They read my sign and

10、 broke into smiles. Before long, our signs were wildly popular. Strangers took photos with us and asked us about our signs. Some even asked if they could have a “Smile!” sign to carry around. We posed for pictures and sang with street performers. We got so wrapped up in our “Smile!” project that we

11、forgot the other goal. Before we knew it, the sun was setting.We sat down to think about how wed raise the money we needed. A blind man had just finished playing the guitar. He was packing up when a passing crowd kicked over his coin jar. Coins scattered（四散） around and he felt his way to collect the

12、m. We rushed to help him, but before we could get there, another man“stole”our good deed.Once the musician had his money returned, we went to meet the “ thief”.“ We just wanted to compliment you on your good deed,”I said.He smiled and asked about our signs.

13、d sincerely, “Id like to contribute.

17、coming the first city in the nation to ban natural gas in new low-rise buildings and homes, Berkeley did something great in mid-July. It signaled the beginning of the end of the natural gas era.California has set a climate mandate（指令）of 100% clean, renewable energy by 2045. It wont reach that goal u

18、nless it gets rid of natural gas. Burning natural gas emits（散發(fā)）carbon dioxide and other pollutants. In many cities, including Berkeley, buildings are the second leading greenhouse gas-emitting sector, after transportation. Now that regulations aimed at the 2045 mandate are in place for cars, trucks

19、and coal-fired power, natural gas has to be next.The popular image of gas cooking and heating-clean, cheap and reliable, a “bridge fuel” from coal to renewables-needs to be changed. Natural gas has produced more greenhouse gas emissions overall in the US than coal since 2015. Now natural gas emissio

20、ns from the states 12 million buildings account for 12% of the states greenhouse gas emissions.Whats more, natural gas is combustible, a common reason for fires and explosions. An underground gas pipe explosion in the Bay Area city in 2010 killed eight people and destroyed or damaged more than 100 h

21、omes. Gas leaks can cause not only indoor pollution but also deaths.The case for making new buildings all-electric is overwhelming（無(wú)法抗拒的）.It costs less to set up just one kind of energy-electricity-in new constructions, instead of laying gas pipes too. And the latest technologies work well: Electric

22、 heat pumps both cool and heat homes.At least 50 other California cities will encourage all-electric new constructions in the coming months. They may not ban gas altogether in new constructions, but the aim is the same. The Berkeley measure is the beginning of an equally essential but more difficult

25、ing to Paragraph 5,making new buildings all-electricA. is practical B. is a difficult choice C. has a long way to go D.deserves further researchDPreventing heart disease is a topic I think about all the time, given my family history of heart disease.

26、es, called the Tsimane,were reported to have the healthiest hearts in the world. I wanted to learn what they could teach me about preventing heart disease.Getting to the Tsimane wasnt easy.

27、t sunset. That night, we set up our tents in the middle of the village. Thatched huts（茅草屋）surrounded us， with no electricity or modern conveniences.I initially thought they mainly got their calories from meat. However, I found food such as rice and corn made up nearly 70% of their diet. The food was

28、 not processed, lacking added sugars or salts.During my stay there, I went hunting and fishing with the men and played soccer with the kids. I found the Tsimane were standing or walking nearly all of their waking hours. Men spent lots of time tracking animals. Farming and gathering, mostly done by c

29、hildren and women,were all-day affairs.I also got a clear idea of how they rested. As soon as the sun went down, people returned to their huts and went to sleep. And with the call of the cock in the morning, another day began.The lifespan（平均壽命）of the Tsimane is actually much shorter than those livin

30、g in the US. Various factors,like animal attacks and infections, bring down the lifespan. But up until the day they die, they are often very healthy.
