Wildlife faces threats from habitat destruction, pollution and other human actions. Although protecting wildlife can seem difficult at times, even small actions in your own neighborhood can help protect many different animals. As the saying goes, “Think globally and act locally.” You can protect wildlife for future generations.

Create wildlife-friendly areas in your backyard. When choosing your lawn and landscaping, choose native plants that can provide food or living places for native wildlife. This will also help cut down on pollution. Add bird or bat houses to your yard or garden to attract these species and offer places to them to live in.

Avoid disrupting (扰乱) the natural ecosystem in our area. Non-native plants or animals can destroy habitats, particularly if there is no natural predator (捕食性动物) to keep the species in a certain amount. They can kill or disturb native plants that provide food and living places for wildlife.

Practice a greener lifestyle. By saving water and fossil fuels, you will be helping to protect the wildlife around you. Take public transportation when you can, turn off electric devices when you’re not using them, take shorter showers and keep your heat at or below 20 during the winter. Become knowledgeable about what can cause global warming, which disrupts migration patterns and habitats.

Buy products that are wildlife friendly. Avoid products that are made from threatened or endangered animals. Keep in mind that some endangered animals are killed by traps, or hunters who are after other wildlife within the same habitat.

Talk to or write to policymakers about protecting wildlife. Write letters to a local newspaper. Discuss ways to help animals with friends and family members.

Limit the family size. Population growth is one of the major factors in habitat destruction. By living in established city limits and limiting the family size to around two children per family, the earth’s population will stabilize (稳定) and native habitats can be protected.

【推荐2】An effective team defines (定义) its own success. It becomes the backbone of any organization’s positive growth and development.     1     Here is the answer.

Putting a plan into action requires a team to complete multiple tasks and then achieve the set goal. For a team to know its agenda and direction, it needs its leader. However, a leader may not always be on the right track, In such a case, a good team player is the one who tables opinions in an effective manner,making the point well understood and not just voiced.     2    

Good team players enjoy working with their teammates. They are not merely willing to share the knowledge they have, learn from someone’s experience and add to their pool of information.     3    They take the initiative to keep other members informed about the latest developments and motivate the rest of the team, if the need arises.

Good and active listeners are significant in a team.     4     Good listening skills mean the ability to absorb, comprehend, analyze, and consider points or working methods. Even when a member explodes with anger, being calm makes them good team players, as opposed to those who would act defensively.

    5     They are committed to their common work and make efforts to overcome difficulties, sharing workload, working extra shifts and burning some midnight oil. They just do whatever it takes to meet a deadline,never sitting passively waiting for opportunities or work to walk up to them.

Essentially, these qualities define a good team player. Winning as a team is more important than individual honors, as that is what will define an individual as a true winner.

A.Is teamwork that essential?
B.But what makes a good team player?
C.Good team players fill their leisure time with fun.
D.They also show strong interest in the assigned projects.
E.Good team players play an active role in taking up challenges.

【推荐3】What is the connection between violence and sports? Psychologists(心理学家) say that there are many reasons for violence at sports events. One is alcohol(酒精).     1     When people drink, they are more likely to do abnormal things. Psychologist Dennis Brock says, “Quiet people become loud. Normally nonviolent people become destructive. ” 

David Sampson, a sports sociologist, agrees. “These are often celebratory riots(暴乱)— a large number of very happy people mixed in with large amounts of alcohol. They don’t often seem dangerous in the beginning, but things get violent quickly. ”

    2     When individuals are in a large group of people, they can lose their sense of personal responsibility. Edward Hirt, a social psychologist, says that research shows that people do things in crowds that they would never do alone. People in crowds feel that no one knows who they are. Crowds also make people feel powerful. They stop making personal decisions.     3     Social psychologists call this a “mob mentality”.  

Dave Zarifis, head of public safety at Northern Iowa University says, “Some people don’t even come to celebrate.     4     Someone does something stupid, and it grows from there. You get a mob mentality. People think it’s OK to do almost anything. They think, ’There are so many of us and not enough of them. ’ ” 

Social psychologist Dr Sharon Kennedy says that there are a few things officials can do to prevent violence.     5    Officials should also think of games as “big parties”.   Then they will prepare differently. Kennedy says that in Great Britain they are controlling the problem with cameras in all the stadiums. “When you know someone is watching, you are much less likely to behave badly. ”

A.They just follow the crowd.
B.Many fans drink a lot at games.
C.They want to drink hard and make trouble.
D.Another reason for violence at sports events is the crowd itself.
E.Making sure that an area is not overcrowded is very important.
F.Be careful when you are at a stadium because there are cameras there.
G.Never follow blindly no matter how many people are doing the same thing.
