Recycle Recycle means “change things into something else to be reused”. We throw tons of rubbish away each year, and we have to make a change.

After more than a century the Games returned to its hometown in 2004. When people hold the Olympic Games, they always make an emblem (徽章). The emblem of the Athens Olympic Games in 2004 was a white circle of the olive branch in the sky. Now Athens is developing a spirit of peace (和平). An officer said, “The world should be at peace. We hope the peace is not just for a short time. We would like the message from the Athens Olympic Games to help countries come together and solve their problems.” In 2008, the Olympic Games were held in China. And China made a seal (印章) as the emblem of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The emblem has a single Chinese character on a red seal and means “Chinese Seal—Dancing Beijing”. The running figure of the emblem shows the Olympics’ motto—Faster, Higher, Stronger. 21. What do people always make when they hold the Olympic Games? A. A picture. B. An emblem. C. A flag. D.

Take part in a park “clean up day”. Plant a tree. Join a group to work together to protect a river. Help sick people. Helping others can make you feel good. When you make sick people happy, you also feel happy. If you have some hobbies, find a way to do them all.

Repeat these three words daily: reduce, reuse and recycle. Reduce Reduce means “use less”. Do not waste things. It saves money and causes less pollution. Do not order more food than you can finish. Turn off the lights when you do not need them. Before you buy something new, think whether it is really necessary because maybe the old one is just as good! Reuse Reuse means “use again”. Use things for as long as possible. Look after them so that they will last. Repair them if possible. Do not throw them away and buy new ones. Do not use paper cups or paper bags. Recycle Recycle means “change things into something else to be reused”. We throw tons of rubbish away each year, and we have to make a change. Divide your rubbish into plastic, glass, paper and rubber(橡胶). Develop a recycling policy for the whole community. Buy products such as recycled paper to help save trees. 1、2题完成句子；3题简略回答问题；4题找出并写下全文的主题句；5题将划线句子翻译成汉语。 36.
