We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it is harmful to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. Here are some ideas for you. Reduce

Reduce means \buy something new, think whether it is really necessary—or maybe the old one is still useful. Reuse

Reuse means \something is broken, we should repair it instead of throwing it away and buying a new one. Don't use a paper cup or a paper bag. It's better to use a china(瓷) cup and a lunch box because you can use them again. Recycle

Recycle means \into something else, it's better than throwing things away or burning them. So please remember these words: reduce, reuse and recycle. 1. What is the passage about?

Water is the root(根本) of life. No one can live without water. On the one hand, although seventy-five percent of the world is covered with water, about ninety-seven percent of it is sea water, or salt water. So the water we could drink is really limited. On the other hand, because the number of people in the world is becoming larger and larger, more and more drinking water is needed. We should do something to save water in our everyday life.

● Never pour away waste water when there may be another use for it such as watering a plant or a garden, or for cleaning.

You may have heard of snipers(狙击手), or seen snipers in movies and computer games. They are people who can shoot and kill from a long distance. But do you know that we have real snipers in our police?

Early this month, a man kidnapped a little girl with a knife in Beijing. Police came to talk to him, but he didn't let the girl go and was hurting the girl. A sniper shot him dead.

In Beijing, there are over 300 police snipers. They work 24 hours a day, seven days a week to protect the capital.

How do snipers get trained? What are their lives like? An expert(专家) with the Beijing sniper team shares some of the team's secrets with us. Q: How do you choose snipers?

A: We choose snipers from the Beijing police. There are no strict rules about the height and weight of our snipers, but they must have very good eyesight. The weapon(武器) they use is around 3.5kg. Sometimes snipers need to hold it for hours. So, snipers need to have a strong body. They also need to pass written psychology(心理) tests.

Q: What is the most important quality of a sniper?

A: A good state of mind. Snipers need to be calm all the time. Sometimes, they may get ready for shooting for a whole day. They cannot talk, eat or drink during that time.

Q: What kind of training do snipers usually get?

A: The practice they often get is 100 meters distance shooting. They practice shooting in all kinds of weather, including windy and snowy days.

Q: Is it possible that a sniper may miss his target(目标)?
