Since 2017, short videos have gotten millions of views (关注) online. Many people create and share short videos on popular video apps like Douyin and Kuaishou. You can even add music and special effects (特效) to your videos. The videos are 15 seconds to a few minutes long. They show people doing activities like cooking, exercising and singing.

Teenagers especially enjoy these videos. More than 50 percent of Grade 7 and 8 students said they enjoy watching these short videos. About 47 percent of them have posted their own videos, according to a recent report by the China National Youth Palace Association.

However the videos can also cause trouble. Some students spend too much time watching them and not enough time studying. Some videos are vulgar and not suitable for teenagers.

Since the first Earth Day in 1970, Americans have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment. “We didn’t know at that time that there even was an environment, especially we didn’t know that there was a problem with it,” says Bruce Anderson, president of Earth Day USA.

But what began as nothing important in public affairs (公共事件) has grown into a social movement. Business people, political leaders, university professors, and especially millions of grass-roots (草根) Americans are taking part in the movement. “The understanding has increased many, many times,” says Gaylord Nelson, the former governor from Wisconsin, who thought up the first Earth Day.

According to US government reports, emissions from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons. The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced (减少) from 40 to 9. Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with, the world is a safer and healthier place. A kind of “green thinking” has become part of practices.

Great improvement has been achieved. In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs; today in 1995 there are about 6,600. Advanced lights, motors, and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution.

Twenty-five years ago, there were hardly any education programs for environment. Today, it’s hard to find a public school, university, or law school that does not have such a kind of program. “Until we do that, nothing else will change!” says Bruce Anderson.

1.According to Anderson, before 1970. Americans had little idea about ________.

A.the social movement B.recycling techniques

C.environmental problems D.the importance of Earth Day

2.Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from?

A.The business men. B.Common people.

C.Government officials. D.University professors.

3.What have Americans achieved in environmental protection?

A.They have cut car emissions to the lowest.

B.They have solved their environmental problems.

C.They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities.

D.They have reduced pollution by taking active actions.

4.What does the underlined word “emissions” mean in the passage?

A.热量 B.尾气 C.燃油 D.污染

5.What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last paragraph?

A.Education. B.Planning. C.Green living. D.Green thinking.
