21、Imagine you are taking a walk on the beautiful beach. Just then, your feet step over something and you hear a crack(噼啪声)—an empty plastic bottle. Things like this are happening more often because of sea rubbish.

Studies show that 80% of all the waste is from the land. The waste is mainly plastics (塑料制品) which are really hard to degrade(降解). So the rubbish will remain there for a long time. Some of the pollution is caused accidentally. For example, about 10, 000 productfilled boxes are lost at sea every year from business ships. Sometimes people just throw them into the water from boats or land as they like. Many large rubbish areas are formed in the North Pacific Ocean.

Thankfully, the situation isn’t ignored (忽视). Groups like the National Oceanic Atmospheric Association(NOAA) are taking action to help clean the sea. Since 2006, 76 projects have cleared out 3, 814 metric tons (公吨) of rubbish from the sea. Methods of rubbish cleaning include using machines to remove(移除) the waste away from the surface of sea water. Besides, special nets are set by the mouths of rivers to stop the rubbish before it reaches the sea. If everyone does his part, sea rubbish seems like a problem that can be solved.

22、   In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue (烤肉) restaurant, then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.

Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks’ sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.

Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers’ fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise (特许经营) other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches (拱门).

Today McDonald’s is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonald’s had over $1 billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.

23、   Have you ever jumped on a trampoline? Today many people use it for exercise.

Actually, trampolining has many advantages. It helps bones grow and improves your balance. It helps your body get rid of harmful things. Trampolining has benefits similar to those of running, but without too much stress on knees.

It's easy to find an inexpensive trampoline, but it should be well­made and strong enough to support your weight. To avoid accidents, some trampolines have a safety net around them. Remember: whenever you are on a trampoline, be careful not to jump near the edge of it.

There are many more exercises you can try. Happy trampolining!
