Even if you shop with plastic bags, always remember to recycle them. Most families don’t realize the importance of eco-friendly living, especially children.
So how can you help children start seeing green? Well, here are a few suggestions.
Don’t buy toys－borrow instead. If kids are concerned, most toys start to lose their shine. Don’t let the unloved toys gather dust around the house－instead, join a local toy library, give them to the library. And if you do buy new toys, try to buy toys made from wood and other eco-friendly materials.
Spend time outside. Make sure your child spends time learning to be outside. Let him/her get involved in nature by planting a tree, building a birdhouse, or taking a bike ride in a nearby park.
Teach green. Even if your child doesn’t receive an environmental education in the classroom, there’s no reason that you can’t spread the word at home. Let your kid help out with separating your recyclables.
Stick with eco-friendly entertainment. Most kids may not seem like interested in the subject on the environment, but put it in a TV show and they’ll change their minds. Give them a taste of the online cartoon show, and you’ll finally find the children learn it happily.
1.The phrase “help children start seeing green” can be replaced by“__________”.

In the UK, bus journeys are very common. Buses are often convenient（便利的）for the people who live or work in the city center. Passengers can avoid heavy traffic and not have to pay for the parking. However, taking the bus is just a necessary but boring part of life: they get on the bus, pay for it and sit or find a place to stand when it is crowded. Everyone may feel tired and bored.
In Latin America, however, bus trips can be wonderful. For a start, films are shown on the buses between cities for passengers to have fun along the journeys. Local buses do not show films, but drivers usually turn on the radio and it can be great for passengers to listen to songs and get relaxed.
Even better than films and music are the sights and sounds on the buses. Local buses always go to parts of the town that passengers would not visit by themselves. They can see other cultures of the town from the windows of the buses.
Besides, passengers’ luggage（行李）is also interesting. It is common to see a happy dog’s head getting out of somebody’s bag or a lovely chicken “speaking cheerfully” under somebody’s arm. Once on a bus in Peru, a farmer even tied a sheep to the top of the bus. It was quite surprising.
All in all, taking the bus in Latin America is really fun and unforgettable.
1.According to the passage, in the UK, how do passengers probably feel on the buses?
They probably feel _______________ .
2.In Latin America, what can passengers do to have fun along the journeys on the buses?
They can _______________________________________________________ .
3.In the writer’s opinion, what are even better than films and music on the buses?
_______________________________________
4.Why does the writer think passengers’ luggage is interesting?
Because it’s common to see different kinds of ______________ on the buses.
5.What does the passage mainly tell us?
It mainly tells us about ______________________________ in Latin America.
