Christmas is a season to spread(传播) joy. Can we spread this joy by caring a little more about nature and going green? (1)Here are some good ideas.

Reduce the use of the decorative(装饰性的) lights. Make use of the eco-friendly(环保的)lights on the market. In this way you can save electricity.

Reuse the wrapping (包装)paper to wrap the gifts. You don’t need

to buy new wrapping paper every year. Also try using the same small

decorations for your Christmas tree.

Recycle all those decorations that you cannot use any more. You

can send out Christmas cards made from recycled paper. It’s a thoughtful

way of going green for Christmas. (2)There are many charities selling

these cards made from recycled paper.

There are some other good ways to go green for Christmas.

You can make Christmas gifts by yourself. You needn’t go to shops to buy presents for your family and friends. Home-made Christmas chocolates, handmade soft toys, and home-made candles are wonderful.

If you have no time for gifts, you can also invite your family and friends over to have a home-cooked meal. They can even help you with the cooking. This can make your relationship stronger.

Failure is what often happens. It is everywhere in our life. Students may fail in exams, scientists may fail in their research work, and players may fail in competitions.

(1)Although failure happens to everyone, different people’s attitudes(态度) towards failure are different.

Some people don’t think that their failure is an important thing at all. So they pay no attention to it. As a result, they will have the same failure later. Some people think they themselves are fools and lose heart in everything after they get a failure. Then they spend their time and energy on useless things. At last, they may really be fools as they have thought.

(2)Other people are quite different from these two kinds of people mentioned above. Instead of being hopeless and lost, they draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced. After hard work, they will be successful in the end. So we should draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced.

1. Why will some people have the same failure later?
