【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 had a question: How many plastic straws（吸管） do Americans use every day? He quickly learned there wasn39。t a simple answer. The boy tried to work it out himself. Through lots of research, Cress found out that Americans use about 500 million straws every day. In hopes of reducing plastic waste, he founded the Be Straw Free project in 2011. Cress started the project in his hometown – Burlington, Vermont. He asked a local restaurant to stop offering straws with every drink order. It was a simple change. However, it would save money. And by doing that, the restaurant would cut down on its straw use by 50 percent. For the years that followed, Cress tried to spread his project across the United States. More and more restaurants agreed to join. They stop providing the customer with a straw unless he or she asks for one. Last April, Seattle became the first American city to pletely ban （禁止） plastic straws. Plastic pollution has been one of the most serious problems today. According to scientists, more than eight million tons of plastic end up in the ocean each year. Plastic straws are especially terrible. They make it easy for people to get fortable with singleuse plastics. After his project became popular, Cress took his findings on the road. He has since spoken to tens of thousands of students around the world. He wants to encourage more people to say no to plastic straws. Focusing（聚焦） on straws is one simple step we all could take, Cress says. And it makes me feel that I, as a kid, could make a difference, too.（1）When did Milo Cress start to care about the problem of straws?

Since I fell off the stage（舞臺）during my Primary Graduation Ceremony, my family bet（打賭）that I would fall down again during my next graduation ceremony. The day came so quickly. This time, I proudly made it through the whole ceremony without falling. but I knocked over the whole backdrop （背景板）used to take pictures for graduates! I felt so embarrassed （尷尬的）the whole morning. My friend Julia was even more embarrassed.

The hall was very quiet and you could even hear a pin（針）drop on the ground. When all of a sudden, out of the silence, she heard Hey, Julia! Everyone in the hall looked behind and found Julia39。s father, with a camera in his hand, smiling at her! Tiffany was the most beautiful girl of us three. She loved all kinds of dresses. On that day, she dressed herself beautifully and wanted to have some beautiful photos. Unluckily, it was one of the windiest days of our life.
