No Car Day was first started by 34 cities in France on September 22, 1998. It was started to protect the environment. By now, more than 1,000 cities around the world have had a No Car Day.

The first No Car Day in China was in Chengdu in 2001. Other cities, including Taipai, Shanghai and Wuhan, also support the day.

In Beijing, more and more people are joining the campaign(運(yùn)動(dòng)). It asks drivers to leave their cars at home for one day each month and walk or ride a bike to work. It also calls on Beijingers not to use cars on June 5(World Environment Day). The slogan(口號(hào)) for the day is, “If we drive for one less day, we can have one more nice day.”

So far, more than 200,000 drivers have shown their support. “We can’t control the weather, but we can choose not to drive,” said Wu Zonghua, a car club chairman. Beijing is trying to have 238 blue sky days this year. In the first quarter of 2012, Beijing only had 52 blue sky days. This was 11 days less than the number for the same period the year before. Much of the dust comes from the desert, but cars cause most of the air pollution. We must do more for No Car Day.

These days students often have a lot of worries. Sometimes the worries come from their schoolwork, and sometimes from their friends. What can they do about this? Some people think the worst thing is to do nothing. Laura Mills, a teenager from Washington, agrees. “Problems and worries are normal in life,” says Laura. “But I think talking to someone helps a lot. If we don’t talk to anyone, we’ll certainly feel worse.”

Laura once lost her purse, 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!” But 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 purse 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 avoid our problems. We should always try to solve them.” He thinks that you can first find someone to talk to. This person doesn’t need to be an expert (專家) like himself. Students often forget that their parents have more experience than them 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 if you talk to someone about it!

1.These days students’ worries come from at times.

A. their friends B. their teachers

C. their school work D. Both A and C

2.In Paragraph 2, the writer used the story of Laura to .

A. give an example

B. answer a question

C. introduce his friend

D. share his experience

3.The underlined word “avoid” in Paragraph 3 means ?

A. solve B. think about

C. deal with D. keep away from

4.According to the passage Robert Hunt might be .

A. Laura’s teacher

B. an expert on students’ problems

C. a person with a problem

D. the writer of the passage

5.What is the main idea of this passage?

A. Problems and worries are normal in life.

B. Talking to someone helps to solve problems.

C. Parents have more experience than their children.

D. Students often have a lot of worries at school.

Microsoft founder Bill Gates has talked about to be a good parent, saying that 13 is a right age for a child's first mobile phone. The 57-year-old father of three said on the Today show that his children Jennifer and Rory were not allowed phones until their thirteen birthday and his youngest daughter Phoebe is still waiting for one.

“We've made a rule in our family that it's 13 when you get a phone.” He also said as a result his child often returned home from school complaining, “All the other kids have it, I'm the only without it, it's so embarrassing.”
