Rain helps plants grow and stay green. But too much rain-especially in cities-can cause flooding. And that can make waste water systems, like sewers(下水道), flow and send polluted water into rivers and other water ways. So several cities in the United States are stating programs like rooftop(屋顶) gardens.
A team at the University of the District of Columbia has created a garden on the top of one school building.83The garden holds many kinds of plants to help receive rain water and grow food at the same time.
"It took advantage of the resource above the city that you see all over where you have these flat roofs that aren't doing anything and it really made it something that was about urban agriculture."
84Rainwater is collected in large bottles and sent through a system that waters the garden at the top of the roof. The roof is filled with green life that appeals(吸引) to insects.
"In cities, you don't have that much space, so rooftops are just unused space," says Caitlin Arlotta, a student in the school's Urban Agriculture program.
The program is growing plants including strawberries, tomatoes and sweet potatoes. "We have the same experiment running with tomatoes as we do with strawberries, so we're doing variety trials(品种实验) and we're trying just to see which variety grows the best in a green roof setting."
The program also seeks to improve cities and make them beautiful by training people to become Master Gardeners.
It is the biggest surprise that they produced 4,250 pounds of products the first year and shared that to people in need.

Being thankful to our parents is not easy but important for everyone. When I was a child, I didn't quite understand it. My mother was a middle-aged woman. She a1.showed all her love and care to me. But I thought it was common, and of course, she was supposed to do e2.for me.
Now things have changed a lot since Mr. Huang, the most i3.English teacher I have ever seen, came into my life. He was very humorous. He not only asked me to stand on the position of my mom but also encouraged me to help my mom as p4.as I could. From then on, I gradually u5.what my mom had done for me. Whenever I got into trouble, my mom was always the f6.one to encourage me. As long as she supported me, there were no d7.for me.
L8., a beautiful hand-made card was given to my mom as her 39th birthday gift. I wrote down some words I really wanted to say to her.
"Mom, I wish I could find a better word rather than thanks to s9.my feelings. I am deeply moved by the things you've done for me and never give you my thanks enough."
As time goes by, my mom is getting older, but her love without a10.for even a single return will never change. Therefore, I should value every minute I spend together with my mom, knowing that it is never too late to express my thanks to her.

Shi, with Bao,2.(become) the first woman to ever direct a short film at animation giant Pixar. Since the first showing last June, Bao and its young director3.(win) high praise. Because the film shows the loving treatment and protective love that children of Chinese can4.(experience).
Shi, who was born in Chongqing, China, moved to Toronto with her parents at a young age. Her growth experience and love of food gave her inspiration for Bao. Bao impressed us with talents and tasty Chinese food. Torontonians are so strongly proud of cultural richness.
When it was released(上映), Chinese people in Canada and across North America 5.(touch) by the way Bao so accurately(精确地) reflected their realities. The details in the family's home were so carefully recreated by Shi and her team which hit every home in a big way. For example, a mother6.(provide) her son with a delicious meal at that time.
In Shi's acceptance speech she said that the purpose of the story is to encourage all of the quiet girls (tell) 7.their stories to the world. Lots of girls were moved by what she said. A young lady said, "Now I 8.(work) in another city and has little time to take care of my parents. I9.(spend) more time with them from now on." It is really worth10.(see). Many people celebrated Bao's win.
For teenagers, especially who are going to take part in the big tests, every second is valuable and we should rethink of the ways of spending our time. Whether you have spent your time in a proper way? Here are some good suggestions for you to take.
Firstly, spend time in doing things that are really important. Spend time with your family and friends, and share your feelings and thoughts with them. Enjoy a nice hot meal and eat it slowly. Give yourself time to play and spend enough time in sleeping. Little things like this may seem meaningless. But the truth is that little things matter most in life.
Secondly, you have to know what has been done cannot be undone. Do not allow your mind to stay in the past. Every day is a new start. You have to keep your eyes and ears open to the new chance. It may not be a chance you can get immediately, but it may be a chance for new experiences.
Then, do your best in every task. If you have only one chance to do something for someone, why not do it with the best of your ability? It should not matter whether you are being praised or not. You will take pride in your work because you've done your best. Trust me, your efforts will be rewarded in time.
Lastly, every moment you spend in doing things is the time taken from your life. Don't waste your time away working day and night just for money. That is not your life's worth. The value of your time is measured by how you spend it and whom you choose to spend it with.
