The ＂green＂ car has become popular in recent years. It means that a car is environmentally friendly.
Today, most cars are powered by petrol(汽油). They make our lives easier. Two of the biggest problems are noise pollution and air pollution.
With the world’s population(人口) growing quickly, we have to think of ways to make cars that are better for the environment. One day, maybe you can help invent a clean car that makes people, animals, and plants happy! There are a few new types of cars that do not use petrol. We are still learning to make these cars better.
Electric cars: An electric car uses a battery(电池) for its power. When you are not driving it, just plug it in like a mobile phone to give the battery more power. Some electric cars are much cleaner than petrol cars.
Fuel cell(燃料电池) cars: Car makers are now learning about how fuel cells can be used to power cars. Fuel cells use hydrogen(氢气) and oxygen(氧气) to make power. The only waste gas they produce is clean water.
Solar(太阳能) cars: A solar car has large panels(嵌板) on its top that get power from the sunlight. The car holds that power in a battery. Solar cars might be the cleanest of all. But no one uses them, because solar panels can’t get enough power from the sun to make a car go for a long time. Also, they are very slow.

In nature, you may see many insects and animals of different colors. Have you ever wondered why Locusts are super delicious food for birds, but it is not always an easy job for birds to catch them. It is neither because locusts are good jumpers or runners nor because they are smarter than their enemies. The reason is that the colors of locusts change with the colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are young, locusts look green. But when autumn comes, locusts change to the yellow and brown color as crops do.
Brown bears, tigers and other animals move quietly through forests. They can’t be seen easily by their enemies. This is because they have colors similar(类似的) to the trees. For the same reason, polar bears that live on a land of snow and ice are white. Butterflies and bees living among the flowers are colorful like flowers. Soil(土壤） insects are mostly dark-colored and they live under the soil in a dark and wet environment. However, insects with colors different from plants can easily be found and eaten by others. So in order to survive, they have to hide themselves in the daytime and appear only at night.
Have you ever noticed some even stranger acts? The ink fish (墨鱼) in the sea can send out some very black ink when it faces danger. As the ink spreads over (散开) , its enemies(敌人) will find themselves suddenly in a dark world. At the same time the ink fish immediately swims away. That is how it keeps itself safe though it is not strong at all.
