— It is too expensive. I can't __________ it.

Carl this outdoor activity with Katie.

    To protect the environment, China has put a ban(禁令) on thin plastic bag (plastic bag thinner than 0.025 mm). From June 1,2008, China stopped the production, sale and use of these plastic bags to the public.

    Plastic bags can cause "white pollution", because they can take 400-1,000 years to break down. They pollute the soil(土壤) and water. Plastic bags also cause a serious danger to animals. Animals often mistake plastic bags for food. Thousands of them die each year after eating plastic bags.

    So what kind of bags will be the best to use when we are shopping? Recently some students made their own shopping bags. Most students used old clothes to make their bags. They painted pictures like the Olympic rings on them. But Li Mei had a more traditional way to make her hag. She weaved(编织) a bamboo(竹子) basket. It was not an easy job. With her grandfather's help, Li Mei spent the whole afternoon making it.

    What can we do? Use environmentally friendly (环保的) shopping bags instead of plastic ones and try to recycle the ones we have.

Information Card

    假设你是李华，针对多个城市频繁出现的雾霾天气(haze)，请你给某英文报社的热点话题专栏写一篇短文，分析造成雾霾的原因，并号召人们采取行动来保护环境。

造成雾霾的原因要点提示：

1）汽车排放的有毒气体(poisonous gas)；

2）不遵守规则燃烧的垃圾；

3）来自化工厂(chemical plants)的烟和飞尘(flying dust)。

要求: 1）人们保护环境采取的行动至少列两条；

2）可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；

3）词数90左右，文章首尾已给出，不计入总词数。

    There has been frequent haze in the last few years in many cities. It's time for people to start paying attention to air pollution.

    Let's take action now!

    It's very important that we all recycle. In nature, everything can be1again. For example, when an animal dies, it becomes 2animal's food. Nothing is wasted. But humans have created things like plastic bags 3can't be broken down by nature. Our rubbish kills animals and 4water and soil. 5we continue making too much rubbish, the problem will only get worse. If nature can't reuse the rubbish, we must recycle6.

    We should clean up the rubbish we've made because nature can't.

    Recycling is also the right thing to do for another reason. The earth is rich in natural materials like water and trees,7these materials are not endless. We use up our natural materials much8than the earth is able to reproduce them. For example, each year we cut9more that 6,000 square miles of forest. But it takes about 25 years 10a new tree to grow.

    Recycling can help us save the earth, so let's take action right now.

In China, badminton everywhere.

As school students, we should .
