They told us that we were really important and 2 to humans and the Earth.“We take harmful gas from the air, and 3 oxygen. People love us because we are natural and free air conditioners, producing clean and fresh air for them to breathe. Our leaves filter the air by removing dust.

We are also the home of wildlife. We provide food 4 both humans and animals.”Wow! My friend and I felt really proud to be trees. We could help humans and the Earth in so many ways.Yesterday, however, some people 5 saws(锯子) to my home and cut down my tree friends one by one.

(7%)What does it mean to be “green”? “Green” is more than just a c. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment---the water, the land, and the air we breathe. Why? Because plants are green, and w them the Earth wouldn’t be such a lovely home for us human beings. Here’s a four-step guide to keep being green:Reduce it!When you use less of something, you do a good thing for the Earth. For example, a short shower m you use less water and fuel if your house uses fuel to run the water heater that warms up the water.Reuse it!Sometimes we’re a little too willing to t away old things and buy new things. Many times, if you no longer need something, someone else just might need it. For example, if your baby brother grows out of toys, why not give them to another family who has a little kid?Recycle(再利用)it!Recycling has never been much e . Sometimes you can leave the things which you do not want right in front of your house and someone who needs them will pick them up. To make people around you get into the h of recycling, you have to spend much precious time telling them which things can be recycled.Enjoy it!It’s true that pollution is a problem, but the Earth remains a huge and beautiful place for you to go and study. You can start by v the naturally beautiful places in your hometown. Go for a hike, get close to local nature centers and gardens, climb up mountains and so on.D.

When Hemingway was young, the family owned a house on a lake where they spent the summers. Hemingway learned to hunt, fish, and camp in the woods and lakes. His early experiences with nature made him interested in outdoor adventure(冒险), hunting, and fishing.After graduating from high school in 1917, Hemingway worked as a reporter for a newspaper named the Kansas City Star. During World War I, Hemingway, at the age of 19, volunteered to become an ambulance driver for the Road Cross in Italy. He got wounded in a battle and was sent to a hospital in Milan. He fell in love with Agnes, a Red Cross nurse seven years older than he. They planned to marry; however, Agnes married someone else in 1919.Later, Hemingway began writing and traveling around the world. In 1925, his first novel, The Sun Also Rises, came out. It is widely considered his best work. Four years later, he wrote A Farewell to Arms(《永别了，武器》)，a sad love story of an American soldier and a British nurse. The plot was inspired by his earlier relationship with Agnes in Milan. In 1939, Hemingway moved to Cuba. He wrote For Whom the Bell Tolls(《丧钟为谁而鸣》)the same year. In 1952, his last novel, The old man and the sea, was published; it made Hemingway famous and gained him the Pulitzer Prize(普利策奖)in 1952 and the Novel Prize in literature in 1954.Because of bad health and illness of the mind, Hemingway killed himself in July, in 1961.
