　　This is a true story about a boy who, the world might say, was a terrible underachiever. While inthe eighth grade, he failed subjects repeatedly. High school wasn’t much better; he flunkedLatin, algebra, English, and received a grade of zero in physics. The boy managed to make theschool golf team, but he lost the most important golf match of the season.

　　It’s not that his peers(同龄人) disliked this boy; it’s just that they never really seemed to noticehim much. Even “Hellos” in the hall were a rarity. Out of all the failures in his life, there wassomething that did hold great importance to this boy, his love of drawing. Although in highschool, the cartoons he submitted to the yearbook were rejected, once out of school, the boywas so sure of his artistic talent that he approached Walt Disney Studios with drawing works. Iwish I could say the studios loved his work and immediately hired him, but such was not thecase; another huge rejection.

　　Despite his lack of successes, this boy did not give up. He then decided to write his ownautobiography in cartoons, about a little boy who was regarded as a loser and a nobody.

　　The name of this boy was Charles Schulz, the creator of the famous Charlie Brown and comicdog Snoopy.

　　In life, it is sometimes easy to feel like a nobody. We pass hundreds of people on the street onour way to work, or walk through a faceless crowd in a mall, and no one seems to notice orcare. Deep inside, we may know we are special and unique and have lots to offer, but unlesssomeone takes the time to look our way and give us a chance, we may feel worthless, just likeCharlie Brown who couldn’t even manage to fly a kite or kick a football properly.

The Pew team gives the information it gathers to port officials to help them decide ifthey should take action against a ship. Tony Long says he would like to be able to provide portofficials all over the world with clear lists.

　　读写任务

　　According to a research, cooking emissions pollute the air. To reduce the air pollution, the cityof Kunming, following the example of Chongqing, required restaurants to use clean fuel toreplace firewood.

　　I am totally in favour of the measures taken by the Kunming government. Although we maylose a traditional way of cooking, we’ll get cleaner air. Anyway, a blue sky is far more importantthan a delicious dish/cuisine.

　　Just like many places in China, there also exist the phenomena of air pollution in the placewhere I live. In the neighborhood, rubbish is burned directly before being classified andprocessed, which pollutes the air severely. On the roads, cars and trucks fill the roads, givingoff waste gas. In the chemical plants not far away, harmful gases are emitted without beingdealt with.

　　As middle school students, we should do our share in fighting against the air pollution. Firstly,we are supposed to go to school by bike or public transportation rather than by car. Besides,we can plant trees in and around the city as they absorb carbon dioxide from the air. Last butnot least, we should arouse people's awareness of environmental protection and call on themto make a contribution to stopping the air pollution.
