Have you imagined that planting trees can make a big difference? People say that one man can't make a difference, but Abdul Samad Sheikh, a 60-year-old rickshaw (人力车) driver from Bangladesh, has proved that doing a small thing over a long period of time can mean very much. He has planted at least one tree every day since he was 12 years old, which means that he has so far planted a small forest of over 17,500 trees. Imagine if everyone followed his example.
单元过关检测
Abdul has worked as a rickshaw driver for most of his life. He makes a little money from his job, which is only enough to put food on the table for his family, but he somehow tries to also buy at least one tree every day. He considers it his duty to the world. Mostly he plants them on government land so nobody can cut them down later. He also waters them, and if he sees anyone cutting a tree, he will blame them.
单元过关检测
Abdul, his wife Jorna, and four of their children live in two old houses, on a piece of land that is owned by the Faridpur deputy commissioner's office. They have no land of their own. Sometimes, Jorna scolds him for it but he doesn't care. Abdul's 30-year-old son, Kutub Uddin, has never told his father not to plant trees, because he thinks his father does a good thing for society.
Abdul's neighbours all know about his daily habit, and praise his work. Whoever can ask anything of him, he will do his best to help. Therefore, Abdul is loved by neighbours.

For his efforts, Abdul Samad Sheikh was honoured by The Daily Star, and given $1,253 to help him build a better home for his family. The Daily Star wished everyone to follow his example, and protect the environment.
“I can't do it alone. I need the help of you all,” Abdul said.

Going to work on a couple of eggs might be the way forward if you want to lose weight. According to research from the Rochester Centre for Obesity in America, eating eggs for breakfast can help to limit your calorie intake throughout the rest of the day, by more than 400 calories.
单元过关检测
In the study, 30 overweight women were asked to eat an egg-based breakfast (2 eggs) and 30 overweight women were asked to eat a bread-based breakfast. Two kinds of breakfast contain the same amount of calories and almost the same levels of protein (蛋白质). The researchers recorded the women's eating habits and found that just before lunch, the women who had eaten eggs for breakfast felt less hungry and ate a smaller lunch as a result.
单元过关检测
Researchers pointed out that certain foods lead to a greater sense of being full. An egg is an example of such food that has a 50% greater satiety index (指数) compared to white bread or ready-to-eat breakfast porridge. This study suggests that eating eggs for breakfast makes you feel fuller for longer so that you eat less at your next few meals. Therefore, if you're trying to lose weight as it means, you may find it easier to cut calories without feeling hungry.
单元过关检测
Eggs are packed with all kinds of nutrients but contain just 85 calories each. Old advice to limit eggs to just a few each week has also been given up. According to the Food Standards Agency, there's now no limit to the number of eggs you can eat in a week as part of a healthy balanced diet. If you feel like starting the day with eggs, we suggest you avoid frying them and eat them with wholemeal toast and a small glass of vitamin C-rich unsweetened orange juice, which will help the body make the best use of the iron in the eggs.

A.A taste of food. B.A feeling of pride.
C.A state of hunger. D.A sense of being full.
解析:词义猜测题。根据第三段前两句可知,研究人员指出一些食物会让人产生更强的饱腹感,鸡蛋的饱腹指数比白面包或即食早餐粥高出50%。由此可知,satiety与前面的sense of being full为同义表达,意为“满足、饱足”。

One might expect that the ever-growing demands of the tourist trade would bring nothing but good for the countries that receive the holidaymakers. Indeed, a rosy picture is painted for the long-term future of the holiday industry. Every month sees the building of a new hotel somewhere. And every month another rock-bound Pacific island is advertised as the “last paradise (天堂) on earth”.

However, the scale and speed of this growth seem set to destroy the very things tourists want to enjoy. In those countries where there was a rush to make quick money out of seaside holidays, over-crowded beaches and the concrete jungle of endless hotels have begun to lose their appeal.

Those countries with little experience of tourism can suffer most. In recent years, Nepal set out to attract foreign visitors to fund development of health and education. Its forests, full of wildlife and rare flowers, were offered to tourists as one more untouched paradise. In fact, the nature all too soon felt the effects of thousands of holidaymakers travelling through the forest land. Ancient tracks became major routes for the walkers, with the consequent exploitation of precious indigenous trees and plants.

Not only can the environment of a country suffer from the sudden growth of tourism, but the people rapidly feel its effects as well. Farmland makes way for hotels, roads and airports; the old way of life goes. The previous farmer is now the servant of some multinational organization; he is no longer his own master. Once it was his back that bore the pain; now it is his smile that is exploited. No doubt he wonders whether he wasn't happier in his village working his own land.

Thankfully, the tourist industry is waking up to the responsibilities it has towards those countries that receive their customers. The protection of wildlife and the creation of national parks go hand in hand with tourist development and in fact obtain financial support from tourist companies. At the same time, tourists are being encouraged to respect not only the countryside they visit but also its people.

The way tourism will be handled in the next ten years will decide its fate and that of the countries we all want to visit. Their needs and problems are more important than those of the tourist companies. Increased understanding in planning worldwide tourism can preserve the market for these companies. If not, in a few years' time the very things that attract tourists now may well have been destroyed.

My suggestion is that different kinds of garbage should be sorted out and placed in different dustbins. For example, paper can be sorted into the recyclable, while leftovers should be classified as kitchen waste. What's more, poisonous things such as used batteries should not be mixed with other garbage.
The program is of great benefit. We will be able to save resources by making use of recyclable garbage. So let's work together to make our campus more beautiful.

It was the longest heat wave anyone could remember, and Sebastian couldn't wait to cool off at the beach with his dad. Before heading out of town, they stopped at the library and returned a few books.
单元过关检测
Sebastian noticed several workers working on the library roof. He asked Dad what they were doing. Dad explained that they were repairing the roof, a difficult job he had done himself for a few years.
It was then that an idea flashed into Sebastian's head:I bet they would need some water. But the idea disappeared just as quickly as the view passing by his window, and his thoughts turned to swimming.

The waves were perfect for bodyboarding and a sea breeze cooled the air. But all too soon they were headed home, back to the heat. Sebastian was listening to the radio when the DJ gave the weather report, “The record-breaking heat will continue throughout the afternoon. If you have to be outside, remember to hydrate (给……供水) the body.”

When they drove by the library, the roofers were still working and the sun was beating down on them. Sebastian wondered whether they had enough water all the way home. Sebastian had just finished two weeks of soccer camp, and even with frequent water breaks, it had been badly hot. It made him think again about taking some water to the roofers. So after returning home, he shared the idea with his brother Marcos. Marcos shrugged (耸肩),“You don't even know those guys. They've probably gone home already anyway.”

Maybe Marcos was right. Sebastian walked to the end of the driveway, where he could get a view of the library. But the roofers were still there, and the sun was still broiling (酷热的). Sebastian didn't see any coolers anywhere.Then he told Dad,“I really think they need some water.” A look of concern came over Dad's face. He picked up his car keys, saying, “I think you're right. It's only going to get hotter.”

As they passed around the bottles, surprised but grateful, one roofer asked, “ How do you know we have run out of water?”

“It was all his idea,” Dad said, smiling at Sebastian. Sebastian didn't know how to respond.

Having drunk their water, the roofers put the empty bottles back into the bag. They expressed their gratitude to Sebastian and his dad again and waved them goodbye as they drove away. Arriving home, Dad praised Sebastian for his kindness. Sebastian came to realize that a small kindness can make a difference.
