A Good Deed Each Day
Every New Year's Day, millions of people make a resolution, but it usually falls by the wayside within a few months, weeks or even days. However, 26-year-old Luke Cameron is not one of them. The young man decided to do at least one good deed a day, fbr 366 days——and he has not missed yet.
Luke did his first good deed on January 1, 2020. He simply greeted a waitress when he visited a cafe. The next day he bought food and drinks fbr some homeless people. And he followed it up by giving coins to a woman, as she did not have enough to feed a parking meter.
Though most of his kind gestures have been welcomed, Luke says there have been a few awkward (尴尬的)situations. Once, as he was trying to give away a £20 bill to an old lady, her granddaughter expressed doubt about his purpose. Another time he bought a sausage roll for a homeless man, but this man happened to be a vegetarian (素食者).
Luke has carefully recorded his good deeds in an online diary. Most of them have been about helping people with small things—like taking out the garbage fbr an old neighbour or
helping a disabled lady pick out a dress for a party. However, the young man has also spent nearly £4,000 of his own money buying gifts for the children in need.
Luke's kind deeds won him a good reputation (名声).He was offered a job fbr which he can earn £35,000 a year. Now the young man plans to continue doing good deeds well after the first 366 are done, on December 31, 2020.

Classrooms Are Growing Greener
A "green classroom,^ used to refer to the color of paint on the wall. But today's green classrooms are greener than that! New "green" classrooms help schools save money and provide clean environments where students learn better.
Many classrooms are going green by adding a group of solar panels (太阳能电池板)to their roofs to absorb the sun5s rays. The solar panels collect energy from the sun and use it to power lights and computers. They create at least as much electricity as the classrooms use. In addition, new lighting and air systems can be programmed to lower energy costs and water use.
Many new "green" classrooms are built using recycled materials. Some even use small pieces of material from blue jeans to cover walls and ceilings. This cuts heat and air conditioning bills, and it helps to soundproof (隔音)classrooms, too.
Green schools include many other new ideas. Some classrooms are painted with special smell-free paints that help improve indoor air. Some use no glues as they add chemical smells to the air. Others use three sheets of glass in windows and skylights to help keep classrooms warm in cold weather and let in a lot of natural daylight.
Experts say the benefits of building greener classrooms go beyond cost savings. Studies show that a healthful environment with good air quality can reduce colds and flu by more than 50 percent. That means fewer sick days fbr students and teachers. Studies have also shown that natural light and other green parts of the classroom improve students, learning and test scores.

The Inuit People
❶ People often call them Eskimos (爱斯基摩人),but they prefer to be called Inuit, which means "humans" in their own language. The Inuit people learn English or French at school, but they speak their own language at home. Children are also given lessons on their traditional activities at school in their own language.
❷ The most famous kind of house the Inuit make is a small hut called igloo. The hut is a temporary shelter. It is used during hunting trips in winter. Today, most Inuit live in modem houses with heating systems. They also have television sets, telephones and the Internet.
❸ Traditionally, the Inuit eat food rich in protein (蛋白质)like raw meat. Raw meat contains more vitamins than cooked meat, and is easier to eat in the Inuit's cold environment where lighting up a wood fire fbr cooking is impossible. Nowadays, the Inuit shop at the supermarket, drink Coca Cola and use the refrigerator.
❹ In summer, men fish and hunt from their small boat made of wood or sealskin. In winter, they use dog sleds (雪橇).They sit still for hours waiting fbr a seal to pop its head up from a hole dug out of the ice. Today, it is much easier to hunt with guns, but the Inuit still prefer to use traditional weapons like throwing sticks.

The Use of Power
Power is expressed in a number of ways in our communication with others. People with equal power tend to stand together or sit in a relaxed position while discussing something casually. When there are power differences, the person with less power has to stand. 26
People with more power tend to occupy more space. Key managers in an organization have more office space than do their subordinates (下级).The rich and powerful typically have bigger homes and yards than do the poor and less powerful. 27
The use of time reflects the amount of power people have. People with less power are often asked to wait to see those with more. 28 The employed must wait to see their boss.
People who have more power are much more confident and precise when they speak. Individuals with less power are more likely to hesitate when talking. 29 They might say, T may not know anything about this and probably should not say anything, but I think the solution may be…"
Individuals with more power typically interrupt those with less power more often. Within an academic setting, instructors with a higher academic rank interrupt those with a lower one. 30 In conversations, men tend to show more power than women.
