In Beijing, it's certainly popular to talk about living a low-carbon(低碳的)life. However, it's more easily said than done. But the Chinese capital city is ready to lead the way to a low-carbon city.
Xizhimen Station is one of the busiest subway stations in Beijing, because three lines meet at this point and many people need to get off if they want to change to another line. But passengens have to walk a long way if they want to move from one to anther.
A person said, “ it's difficult to change lines here. You need walk five to ten minutes.” Another said, “We would like to use this greener way of transportation, but it's just not convenient.”
And this is just one small part of the problem for the Beijing government(政府), if it wants to be a truly low-carbon city. Building a low-carbon city isn't an easy task and it will take a long time. I believe that once the plan is complete, more policies(政策) will come out to support(支持)this project. The government has made its plans for a low-carbon city known to the public in March. But people will see changes in several years.Beijing will lead the way to a low-carbon city.
If pelple want to change lines at Xizhimen Station, they have to walk at least ten minutes.
Taking the subway is more helpful to the environment.
Transportation is the only problem for Beijing to become a low-carbon city.
Pelple live in Beijing have learned the groernment's plans for a low-carbon city.
Halloween falls on October 31st. It is one of the most favourite holidays for children in the USA. People dress up in costumes (化妆服装) like a witch (巫婆), a ghost (鬼)or a skeleton (枯髅). The children go to houses to say “Trick or treat!” Long ago, if a child was not good, he or she would get a trick like having a stone in his or her bag instead of some candy. Nowdays, no one gets tricks. All the children receive lots and lots of candy. Parties are also popular in the evening. People go to parties in costumes and play different games.

A rabbit is running into its hole. You may ask, “What happened?”
Well, when a rabbit sees something dangerous, it runs away. Its tail moves up and down as it runs. When other rabbits see this tail moving up and down, they run too. They know that there is danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal.
Many other animals use this kind of language. When a bee found some food, it goes back to his home. It cannot tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air. This tells the bees where the food is.
Some animals say things by making sounds. A dog barks, for example, when a stranger
comes near. A cat purrs (发出呼噜呼噜的声音)when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning.
But human beings have something that no animals have –-- a large number of words about things, actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other information, to tell or inform other people what is in our mind or how we feel. By writing words down we can remind ourselves of the things what have happened, or send messages to people far away. No animals can do this. No animals has the wonderful power of language.
No one knows how man learned to make words. Somehow he learned to make them. As centuries went by, he made more and more new words. This is what we mean by language. People living in different countries made different kinds of words. Today there are about fifteen hundred different languages in the world. A very large English dictionary, for example, contains four or five hundred thousand words. But we do not know all these. The words we know are called vocabulary. We should try to make our vocabulary larger. Read as many books as possible. When we meet a new word, look it up in the dictionary. A dictionary is the Most useful book.

Long, long ago people made fires from lightening (闪电). But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightening. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing (摩擦). They made a hole on a piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.
A years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.
