better?Every person has his own talents and interests.Find
something you care about,and you will see the difference.

in the place where there is already litter.This leaves the com-
munity in a mess.The environment will become better if
someone volunteers to help.You could pick up the rubbish
with your friends once a week in your neighbourhood.You
could also help take care of the plants every few days.Surely,
a clean and tidy neighbourhood will be worth the work.

people's homes.Without children around them,the old people
there might feel lonely once in a while.Maybe they need your
help.In fact,you can do a lot for them.For example,you can
talk with them or play games with them.Listening to them
carefully is also a good idea.Some old people can't see clearly
and they would like you to read to them.No matter what small
things you do,you can make them feel loved.
4Set up a reading project with your friends.Share your
favourite books with them.Besides,you may read aloud to
each other and talk about what you read.Either a book or an
article can spark a lively discussion and your further thinking.
The process often challenges more people to take action.The
project is also a good way to welcome newcomers.At the
same time,you may find new friends with similar hobbies.

Solar power:clean energy for the future
For many years,people have been looking for clean and
renewable energy to take the place of fossil fuels.Solar power
is one of the most popular clean energy sources around the
world.It uses the sunlight to make electricity,and it doesn't
produce any harmful gases or pollution.
Solar power has many advantages.First,it is renewable.
The sun will keep shining for billions of years,so we don't
need to worry about it running out.Second,it is quiet and
safe.Unlike coal power stations,solar panels don't make any
noise,and they are safe to use at home.Third,it can save
money.After you install solar panels,you can make your own
electricity,so you don't need to pay much for the electricity
bill every month.
However,solar power also has some problems.The big-
gest one is that it can't work at night,and it doesn't work well
on cloudy or rainy days.Also,solar panels need a lot of space
to produce enough electricity for a large building.And the cost
of installing solar panels is still quite high for some people.
With the development of technology,these problems are
being solved.New solar panels can work better in low light,
and the cost is becoming lower and lower.In China,solar
power is developing very fast.Now China has the largest solar
power capacity in the world,and more and more solar power
stations are being built every year.
Solar power is playing a more and more important role in
our life.It helps us build a cleaner and greener world.In the
future,it will become one of the most important energy
sources for human beings.
