How to be a good tourist
We travel for work but also for fun and learning. New restaurants, galleries, temples and new architecture…These places are homes for people like us who live and work there. How would you want visitors to behave in your own home? Think about it. There are many ways of doing this without sacrificing our own holiday.
Do your homework. Guides will help you when you get to site, but is that the best place to go? Is it popular only because the one-day tourist can see it easily or because it is really a worthwhile place to visit? You’d better check it out.
Don’t go to your hotels for meals. Walk around, even if in the streets closest to your hotel. Eat in local restaurants .Talk to the locals. Learn a few in the local language and use them. You will surely get a smile from the hotel staff and street sellers .
Help preserve the sites. Most of the sites you visit may be visited by millions of people a year, so care needs to be taken to allow others to enjoy them as well. Some of these monuments are so old and fragile that they are sensitive to the touch of hands or bags and shows. This way, you don’t encourage the use of those plastic bags that fly all over many sites.
And here’s the big one—good manners are nearly universal. If that doesn’t sound like you, then give the world a break and stay home.

A．Experience the place.

B．Always have a cloth bag with you .

C．Read up on the places you want to visit.

D．Try to buy something from the local stores.

E.Good tourist is polite, positive and eco-sensitive.
F.We’vecleaned up after ourselves and taken only good memories.
G. If we are good tourists, wherever we go, we try to make it a little better because of our visit.

A. A shocking report
B. Solution to the terrifying result
C. What is global warming?
D. Many shocking things were found.
E. Greater danger of extinction
F. A careful analysis biologically

The earth is getting warmer. People burn coal, oil and gas and this produces carbon dioxide, methane (沼气) and nitrous oxide. These gases, called “greenhouse gases”, prevent the heat of the sun from leaving the earth’s upper atmosphere and this makes the earth warmer.

A few weeks ago a group of scientists produced a report about global warming and the natural world. They wanted to find out if global warming was dangerous for plants and animals. According to what they found, the scientists say that during the next 50 years about 25% of land animals and plants will become extinct. More than a million plant and animal species will be extinct by 2050.

More than 10% of all plants and animals will become extinct. It is too late to save many plants and animals because of the greenhouse gases that are already in the atmosphere. But the scientists say if we control greenhouse gases now, we could save many more plants and animals from extinction.

The scientists studied some regions of the world with a very rich biology. These were Europe, Australia, Central and South America, and South Africa. Their studies showed that species living in mountainous areas had a better chance of survival because they could move uphill, to get cooler. In flat areas, such as deserts, plants and animals would have to move a very long distance to get cooler, so they are in greater danger of extinction.

The scientists found that half of the 24 species of butterflies they studied in Australia would soon become extinct. 60% of the species in the Kruger National Park in South Africa would also die out, and more than 100% of the 300 South Africa plant species they studied would also become extinct. One of the plants in danger of extinction is the national flower of South Africa, the King Protea. They studied 163 tree species in the Cerrado region of Brazil and found that 70 would become extinct. Many of the plants and trees that live in the region live nowhere else in the world. In Mexico, they studied 1,870 species and found that more than 30% of these were in danger of extinction.

Tips on buying outdoor solar lights
As solar lighting is becoming useful for homes, many different such outdoor lights can now be found in supermarkets. Here are some helpful tips for customers.
Does your area receive enough direct lighting?
So you shouldn’ t even give it a thought if you live in an area that doesn’t get much sunlight. These lights need direct sunlight, or they just won’t work very well.
The expensive one usually means good quality. Choosing the cheapest ones will result in many problems. For once, it’s best to buy more expensive lights of high quality. At least you should know the difference between a $ 10 light and a $ 45 light.
Buy lights that require less installation(安装 ) .
Most solar lights are simply driven into the ground. Therefore, you shouldn’t deal with the difficulty in installing a system that involves anything more than that. You don’t need to buy lights that require half an hour each to plant into the ground because that’s just a waste of time.
Make sure the lights can store enough energy.
Different solar lights can store different amounts of energy. Therefore, you should choose lights that are able to store enough energy to last for a few hours or more, at least those that will last from nightfall throughout most of the night and part of the morning.

A．Without sunlight, solar lighting is useless.

B．Buy many solar lights instead of just one or two.

C．It means some will stay lit longer than the others.

D．Choose something a bit more expensive for once.

E. Solar lights are becoming more and more popular.
F. That doesn’ t mean you have to spend all your money.
G. They should take a few minutes each to get into the ground.

Change is scary. It can go hand in hand with the fear that we might hurt someone else if we think about ourselves. The truth is that you’re so much more courageous than you give yourself credit for and far stronger than you realize. Here are some ways that you can use to help yourself make the process of creating change more manageable.
Make change into small bite size pieces. Remember that as long as you attempt to take regular practice towards your goal, such as eating more healthily every day, or walking twenty minutes a day, you’re heading in the right direction to make changes.
From a habit of keeping a diary every day. Writing a journal every night before going to bed can effectively help you cope with the emotional impact of the change process. Go to grab a pen or pencil and remember a journal is not for being neat and tidy with good spelling.
Rest is essential to success. Have a rest and take timeout to build your energy. if we don’t give ourselves time to rest, we just end up burning out by the constant striving and worry. As we don’t have the energy to keep going, we have to give up!
Just accept it! I’m sorry to say that unless some people are really secure in themselves and truly happy in their own life, they’re never going to like your changes. This has nothing to do with whether they love you or not. They are just for self-preservation! Therefore, giving them a little time to adjust and get used to it.

A．No one else is going to like your changes.

B．Don’t try to eat the elephant in one sitting.

C．It is a step into the unknown.

D．Keep repeating your small steps over and over again.

E.It’s not being lazy to have timeout.
F.It’s a private place where you can speak out your inner thoughts.
G.Creating change is about building your character.
