26、o travel to creativity I had long given up. She brought me out of the shell I built.She became my mother, my older sister, my friend and my teacher. The one thing she couldnt do though was to make me more girly as growing up with only my dad and brother made me a real tomboy.Sometimes, I would be re

27、ally immature（不成熟的）,especially if she was scoring me less than others on purpose.

I think the Kyotot Protocol(京都議定書)to stop pollution is a great idea, and I hope our country will decide to follow it, too.Eli S. ,10 , TexaPeople should do all they can to help stop pollution, even if it is something as lit

33、tle as recycling your soda cans. Every little thing helps. Maybe schools can put recycling bins in classrooms.

34、e are one of the richest countries, we should at least spend a little money to help.Aaron Z,11, MassachusettIt is not good that the United States is not following the Kyoto Protocol.

However, when students download and share copyrighted music without permission, they are against the law.A survey of young peoples music ownership ha

41、s found that teenagers and college students have an average of more than 800 illegally copied songs each on their digital music players. Half of those surveyed share all the music on their hard drive, enabling others to copy hundreds of songs at any one time. Some students were found to have randoml

45、ion that files lawsuits against illegal downloaders, states that suing(控告)students was by no means their first choice.

Get Rid of Illegal Music Download? Impossible!DI believe that animals possess greater intelligence than

50、 most people think. But plants? Ive never considered the possibility of plant intelligence. The idea seems absurd.Yet Ive had friends argue that plant intelligence might exist.“What are the differences between plants and animals?”they ask , and then they argue about certain species that seem to shar

51、e the intelligence of both plants and animals.New research suggests that plants communicate via“networks.”Plant communication is not idea, and cannot indicate that it is a kind of intelligence, but it is still interesting.Recent research from Vidi researcher Josef Stuefer at the Radboud University N

52、ijmegen shows that plants have their own chat systems that they can use to warn each other. Therefore plants are not boring and passive organisms that just stand there waiting to be cut down or eaten up. Many plants form internal communication networks and are able to exchange information networks a

53、nd are able to exchange information efficiently.Many herbal（草制的） plants such as strawberries and clovers(三葉草)naturally form networks. Individual plants remain connected with each other for a certain period of time by means of runners (plant stems that grow along the ground and put down roots to form

54、 new plants). These connections enable the plants to share information with each other via internal channels. They are therefore very similar to computer networks. But what do plants chat to each other about?Recently Stuefer and his colleagues were the first to prove that clover plants warn each oth

55、er via the network links if danger is nearby. If one of the plants is attacked by caterpillars(毛蟲)，the other members of the network are warned via an internal signal. Once warned the intact(完好無損的)plants strengthen their chemical and mechanical(機體的)resistance so that they are less attractive to advancing caterpillars. Thanks to this early
