Students these days often have a lot of worries． Sometimes they have problems with their schoolwork， and sometimes with their friends． What can they do about this？ Some people believe the worst thing is to do nothing． Laura Mills， a teenager from London， agrees．"Problems and worries are normal in life，" says Laura． But I think talking to someone helps a lot． Unless we talk to someone， we'll certainly feel worse．"
Laura once lost her wallet， and worried for days．She was afraid to tell her parents about it．She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn't have any money．She just kept thinking，"If I tell my parents， they'll be angry!" In the end，she talked to her parents and they were really understanding．Her dad said he sometimes made careless mistakes himself． They got her a new wallet and asked her to be more careful．"I will always remember to share my problems in the future!" Laura says．
Robert Hunt advises students about common problems． He feels the same． way as Laura．"It is best not to run away from our problems． We should always try to solve them．"He thinks the first step is to find someone you trust to talk to．This person doesn't need to be an expert like himself．" Students often forget that their parents have more experience， and are always there to help them．
In English， we say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half． So you're halfway to solving a problem just by talking， to someone about it．

（3）What happened to Laura and what did she learn from it？

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

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？

（5）What do local people think of the new program？
Hi， Tom，
Thanks for your message and I am glad that you wrote to me for ideas．
I remember when I was learning English， I felt uncomfortable about speaking． I could remember lots of words and knew grammar rules， but speaking was difficult． I now feel a lot more confident about speaking， so here are some ideas that I have taken from my own experience．
Don' t worry about making mistakes．Other people will still know your meaning and they probably won't notice your mistakes．
Use every chance you get to speak． For example，it's a good idea to use only English in class and not to speak to your classmates in your own language． At home， you should also try practicing new words and grammar learnt in class．
Think about extra speaking practice outside the classroom． You can join a conversation group，such as the chat groups in the study centre． They are free to join．
Practice speaking online． There are lots of websites where you can communicate with someone from all around the world．
I hope this helps you and please come to me if you have other problems．
Best wishes，
Eliza

Eight years ago， 1﹣week﹣old Diandian was left behind． When people found her in the reeds （芦苇） of a lake， she looked too weak to survive． Now she is the mother of three milu， thanks to the workers' attention and care at the East Dongting Lake National Nature Reserve．

Milu habitats （栖息地） are usually centered around water， and fishing equipment that used to be a threat to the animals is no longer seen in nature reserves． On May 27， a team of experts went to watch milu near Dongting Lake． It takes time and luck to meet one and count them especially when they live in the thick reeds that are 4 to 5 meters tall． The team leader Song， saw a milu for the first time when he was studying for his doctorate in zoology early in 2009． Since then， he has helped protect the habitats at Dongting Lake． As the flood season is coming， Song and his workmates will go around the lake area day and night to save deer in trouble， and provide feed for the animals when needed．
As the environment improves in and around Dongting Lake， China's second﹣largest freshwater lake， the wetland has become cover once again for wildlife． "We will continue to protect these rare animals and their living environment，" Song said．
