What would a good city look like? To make a better city, planners aimed at creating a city in which the insalubrious environment and social structure would be defeated by a reordering of physical and social arrangements, so that all the citizens could attain the benefits of beauty, community, and democracy. In Harvey’s opinion, the better city should confront on the postmodernist challenge to political economy, and deal with environmental sustainable. However I think green buildings could make good cities, and also citizens will have a best quality of life. According to the World Green Building Council’s definition, “to significantly reduce or eliminate the negative impact of buildings on the environment and on the building occupants, green building design and construction practices address: sustainable site planning, safeguarding water and water efficiency, energy efficiency, conservation of materials and resources, and indoor environmental quality.”The green building, which is sustainable in the built environment, can reduce environmental impact but also provide better buildings. The technologies associated with green buildings include: -Energy conservation -Water conservation -Material selection -Use of renewable materials -Occupant health and indoor environment quality -Site ecology -Recycling The green building can be residential, commercial, retail and industrial buildings. For example, the green building uses water-mining plant to recycle water on toilet flushing, watering the garden, and washing cars. The building also uses phase-change materials for cooling, automatic night-purge windows, wavy concrete ceilings, which saves a lot of money and become more sustainable. The idea of green and healthy cities is becoming more important nowadays. The better city should be planed for health and well-being by planners, and they will mainly focus on service facilities, educations. The good city will also need to be safe in community, and make community more walkable, and has an urban design with exquisite streetscape. However the planner keeps developing new ideas of how cities should be changed, therefore the city will become more livable and sustainable in the future. Reference: Susan S.

Hello, boys and girls. I'm glad to do the presentation today. The topic of my presentation is going to a fantasnating and mysterious land—the Hoh Xil. Hoh Xil is located in the northwest region in the tableland of Tibet, and its area is 8 million square kilometer, most of them are prairie(高原). The average elevation of here is above 5000 meters. And at the edge of it, you will see the snow capped mountain. Also there are many salty lakes in it. Hoh Xil is famous for its cold climate, strong wind and low air pressure. Because of the low pressure, the boiling point of water is only 80 degrees. The disgusting climate doesn’t affect the beauty of Hoh Xil. It isn’t deserted. Hoh Xil means “a beautiful young girl” in the Tibetan language, and it is also the major source of Chang River. The unmanned region of Hoh Xil is the biggest non-people area in China, also the last place that haven’t been damaged by human. So it is the paradise of the wild animals. Hoh Xil is one of the places that have abundant animal resources area in China. There are more than 230 species of animals, including antelopes, wild yaks， wild donkeys，deer，brown bears，snow leopards and so on . Most of them are the animal protection in the country. Every year Hoh Xil attracts a great many tourists come here. They drive jeeps to through the void area. They enter the center of Hoh Xil: experience the pure natural life there. Although it is attractive, it is also adventurous. Because wolves and leopards often appear in the night . So you must make adequate preparation before you set off. The most important factors that make Hoh Xil known by people are the antelopes. The antelopes are regarded as the pride of Hoh Xil, and it is one species that only our country has, similar to the pandas. The difference between them is why they are so small in number: it is well known to us, the panda has a poor adaptability, by contrast, the adaptability of antelopes is very strong. They have lived in this land for millions of years, because they are belong to here. In such a bad condition, the antelope can run at a speed 60km one hour in a very long time. When you see them running, you will be amazed in the magic of nature. One student that has been to Hoh Xil said: as long as you don’t disturb them, they will live better. In the past, the number of antelopes is stable and huge. there are almost 60000 antelopes in the Qinghai province, more than 50000 in Hoh Xil. However, the sound of guns break the silence, the poachers come to hunt them. The number of them drop sharply, some data show that the police have uncovered 114 cases and taken over more than 1500 the furs of antelopes since 1992. During that period, about 35000 antelopes are hunted and cruelly killed, they take the fur and leave their dead bodies, soon you will see a number of cinereous vulture(秃鹫) come, then only the bone left. Now you can hardly find a crowd of antelopes in their habitat, this ancient species will die out if we don’t take measures in time. There are three main reasons making the number cut down: firstly, as the high profit for antelopes’ furs, many poachers hunt them without permission. Second, the district that antelopes spread is very broad, what’s worse, the horrible environment and bad traffic also increase the difficulty to protect them. Third, the organization to protect antelopes is short of the necessary equipments and fund. Because more and more people are concerned about the situation of antelopes, our government set up the Hoh Xil nature reserve administration in 1992-12. You might have seen the movie Mountain Patrol that directed by the famous director LuChuan, it has impressed the audience. And it is adapted on a real story: a person organized many people to prevent the poachers from hunting the antelopes, they bear the horrible weather and condition, during the fight against poachers, the captain was killed, but the work doesn’t stopped, then his younger sister’s husband continue it. The story isn’t end, many volunteers will take part in, next let’s watch a video. The activity protecting antelopes is one style of life, also a war, many people has sacrificed their lives in it, but the activity still continue. Hoh Xil is a heaven, a hell, or a holly land to witness life and belief? I don’t know, the story of Hoh Xil is hard to say, only people have been there can realize. That’s all, thanks for listening! 可可西里截 可可西里志愿者 这是我做英语PRESENTION时自己查资料翻译的，绝对原版，希望可以帮到你。。。。

New life in UniversityI have been in University for about one year. During my stay here, I came to realize that university life is like drinking coke. We experience all tastes of life here, sour, sweet, bitter and hot.I am from Nantong, which is far away from here. I often miss my Mum, friends, and relatives in my hometown. However, I can't see them very often. So loneliness always keeps me company. I am sad that I can't be there with them.Lucky for me, life in university is rich and colorful. With more free time,we can do many more things besides study, such as joining societies clubs, and taking part-time jobs. Such activities not only make our life more colorful, but also help us improve all kinds of skills. The university is a society miniature, what we learn here will benefit our future life.Our path in life will not always be smooth. Setbacks can't be avoided. Failing an important exam, break up with boy or girl friend, or refused by a promising company, such setbacks are likely to get us down. Sometimes we fell so frustrated that we even burst into tears.Drinking coke is wonderful, despite the undesirable consequent hiccups. It's bitter, sour and peppery, but also sweet. And you'll even feel excited after gulping down a glass. A college experience is part of growing up. We cry, smile, fall in love, get hurt, leave, learn and then we become a better person.University life is like drinking coke. I'm experiencing it. And I know, I enjoy it!我一直在大学呆了一年多。我儿时,我才意识到大学生活就像喝可乐。的生活经历口味、酸、甜、苦、辣。我来自南通,离这儿很远。我常常想念妈妈的亲戚、朋友,在我的家乡。然而,我经常见到。那么孤独总是会陪伴我。我很难过,我无法和在一起。幸运的是,我在大学生活是多彩的。有更多的闲暇,可以做更多的事情除了学习,如加入社团俱乐部,打工。的活动,使的生活多彩,而且还能帮助改进各样的技能。大学是社会,里学到的微缩有利于今后的生活。的人生之路不会一帆风顺。挫折是无法的。失败的的考试,跟男孩女孩的朋友,或者拒绝由有前途的公司,会让的挫折。有时候,觉得很沮丧,甚至大哭起来。喝可乐是美妙的,undesirble随之打嗝。这是苦的,酸和暴躁,而且甜。你甚至可以感觉到激动下一杯。全身后,大学的经验是成长的一。哭泣,微笑着,坠入爱河,受伤,离开,学习,然后做的人。大学生活就像喝可乐。我的感受。我知道,我喜欢它!
