. New materials, such as hemp and bamboo, grow quickly and are more environmentally-friendly. These materials are very soft, and look fantastic. The best materials are coloured using natural dyes, made from plants.
Environmentally-friendly clothes are practical but until now they were often dull. Now fashion-designers are working with these materials and the clothes are beautiful as well. So now we can buy fashionable clothes that are also environmentally-friendly.
Why do people often buy things they don’t need? Because_.

A.new things can be more comfortable

C.people are richer than before now
D.people care about the environment

Long, Long, long ago, there lived a very rich and strong king. All the people in the country were afraid of him. But was he happy? No, he was always ill and unhappy. The doctors in his country could not cure (治愈) him. He was so angry with them that he cut off their heads. One day, two famous doctors from another country came to see him. The king said to them, “If you can cure me and make me happy, I’ll give you a lot of gold.” The first doctor examined(检查) the king. He found nothing wrong with him. “Oh, king, you are very well,” said the doctor. “You only think you are ill and that makes you unhappy. ” The king was very angry when he heard this. He told his soldiers to cut off the doctor’s head. The second doctor knew he had to be careful. “Oh, king, you’ll be all right if you find a happy man and wear his shoes,” he said. The king was satisfied with(对…感到满意) his words and said that the doctor was clever(聪明的). Then he gave the doctor a bag of gold. The king asked hundreds of people if they were always happy.
