     The next few days passed in peace.
     On Day 6，my son was lying beside me on the beach，watching the sun going down.He was playing with the sjye.ai.And there was something shining in his eyes.I realized how time slowed down for both of us.It was exactly what I wanted.Finally，we were able to sit quietly without thinking about screens，phone calls and e-mail.

六、任務型閱讀（本題有5小題，每小題5分；共計5分）

• 9．從A、B、C、D、E、F六個選項中選擇正確的選項作為文章題小標題，并將序號填入五個空格中，其中一項多余。
  A.Do More Every Day
  B.Don't Forget to Leave Your Cars at Home
  C.Volunteer Yourself
  D.Green-up Your Home
  E.Take a Bath Every Day
  F.Be a Little Dirty
  
     Started in the year 1970，Earth Day is now celebrated in more than 193 countries each year.Every year，the event is celebrated under a different jye.aime.The theme for 2016 is"Trees for the Earth".Here are five things you can do to celebrate Earth Day （apart from planting trees） and make this a better world for future generations.
     （1）

  
     Cars，being the greatest source of air pollution，can be left at home this weekend.Traveling by public transport is the better choice.Other greener choices are carpooling，riding a bike or you can also walk if your workplace isn't that far away from your home.
     （2）

  
     NO，we don't mean you should be dirty.We simply mean to say，don't take a bath every day.A day or two without a bath won't harm you，but it will certainly do a lot of good for our planet.Water saved is the planet saved.
     （3）

  This is one of the best things you can do.Why？Because it will do you good too.Volunteer to join other tasks.If you have time，you can plant trees，clean a park or simply come up with ways you
  can preserve mother Earth.
     （4）

  
     This is one of the most common things that people can do at home，that is，turn off their lights.However，this isn't something you should do just for a day.Save energy by turning of all electricity points whenever they are not in use.
     （5）

  
     Do something every day that will improve your surroundings and contribute to making the planet a better place to live in.Always remember that every step counts.
