Think of it like a new kind of treasure hunt— turning “rubbish” into something useful! It’s all about living a simple (朴素的) and green life. Some young people share good ways to reuse these everyday things online. Luo Jiayi, a 20-year-old student, collects many takeout bags from his favourite drinks and meals. He used a bag to wrap (包装) gifts, turned a bag into a trash bag and turned a milk tea cup into a pencil case. “Saving isn’t about spending a little money or buying cheap things. It’s about saying no to waste,” said Luo. Luo’s classmate Lu Yunli shares the same hobby. She started collecting takeout bags in high school, and there are many takeout bags at her home. “I use beautiful takeout bags to carry my lunch to school.

At lunchtime, I still stayed in the classroom. Suddenly Cathy said to me, “Linda, you look unhappy. Could you tell me why?” I had a look at her but said nothing. I knew Cathy got a good grade in the exam. She kept on asking me more questions. “Is it because of the exam? Do you need my help?” I kept quiet all the time. Then Cathy went out. After a while, I looked for my maths paper here and there, but I couldn’t find it. In the afternoon, Cathy came up to my desk and gave my maths paper back to me. I looked at it and got a big surprise. Cathy wrote down how to work out each problem on my paper. How kind she was! My face turned red. At that time, I held her hands and said, “Thank you, my friend!” Cathy and I are still good friends now. We both think our friendship will last long. 39.

James encourages people to protect the seas and understand their importance. Li Jing loves birds, especially the tiny Spoon-billed Sandpipers (勺嘴鹬). There are only about 600 of them in the world now. They travel almost 10,000 kilometres every year, but their homes are disappearing. Li and her team have spent over ten years watching them, protecting their homes and teaching children why wetlands matter. “If we save the birds, we save the earth,” she says. These explorers’ stories tell us to connect with nature and take action for a good future. 43. What did Jane Goodall discover about chimps? A. They can speak human languages. B.

Or do you think it’s better to travel with friends? If you’re still deciding, please read on. Traveling alone really shows you what you’re made of and helps you find the inner strength (内心的力量) you didn’t know you have. And it also gives you time to think and learn. It’s easy to think that traveling alone is lonely (孤独的). Although that may sometimes be true, you’re hardly ever alone. When you travel as a one-person team, you can enjoy the most interesting part of travel—talking with the locals (当地人) and meeting travelers from all over the world. In fact, traveling to know about the world is not easy. There’s lots of information to look up, tickets to buy, and things like these. And there’s another thing to worry about: Things can and often do go wrong. One of the greatest things about traveling with friends is being able to help each other. It’s true that traveling with others can give you a sense of safety (安全感). You know that if you get lost or have things lost, there’s someone to hold your hand when you try to report it to the police in another country. There’s no right or wrong way to travel. Whether you travel alone or with friends, it’s up to you. 71.
