Keep More Food on the Table
It's said that in some parts of the world,people are facing the problem of hunger.So what can we do to help them?Here are some suggestions:
Cook from the fridge
Start with the fresh foods.If you have some in the fridge,use them first.Make a meal with what you have got instead of running out to the supermarket for something else.
Learn to read the labels
"Best﹣before"and"use﹣by"dates are more important.Learn to know the different periods of foods and know how to cook them in the right way.For example,black bananas are proper for baking,fresh vegetables are good in soups,and bread that is not fresh can be turned into small pieces.
Use the freezer(冷冻室)
The freezer can keep foods fresh until you are ready to cook them,and store the cooked foods until you're ready to eat them.It's also the best place for the remaining food.Mark the date of the food nearby,so it's easy to find the foods you need to eat first and you will never leave them there for too long.
Shop with a list
Plan meals ahead of time so that you know exactly what to buy.Doing this helps reduce food waste because it's possible to buy too much of a certain food and then forget to eat or cook it later.

A Cloud of Hope and Danger
A small cloud floats through the air in a hospital operating room (手术室). In the room a patient, suffering from cancer, lies on a table. The cloud surrounds(包围) the patient, (1) her body and filling her lungs(肺). The cloud is not smoke or steam. It is made of millions of microscopic robots called nano﹣robots(纳米机器人). These tiny robots move from cell(细胞) to cell in the(2) body, destroying the cancer.
Fighting cancer with nano﹣robots is only an idea today,(3) scientists say that it could be possible in the future. Using nano﹣robots for good purposes such as fighting disease or repairing the environment may be the(4) to many of today's problems.
However, nano﹣robots could be a(5) risk as well. Since nano﹣robots are so tiny, they will have to work in large teams of many thousands to many millions. For this reason, nano﹣robots will have to be programmed to build(6) . Scientists will not have the ability to build millions of nano﹣robots one by one.
This(7) to reproduce is making some scientists worried. What if something goes wrong in the programming? Quite a lot of crazy nan﹣orobots would be far(8) than any disease. Some people think that if they get out of control, nan﹣orobots could destroy the Earth.
What should be done? Should we continue(9) nan﹣orobots or should we search for other methods? This is one of the many difficult(10) that we have to make in the future.
May 12th, 2018is the 10th anniversary of Wenchuan Earthquake. Many of us may have remembered what happened on May 12th, 2008. The devastating 7.9magnitude Sichuan earthquake which killed about 90,000people in western China. It has been concerned(担忧) widely about what we can do when we encounter (遭遇) certain accidents. Therefore, how to deal with accidents in our daily life.
Earthquake is the first thing that I am going to talk about. Firstly, you need to rush to open space quickly if you are in a lower floor. Meanwhile, you should avoid trees or wires around you. Then you just need to wait for someone to save you. On the contrary(相反), you need to stay in a corner which seems firm if you are in a higher building.(1) You should keep your body safe and wait for others to help you.
When it comes to fire, you need to distinguish the root of the fire and find out security exits.(2) Then you should crawl (爬行) on the floor. Do not use elevators or any electronic equipment.
Another accident is drowning. Every summer, about 5000kids die because of swimming alone in the river or the lake. Experts say that we have the more possibility of drowning if we struggle as best as we can or put our hands up. So what we should do is: " (3) " The summer holiday is coming, my dear friend, take care of yourself.
In a word, all kinds of accidents will happen in our daily life.(4) We should believe that the rate of danger can be minimized (机会少) and we can not only get chance to save ourselves but also help more others if we learn about how to deal with them in the first place.
A. The most necessary thing is to keep calm and find the exact way. B. Do not be a jumper! C. To take a deep breath, lie on the water and wait for others to save us. D. The best way is to cover your nose and mouth with a wet towel. |
If anyone can be called a scientific giant after Albert Einstein, that person must be Stephen Hawking. He was born in Oxford, England on January 8th, 1942. What a pity! On March 14, 2018, the world﹣famous British scientist(1) in Cambridge, UK.
After leaving high school, Hawking went first to Oxford University (2) he studied physics and then went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology (宇宙学). As he himself admits, he didn't work hard. He was a very lazy student, and did very(3) __ work. However, he enjoyed thinking everything around him, especially the universe. Today, he is called the King of the Universe.
It was at the age of 21that Hawking first(4) something was wrong with him. He started to bump into things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his mother was so worried that she(5) him see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came back. He(6) to have motor neuron disease (运动神经元病), an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move (7) the help of a machine. Doctors said they had no ways to help him. He might die before 23.
(8) , Hawking became very depressed. After a while, though, he began to see his life in a different way. As he later wrote, "After my illness was diagnosed (诊断), I was very(9) with life. There had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile (值得做的) things I could do." Then Hawking got married and found a job at Cambridge University as a professor. We strongly believe that his story shows that(10) , how bad their situation is, should lose hope. "Life is not fair." He once said. "You just have to do the best you can in your own situation."
