In 1987, Kierman was competing in an aroundtheworld race when he began to 2 the huge amount of rubbish in the world's oceans. 3 he returned to Australia, he decided to do something about it.
He organized a community company called "Clean Up Sydney Harbour". On Sunday, January 8, 1989, more than 40, 000 volunteers came out to 4 away rubbish. The next year, Kierman made the cleanup a national event. It was a huge 5.Across Australia, about 300，000 people spent the day improving their local 6.
Since then, "Clean Up Australia" has got 7 every year. In 2002, for example, 800, 000 people cleaned up almost 15, 000 tons of rubbish from Australia's beaches, parks and streets.
Kierman was 8 with the success of his project. In 2003, he started an even bigger program. With the help of the United Nations Environment Program, he introduced "Clean Up the World"， an international program that supports communities around the world in 9 and protecting the environment. "Clean Up the World" has grown 10 and his wonderful idea has now spread from one city to the whole world.

For us humans, one of the greatest experiences is to taste all kinds of delicious food. But for penguins, they cannot get a taste of this happiness. That's because penguins can't actually taste the delicious flavors (味道) of their favorite food-fish!
Scientists from the University of Michigan examined the genome (基因组)of five species of penguins. They found that no one can taste umami (鲜味),the flavor of meat or fish, the BBC reported.
Many animals have five basic tastes: sweet, sour, salty, bitter and umami. But according to genetic data, penguins are believed to have only sour and salty tastes.
These findings are surprising and puzzling. And scientists don't have a good explanation for them. But they have a few ideas.
First, one of the umami genes doesn't work in cold temperatures. "It's about zero degrees when they eat cold fish," Zhang Jianzhi, the lead scientist, told the Daily Mail, so even if the penguins had a functional (功能的)gene, it might not work when they needed it.
Second, penguins' tongues (舌头) are very special which may have something to do with their lack of taste. Instead of being covered with taste buds which help to taste food, penguins' tongues are very spiky. This is better for them to hold slippery (滑的) fish than tasting them. One study even showed that some types of penguins don't even have taste buds.
However, penguins seem to be managing just fine.
"Their behavior of swallowing food whole, and their tongue structure and function, suggest that penguins need no taste perception," said Zhang.

John Allen, an American scientist once said, "The Internet is the world's largest library, but all the in it are on the floor!" What he meant is that the Internet is full of information but it can be difficult to find what you need.
The Internet has another disadvantage. Anyone can build a website, so you can websites about whatever you can imagine. Unfortunately, lot of information on them is not always true.
At the same time, the Internet provides many other things. On some websites, you can download music and films. They are usually very and some are even free. On some other websites, you can connect with people from all over the world. And there are some great online shops，too. For example，on eBay people sell used clothes, CDs, and even cars very low prices.
It is true that the Internet has made lives more convenient. But we should not too much on it. Whether you love it hate it, though, you'd better get used to because it is right here to stay.
Many people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, "Happiness depends upon ourselves." In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.
The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend too much time thinking about the future—for example, getting into college or getting a good job—that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives. Another secret to living a happy life is to be active, and have hobbies where you forget your problems and time. When playing a sport, such as swimming, many people forget about their problems, and only think about the activity. Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. If you want to feel happier, do something useful for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, or go shopping to buy food for the old.
