Can you imagine that we could build a beautiful city with rubbish？ Maybe you will think it is（1） 　　． However， it can be true! Nothing is a waste if we have a creative mind． Let me show you something about （2） 　　rubbish．

Sometimes we can see tons of rubbish in the streets， on the roads， near the buildings…here and there．Many large cities became so ugly （3） 　　it． Nobody likes rubbish， but in fact， some rubbish can be used again． All of us want to solve the problem， we must do something to（4） 　　rubbish．We should take action from now on． （5） 　　， some good things will not be wasted．

Do you often throw away things you don't need any more？ Have you ever thought about how these things can actually be put to good use？ For example， when a car gets too old， it may not run anymore．But we can use the metal of the car to make something else． When a bottle is empty， it （6） 　　as waste． You don't know bottle glass can be made into sand and used to build streets． Rubbish （7） 　　food can be changed into fertilizer to make plants grow better． It is cheap and safe． And other rubbish can also be used to make building blocks． Now，（8） 　　machines are designed for that．（9） 　　， people will watch films in a beautiful cinema which is built out of rubbish． Besides buildings and roads， cities may be made from rubbish． But so far， building beautiful cities made from rubbish is only （10） 　　．

In the new sci﹣fi film． The Wandering Earth《流浪地球》， humans save the Earth without leaving it． In many﹣even most﹣ space﹣themed films， whenever Earth faces a disaster（灾难），the（1） 　　is always running away from the planet in spaceships．

But the latest Chinese sci﹣fi movie， The Wandering Earth ，offers a different and more ambitious idea． In the film，based on a short story by Chinese sci﹣fi writer Liu Cixin，Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun． In reply， humans around the world work （2） 　　to build a huge engine system that will push Earth away from the dying sun．（3） 　 　 giving up Earth﹣again﹣ this time we're taking it with us．

This"ambition"didn't come from nowhere， For thousands of years，"homeland" has had a soft point in （4） 　　of Chinese people． One old idiom is "luoyeguigen"， which means returning to one's homeland at the old age， like （5） 　　leaves return to the roots of their trees． Or there is an ancient poem， "The season called the White Dew begins tonight： Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright"． These（6） 　　show the tight link that Chinese people have had with their homeland．

This special cultural background is probably the key （7） 　　separates The Wandering Earth from Hollywood﹣style space films． "What is Chinese sci﹣fi？"Guo Fan， the film's director． said in an interview． "A movie that can really （8） 　　 our cultural and spiritual view can be called Chinese sci﹣fi． Or， we're just copying others and telling the same American stories．"

And the makers of The Wandering Earth may have chosen the best time to tell its Chinese sci﹣fi story．The film was released on Feb 5 ^th， the first day of Chinese New Year． It was a time when many people had just made the （9） 　　journey back to their hometowns．So to them， there is only one possible way to tell the story． Earth（10） 　　wherever humans go， because it's our home forever．

All the people were listening to him（4） 　　．Here was his problem． He said， "people all（5） 　　to the place where a gold mine had（6） 　　been discovered． But when they got there， they found they were（7） 　　by a river in front of it． They had to cross the river if they wanted to get to the gold mine． What would you do if you were among them．"

"Make another way，"someone suggested， "Swim（8） 　　the river"said another． The businessman smiled without saying a word．Finally he gave his idea．"Why not do something（9） 　　instead of rushing to the mine？ How about（10） 　　a boat the ferry（渡船）service？"The listeners were all（11） 　　at his idea． He then explained calmly． The man who bought the boat could（12） 　　a lot of money by taking the passengers to（13） 　　bank of the river． They would like to pay for the ferry（14） 　　there was gold across from the bank．

Do you know what "paying it forward" means？ It's not paying for something before you buy it． "Paying it forward" is to do something nice for another person for no（1） 　　． Then that person does something nice for someone else．

You may think this doesn't seem like much． But this nice act can spread quite（2） 　　．

One day in December 2015， a woman was buying a meal at McDonald's in Florida， US， She also（3） 　　a meal for the person standing in line behind her． That person did the same thing， and the next person did it，（4） 　　． Soon， 250 people had done another person the act of （5） 　　！

But you（6） 　　spend money to pay for it forward． There are examples of paying it forward every day like volunteering， giving food to（7） 　　or doing something nice for someone around you．

It is likely that there are some leftovers in your fridge， and maybe they will be thrown away in the end． If the（1） 　　 in a supermarket is not fresh any more or is near the sell﹣by date， it goes into dust bins too． Every day， a large amount of food is wasted．

To cut down on food waste， France（2） 　　 a new law． It doesn' t allow supermarkets to throw away unsold food．（3） 　　， they must give it to someone or an organization． Food that isn't safe for humans to eat can be used as animal feed． If not， the supermarkets will（4） 　　75 ，000 euros as a punishment or face two years in prison （监狱）． The law also encourages （5） 　　 programs for schools and businesses about food waste．

France is the first country to make a law that doesn't allow wasting food， but it is （6） 　_____ a worldwide problem． The good thing is that people around the world are trying different things to deal with the food waste problem． Galdakao， Spain， put a public fridge in the center of town． Anyone can drop off food or leftovers and anyone can come and take them． A supermarket in Canada encourages people to buy "ugly food" by selling it at lower（7） 　　so it won't end up being wasted．

In China， we have the "clear your plate" action． This means you should eat everything on your plate or （8） 　　 the leftovers．

"（9） 　　much more than what people can eat in restaurants has been a way of making them feel good in China for a long time，" said Liu Qinglong．a professor at Tsinghua University． "But I'm happy to see that our（10） 　　 towards wasting food is changing．"

Children usually say and do things in（1） 　　open and honest ways． Sometimes， I think that children have the different ways to see others and the world． However， adults can （2） 　　see things in children's ways．

One afternoon， I took my son Michael to the supermarket．（3） 　　we were there， we met an elderly couple． Instead of （4） 　　past them， Michael stopped and looked at the old woman in the wheelchair and said，"Hi! I'm Michael． What's your（5） 　　？"

The old woman smiled and said she was Molly Smith． We stood there for a few minutes while Michael and Molly were talking（6） 　　I told him it was time to say good﹣bye． He （7） 　　touched the woman's cheek， watched her carefully and said，"Molly， you're my friend．"

It was one of those （8） 　　 that touched me a lot．The couple seemed really happy and excited when they heard Michael's words． It wasn't the first time he did（9） 　　like this． He always seems to know when someone needs that small act of kindness．

What Michael did reminded me to slow down and（10） 　　 those small ways to show love to someone． You may never know what that smile or small gesture means to someone else．

Grass is， of course a plant which grows in the field； a plant which some kinds of animals like to eat． When there has been plenty of （1） 　　， the grass is green． When the weather has been dry， the grass is brown． Animals like to eat grass when it is （2） 　　and fresh． And if the grass in one place is greener than the rest， animals （3） 　　to eat that grass． An animal in a field may look over the fence（篱笆） into the next field， where perhaps there are no animals and grass in the field （4） 　　greener． But if the animal could get into the field， it would find that the grass is really the same． It just seems better from a distance（远处）． So that's the （5） 　　of the expression "The grass is greener on the other side of the fence．"

We sometimes only say "The grass is （6） 　　greener on the other side．" We use the expression to describe the situation ﹣﹣﹣ someone looks at distant things and feels they are better than the things around him． But （7） 　　he could go to the distant place， he would find that life there is just as difficult． So don't always think that other people have a better situation． Just be （8） 　　with what you have had． Enjoy and value it!
