Why? The answer

23、 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 and add to the effects of global warming.But it is a vicious (惡性的) c

24、ycle. 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 energy use.” He added, “More and more air conditioners are used. Its v

25、ery 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 and have a lower productivity.For example, when air conditioners wer

26、e 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, which means they did 30 minutes less work each day, according to

27、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, but that we are used to it being cooler.“The temperature many Ameri

28、cans 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.

However, they were very different from restaurants today.The first restaurants were in ancient Greece and ancient Rome. These restaurants served food in large stone

34、bowls. People didnt order food from a menu. Everyone used to share the food from big bowls. People believe that these places were very popular because most homes in ancient Greece and Rome did not have kitchens. Also, people didnt have to store food at home if they ate their meals at these restauran

35、ts.Later, restaurants began to open in China. In the early 1100s, more than 1 million people lived in the city of Hangzhou, China. It was a very busy city, and people had money. All of these people had to eat. Smart cooks started cooking and selling food along the Imperial Way, a very big street in

36、the city. Unlike in ancient Greece and Rome, people in China could choose food from a menu. They didnt have to eat the same food as everyone else.For the next several centuries, there were restaurants all over the world. People could buy food on the street or at inns- small hotels. Then, in the midd

37、le of the 1700s, restaurants started opening in Paris. These restaurants were more similar to restaurants we know today. There was a bigger. variety of food, and eating in these restaurants was a more enjoyable experience. In the 19th century, trains made travel much faster and simpler. In the end,

38、this kind of restaurant began to appear all over Europe and in other parts of the world.Now, restaurants are everywhere. You can buy a variety of different kinds of food. You can have food sent to your door. But remember it wasnt always like that.1It is believed that these first restaurants were pop

Most Chinese hotels often provide guests with things like disposable (一次

42、性的) toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo and slippers. Many guests like the idea because they dont have to bring their own. But, if you travel to Beijing, remember to bring your own things. Starting from June, some hotels in Beijing will no longer provide guests with these disposables. They want to ask

43、 people to use less disposable things.Many disposable things are made of plastic. People throw them away after only using them once. It is a waste of natural resources and is very bad for the environment. Do you know, one Chinese person makes as much as 400kg of waste a year! Most of that waste come

44、s from disposable things. In Beijing, people throw away about 19,000 tons of plastic bags and 1,320 tons of plastic lunch bowls every year! Plastic can take between 100 and 400 years to break down. So the less plastic we throw out, the better. So, wherever you travel, bring your own things and use t

45、hem again and again.Back at home and school, you can also do something to make our world a better place. Try to do these things in your daily life: Use cloth shopping bags, not plastic ones. After using a plastic bag, wash it out and let it dry. Then you can use it over and over again. Do not use pa

51、ied about remembering something， youll forget it. If you keep telling yourself that your memory is bad， your mind will come to believe it and you wont remember things.

52、on you and your memory.But relaxing isnt enough. To improve your memory， youll need to take an active role. Like your body， your memory can be made strong through exercise.

It can take time to learn how to listen to the key information, so keep trying and dont give up.If you want to w
