10、nefits. Studies have shown that vegetarians usually have lower levels of heart disease and a lower risk of diabetes than people who eat meat. What most people are less aware of, however, are the effects that a vegetarian diet can have on the environment.Researchers from the Union of Concerned Scient
11、ists in the US recently studied how consumer behavior affects the environment. The study showed that meat consumption is one of the main ways that humans can damage the environment, second only to the use of motor vehicle.Then, how can eating meat have a negative effect on the environment? For a sta
12、rt, all farm animals such as cows, pigs, and sheep give off methane (沼气) gas by expelling (排出) wind from their bodies. One cow can produce up to 60 liters of methane each day. Methane gas is the second most common greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide. Many environmental experts now believe that it is
13、 more responsible for global warming than carbon dioxide. It is estimated that 25% of all methane released into the atmosphere comes from farm animals.Another way that meat production affects the environment is through the use of water and land. 2,500 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound
14、 of beef, whereas 20 gallons of water are needed to produce one pound of wheat. One acre of farmland used for crop production can produce 40,000 pounds of potatoes, 30,000 pounds of carrots, or 50,000 pounds of tomatoes.Many people now see the benefits of switching to a vegetarian diet, not just for
15、 health reasons, but also because it plays a vital role in protecting the environment. However, some nutritionists advise against switching to a totally strict vegetarian, or vegan diet. They believe a vegan diet, which excludes all products from animal sources, such as cheese, eggs, and milk, can b

While the achievement is remark
20、able in itself, what is even more so is that the youngster, who was homeless at the time, began learning the game less than a year ago.Tani and his family arrived in New York City from Nigeria in 2017, seeking religious protection. A church pastor(牧师)helped find the family of four space in a homeles
21、s shelter in Manhattan and, soon after, Tani entered the local elementary school. It was here that the young talent was first introduced to the basics of chess by a part-time teacher. Attracted by the game, the then seven-year-old begged his mother, Oluwatoyin, to allow him to join the schools chess

23、ve all costs for young Tani. The rest, as they say, is history. The young boy, who has got seven prizes in less than a year, currently ranks 27 in America in his age group.Though the chess club certainly helps, Tanis success can be largely owed to the efforts he has put into the game. The chess tale

Every Saturday, Tani and his mother head to Harlem for a free 3-hour class to help further sharpen his game skills.Not surprisingly, Tanis incredible story, first reported by The New Y
25、ork Times, has resulted in an outpouring of support from the American public.

29、ss camp for several months. He had threatened to do it many times before, but my mother had always managed to prevent him from doing so. This time he insisted on doing it.The latest incident was the last straw. Impulsively （(冲动地)）, I had pushed Mr. Ford, my math teacher, down a flight of steps at sc
30、hool. He broke his arm in two places. Anyway, he had agreed not to accuse me as a favor to my dad, who was in the middle of a tight race for sheriff （警长） in our town. But my reckless behavior had my dads closest advisor talking.“John, hes your son and hes a kid, but he is dragging you down,” I heard
31、 Jake Hutch tell my dad through his closed office door the night after I pushed Mr. Ford. “If you cant make your son obey the rules, how can you make the law obeyed in this town?”So, off to Pisgah National Forest I went. I imagined hours of untold abuse at the hands of some strong sergeants （军士）. I
32、was determined not to be broken.

38、actions along the National Mall. Instead, the London-based hairdresser (理发师) headed for the marble fountain where homeless people gather outside. Most travellers walk by without a second glance. So what Coombes did next may well have surprised them: He chatted with them, pulled out his scissors and
39、gave them haircuts, free of charge.Whether in London, New York or Washington, D.C., homelessness can seem like a problem too huge and difficult to deal with. But Coombes realised that he didnt have to solve all of everyones problems to make an impact. Sometimes, a small luxury such as a haircut can
40、go a long way in boosting someones dignity, he told The Washington Post.Two years ago, he founded the campaign Do Something For Nothing. His mission: to make a positive impact by giving haircuts to homeless people he meets on city streets, connecting with them on a human level and sharing their stor
