People usually set off firecrackers (爆竹) to celebrate the Spring Festival.But because of the smog, this year seemed very quiet.It was really different.A man called Zhang Wei said that his friends and he hadn't set off a single firecracker.

“We all suffered from last month's smog.If we don't call an end to the firecrackers, the environment will get worse and worse during the holiday.” Said Zhang Wei.He called on more people to set off fewer firecrackers during this year's Spring Festival holiday by putting up a notice in his neighborhood.

More Chinese looked forward to celebrating the holiday in a greener way.They decided not to set off firecrackers.They also decided not to waste food.They said that the new celebrations sounded fashionable.

To clean the sky, more than ten provinces including Guangdong, Zhejiang and Jiangsu have started to use national 4 standard (标准), which is expected to reduce (减少) vehicle emission (车辆排放) by 30% to 50%.Beijing even has started to use the stricter national 5 standard.

25、   You may have wondered why there are fish tanks (at many doctor's and dentist's offices.Actually these medical professionals are trying to keep their working areas less stressful with the help of fish tanks.Because of the soft bubbling (冒泡声) from the fish tanks,their patients are expected to feel less nervous or worried when staying there.

The sound of running water can make people feel relaxed.For this reason,places where water keeps running are often considered good choices for people to have deep thoughts and stay relaxed in mind.Even a small tabletop fountain (喷泉) can make a workspace more relaxing.Unlike loud noises,repeated natural sounds remind us that everything is OK." These slow but soft sounds are just the ones that bring us no harm,"said Orfeu Buxton,a professor at Pennsylvania State University." It seems like they are saying,' Don't worry ;don't worry ;don't worry."

Besides bringing a sense of peace to your indoor space,a fountain can also prevent noises from coming inside.I recently had a small indoor fountain for my workspace.I enjoy the fountain even when I'm not working at home.

If you want to have an indoor fountain too,there are plenty of wonderful ones on sale,which may cost you a lot.You can try making one yourself,using some inexpensive materials,like I did.And you will always keep it around ---- 1,000 doctor's offices can't be wrong about the relaxing effects of running water.

27、   Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Some heroes, like Lucca, are not even human. Lucca is a 12-year-old US Marine Crops (海军陆战队) dog. On April 5, Lucca received an award for her brave military service, during which she lost one of her front legs. Lucca is now retired and lives in California.

Lucca was in London, England, to receive the Dickin Medal from the British charity People’s Dispensary for Sick Animals (PDSA).

Lucca is the first US Marine Crops dog to receive the medal. She and her owner, Gunnery Willingham, traveled to London, England, for the award ceremony. “Lucca is very intelligent and had an amazing drive for work.” Willingham said.

But Lucca did not escape injury. On March 23, 2012, she was on patrol in Afghanistan’s Helmand province. An explosive device was set off under her. Lucca lost her front left leg right away. She also suffered serious burns on her body.
