Recently scientists are planning to make the world's first machine to clean up a lot of ocean plastic(塑料). The idea of the machine came from a teenager. This summer scientists will move the machine to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch between Hawaii and California. It will be humans’ first ever attempt to clean up the patch. Scientists believe the machine should be able to collect half of the plastic rubbish there in five years. Research has found that the Great Pacific Garbage Patch is more than 1,600,000 square kilometers— more than twice the size of France, and contains about 80,000 tons of plastic. Most of it is made up of“ghost gear”— parts of abandoned and lost fishing gear, such as net s and ropes. The ghost gear mainly comes from fishing ships. The ghost gear kills more than 100,000 whales, dolphins and seals each year, according to scientific surveys. Scientists have found pieces of plastic in the stomachs of some sea animals. These sea animals usually regard plastic as food and eat a lot of it. Then many of them die because they are not feeding properly. In the past few weeks, scientists have been busy making this special machine. They wish it would play a role in protecting the ocean environment as soon as possible. ( )1.

It is a seven-day festival that begins on December 26 and lasts until January 1. The holiday of Kwanzaa was created by Dr Maulana Karenga in 1966 during the civil rights movement in the United States. This was a time of great struggle for African Americans. Dr Karenga wanted to create a celebration that would bring African Americans together by remembering their culture. Karenga used the harvest festivals of Africa as a model for his new holiday. He named this holiday“Kwanzaa”, which means“first fruits” in the African language of Swahili. However, Dr Karenga added another“a” to the spelling so the word would have seven letters. This was because of the seven guiding principles of the festival. The traditional colors of Kwanzaa are black, red and green, which are the colors of the African flag. Black is the people, red is their struggle, and green is the hope for the future. Each evening of the seven-day festival a family member lights a candle in a special candle holder and discusses one of the seven principles of Kwanzaa. On the first days of Kwanzaa the black candle is lit. The black candle represents the first principle. On the second day, the black candle is lit again, as well as the farthest red candle on the left. The next day, the black candle is lit, then the farthest left red, and then the farthest right green candle. On the fifth day, the black candle is lit, then the farthest left red, the farthest right green, the next red and then the next green candle. On the sixth day, the black candle is lit, then the farthest left red, the farthest right green, the next red, the next green and then the final red candle. On the evening of December 31, family and friends get together to enjoy a large dinner. The last day of Kwanzaa is a time of gift giving. Since its beginning in 1966, Kwanzaa has been celebrated by many people in the world. The holiday is celebrated in homes, community centers, schools, and places of work.
