In the search for clean． renewable（可再生的） energy． wind power might be the perfect choice．People have been using the power of the wind for centuries．Since ancient times， wind power has been used to move ships， grind （碾谷）and so on，Around the end of the 19 ^thcentury， the invention of the wind turbine（涡轮机） made it possible to use Wind to produce electricity．

The first advantage of wind power is that it is a renewable resource{能源）． No mater how much wind we use to produce electricity， it will never run out． Secondly， wind power i a clean resource of enery， meaning it produces electricity without harmful emissions（排 放物）． Thirdly，although wind turbines can be very tall， each uses only a small piece of land． This means that the Land below can still be used．

Yet． wind energy has some disadvantages．One of the disadvantages is that the large spinning lodes（螺旋桨叶） of the wind turbines can be dangerous to birds． The second is that the turbines create noise pollution． The sound may make the people nearby uncomfortable． The third，wind can not provide a constantsupply（供应） of energy． Even the windiest places on Earth are peaceful． Without a strong wind， wind turbines are not able to produce electricity． That means wind power isn't suitable as the only resource of electricity．

Although wind energy has certain disadvantages， there is no reason why we should give up this renewable and clean resource of energy． Wind energy certainly is one of the bight hopes of our future．

Have you noticed the waste bins（垃圾桶）in different colors on the street？Do you often put all the waste in the same bin？It's reported by Changchun Daily that people must do waste sorting（分类）in most places in Changchun at the end of 2019．Waste sorting is a wonderful way to make good use of energy and protect the environment．But do you know how to sort the waste？

Usually，people should sort their waste into four groups；wet，recyclable，harmful and dry．Different kinds of waste should go into different bins．Wet waste means the hings you don't want but pigs can eat，mostly coming from your kitchen．Things that can be used again，such as paper，metal and glass，are recyclable waste．Harmful waste might be dangerous or cause serious pollution，like medicine and batteries（电池）．And any waste that's not wet，recyclable or harmful will go into the dry waste bin．

Different countries are trying different methods to sot the waste．A university in England has invented a smart bin．When people drop their waste into the bin．It can tell what kind of waste it is and sort it correctly．The bin can also compressthe waste to make it smaller in size and take up less space．In South Korea，people have to separate their food waste from other kinds of waste and pay for it．The more food waste they throw away，the more they pay．Japan has the strictest rules for waste sorting in the world．For example，plastic bottles and their caps should go into different bins．

Have you ever heard of e﹣waste，which can be produced every day？How do you deal with your computers，MP4 players and mobile phones when they're broken or you want a new one？

Most people just throw them away．With the development of electric industry，e﹣waste pollution has become a serious problem．According to the United Nations，in 2014，people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of e﹣waste and only recycled 6.5 million tons．The US was the biggest waster，producing 7.1 million tons．China came second，with 6 million tons．

Maybe you pride yourselves on only sleeping a few hours a night．However，are you feeling tired and sleepy throughout the day？Do you have a hard time keeping your eyes open as you study？Have you nodded off while driving？If you can answer"Yes"to any of these，it shows you could not have enough sleep．

It is suggested that most adults need seven to nine hours'sleep．As for teens，they need even more．If you aren't getting enough sleep，you should：

•Avoid caffeine（咖啡因）

You should avoid drinking caffeinated drinks such as coffee，tea and soda for at least 10 hours before you go to bed．

sleeping well．

•Build a healthy sleep environment

With the light on，can you have a good sleep？Of course not，and you'd better keep your bedroom dark and cool．

Are you afraid of going to the dentist（牙医）？ If so， you're not alone．

These fears could just be in our heads， however． According to a recent survey by Martin Tickle， a professor at Manchester University in the UK， the pain isn't felt most of the time in dental surgeries（牙科手术）． In fact． among the 451 interviewed patients，75% reported no pain at all during their visits， including situations when they had their teeth pulled out．

Could it be the sound of the drill（钻头）then？

"I found that the sound of drilling can evokedeep worry in dental patients． Actually they don't have any pain． " Hiroyuki Karibe， a scientist at Nippon Dental University in Tokyo， told the Guardian．

To find the reason why a drill might bring on a racing heart， Karibe divided the volunteers into low﹣fear and high﹣fear groups based on how much they feared a trip to the dentist． Volunteers were played the sound of a drill while their brain activities were watched by a machine．

What Karibe found in the low﹣fear group was increased activity in the areas of the brain relative to auditory processing（听觉处理）， which means， for these people， the sound of dental drills is no different from other sounds

In the high﹣fear group， however， the brain area that was activated（激活）was different． It was the area that carries out a number of duties， including learning， feelings and， most importantly， memory． This means that these volunteers not only heard the sound， but they remembered it﹣they made connections between the sound of a drill and the worry it produced in the past， causing their worry to return．

Understanding how brains reply to the sounds of dentists ' drills could help scientists find ways to make patients more relaxed， according to Karibe， because patients who worry about going to the dentist might keep putting off their visits． But the best way is to keep your teeth healthy．
