A kindergarten teacher decided to let her class play a game. The teacher told each child in the class to bring along a plastic bag with a few potatoes in it. Each potato will be given a name of a person that the child hates, so the number of potatoes that a child will put in his her plastic bag will depend on the number of people he/she cannot forgive(宽恕).

So when the day came, every child brought some potatoes with the names of the people he/she hated. Some had 2 potatoes; some 3,while some had up to 5 potatoes. The teacher then told the children to carry the potatoes with them wherever they go (even to the toilet) for one week. With days passing by, the children started tocomplainbecause of the unpleasant smell Let out by the rotten (腐烂)potatoes they were carrying.

Those children who have5 potatoes really began to feel the weight of the heavier bags.

After one week the children were happy to hear that the teacher had finally ended the game. The teacher asked, "How did you feel while carrying the potatoes with you for one week? "The children started complaining of the trouble that they had to carry the heavy and smelly potatoes wherever they go.

Then the teacher told them the hidden meaning behind the game. The teacher said, "This is exactly the situation when you carry your hatred(仇恨)for somebody inside your heart. The burden (负担)of hatred will pollute your heart and you will end up carrying an unnecessary burden with you wherever you go. If you cannot bear the smell of rotten potatoes for just one week, can you imagine what a burden it would be to have the hatred in your heart for your lifetime?"

Have you got an e-Reader? Is this the end of the book? What do you think? we asked some e-Reader owners to give us their opinions.

There are many things that people like about e-Readers. "E-Readers are really light, weighing less than most paperbacks" said Nathan Jones, a seller. "You can hold the book and turn the pages with one hand." Another big advantage is that you can store hundreds of books on them. "E-Readers are perfect for travel," said Kiera Smith. "You can look for a character by their name or for a place just by typing in the word. That's really useful," said Megan Malone, a reporter..

One user liked the quality(质量) of increasing front(字体) size. "I have got eye problem," explained Harvey Callaghan, an engineer, "But the e-Reader is perfect for me as I can increase the front size. "And Jennifer Saunders said, "I like e-Readers because they are green. If we buy an e-book, we're helping to save trees as they don't use paper. "Best of allice the availability(可用性) of hundreds of free books online. "Project Gutenberg has millions of titles andthev'real1free to download." said Jack London.

One of the biggest disagreements is that you can't find certain titles. "Many books are simply not available in electronic form(形式)."said Daisy Madison. "If you want a specific book, one that is older, perhaps, or not a bestseller, it won't be available— at least, that was my experience."

Others weren't happy about the small delay(卡顿) in turning pages, "The break between touching the 'next page' button(按钮) and the screen showing the page is really boring " said Joel Bray, a shop assistant. "Also, you can't flick(滑动)between pages so easily."

So what do you think?

Does your family buy the week's groceries(杂货) including many bottled drinks into your home?

Because after having sports or hanging out under the sun, it's so cool to get a cold one right out of the, fridge, right?

Americans buy more bottled water than any other nation in the world with 29 billion water bottles a year. In order to make all these bottles,17 million barrels(桶) of oil will be used up. That's enough roil to keep a million cars going for twelvemonths.

In fact,instead of going out with the trash, plastic bottles can be turned into carpeting or clothing. Remember this: Recycling one plastic bottle can save enough energy to power a 60-watt(瓦特)light bulb for six hours.

Unluckily, for every six water bottles we use, only one is made recycling. The rest are sent as garbage. Or, even worse, they end up as trash on the land or in rivers, oceans.

So why don't more people drink water from the kitchen? Some people drink bottled water because they think it is better for them, but that's not true. It can do harm to people.

So next time when you have drinks or water, please try to use a glass at home or carry water in a steel bottle.

A. Plastic bottles take many hundreds of years to disintegrate(分解).

B. The chemicals in the bottles themselves may get into the water.

C. Also, you can try to collect plastic bottles and send them for recycling.

D. But all those plastic bottles use a lot of oil and pollute the environment.

E. Most people choose to throw the bottles away after having the bottled drinks.
