16、ow what other peoples lives were like because they could not read, I realized the true importance of reading.My first student Marie was a 44- year-old single mother of three. In the first lesson, I found out she walked two miles to the nearest supermarket twice a week because she didnt know which bu

17、s to take. When I told her I would get her a bus timetable, she told me it would not help because she could not read it. She said she also had difficulty once she got to the supermarket because she couldnt always remember what she needs. Since she did not know words, she could not write out a shoppi

18、ng list. Also, she could only know items by sight, so if the product had a different sign, she would not know it as the product she wanted.As we worked together, learning how to read built Maries self-confidence, which encouraged her to continue her studies. She began to make fast progress and was e

19、ven able to take the bus to the supermarket.

20、ories. When his eyes became wide with excitement as she read, pride was written all over her face. As she described this experience, I was proud of myself as well.

55、shorts to work, instead of business suits and ties. Why? The answer is simple. The government is trying to reduce the use of air conditioners.Although air conditioners make our lives easier in hot weather, they can be bad for the environment. The coolers use a great deal of electricity to function a

56、nd add to the effects of global warming.But it is a vicious (恶性的) cycle. As temperatures rise, there will be more need for air conditioning.Pawel Wargocki, an expert at the Technical University of Denmark, told The New York Times: “The air conditioning causes a huge problem to global climate and ene

57、rgy use.” He added, “More and more air conditioners are used. Its very dangerous.”We cant live with air conditioning. But the thing is, we cant live without it either. Scientific studies have shown that if indoor temperatures are high in hot weather, people will suffer from certain health problems a

58、nd have a lower productivity.For example, when air conditioners were turned down in Japanese offices, the room temperature rose to 3 or higher. As a result, workers started getting headaches, and feeling sleepy.They couldnt give all their attention to work and their productivity dropped by 2 percent

59、, which means they did 30 minutes less work each day, according to Shinichi Tanabe, a professor of architecture at Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan.So the best way to balance our comfort with environmental awareness is to change our expectations. Most of the time, its not that the room is too hot,

60、but that we are used to it being cooler.“The temperature many Americans find most comfortable indoors in summer 21C feels uncomfortable to most Europeans, who find it too cold.” said Michael Sivak, professor at a University of Michigan, US. He said it is because Europeans care more about the environ
