A kind of little cars may some day take the place of today’s cars. If everyone drives such cars in the future, there will be less pollution in the car. There will also be more space for parking cars in cities, and the streets will be less crowded. Three such cars can fit in the space now needed for one of the usual size.
The little cars will cost much less to own and to drive. Driving will be safer, too, as these little cars can go only 65 kilometers per hour. The cars of the future will be fine for getting around a city, but they will not be useful for long trips. Little cars will go 450 kilometers before needing to stop for more gasoline.
If big cars are still used along with the small ones, two sets of roads will be needed in the future. Some roads will be used for the big, fast cars and other roads will be needed for the slower, small ones.

【推荐1】Many people like to travel by plane, but I don't like it because an airport(机场）is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off (起飞) and it is often late. You can't open the window. You can't choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to get out of the airport and into the city.
I like traveling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you are late for a train you can catch another one .You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time.
I also like cars. You can start your journey (旅程）when you want to, and you don't need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry (携带）many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.

【推荐1】When you have a problem with your homework, what do you do? Many students used to upload (上传) a picture of the homework to find answers in the apps, which could help them to solve some difficult problems.
Some parents also used the apps to help children with their homework. “It is already challenging for me to solve fifth-grade math questions,” a parent surnamed Lu told online newspaper Sixth Tone. “The Apps can help me to check his homework.” However, not anymore.
On Dec 13, the Ministry of Education said that homework help apps, which allow students to get answers by taking photos and uploading them online, will be removed temporarily (暂时). These apps may make students lazy, affect (影响) their independent thinking and go against the law of education and teaching, the ministry said.
Some online tutoring (辅导) apps may be affected, and they have many users. For example, the Zuoyebang app had more than 100 million users in 2020, according to a report by Xueyan Thinktank. Meanwhile, at the end of 2019, about 8.6 billion searches had been made in the Xiaoyuan Souti app. It solved at least 23.47 million questions each day, reported Global Times.
How badly these apps have influenced younger users! These homework help apps have spoiled (毁掉) many students and they depend on these apps too much. They can’t control themselves to copy the answers in the Apps. As a result, they seem to finish their homework efficiently (有效率地) but actually score poorly in exams.
What is your idea about removing the Apps?

【推荐2】Recently, the Nandagang wetland in Hebei Province has become home to over 300 oriental white storks (东方白鹳), a species under first-class national protection. This number is three times that of the same period last year.
These birds, widely found in China, Japan and Korea in former times, are so rare and special that they are listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (世界自然保护联盟). Therefore, they have strict requirements for their living environment. Only wetlands with clean pools, and little pieces of land with large quantities of food and water can become their habitats.
This large, long-necked bird ranges in height from 60 cm to over 150 cm (2 to 5 feet). The feathers on the body are mainly pure white. The wings are wide and long. All or part of the head and upper neck may be featherless and brightly coloured.
Oriental white storks began to leave their breeding (繁殖) places from late September to early October, forming groups and travelling southward. Along the way, it’s necessary to choose suitable places to rest, and some places can rest for more than 40 days. They often gather in open areas like grasslands, lakes for activities. Most storks are found in groups except during the breeding season. They feed during the day. Most eat small animals caught in areas of water or fields that are not deep, such as small fish, frogs, insects and so on.

【推荐3】The health risks of smoking are well known,but kids and teens continue to smoke. Many young people pick up the habit every year—in fact, 90% of all adult smokers started when they were kids.
You might wonder why people smoke at all. Many people start smoking when they are kids or teens and they try it for many reasons. Maybe all of their friends were doing it or they grew up in a house where all the adults smoked. On the other hand, kids started smoking in order to look cool, act older, lose weight, or feel independent.
But no matter why they started, many smokers（ men, women, boys or girls）wish they could stop. Stopping smoking is hard, though, because there is nicotine （尼古丁） in cigarettes （烟）. Someone can get addicted to（沉溺于） nicotine within days of first using it. When something is addictive, your body and mind will tell you that you need it to feel OK. If you don’t get it, you might feel sick, stressed out, or get angry.
Stopping smoking mostly has two steps. The first step is to deal with your dependence on nicotine and the other is to break the habit of smoking. When you stop smoking, you may have to wait a few days or even weeks before the nicotine finally leaves your body.
Most importantly, we must make sure kids and teens understand the dangers of smoking as early as possible.
