If your family is like many in the United States, unloading the week’s groceries includes hauling a case or two of bottled water into your home. On your way to a soccer game or activity, it’s easy to grab a cold one right out of the fridge, right?
But all those plastic bottles use a lot of fossil fuels and pollute the environment. In fact, Americans buy more bottled water than any other nation in the world, adding 29 billion water bottles a year to the problem. In order to make all these bottles, manufacturers use 17 million barrels of crude oil. That’s enough oil to keep a million cars going for twelve months.
Imagine a water bottle filled a quarter of the way up with oil. That’s about how much oil was needed to produce the bottle.
So why don’t more people drink water straight from the kitchen faucet? Some people drink bottled water because they think it is better for them than water out of the tap, but that’s not true. In the United States, local governments make sure water from the faucet is safe. There is also growing concern that chemicals in the bottles themselves may leach into the water.
People love the convenience of bottled water. But maybe if they realized the problems it causes, they would try drinking from a glass at home or carrying water in a refillable steel container instead of plastic.
Plastic bottle recycling can help—instead of going out with the trash, plastic bottles can be turned into items like carpeting or cozy fleece clothing.
Unfortunately, for every six water bottles we use, only one makes it to the recycling bin. The rest are sent to landfills. Or, even worse, they end up as trash on the land and in rivers, lakes, and the ocean. Plastic bottles take many hundreds of years to disintegrate.
Water is good for you, so keep drinking it. But think about how often you use water bottles, and see if you can make a change.
Betty McLaughlin, who runs an organization called the Container Recycling Institute, says we should try using fewer bottles: “If you take one to school in your lunch, don’t throw it away—bring it home and refill it from the tap for the next day. Keep track of how many times you refill a bottle before you recycle it.”
And yes, you can make a difference. Remember this: Recycling one plastic bottle can save enough energy to power a 60-watt light bulb for six hours.

Some people live in the world for body while others for dignity(尊严).
I once took a walk along the street a Saturday dusk, with a Pepsi can in my hand. An old woman in ragged clothes,
was living on collecting used cans, jars and tins, moved slowly towards me, with a bag on the back!
(walk) nearer, she looked up at me and then fixed her eyes on my can. At that time, I hadn’t finished my cola, so I gave
several coins instead.
She stared at me for a few seconds handed back the money. Quite confused, I asked: “Why not? Isn’t that
you want?”
“I am not a beggar,” she said (serious), word by word.
Instantly, I felt so sorry. I had intended (help) her, completely misunderstanding her. Thus I hurt her. What I could do at that moment was only to drink up the cola and handed her
emptied can. This time, she gave me a smile with
(satisfy) and gratitude in her eyes. The woman is poor in material life but is so respectable as a man. I am not only moved but also have learned a good lesson.

Goal setting is simply having a clear plan of where you want to be in the future. In order to set goals, you must first know where you want to be in the future, or you must have some kind of a dream, something that you really want.
How to set a goal needs a lot of thought about what you really want to do in your life. Take some time by asking yourself about the reason behind your goal. If you are struggling to find direction, then learn to set goals.
Set goals that you can achieve. Divide them into simple tasks that you can achieve every day, every month, every year. Set your goals for success. Often people fail to achieve their dreams, not for lack of hard work and motivation, but simply because they failed to define（界定）their dreams and goals in a way that allowed them to effectively move toward their goals.
Here are some other important points to consider when setting a goal. The goal should be clear enough so that we know exactly what we are struggling for and when the goal has been reached. It should be realistic, that is to say, it is practical and can be achieved. Moreover, it should have necessary resources and a deadline for completion.
Goal setting helps us get organized, make big decisions and realize our dreams. Goals will take you to places you’ve only dreamed of. They’ll help you achieve your life’s dreams. They will give you confidence. And most of all, they’ll motivate you to keep on trying. So just like any other tool, you must know how to properly use goal setting so that you’ll be successful in achieving your dreams.

Celebrating sleep
World Sleep Day, observed （庆祝）on 21 March, was created to bring attention to the growing number of sleep problems worldwide. Sleep is a natural part of human life, but many people in the modern world ignore its importance. As a result, sleep problems are increasingly common.
In 2002, scientists at the University of Athens in Greece conducted a survey of over 35,000 people in 10 countries around the world, including China, Belgium and South Africa. Of the people, 24 percent said that they did not sleep well, and based on their responses, 31.6 percent were diagnosed (诊断)with insomnia（失眠）and another 17.5 percent were diagnosed with borderline insomnia. In addition, 30.7 percent of survey respondents reported visiting a doctor for help with sleep problems and 11.6 percent said that they felt very sleepy during the day.
Overall, the survey found that many people suffer the effects of poor quality sleep, some examples of which are being unable to fall asleep and waking up in the middle of the night. The main factors causing these problems are pressure from school or work and a fast pace of life, but noise pollution and light pollution also disturb sleep and contribute to poor quality sleep. The survey’s findings are particularly troubling because large numbers of people were found to have difficulty sleeping at night. The short-term effects of this are tiredness and trouble concentrating（专心）. If this happens for a long time, the risk of putting on weight and having a heart attack may increase.
There are many things you can do to improve the quality of your sleep. First, you should have regular sleep habits. Try to go to bed and wake up around the same time each day. You also need to make your bedroom a cool, dark, quiet place to sleep so that heat, light and noise do not disturb you. At night, you should also avoid things that contain caffeine（咖啡因）, such as chocolate, coffee, tea and many soft drinks, as caffeine may keep you from sleeping.
Getting a good night’s sleep is important for everyone. By following the advice above, you can rest better at night and work better during the day.
