【正文】 60。 At the age of seven, while his friends were spending their allowances on candy and toys, Jose Adolfo Quisocola, Peru, came up with the creative idea of an eco173。bank which allows kids of all ages to bee economically independent and financially wise while helping the environment. Established in 2012, The Bartselana Student Bank is the world39。s first cooperative bank for kids. Whoever wants to join has to bring in at least 5 kilograms (11 pounds) of solid waste (paper or plastic) and establish a savings goal. Once accepted, all bank partners are required to deposit at least one additional kilogram (2* 2 pounds) of recydables on a monthly basis and obey other requirements, such as attending financial education and environmental management workshops. The waste accumulated is sold to local recycling panies, who, thanks to some clever negotiation by Jose, pay a higher173。than173。market rate for everything brought in by Bartselana Student Bank members. The funds received are placed in the individual39。s account where they collect until his/her savings goal is reached. The account holder can then withdraw his/her money, or choose to leave it and continue to grow for a bigger target. At the beginning, my teachers thought I was crazy or that a child could not undertake this type of project, Jose recalls. They did not understand that we are not the future of the country but its present. Luckily, I had the support of the school principal and an assistant in my classroom. The youngster39。s persistence paid off. Today, the eco173。bank, which now has the support of several local institutions, has ten educational centers and begins accepting applications from kids all across Peru. On November 20, 2018, the young boy was awarded the famous Children39。s Climate Prize (CCP). Jose39。s eco173。bank is a brilliant way of linking economy and climate impact, both in thought and practice. The potential impact is amazing, a judge said. Hopefully, Jose39。s success will inspire more kids and adults to e up with new ideas that create value while helping the environment. As the boy says, Together we can change the world, we just need an opportunity.（1）For what purpose was the eco173。bank created?

Pei, the ChineseAmerican, who was regarded as one of the last great modernist architects, has died at the age of 102. Although he worked mostly in the United States, Pei will always be remembered for a European project: His redevelopment of the Louvre Museum in Paris in the 1980s. He gave us the glass and metal pyramid in the main courtyard, along with three smaller pyramids and a vast subterranean (地下的) addition to the museum entrance. Pei was the first foreign architect to work on the Louvre in its long history, and initially his designs were fiercely opposed. But in the end, the French—and everyone else—were won over. Winning the fifth Pritzker Architecture Prize in 1983, he was thought as giving the 20th century some of its most beautiful inside spaces and outside forms … His talent and skill in the use of materials approach the level of poetry. After studying architecture at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, Pei set up his own architectural practice in New York in 1955. Designing the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library amp。 Museum in 1964 established him as a name. His East Building of the National Gallery of Art in Washington in 1978 changed people39。s ideas of a museum. The site was an odd trapezoid (梯形) shape. Pei39。s solution was to cut it in two. The resulting building was dramatic, light and elegant—one of the first crowdpleasing cathedrals of modern art. Though known as a modernist, and notable for his forms based on arrangements of simple geometric (幾何的) shapes, he once urged Chinese architects to look more to their architectural tradition rather than designing in a western style. In person, . Pei was goodhumored, charming and unusually modest. His working process was evolutionary, but innovation (創(chuàng)新) was never an intended goal. Stylistic originality is not my purpose, he said. I want to find the originality in
