A new US law on plastic was passed thanks to a girl’s hard work.
In January, a new law was passed in Colorado, the US. It is called the Plastic Pollution Reduction Act. This law stops the use of styrofoam containers (聚苯乙烯泡沫塑料容器) and single-use plastic bags. Madhvi Chittoor, a Grade 8 student, worked on this for seven years.
When Chittoor was 5 years old, she watched the documentary Midway: A Plastic Island. It shows a faraway Pacific island filled with rubbish washed up from around the world. After she saw the island’s seabirds and fish eating plastic, she knew something needed to change.
“I cried that night,” Chittoor, now 13, said to PEOPLE, “and I told my mom, ‘I really want to do something about this’.”
Since then, she has tried her best to show people the bad sides of plastic pollution and to push the government to create laws that stop the use of plastic.
She published (出版) a children’s book called Is Plastic My Food? and has even met people like Vice-President (副总统) Kamala Harris and others.
“I spoke with so many business owners and nearly 30 mayors (市长) all over Colorado, even in faraway areas,” said Chittoor. “And they all supported it. I was really excited and happy when the law was passed.”
She is now helping lawmakers stop the use of “forever chemicals (永久性化学物质)” in things like plastic grass. She will continue on the long road to fight against plastic pollution.
“Adults are going along as though it’s business as usual,” said Chittoor, explaining what drives her. “But children are the ones who are going to take over (接管) this planet.”

Is it true that plants release (释放) CO₂ during the night and that I should not have one in my bedroom?
You are correct. Plants do release CO₂ at night, although they also release CO₂ during the day.
This is a part of the breathing process! First, you should know that during the day, when there is enough sunlight, plants run a process called photosynthesis (光合作用). This is where they use CO₂, water and sunlight to produce sugar to be used as food.
To use the sugar that plants make through photosynthesis, they need to change the sugar into energy. This process is called breathing. Breathing releases energy from the plant’s sugar, and as a part of this process the plant releases CO₂ and water. So this is where the CO₂ comes from.
Unlike photosynthesis which can only be carried out in the green parts of the plant, like the leaves and stems (茎), breathing can go throughout the plant. It is also a process that is happening all of the time, during both the day and the night! Please do not worry, although plants are in the room. Humans also release CO₂ when we breathe out. One plant is not going to release as much CO₂ as one sleeping person. If we can safely share a room with our partners, we can surely share a room with our plants!
Plants are really good for our health. It has been shown that being with nature can reduce negative (负面的) feelings and increase positive (积极的) feelings. Caring for plants can be very relaxing and it can be an experience of success to see something that you look after grow. Because of that, I’d like you to have one in your bedroom.

A. The green parts. B. The roots and flowers.
C. The whole body. D. The roots.
14. Why does the writer suggest having a plant in your bedroom?
A. Because plants use sunlight to turn water and CO₂ into O₂ and sugar.
B. Because taking care of plants makes one feel relaxed and successful.

Is it true that plants release (释放) CO₂ during the night and that I should not have one in my bedroom?
You are correct. Plants do release CO₂ at night, although they also release CO₂ during the day.
This is a part of the breathing process! First, you should know that during the day, when there is enough sunlight, plants run a process called photosynthesis (光合作用). This is where they use CO₂, water and sunlight to produce sugar to be used as food.
To use the sugar that plants make through photosynthesis, they need to change the sugar into energy. This process is called breathing. Breathing releases energy from the plant’s sugar, and as a part of this process the plant releases CO₂ and water. So this is where the CO₂ comes from.
Unlike photosynthesis which can only be carried out in the green parts of the plant, like the leaves and stems (茎), breathing can go throughout the plant. It is also a process that is happening all of the time, during both the day and the night! Please do not worry, although plants are in the room. Humans also release CO₂ when we breathe out. One plant is not going to release as much CO₂ as one sleeping person. If we can safely share a room with our partners, we can surely share a room with our plants!
Plants are really good for our health. It has been shown that being with nature can reduce negative (负面的) feelings and increase positive (积极的) feelings. Caring for plants can be very relaxing and it can be an experience of success to see something that you look after grow. Because of that, I’d like you to have one in your bedroom.

【答案】例文
Lucky Money
Lucky Money is a red envelope with money inside. It is a traditional gift during the Spring Festival in Chinese culture. People give it to children to wish them good luck.
There are different opinions. Some believe that it belongs to children, who should have the freedom to decide how to use it. However, others argue that children may not use it wisely, so parents should keep it.
In my opinion, both sides have their reasons. A part of the money could be under the parents’ care to ensure it’s used properly. Meanwhile, children can have a small amount at their own disposal. For example, they can buy books or stationery they like. This way, kids can learn to be responsible for their money while also being guided by their parents.
Remember, the money in the red envelope is a gift with blessings. Use it to do things that make you happy and are useful!
