make the Earth greener. It's not only for the planet but also for the future of mankind [m n ka nd].

Saturday, 15 May Sunny
Dear diary,
I got up early this morning. I went to work in our neighbourhood (neighbour) garden with other kids. Uncle Li taught
us how to plant sunflowers. We tried it after that.
I made a cloth bag out of my old green T-shirt in the afternoon. I gave it to my mum.
"Wow, it's beautiful! I really (real) like it!"
"Let's go green in our daily (day) life!" I said.
"Good idea!" my mum gave (give) me a thumbs-up(竖起大拇指；赞成).
I was tired but happy today.

VII. Answer the questions.（根据短文内容回答下列问题)
“More young people should have science lessons at school and university (大 学 ).”
Hazel Wallace, a Science teacher from London, said at a meeting for university students
last weekend. “Science can change the world and make people live better. We need more
people who want to teach science.”
But there was bad news from Dr. Benson, a university science teacher. “There’s a real problem with science teaching
in schools. About 35% physics (物理) teachers in schools don’t have a physical degree (物理学学位). Not enough people
are studying Science at university and this means that there are not enough science teachers.”
Mrs Wallace didn’t agree. “It’s true that the number of science pupils fell between 2000 and 2010,” she said. “But
now the numbers are going up again. The number of students who study science lessons at school is much higher now than
it was in 2010.”
Dr. Benson thought that numbers were still too low, “We should interest the children at the age of 12-16 in studying
science. There’s still a problem with science lessons in UK classrooms. Some of them are too difficult or boring for
students. As for teachers, old ways of teaching have to change. We must change the way most young people think about
Science. Science can also be fun. Students can take part in more science activities at school.

last weekend. “Science can change the world and make people live better. We need more
people who want to teach science.”
But there was bad news from Dr. Benson, a university science teacher. “There’s a real problem with science teaching
in schools. About 35% physics (物理) teachers in schools don’t have a physical degree (物理学学位). Not enough people
are studying Science at university and this means that there are not enough science teachers.”
Mrs Wallace didn’t agree. “It’s true that the number of science pupils fell between 2000 and 2010,” she said. “But
now the numbers are going up again. The number of students who study science lessons at school is much higher now than
it was in 2010.”
Dr. Benson thought that numbers were still too low, “We should interest the children at the age of 12-16 in studying
science. There’s still a problem with science lessons in UK classrooms. Some of them are too difficult or boring for
students. As for teachers, old ways of teaching have to change. We must change the way most young people think about
Science. Science can also be fun. Students can take part in more science activities at school.
