【推荐1】Do you like go running? Some people think running is boring. But there are ways to make it more exciting – for example, “plogging”.

Plogging is a new exercise trend（趋势）from Sweden. The name comes from the words “pick up ” and “jogging”. It means picking up trash（垃圾）while running.

Ploggers go outside with a pair of gloves and a trash bag. They stop to pick up trash as they run. Nobody likes to see trash while they’re doing exercise. This new trend brings environmental protection (环境保护) and healthy living together.

Plogging may even be better for you than just running, since bending down (弯腰) to pick up trash is another kind of exercise itself. So try to plogging with your friends on your way to school. You can stay healthy and keep the environment clean at the same time.

【推荐1】On a sunny day last January，people went to Las Vegas to see small cars that looked more like colorful eggs than ordinary ones. The automobiles were electric，rolled on two wheels instead of four and held only two passengers. Thanks to their small size，six of the cars would fit in a parking spot. If the idea of parking such a small car makes you nervous，don't worry. These cars can park themselves and return to their owners when called by a cell phone.

The automobile is called the EN­V. It is built by the car company General Motors，or GM，and points to what future cars might be like. One day，such small electric cars might safely shuttle people around，especially in crowded cities.

Scientists and engineers are finding new ways to make cars safer and smarter and use less energy. New cars may help your health by reminding you to take medicine. If it's electric，your car may send you a text reminding you to plug(插上)it in. Cars will talk to other cars，your computer，your phone and almost any other device(设备).They'll help drivers save energy and watch out for other drivers and walkers.

This is the future of automobiles: safer，smarter and more energy-saving. They might even drive themselves down the highway or through a city. You can sit back and enjoy the ride.

Companies can be fined up to 5,000 yuan. What do people think of the law? Let’s have a look.

【推荐3】Is advertisement (广告) really necessary? Billions (十亿) of dollars are spent on it every year, so it must be important. After all, it’s a busy world. You have to advertise to get people’s attention to sell products!

Not every company (公司) thinks that way. However, the NO-AD company doesn’t advertise in traditional ways. It sells its products by word of mouth. In this way, they can save money and keep costs down, which makes the products cheaper for customers.

“Word-of-mouth advertising” happens when one person tells another about a good experience with a product or service. That next person then tells another friend or family member. And so a chain of information is created.

Usually, advertisers talk about how good their product is. Although they say things like “Everyone loves this product”, it can sound unconvincing. It’s much more believable to hear about a product from a family member or friend who has used it and liked it.

Word-of-mouth advertising has other advantages, too. It’s free and a company doesn’t have to create a complex (复杂的) business plan to do it. Here is some advice for small businesses about word-of-mouth advertising:

●Be prepared to talk about your company at any time. You never know who you will meet. Always carry business cards.

●Only say good things about your company. Don’t say bad things about your company.

●Help other companies by recommending (推荐) people to them. The more you help others, the more good luck will come back to you and that’s good business.
