I. __________________________________________________

Greenhouse gases, cars, and coal are some of the f actors

that cause global warming. When we burn wood, coal, or

gasoline in our cars, we release a gas called carbon dioxide.

It traps some of the energ y f rom the earth and doesn't let

the energ y go back out into space.

When carbon dioxide in the air goes up, the earth heats up.

That is the start of global warming.

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. There are several other

greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide is responsible f or about

half of our global warming and all the other gases are

responsible f or the other half .

III. ______________________________

Scientists think that temperatures will

go up between 2 and 6 degrees over

Scientists around the globe agree that we all must do our share to take care of our planet. This means

making changes to our daily lives to reduce global warming and reducing the use of chemicals that deplete the Earth'sprotective ozone layer.

Green is a term that many people use to talk about taking care of the planet and not overusing the resources that we all share. If youwant to make a difference, the best way to start is to follow thesethree principles:

Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle

Reduce means to use less of everything: less energy, less paper, lessgas, and less water. It means to ride a bike or drive a hybrid car,and to turn off the water when you are brushing your teeth.

Amazing CreaturesWritten by Isabelle Tin-Aung

There are amazing and interesting creatures in the animal kingdom. Some of these creatures doincredible things with their bodies.

Look at the chameleon. This lizard can change its skin color to match itssurroundings. Why does it do this? Sometimes it’s because it’s angry. Andsometimes it’s because it’s meeting another animal in a friendly way.

The grizzly bear is another interesting creature. These bearslive in countries where winters are very cold. One of the things the grizzly bear does is hibernate in the winter. Hibernating is when an animal goes into a deepsleep. The bear hibernates during the winter because the weather is very cold. Theground freezes and food is difficult to find. Sleeping helps these animals survive inthe difficult winter. Grizzly bears can sleep for up to seven months with no foodor water!

An amazing underwater creature is the flying fish. You already know that fish

come in lots of shapes and colors, but they all do three important things.

All fish live in water.All fish swim using their fins.All fish use their gills to get oxygen from the water.

Flying fish are a little different from ordinary fish. These fish have “wings” to help them fly outof the water. They make long, flying jumps out of the water. Why? Because big fish like to eatthem! The big fish can’t see the flying fish when they’re in the air.

Blue Jeans

www.bluejeans.com

Welcome to blue-jeans.com

Do you know where your blue jeans come from? Read this simple but amazing story.

Imagine it’s the year 1853. Mr. Levi Strauss arrives in San Francisco and he opens a store. He

has many customers who often visit the store. One of his customers is Mr. Jacob Davis. He

usually buys shirts and pants, but he needs his pants to be stronger. What can he do?

Suddenly, he has a brilliant idea: he puts metal rivets on the pockets.

His pants now look very nice and original and are an instant success. Many people want to buy

pants like these. So, Jacob now needs a business partner and asks Mr. Levi Strauss to be his partner.

They are very good friends and go together to get a patent for the design. They get patent #139,121

from the US Patent and Trademark Office 20 years later, in 1873. Strauss and Davis never imagined

that they were going to design the most popular jeans on earth!

(Latin name delphinidae ) are aquatic mamma ls and the y can

s wim in the ocean at speeds of 35 ki lometers per hour and

the y can a lso di ve. Do lphins are found in man y parts of the

world and usua ll y li ve in groups ca l led schoo ls or pods. The y

are a lso ver y socia b le anima ls and the y are famous f or their

inte l ligence. Scientists of ten do studies on do lphins and weno w kno w that the y can communicate in man y dif ferent

wa ys. For examp le, the y can imitate actions and understand

artif icia l s ym bo lic language, but the y can’t produce human

ver ba l language.

Technology news

A well-known company is going to sell musical trainers to help youkeep running! When the runner starts to slow down, the shoes

will play songs with a faster rhythm – for example, moving from a rockballad to hip hop – in order to inspire the runner to go faster. A lasersensor in the sole of the shoes will calculate the runner’s pace and willsend a signal to a receiver attached to an iPod®. The iPod® will displaytime, calories burned and distance covered and will also transmit thisinformation to the runner via headphones. The running shoes will cost

around $260 and will be in stores in the fall.

This bicycle, made of nylon reinforced with fiberglass willrevolutionize the way we travel, and it will soon be in stores. It

folds up in 15 seconds, and it weighs just one kilo – so you can carry itin your backpack. It won’t be much good for long journeys because itwill only go at 20 kph, but it will be perfect for getting from home tothe bus stop or from the subway station to home. It will cost around$220 and will be available in stores before the end of the year.
