     We send our children to school to prepare them for the time when they will be big and will have to
 work for themselves. They learn their own language so that they will be able to tell others clearly what they
  want and what they know, and understand what others tell them. They learn foreign languages in order to
  be able to understand the people from other countries and make themselves understood. They learn
 history to know something about human beings they meet every day. What they learn at school is, of
 course, quite useful, but is that the only reason (原因) why they go to school?
     No. There is more in education than just learning facts. We go to school, above all, to learn how to
  learn, so that when we have left school, we can continue to learn. A man who really knows how to learn
  will always be successful, because whenever he has to do something new, he will quickly teach himself
 how to do it in the best way. The uneducated person, on the other hand, is either unable to do something
  new, or does it badly. So the purpose (目的) of school is not just to teach the students these useful
 subjects but teach the way to learn.

     We are all asked to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don't do a very good job.
This article gives us some suggestions on how to make an excellent speech.
     Usually people are often afraid of making a speech in public. You get nervous, you forget what you want
to say, you talk too long, and you get your audience bored. Later you think, "Thank Goodness! It's over. I'm
just not good at public speaking. I hope I will never have to do that again."
     Cheer up! It doesn't have to be that hard. Here are some simple steps to make preparations. Firstly, ask
yourself the purpose of your speech. Why are you speaking? Secondly, collect as many facts as you can on
your subject. Thirdly, spend enough time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to
follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts and graphs (圖表) if they help make your
points clearer. Lastly, never forget your audience. Treat your audience with respect. They will be thankful.
      Just remember! Be prepared. Know your subject and your audience. Be brief. Say what you have to say
and then stop. And see yourself. Let your personality (個性) come through so that you make person to person

     We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment.
Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can
make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you to live green life.
     Remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle. 
     Reduce means"use less". Don't waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going
into the environment. Before we buy something new, think if it is really necessary or maybe the old one will
be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many
things from abroad.
    Reuse means"use again". Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last
a long time. We should take care of them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead
of throwing them away and buying new ones. Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china
cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.
    Recycle means"change things into something else". Although it takes energy to change something into
something else, it's better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your
neighborhood and take part in recycling programmes. We should also buy products made from recycled
materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.
                                                   Title: 1_____  to Live a Green Life
          We produce waste every day and it is 2_____ to us. We can do something to help.
