Now, in the streets of China, we can see increasing numbers of foreigners, speaking various foreign languages or strangely-toned Chinese. They have become part of our life. Have you ever wondered what brings foreigners to China and what they do in China?
Xia Yuan,a beautiful girl from Ukraine, works in Beijing. She is in charge of the marketing department. She had studied Chinese for two years before she came to China, and she now speaks fluent Mandarin(普通话).Unless you can see her in person, you might not even realize that she is a foreigner.
Ding Luo, an Italian, is the manager of Alcatel in China. Some years ago he lived in Chengdu, Sichuan. He often went to the poor areas of Sichuan to help the kids, donating computers, clothes and bags to them. Whenever he had a problem, he would say ”I don’t understand Chinese” and take out a card carrying his name and workplace, both written in Chinese.
Also, many foreigners love Chinese culture. They travel around or make short visits in China, taking lots of photos. They seldom speak Chinese. When they finish their travels, they ‘ll move on to another country. But foreigners remain a tiny minority in China. Few Chinese people know them well.

Jay Kohl, an American student, posted an online advertisement two weeks ago searching for a Chinese family to stay with so that he can learn the language and culture.
"I'm a clean, non-smoking, and warm-hearted American man looking for a homestay in the Wudaokou area to improve my Chinese language skills,” he wrote. "I'm willing to offer help with English tutoring(家教)and even can help you with applying for foreign universities.”
He still hasn't found a suitable home.
"Most of the families that contacted me seem to be interested in doing business instead of cultural exchange," he said. "I think I might have to rent an apartment in the end.”
Kohl isn't the only foreigner finding it difficult to find a homestay in Beijing. Michael Benson, who wants to come to Beijing in September, has also faced the same problem.
Why is finding a homestay family so difficult? Beijing Today consulted a Chinese teacher, Jessie Xi, who has been teaching foreign students at the University of International Business and Economics for more than six years.
Xi has accepted many homestays, and from her own experience and what she's been told, she said there were four major problems visitors may meet when applying for homestays.
Problem 1:Having too high expectation for language improvement.
Problem 2: Considering oneself as a guest instead of a family member.
Problem 3: Not making clear what a family's rules are beforehand.
Problem 4; Overly(过分)high demands for the living environment.

Saving water is an important part of going green. As water becomes less and polluted more, conservation(保护)becomes more and more important. The less water you use, the less wastewater will end up in our rivers and lakes. Wasting water means that more water needs to be treated and cleaned, a process that requires quite a lot of energy.
As it is said above, cutting down on water usage is one of the most important things you can do for your local environment and the planet as a whole. That is why more green households are going blue: cutting down their water footprint by conserving and harvesting(收获)water.
It may seem like a big concept, but going blue starts with small changes that everyone can make. Something as simple as turning off the tap while you brush your teeth can save a lot of water. Wash your fruit and vegetables in a bowl rather than under a tap to save even more. Make sure that the taps are fully turned off every time you step away from the sink or the shower - all those little drips can add up to a lot of water waste.
Another way of reducing your water footprint is reducing your dependence on the main water supply. Rainwater harvesting can meet a lot of your home's water needs. Many of us already practice rainwater harvesting in a small way. Collecting water from your gutters(檐沟)is a great way to keep your garden green without running the sprinkler(洒水器).

A.未成熟的 B.环保 C.嫉妒 D.健康的

A. washing fruit and vegetables under a tap
B. using a bowl to wash your fruit and vegetables

4.From the passage. we can know that .
A. we can get enough water by harvesting
B. most people pay no attention to saving water
C. we can practice rainwater harvesting in a small way
D. harvesting water is more necessary than conserving it
