21、Ice Fishing

Dear members,

I’m excited about this Sunday’s ice fishing. We are to meet at 9:00 am and then take the bus to the lake.

Please arrive on time. Before you set off, here is some advice for you:

●   Wear the right clothes. You should dress in layers (层). Wear two or three shirts, so you can take off a layer when you are warm. Wear a face mask, a warm hat and gloves.

●   Stay warm. Be sure to take a hot drink, for example a hot chocolate. You should move around to stay warm. Some people take ice-skates.

●   Check the ice. Look at it carefully. The ice must be 10 cm or more thick. Thick ice is safe for ice fishing. Thin ice is dangerous.

●   Take the right tools. Be sure to take your fish hooks (钩) and fishing rods (竿)! Take your phone. You might need to call for help. Remember to take a chair to sit on.

Have a great time!

Brain from the ice fishing club

23、   Do you want to know what pets do when their owners leave for work or school each day? That's the question The Secret Life of Pets tries to answer.

The cartoon movie is mainly about Max, a sweet and loyal dog. He lives inside one of the high buildings in New York. Things are going well until his loving owner, Katie, decides to bring home Duke, a careless, untidy dog from the dog pound  where lost cats and dogs are kept until their owners come to take them home.

Actress Ellie Kemper plays the role of Katie. “She decides to bring home a new dog because he needs a home but she's very worried，” said Kemper.Instead of welcoming each other with open paws, the dogs can't get along well at first. When the two dogs find themselves on the mean streets of New York City, they have to team up and work together against a cute but criminal(犯罪的) rabbit named Snowball.

Kemper doesn't have any pets in real life. But she says she would like to have one if she has free time. She said, “I don't want to speak badly about cats, but I feel like you can play with dogs more.”“The story is really funny，” Kemper says. The movie also has an important message. “Animals have feelings too，” she says. “That sounds corny(老生常谈的), but we should be kind to animals.”

Eat Less Meat, Please!

There are many ways to save the Earth. We can use less water, plant more trees, d【1】 less and bike more. Now, some scientists have put forward one more way to avoid dangerous climate change—eat less meat.

Their new research finds farm animals like caws and pigs p【2】 much more greenhouse gases than we thought. W【3】 action, the influence will become far worse as the world population continues to grow. And, as global income rises, more people will afford and eat meat-rich diets.

One of the researchers is Johan Rockstrom. He is a professor from Germany. “Feeding a world population of ten billion is p【4】, but only if we change how we eat,” the scientist said. “Greening food production creating up our planet—this is what is on the menu today.”

A U.N. report also warns that eating less meat and dairy is important. The current trends, however, are in the o【5】 direction. Rockstrom calculated that on average we needed to eat 75 percent less beef, 90 percent less pork and half the number of eggs. Education, taxes and changes to school and workplace menus can help achieve this goal.

In some countries, people have become more aware of the importance of changing their diets. In the Netherlands, young people have been eating less meat. “We know food choices are very personal. That behavior change can be difficult” said Rockstrom. “But the evidence is how clear. We need to change our d【6】 if we want to save our planet.”
