This is such a heart﹣warming piece of news in the cold winter. Some days ago, the temperature was only ﹣6℃ in Kaifeng, Henan. Someone ordered 50 cups of warm porridge(粥) through Meituan App and noted " Please give the porridge to those sanitation(环卫) workers who are clearing snow on the road nearby and those delivery(递送) men who are delivering food. "When the porridge shop owner received the order, he was moved by the note and provided 60 cups.

The story didn′t end here. As soon as the food delivery man got the big order,he shared it with his workmates so that they could also get paid. Finally, Meituan returned the money to the porridge buyer, Mr. Zhang and gave him a reward of ¥500. Although he had to raise his newly﹣ born baby and pay for his

house every month, Mr. Zhang said he would surely continue delivering love.

The kind help also encouraged many other citizens in Kaifeng.This summer,volunteers are sending cool drinks everyday.

Similar stories have happened in many other places in China. Outdoor workers in different cities are able to enjoy free and caring help. Lots of "love posts"are providing "coolness"in hot summer and"warmth"in cold winter. Just as a citizen of Kaifeng said,"I feel deeply moved and warm in heart."

In fact, we get love and give love every day. Love delivery makes our life better and more beautiful.

Later ,coffee came to Turkey(土耳其),then Italy, then France. From Europe, the coffee plant was taken to America. People found that coffee plants grew well in many parts of South America, so large coffee farms were started, and many coffee plants were grown. On these farms, coffee beans were picked from the plants by hand. Then the beans were dried and prepared for market to sell. Different coffee beans were mixed together to produce different kinds of coffee. Coffee was sent to all over the world, and soon became very popular.

Keep a sleep routine(常规).Going to bed at the same time every night helps the body expect sleep.Creating a set bedtime routine can improve this relaxation effect.Spending time with a pet,writing a diary or doing anything else can relax you.

Expect a good night's sleep.Instead of worrying that you won't sleep,remind(提醒) yourself that you can.Say"Tonight,I will sleep well"several times during the day.It can also help to practice breathing exercises or gentle exercises before bed.

    Paying for bus rides with plastic usually makes people think of plastic bus cards.But one Indonesian city has decided to accept plastic recyclable waste in place of money for city buses.

   Surabaya, Indonesia's second largest city, located on the eastern end of the country′s main island Java, made this decision in April 2018.Now,locals can pay for their bus rides by putting plastic cups or bottles directly on the bus.A two﹣hour bus ride costs 10 plastic cups or 5 bottles.

    Indonesia is the second largest ocean plastic polluter, producing up to 2.4 million tons of plastic waste into the oceans every year according to a report.Only in Surabaya nearly 400 tons of plastic waste is produced every day.The head of Surabaya's transportation department(交通部门) said,"With this decision, we hope to raise public awareness about environment, especially people's awareness about plastic waste."

    Each city bus can collect up to 550 pounds of plastic bottles and cups every day.The collected bottles are sold to recycling companies and the money earned from it goes toward running the bus companies and providing money for green spaces in the city.This is certainly turning rubbish into a national treasure.

    The decision is part of the city's purpose to become plastic waste﹣free by 2020.In order to encourage local people to take buses,the city also added the new Suroboyo buses.The new buses are air﹣conditioned,comfortable and easy for elderly and disabled passengers to get on and off.

    The program is well received.People in Surabaya said,"We can reduce waste so it doesn't pile up at home because we can just bring it in and make good use of it. It is a win﹣win situation."

    This type of program can be a model for other cities worldwide and encourage citizens to recycle their plastic waste.

回答下面5个问题,每题答案不超过六个词.

(1)Instead of money, how can locals in Surabaya pay for bus rides now?

  

(2)How much plastic waste does a two﹣hour bus ride cost?

  

(3)How much plastic waste is produced in Surabaya every day?

To the Editor,

    I am writing as a member of One﹣on﹣One,the sixth﹣grade mentoring (指导) group.Our group is two years old and made up of 14 students.Our task is to help students reach their goals through mentoring.We hope the readers of this school newspaper will join our group. This is my first year as a mentor,but I have already learned that everyone taking part in mentoring gets something out of it.

    I was assigned (分配) to a mentor last year. Mentoring was one of the best things that happened to me. I was able to turn the corner at an important point in my studies, going from nearly failing math to passing it. It still amazes me that I completely changed from almost hating math to loving it! Would you believe I'm even thinking of studying math in college? Even if I don't, I have skills that I will use for the rest of my life. My own experience made me feel certain of becoming a mentor this year and helping other students like myself. Now that I am a mentor, I realize what a good feeling you get from helping someone else and knowing that you' re making a difference in his or her life.In many situations,lasting friendships are made as well. My mentor and I hit it off right away.And we're still good friends today.

    Becoming a mentor is a serious commitment(承诺).Mentors spend one hour every week with the student they are mentoring.Considering your responsibilities,it may be difficult to add another commitment to your schedule.But I hope you will at least consider the possibility.

    Thank you for considering our invitation. We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Mark Lopez
