B
Holding doors open, picking up rubbish, thanking people … these acts of kindness seem very small. But students at Tibbetts Middle School know that it’s the small acts that make the world a better place.
Eighth-graders from New Mexico, US, took part in the Random (随意) Acts of Kindness Week from Feb 10 to 14. During the week, they tried their best to do kind things for others, or for the environment.
Celeste Murray, an English teacher at the school, started the activity. “I believe the world is changed by little things,” she told the local newspaper. Over the week, Murray said she has seen changes in her class. Previously, she asked her students to push the chairs in after class. Now, the students do it by themselves. “The teachers will have less work,” said Elisea Castaneda, one of Murray’s students.
Jordin Marshall, another eighth-grader, spent the week giving out praise (赞扬). “It makes that person’s day (使那个人开心),” she said. “Besides helping others, the activity made students feel that they can make a difference,” Murray said.
Eighth-grader Haley Echols decided to continue to do at least one act of kindness every week. She believes her acts could encourage others.

Saving water is an important part of going green. As water becomes less and is polluted more,
conservation (保护) becomes more and more important. If people keep wasting water, more water needs to be treated and cleaned. This process needs quite a lot of energy.
As it is said above, cutting down on water usage is one of the most important things you can do for your local environment. That is why more green families are going blue by conserving and harvesting water.
It may seem like a big concept (概念), but going blue starts with small changes. Something as simple as turning off the tap while you brush your teeth can save a lot of water. Wash your fruits and vegetables in a bowl instead of under a tap to save even more. Make sure that the taps are fully turned off every time you step away.
Another way of reducing water usage is reducing your dependence on the main water supply. Rainwater harvesting can meet a lot of your home’s water needs. Collecting rainwater is
a great way to keep your garden green without running the sprinkler (洒水器).

to see if anyone had wasted paper. Luckily, I got enough (64) s from both the teachers and my classmates.
Now, I don’t need to be as (65) b as before. Because all of us have (66)
f a habit of “going green”. Everyone knows it is important to keep the classroom clean and (67) s energy. We never leave the lights on when no one is in the classroom.

Beautiful environment can make us feel happy and comfortable. To protect the environment means to protect our home. Remember that it’s our duty to protect the environment.
