When you watch TV and play video games you make global(全球的)warming worse! It may seem hard to believe, but when electricity is made, so are greenhouse gases(溫室氣體). This means that every time you use electricity you help make global warming worse!

Cars are also making global warming worse. They burn fossil fuels(化石燃料)in their engines, and send lots of greenhouse gases into the air.2-1-c-n-j-y

Global warming may be a big problem, but we can all help stop it. People can try to drive their cars less. Or even get ones that run on sunlight! You can also help. Let’s try one of these top ideas:

(1)Try to use less electricity. Turn off lights, your television, and your computer when you’ve stopped using them. To make electricity, fossil fuels are burned in big factories. But burning fossil fuels also makes greenhouse gases. You should also try to watch less TV.

(2)Plant trees. Not only is it a fun thing to do, but it is also a great way to lower the number of greenhouse gases in the air. Trees take carbon dioxide out of the air when they grow.

(3)Don’t throw away your rubbish, try to recycle it. If rubbish is not recycled, it is put in the ground. There it rots(腐爛)and makes a greenhouse gas called methane(甲烷).So try to recycle cans, bottles, plastic bags and newspapers. It’ll make you feel great! And it’ll help the Earth.

1. If we ___________, we may make global warming worse.

A. use less electricity B. drive a car on sunlight

C. plant trees D. throw away rubbish

2. We may use more electricity by______.

A. turning off lights B. shutting down computers

C. turning up CD players D. turning off TV

3. ______ will make global warming worse.

A. Methane B. Cans

C. Newspapers D. Bottles

4.Which is the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A. Driving cars on sunlight helps to stop global warming.

B. When cars burn fossil fuels, they produce greenhouse gases.

C. When trees grow, they send carbon dioxide into the air.

D. By planting more trees, we can lower the number of greenhouse gases in the air.

It can’t be truer that when in Rome do as the Romans do. So it’s important for you to know what you can talk with the local people in other countries.

In France

You’ll find that conversations often turn into heated discussions. You’d better give opinions only on subjects that you are knowledgeable about. There is seldom a moment of silence, except when the topic under discussion has been finished, and nothing new has been introduced.

Food, art, music and current events or history are welcome topics. The French believe in freedom, and you can criticize(批評(píng)) anyone, but not Napoleon, who is a symbol of French spirit and never use the conversation opener “What do you do?”.

In Australia

Australians are excited about discussions. Many topics may be open to discussion, such as religion and politics. The best way, however, is to wait for Australians to bring up these two subjects; be prepared to listen to what they are talking about.

Australians like to criticize themselves, but they can’t stand being criticized by others. Don’t talk big. Instead, Australians prefer to judge(判斷) your abilities through your actions. People who show off their education in conversation may be laughed at.

In Switzerland

The Swiss may seem cold. Once you get close to them, however, you’ll find that they are honest, responsible people, who will respect your interests much.

They are good listeners and will remember almost everything you say to them. Sometimes they will even take notes while you speak. The Swiss are very private people, so you should avoid asking personal questions. They can be rather serious, so it is advisable to avoid making jokes on them.

1.According to the passage, it’s better NOT to criticize ___ ___.

A. the Romans B. the French

C. the Australians D. the Swiss

2.From the passage we know that __ ____.

A. the Swiss are not as cold as they seem to be

B. the French can’t stand the heated discussions

C. the Australians like to talk about their success

D. the French usually have a conversation about jobs

3.The writer wants to tell us ____ __.

A. what to introduce to foreigners

B. how to live in foreign countries

C. how to get along with foreigners

D. what to talk about in foreign countries
