The Big Lottery is giving money to groups of teenagers between 14 and 19 who want to become active citizens. The teenagers who would like to help make the area you live in better,cleaner, safer and more friendly can actually get money for improving your local community (社区).We have $ 80,000 to give away. We are looking for young people to take part inschemes(规划) and projects near to where they live.

Here are a few easy things you could do to get started.
Meeting the neighbors Everybody needs good neighbors. Knock onpeople's door and find out what they would like improving in your area. Set a date for a meeting and then make some plans together. If you don't want to go round to their houses, then you could always put a note through their doors.
Neighborhood watch Neighborhood watch schemes are very popular in the UK. If you go away on holiday and leave your house, it's very nice to know that a neighbor is keeping an eye on it. It's a good way to make the area you live in safer. You could set one up easily and quickly.
Lending a hand There are often elderly people living in the neighborhood who may not be able to do the things that you can. Offer to do iheir shopping once a week, look after their garden for them or maybe walk their dog.
No littering Nobody likes picking up other people's rubbish, but a clean street can make all the difference. Take it in turns to go out once or twice a week and see what you can find. You never know, one day you might find something valuable.
Recycling Nearly two-thirds of your rubbish can be recycled. Some areas already provide places to people to recycle bottles, tins, plastic and paper. Find out if this is done in your neighborhood. Ifit's not, do something about it.

Yuan Longping is a Chinese agricultural scientist and educator.He is known for developing the first hybrid rice(杂交水稻).He was born in Beijing in 1930.He loved playing the erhu,swimming and motorcycling.He graduated from the Southwest Agriculture College in 1953.Then he began teaching at an agriculture school in Anjiang,Hunan Province.

In 1960,a very serious food shortage happened in China.A large number of people died of hunger and illnesses.Yuan Longping could hardly fall asleep at night.He thought it was time for him to do something for his country and people.He decided to find a way to solve the problem.Since then,he had devoted himself to the research of a new kind of rice.

In 1964,Yuan found a natural hybrid rice plant by accident.It had more advantages than others.He worked very hard with other scientists on it for many years.In 1973,the first hybrid rice appeared.It yielded (出产)20% more than that of common rice.Chinese people solved the food problem by their own efforts.

But Yuan Longping didn't stop.He kept on his research.Now the "Super Rice" yields over 1,100 kilograms each mu.Chinese people have enough rice to eat,and hybrid rice has also brought good news to the peoples of many other countries all over the world.

The human brain weighs about 1.4 kilograms,but it can hold much more information than most computers.However,there is another difference between human brains and computers.Computers don't forget information they are given,but humans often do.No one remembers everything,and luckily we don't usually have to.But everyone can improve their memories if they want to.Here are some suggestions.

Try to use new information immediately.For example,if you meet someone who says "Hi!I'm Carlos",don't just say "hello".Repeat the person's name and say "Hello,Carlos".

Break a big number into small parts.For example,it's hard to remember 109244153.But if you break it into three parts﹣109/244/153,it will become easier.

Write down what you need to remember over and over again.This will help you keep it in mind longer,especially when memorizing formulas or facts.

Always review information.If you bring what you've learned back to your mind,it'll become easier to remember.For example,before you go to sleep,it's a good idea to review the new things you've learned that day.

Discuss things with friends.It is always easier to remember things through discussions.You can have a discussion about what's right or wrong,and it will lead to the right answer.
