195 countries reached an agreement(協(xié)議) on Dec. 12, 2015 after two weeks’ talks in Paris. They talked about climate(氣候) change. It is the first time in history that most of the world’s countries, rich or poor, promised to take action to deal with climate problems.

Below is a chart showing where the greenhouse gas(溫室氣體) comes from.

Where is greenhouse gas from?

The Paris Agreement(巴黎協(xié)定) sets up a goal of cutting down the earth temperature to less than 2℃. If the warming gets above 2℃， there will be serious problems on the earth like natural disasters.

The agreement also asks countries to volunteer to do things. For developed countries, they will do even more. They have a plan to offer over 100 billion dollars to help poorer countries to develop clean energy like water and wind power.

However, the Paris Agreement won’t solve earth warming by itself. The future also depends on how well each country will carry out their promises.

Everyone wants to find happiness. But sometimes looking for happiness can be as hard as looking for lost treasure. Just when you think you nearly reach it, something unexpected happens. This may trouble you a lot. Here are some tips for helping you find happiness.

● Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. If you depend on one thing or one person to make you happy, it may be impossible. You need to have larger circle of friends.

● Follow your heart. When we go against our own thoughts, we usually feel sad. Follow your strong feeling and let it guide you to people and things that will improve your life. Day by day, you will be happier than before.

● Organize your ideas. Many people push away happiness when they think too much. Don’t keep everything in head. Try making a list of lot of things that don’t seem too big to manage on your own. You may find the list isn’t as long as you thought. You can do most of the things by yourself.

● Look at your life as a whole. Most of the things that stop us from feeling happy are just some little things. Remember life is always going on and whatever the little thing is, it will finally end.

Happiness can be hard to feel at times, so don’t think there is something wrong with you if you don’t feel it. The ways above will help you to feel more of it.

A book review of the Adventures of Tom Sawyer

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a lively story full of fun.

Tom, the hero of the book, lives with his aunt Polly. He is a lively and clever boy. He doesn’t like people telling him 【1】 to do, so he always gets into trouble. He and his best friend, Huck Finn, run away to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River. Tom has more 【2】 because a bad man named Injun Joe is looking for him. Later, Tom escapes (runs away) from a cave with another friend, Becky. He also finds Injun Joe’s treasure box and takes it 【3】.

My favourite part of the book is when Tom and Hunk start 【4】 adventures on the island in the Mississippi River. At first, they are 【5】. But when they hear that everyone thinks they are dead, they feel very sorry, so they come back home. They hide and watch for a time when they see their family and neighbours 【6】 to their funeral in the church. Then, Tom and Huck 【7】 appear. Everyone is surprised to see them at first, but very pleased to find that they are alive.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a great book. It is more than an adventure story. Mark Twain wrote it in 1876. It describes people’s lives in the southern 【8】 of America at that time. It tells how young people grow, how people love each other and how bad people 【9】 for their actions. It is written in everyday English, and the dialogues sound especially real. Today, it is still read and loved 【10】 people all over the world, and it is thought to be one of the greatest American stories.
