Dear Diary,
It’s me, your best friend and brother, George! I just came back from a great party and I have to tell you about it. There was a really cool man there. He did magic tricks! He was really something.

Then he made all of the letters on the page change color-from black through yellow to red. He even had more than one color on the page at one time.
He was just getting started, though. The next magic trick was so cool that everyone at the party went crazy. He had a big hat with nothing in it. He put the hat on a table and asked someone for some money. I gave him some of mine. I know what you’re thinking, but wait until you know what happened. He put the money in the hat. Then he pulled out a special tool and pointed it at the hat. Right then, the hat was on fire! I thought he was burning my money, so I started to get cross. However, he told me it was OK, and he pulled the money out of his pocket and handed it to me. Well, I didn’t know what to say! This was such a great trick that I couldn’t help laughing and clapping.

27、 In the United States, people throw away 500 million plastic straws(吸管) every day! They are enough to circle the Earth twice. Unluckily, they are almost never recycled, because they are too small.
Now, plastic straws are the aim of environmental movements. Among them is Be Straw Free. A 23-year-old young man, Milo Cress, started the movement at the age of 16. “I noticed that whenever I ordered a drink at a restaurant, it would come with a straw,” he said. “This seems like a huge waste.”

In other countries, there are similar movements. In the United Kingdom, many restaurants now use paper straws instead of plastic ones. The British government is planning to ban all plastic waste by 2042.
