  Cocuk Bayrami
     Each April 23，Turkey celebrates Cocuk Bayrami，or Children's Day.Turkish leader Mustafa Kemal Atatürk declared the holiday in 1920，as Turkey was becoming an independent nation after the fall of the Ottoman Empire，to symbolize children were the future of the new nation.Children all over Turkey dress up in special costumes or the national costumes for Cocuk Bayrami.Many children perform in plays or musicals.The centerpiece of Cocuk Bayrami takes place in Turkey's capital，Ankara，where children from around the world sing and dance in a spectacular pageant（盛大慶典）.

• 3．If you really want to go green，here's good news：eating green foods is good for you.The very foods with a high carbon dioxide cost- dairy products，processed snacks - also tend to be filled with fat and calories.A green diet would be mostly vegetables and fruits，whole grains，fish and lean meats like chicken - a diet that's eco- and waistline- friendly.Eating green foods can be healthier and beneficial to the climate.
     It may be hard to believe that a meal at McDonalds produces more carbon dioxide than that your trip to a faraway place produces.More than 37% of the world's land is used for agriculture，much of which was once forested.Deforestation（砍伐樹林） is a major source of carbon dioxide.The fertilizer（肥料） and machinery needed on a modern farm also have a large carbon footprint，as does the network of ships and trucks that brings the food from the farm to your plate.
     The most efficient way to reduce the carbon footprint of your menu is to eat less meat，especially beef.Raising cattle takes a lot more energy than growing the equivalent（相等的） amount of grains，fruits or vegetables.What's more，the majority of cattle in the U.S.are fed on grains and the fertilizer used to grow grains creates separate environmental problems.
     Focus on eating foods lower down the food chain，with more plants and fruits and less meat and fewer dairy products.It's simple.We can change today what goes into our bodies for the health of our planet and ourselves.
  
  （1）According to the passage，eating green foods will

  .
  A．protect the animals from being killed
  B．promote the development of agriculture
  C．help us lose weight and keep self-confidence
  D．be good for our health and make a change of the climate
  （2）What will not lead to carbon dioxide in the agriculture？

  
  A．Deforestation.
  B．Grains.
  C．Machinery.
  D．Fertilizer.
  （3）In the author's opinion，the most efficient way to reduce carbon dioxide is to

  .
  A．eat more vegetables than meat
  B．stop raising cattle
  C．plant more grains
  D．use less fertilizer
  （4）What is the passage mainly about？

  
  A．The benefits of eating green foods.
  B．How to reduce carbon dioxide.
  C．The change of our menu.
  D．The ways of keeping healthy.

• 4．Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history．
     Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers，for food，for sport，and simply because they were in the way．Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the world forever．Hundreds more are on the danger list today．About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger．
     Why should people care？Because we need animals．And because once they are gone，there will never be any more．

     For example，when farmers killed large numbers of hawks（老鷹），the farmers' stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice．Why？Because hawks eat rats and mice．With no hawks to keep down their numbers，the rats and mice multiplied（繁殖） quickly．
     Luckily，some people are working to help save the animals．Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem．And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger．
     Quite a few countries have passed laws．These laws forbid the killing of any animals or plants on danger list．Otherwise，the number of some animals in danger is growing．
