22、 Last Sunday, my whole family went to the amusement park near our town, as we planned the day before, on my brother David’s 13th birthday. David was two years older than me.
The weather was perfect and everyone was happy. The park was not too crowded. “Fiona,” said my brother, “do you want to go on that ride with me?” “Of course.” I said. The ride was brand new. I saw commercials(广告)for this huge roller coaster(过山车)on television. I was so excited to ride it. As we got in line, we talked excitedly about what we might experience. We decided that we would both try to keep our hands in the air the whole time. We believed that would make it even more enjoyable. I was so busy talking to my brother that I missed the most important sign—Empty your pockets(腾空口袋)before going on the ride.Something bad happened!
The ride started. It was a really fast roller coaster! Before I knew it, we were upside down. I felt my phone slipping(滑落)from my pocket. My hands were in the air, just as we had promised, and I didn’t catch my phone in time. It hit me on the head, fell down to the ground and broke. My parents said I wouldn’t have a new phone until I had enough money to pay for it. I need to be more careful.

Eat Less Meat, Please!
There are many ways to save the Earth. We can use less water, plant more trees, d【1】 less and bike more. Now, some scientists have put forward one more way to avoid dangerous climate change—eat less meat.
Their new research finds farm animals like caws and pigs p【2】 much more greenhouse gases than we thought. W【3】 action, the influence will become far worse as the world population continues to grow. And, as global income rises, more people will afford and eat meat-rich diets.
One of the researchers is Johan Rockstrom. He is a professor from Germany. “Feeding a world population of ten billion is p【4】, but only if we change how we eat,” the scientist said. “Greening food production creating up our planet—this is what is on the menu today.”
A U.N. report also warns that eating less meat and dairy is important. The current trends, however, are in the o【5】 direction. Rockstrom calculated that on average we needed to eat 75 percent less beef, 90 percent less pork and half the number of eggs. Education, taxes and changes to school and workplace menus can help achieve this goal.
In some countries, people have become more aware of the importance of changing their diets. In the Netherlands, young people have been eating less meat. “We know food choices are very personal. That behavior change can be difficult” said Rockstrom. “But the evidence is how clear. We need to change our d【6】 if we want to save our planet.”
