Vegetarians usually have lower levels of heart disease, and studies have also shown that they have a lower risk of diabetes (糖尿病) than people who eat meat. However, most people dont realize that a vegetarian diet produces less pollution to the earth. Researchers from the Union of Concerned Scientists in the US recently studied how people affect the environment. The study showed that eating meat is one of the main ways that humans can change the environment, second only to the use of motor vehicle.Then, how can eating meat have a negative effect on the environment? For a start, all farm animals such as cows, pigs, and sheep give off methane gas(沼气) by breathing. One cow can produce up to 60 liters of methane each day. Methane gas is the second most common greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide. Many environmental experts now believe that it is more responsible for global warming than carbon dioxide. It is estimated that 25% of all methane released into the air comes from farm animals. Another way that meat production affects the environment is through the use of water and land. 2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of beef while only 20 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of wheat. One acre of farmland used for crop production can produce 40, 000 pounds of potatoes, 30,000 pounds of carrots, or 50,000 pounds of tomatoes, however, one acre of farmland used for raising cows can produce just 250 pounds of beef. Many people now see the benefits of a vegetarian diet, not just for health reasons, but also because it plays an important role in protecting the environment. However, some nutritionists advise against switching to a totally strict vegetarian, or vegan diet. They believe a vegan diet, which excludes(拒绝) all products from animal sources, such as cheese, eggs, and milk, can be short of many necessary vitamins and minerals our bodies need. Today, many people know that it is important to take better care of their bodies, and to use the earths resources more efficiently. As this understanding spreads, more people may realize that to help the environment and for the human race to survive, more of us will need to become vegetarian.1.

The main idea of the article is that _.A. our diet is destroying the surroundings B. raising farm animals affects the environmentC. a vegetarian diet helps to protect the environment（三） 任务型阅读The Chinese are very generous when it comes to educating their children. Some parents send their children to the best schools or even foreign countries, for example, England, the US or Australia although it costs much. Many also want their children to take after-school activities. Their children either learn a musical instrument(乐器)or ballet, or other classes that will give them a head start in life. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is , the better it is, so parents often spend a big amount of money on education. Even poor couples buy a computer for their son or daughter. However, what most parents fail to see is that the best education they can give their children is usually very cheap. Parents should know their childrens various skills. Children will usually be good in some areas while poor in others. What most parents fail to realize is that todays children lack(缺乏)confidence. The problem is that parents only care about their children on how to achieve high marks in exams. They are not teaching children the most important skills that can be helpful to their growth. These skills also can build their confidence. Parents can help achieve this by teaching their children practical skills like cooking, cleaning and other housework. Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking requires patience and time. It is a pleasant but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and successfully finish his job step by step. The result, a well-cooked dinner, will give a child a lot of satisfaction and confidence. An old machine such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child as a toy may make him curious. If he spends hours looking at it and trying to repair it, your child might become an engineer when he grows up. Its better to do such activities than teach a child to read a book. These activities can teach them to think, and to use their minds.TitleHow Chinese parents should 1 their childrenCommon practicel Being 2 with money when it comes to education.l Sending them to the best schools at home or even 3 .l Making children take after-school activities in order to 4 them a head start in life.l Spending more 5 than they can afford on education. 6 resultsl Children are not confident.Suggested ideasl Teaching their children practical skills, which are of the greatest importance.l 7 .l Cleaning.l Other housework.l 8 a broken radio or TV.Good resultsl 9 the children curious and creative.l Teaching the children to think and use their 10 .（五）首字母填空。March 5th is “Lei Feng Day”.
