Bradford City Matters
Welcome to the winter edition of City Matters.
“Don’t Drop It; Stop it!”
Put rubbish in your wheelie bin (有轮垃圾箱).
You must put your rubbish in your wheelie bin to keep your environment clean. Don’t pile your rubbish up in your house or garden—use a wheelie bin or one of our largest bins.
You can buy a wheelie bin from our Waste Management Section at 01943 874 122.
You can tell us about mice or rubbish in your area by phoning our Public Health Unit at 01943 874 146. Dropping rubbish can be expensive. Did you know that you can get a $5 fine for dropping wubbish on the streets? Our council officers are on the streets of Bradford looking for people who drop rubbish. They will fine people who drop litter. This is part of our “Don’t Drop It; Stop It!” campaign.
Don’t fill your bin—recycle.
Just think how full your bin gets over the holidays. To reduce your waste:
◆Say “no” to unwanted bags. Take your own bags to the supermarket or reuse old ones. Get your free shopping bag from our Advice Centre.
◆Recycle your waste. Take bottles to your local recycling centre.
◆Buy recycled things. Cards and paper are good examples.
Our competition winners
As part of our “Don’t Drop It; Stop It!” campaign, community groups from the north, south, east and west of the city—500 volunteers—entered our competition to clean up their area. The goal was to make the city cleaner for those who live, work, shop or play there. The four winners were: High Trees Parents Group, South Bradford Community Project, The Bridge Community Association and Forest Youth Group.
21. If you have a problem with mice in your area, you can call ________.
A. 01943 874 122 B. 01941 824146
C. 01943 874 146 D. 01941 824 122
22. From the Advice Centre, you can get _______.
A. two wheelie bins B. a free young tree
C. a free shopping bag D. some recycled paper
23. What do we know about the competition?
A. There were five winners. B. It was held in the spring.
C. It failed to reach its goal. D. 500 volunteers took part in it.
24. Where might you see this material?
A. In a local newspaper. B. In a health report.
C. In a travel magazine. D. In a storybook.

What if your parents are too busy to cook dinner, so they give you a bag of candy…?
That’s exactly what some parents did in the 1920s in America. Back then, stores sold more kinds of candy than they do now. Most people thought it was as good for them as a healthy dinner. Many scientists also thought candy was good for people’s health.
Now, of course, we know that sugar isn’t good for us. But could it really be that bad if it tastes so delicious? Sadly, yes.
“Everyone loves sugar,” says Dr. Robert Lusting, a sugar expert. “But sugar has a dark side.” Take breakfast, for example. Sugary cereal (谷类植物) gives you energy, but only for a short time. Then you start to feel sleepy. Foods like oatmcal (麦片) and fruit give your body energy for hours. And eating a lot of sugar can cause health problems, including serious illnesses. These days, more and more children are getting illnesses caused by eating too much sugar.
The good news is that changing your diet can help—and fast. Lusting recently did a study that helped overweight children eat less sugar. All of the children who cut out sugar had fewer health problems in just 10 days.
Knowing the risks of eating too much sugar can help you make healthy food choices. Does this mean you have to give up sugar completely? No. It just means you should make sure you are eating plenty of healthy foods, like fresh fruit and vegetables. Most of us can eat candy sometimes, but just make sure it’s not your dinner.
25. In the 1920s in America, candy ___________.
A. came in fewer kinds than today
B. was often eaten after dinner
C. cost a lot more than today
D. was regarded as healthy
26. What does the underlined word “diet” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. Energy. B. Food.
C. Nutrition. D. Vitamin.
27. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Kids Like Candy B. The Truth about Sugar
C. The Importance of Breakfast D. Dangers of Being Overweight
C
“Color, color, color!” are the words of artist Eric Carle. Eric is like the king in the world of children’s books. He has written over 70 children’s books. His most famous book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, is common on children’s bookshelves all over the world. What most people don’t know is that Eric also makes art for adults, which is called “ArtArt”. People didn’t know about it, because he didn’t show it to the public until he was 84 years old!
Like Eric’s children’s books, his “ArtArt” is full of bright and clear color. He says he loves colors so much because he missed it during the war in Germany. Eric was born in New York in 1929, but moved to Germany with his family when he was 6. When he was 10, World War II began. He noticed that all the houses and buildings in his town were painted gray, brown or dark green. It was a sad time, and it seemed like there was no color anywhere.
At the end of the war, “when color came back”, Eric explains, “I just loved it so much. I keep saying that I wish our eyes could see more color. Color is a very important part of my work.”
That’s true. Eric paints bright colors on paper, cuts out shapes, and then glues them onto another piece of paper. This method is called collage (拼贴艺术). In fact, it is what led Eric to his “ArtArt”.
Eric’s “ArtArt” includes large collages as well as paintings, photographs and even costumes. In all these works, he uses all kinds of colors-everything from purple to light green to orange. Now that’s a lot of color!
28. When did Eric show “ArtArt” to the public?
A. In 1929. B. In 1939.
C. In 1997. D. In 2013.
29. Why did Eric feel sad during World War II?
A. Because he could hardly see bright color.
B. Because he had to join the army to fight.
C. Because he couldn’t draw very good paintings.
D. Because he lived a very poor life with his parents.
30. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Collage plays an important part in Eric’s book “ArtArt”.
B. Children know little about The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
C. Eric has created more books for adults than for children.
D. Eric moved to Germany with his family when he was 10.

How to Write an Email
While many people are accessible by email, sometimes it is difficult to determine how exactly to write an email to them. 31
Write an appropriate subject line. The subject line should tell the recipient (接收者) immediately what the email is about. 32 Remember that your wording also has to be brief.
33 It is best to be more formal rather than informal, so when writing to someone you have never met or written to before, a “Dear Jane Smith” is appropriate. When addressing someone whom you are a little familiar with, a “Dr. Smith” is okay until they tell you to address them by their first name, in which case a simple “Jane” will be okay.
State your purpose at the beginning. Within the first two sentences of your email, your recipient should know exactly why you are writing to him. Sometimes an introduction may have to precede (先于) the sentence that states why you are writing and sometimes it has to follow.
Use appropriate language. You may be used to using informal language in certain social settings. 34 Even when dealing with colleagues or friends you are familiar with, do not immediately fall back on informal language.
Keep it simple. People may get dozens and even hundreds of emails a day. 35 In that way, they can save much of their time when reading emails.
A. Use proper greetings.
B. Express your ideas clearly.
C. Here are some tips for you to follow.
D. You should avoid spelling and grammar mistakes.
E. Be as specific as possible when writing the subject.
F. However, an email may not be the best place to use such language.
G. It is always easier for them if you keep your email as short and brief as possible.

Dear Tom,
How are things going?
There will be a Chinese chess competition to be held in our school hall next Saturday. The aim of the competition is to promote the awareness of the traditional Chinese culture among the students. I know you are very fond of Chinese chess, so I’m writing to invite you to take the opportunity to appreciate it. By watching those who are skilled at chess competing with each other, not only will you learn something about the history of it, but also the techniques of playing it.
If you come, please contact me in advance. I’ll provide you with some necessary help. Wish you a wonderful time.

Through the efforts of the Recycling Club, our school now recycles eighty percent of the paper and ninety of the cans and bottles used on our campus. This is a big improvement! Three years ago, we recycled about only half as much. However, even though these are great numbers, we can always do more! Starting in October, thanks to the Recycling Club, students will be able to throw food waste and paper food packaging into recycling containers. This includes used coffee cups and any leftover food. The containers will be located just outside the cafeteria, and you will recognize them by their bright green color. We hope that this new project will allow us to reduce the amount of trash that our campus throws out. Every Tuesday, Friday and Sunday, all of the food waste will be collected by the Gardening Club and used to make special soil for our campus garden. Not only will we be helping the environment, but we’ll also help the Gardening Club save hundreds of dollars a year by not having to buy soil and fertilizer for the garden. So, next time you are leaving the cafeteria with food, please don’t throw them into the trash can. Use the green containers! Also, consider joining the Recycling Club or the Gardening Club and start saving the planet.
