    What would you give up to protect the environment? Many people have given up animal products of all kinds. They are practicing a lifestyle called veganism(纯素主义). Some people choose to become vegan(素食主义者) because they are upset about the way humans treat animals.

    For many people, veganism simply means eating no meat, cheese or eggs. But the idea of saving animals also appears in the fashion and manufacturing industries(制造业).

    For example, leather(皮革) is used in many products, such as shoes and clothes. Every year more than a billion animals, listing from horses to snakes, are killed so that we can use their skin to make leather products. Now, many brands are looking for other ways to make their products.

    The sports brand Puma, for example, has made shoes out of pineapple(菠萝) leaves. Tesla, the American car-maker, is reported to have stopped using leather to make its seats.

    Veganism is growing in popularity. In 2017, the BBC said it was the fastest-growing lifestyle movement in the United Kingdom. At the same time, some news reported that a quarter of Americans between the ages of 25 and 34 are vegans. No wonder the magazine named 2019"the year of the vegan".

    So, if you're interested in protecting animals and saving the environment, you might want to give veganism a try. But somebody asks: "Is veganism healthy?" Some people worry that eating no meat at all is not good for our health. It's your personal choice to be a vegan or not. Just make sure to keep healthy as well.

    Do you get lots of reading tasks as part of your homework? You might wish that you could read faster. But experts have dismissed(驳回) this announcement.

     “Speed reading is not actually possible," said Elizabeth Schotter, a scientist at the University of South Florida, US. Schotter pointed out that people who say that they can teach others how to speed read are usually doing it to make money by selling courses and books.

    In fact, speed reading has been advertised(做广告) since 1959, when US educator Evelyn Wood introduced a speed reading program. Several US presidents have even asked their staff to take speed reading courses.

    Schotter explained that reading is a complicated(复杂的) process. It includes four stages: seeing a word, searching its meaning from your memory, connecting it with other words in the same sentence, and then moving on to the next word. It can't be sped up.

    Some people who are able to speed read are simply skimming(略读). Skimmers can find out the main idea of a passage. But they will not be able to recall all of the information.

    Research suggests that you should try to improve your vocabulary and simply read more. Then you can improve your reading speed.

A. This process uses many parts of the brain at one time. B. Skimming needs to read a passage quickly and only look for certain words or sentences. C. There are some people who announce that you can learn to read at super-high speeds. D. So is there a way to become a faster reader? E. However, the staff found that there is no real science behind speed reading.

When the two cats climbed out of the chimney, one at the cats had soot(烟灰) on his face, while other cat's face was clean cat, the clean cat thought its face must be dirty, so it quickly ran to the riverside and washed its face. The soot-faced cat saw the clean-faced cat and thought its face was also clean, so it just walked down the street happily”
