What moved Gaylord Nelson to action was the 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill ()in Southem Califomia,the largest oil spill in the United States at that time.The spill proved to be an environmental nightmare as it had a strong impact on marine life,killing an estimated 3,500 seabirds, as well-as marine animals such as dolphins,elephant seals and sea lions.Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that period of time,Nelson found it was a right time to channel (the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection.He decided that it was time to educate the Americans on the need to protect the environment.Thus,Earth Day was born in 1970, and public environmental consciousness took center stage. On 22nd April 1970,millions of Americans took to the streets to demonstrate for a healthy, sustainable environment and thousands of students marched in protest at the terrible situation of the environment.Businesses were forced to follow environmental standards if they wanted to continue their operations.The year 1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more countries around the world.It helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro,bringing together many nations,for a joint effort towards protecting the environment.In 2009,the United Nations decided to officially set April 22 as Earth Day.For his role as the founder of Earth Day,Gaylord Nelson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom(1995),the highest honor given to civilians in the United States.We honor the man,as the fight for a cleaner environment continues. 28.What can we learn about Earth Day?

C.Considerate.D.Knowledgeable. Lonely?You're hardly alone.That's the finding of a new study.And that appears throughout industrial nations across the globe.The study linked rising loneliness to a greater use of smartphones and the Interet over the same years. Jean Twenge,a psychologist,took part in the study.Her team has found that since 2012,US teens have been spending less time together face to face. "Smartphones can help keep us connected with friends,"says Twenge."But they can also make people feel excluded ).Girls,especially,may feel this way.One reason may be that they like to post more photos and selfies than boys.Studies have shown that if those images don't get a lot of "likes".it can affect a teen's mental health. And there's"phubbing",a mixture of"phone'”and“snubbing(冷落)".It's that moment in which a friend or family member takes out a phone and keeps looking at it,paying no attention to everybody else.including you.Phubbing is one way that technology can affect you,even when you're not the one using it. The new study pulled its data from a survey.Some I million 15-and 16-year-old students from 37 countries took this survey in 2000,2003,2012,2015 and 2018.Its questions mostly dealt with education.But they also included six statements about loneliness,such as"I feel awkward and out of place in my school"Students could strongly disagree,disagree,agree or strongly agree with each statement. If technology causes loneliness,should we stop using it?"No,not at all,"argues Twenge. "Everybody of all ages is trying to figure out how we can best use these technologies and stay mentally healthy"Her advice is to "use your smartphone for what it's good for.Then put it away." That includes putting it away ovemnight-ideally in another room. r srenm 32.How do girls differ from boys in smartphone use? 7,8140 A.They prefer to post pictures with it.B.They depend on it to keep in touch..

So,you can imagine my displeasure when I learned what my dad had planned for our family vacation that year."This year,"my dad said,"we'll be doing something special.We're going camping!"His excitement was met with a disappointed sigh.It wasn't my dream vacation because mind was on my phone.I was so buried in the screen,in fact,that the first time I can remember truly looking up was when we drove across a bridge on the way to our campsite. I stared out the window and saw redwoods towering above us,their branches threatening to pierce (the blue sky.I saw a roaring river,with slivers of silky black water appearing between crashing white rapids.The ai blowing into the car from the open windows was hot.But none of that mattered to me.The reason I had looked up was for something far more serious:my phone no longer had service. The last hour of the drive was increasingly tense.My dad announced that he had chosen a campsite that had no cell service,and that my phone would be useless until we returned home.I would be trapped in the forest for four days with no way to contact the outside world!I went through the full cycle of teenage emotions during the first day of the trip.I raged.I bargained.I begged.I flip-flopped (from a depressive state to anger and back. I went to bed angrily that night.But when I awoke in the moming,something had changed. 注意：1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右： 2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 Instead of burying myself in my phone,I focused on something else:my surroundings.
