15、hildren are occupied with afterschool activities from swimming to piano to religious classes.Out of desperation one day, the town decided to schedule another activity. This one was called Ridgewood Family Night Ready, Set, Relax!?, Instead of schedules filled with sports, music, or overtime at the o
16、ffice, some of the towns 25,000 residents decided to take the night off and stay home. For a few months before Family Night, a committee of volunteers worked hard to spread the word. Younger students took Save the Date for Me,9 leaflets home to their parents. The mayor issued a statement, and school
17、s and clubs agreed to cancel homework and meetings so families could relax and be together.The tension between a hope for a more relaxed lifestyle and the knowledge that the benchmark for success has been raised in recent years weighs heavily on the minds of the townspeople. Some parents like to rec
18、all a different kind of childhood, one without so many scheduled afterschool activities. However, these same parents feel obliged to make sure their children are prepared to survive in today9s high-pressure work environment. They are afraid that any gap in their childrens physical or intellectual de
19、velopment might mean they wont be admitted to the “right” universities and wont succeed in a more and more competitive world.Nevertheless, it seems that Family Night worked, at least to a point. Cars moved easily around Ridgewoods normally busy downtown streets, and stores and restaurants saw a drop
20、 in business. Some families ate supper together for the first time in months.Initially, there was great hope of taking back their lives.

25、ver season of American Idol 11 years ago, critics believed she had little chance of staying on top. Too “girl next door”, they said. Not stylish enough. Not thin enough, either.But Kelly Clarkson, 31, has proven them all wrong with her string of worldwide hits, from Because of You to the recent Catc
26、h My Breath.Being the first Idol winner in the US was not easy. In the past decade since that victory, Clakson has had to deal with the medias scrutiny of her weight and personal style. Everyones like J Youre a pop star. You should be smaller. Clarkson told People Magazine. But Pm the pop star. Til
27、make the rules.”Since middle school, Clarkson has been aware of the power of her voice. She first joined the school choir （合唱队）at age 13 when a teacher heard her singing in the hallway and demanded that she join. Singing gave me confidence,Clarkson told the Orange County Register, a newspaper in Cal
28、ifornia. Friends at school were nervous because they didnt know what they wanted to do with the rest of their lives, but T had a peaceful feeling inside, because T knew.”Despite her enormous publicity, Clarkson has remained true to her down-to-earth personality. The reason some winners fade away is
29、that theyre trying to model themselves on somebody else. If we already have the original, why would we need a copy? You need to be offering something new, something thafs uniquely you, she told the Daily Mail. Around her rib cage （胸 月空）is her new tattoo （纹身），indicating how strong she has become from

32、wn-to-earth personality.Text 3Plants on Earth have grown for hundreds of millions of years, yet President Donald Trump 9s pick to lead his new climate team insists that they need more carbon dioxide (CO2) to boom.Princeton physicist and carbon dioxide-advocate William Happer has been selected to hea
33、d the brand new Presidential Committee on Climate Security. The atomic scientist, who achieved recognition for his work on atomic collisions (原子耐 1 撞)， not climate science, declared that the planefs atmosphere needs significantly more CO2, which is reported to speed up climate change. Happer said pl
34、ants use CO2 to live and more CO2 is actually a benefit to the Earth. He also stressed that Earth is experiencing a CO2 starvation”, and concludes that “If plants could vote, they would vote for coal.Earth and plant scientists, however, find Happers insistence that the plant kingdom would benefit fr
35、om increased CO2 wrong-headed and it lacks evidence. For example, Earths CO2 levels have increased sharply in the last century, and are now at their highest levels in at least 800,000 years-though other measurements show CO2 levels are higher than theyve been in 15 million years. The idea that incre
36、ased CO2 is universally beneficial to plants is very misguided J Jill Anderson, an evolutionary ecologist specializing in plant populations, said in an interview. Data shows the evolution of global average temperature and CO2 concentration from 1850 to 2019. Though 2019 is a bit cooler than recent y
37、ears, it still is one of the warmest years ever and lies close to the trend line of global warming.Both independent academic organizations and government agencies around different parts of the world concluded more CO2 will bring many negative impacts to plant environments.

Coffee is a top export of the country. But at home, it is
41、 seen as national pride. Ethiopians feel good about their coffee, and enjoying a drink with friends is a long tradition.International coffee experts travel the world to find the best coffee. They keep returning to Ethiopia. Some people say the climate produces quality beans. Morton Wenner is a coffe
42、e importer. He said, Ethiopia has different ancient types of coffee. They are planted in places with perfect soil, perfect altitude, and climates that are really suitable for coffee processing, such as drying and things like that.”Finding the best quality beans is often an issue of taste. The proces
43、s is known as cupping - tasting and comparing coffee from different roasted beans, grading and then pricing them.But before international experts come to taste, coffee beans are studied in small coffee laboratories. Helen Assefa, a lab technician, describes the process, When the coffee comes to the
44、lab, we assess its quality first by recording the details. Then we weigh the wetness level and screen the beans for analysis. After that we polish the coffee beans and taste the samples. At the end we check for imperfect beans.”Ethiopia is making big profits on its coffee reputation by exporting cof
45、fee to more than 120 countries. The country has an export income of more than $840 million a year. But not all the best coffee leaves Ethiopia. Forty percent of the coffee grown in the country stays there. It remains an important part of everyday life at work, at home and at ceremonies just to celeb
