Want to enjoy some extreme sports(极限运动)? Here are a small number of the extreme sport clubs across universities in the UK.

	Oetopush(水中曲棍球) Oxford, York, Aberdeen and Warwick are only some of the universities that offer this rather unusual sport. Anyone who is able to swim can play. It is played by two teams of six players. Everyone wears a mask and carries a small wooden stick.
	Skiing and snowboarding Nearly every university in the UK has a skiing and snowboarding club. For example,   Brumski&Board Club of Birmingham University has run for 30 years and has about 500 members. They hold Christmas and Easter ski trips every year and take part in competitions.
	Skateboarding Warwick University is home to the Longboarding Club. A Longboard is two or three feet longer than a usual skateboard and has a wider wheel base. Instead of offering club T-shirts, the Longboarding Club lets members have their personal socks.
	BASE jumping The University of Lincoln offers BASE jumping. In BASE jumping, players jump from fixed objects and use a parachute(降落伞) to break their fall. They go on weekly trips to Skydive Hibaldstow.

I’m not the kind of mother who often brushes her daughter’s hair, and my daughter has never liked sitting quietly long enough for me to do it.

But today, I took a chair outside and let my daughter Kitty sit on it. She was sitting high with her eyes closed, skin still wet from the shower and her messy hair behind her back. I realized she was taking in every touch from my hands. Today we would send Kitty away for a week of a summer camp. This was all my idea.

She's nearly 12, and I notice that I'm with my child nearly 24 hours a day. Living on the farm without neighbors, Kitty has become increasingly dependent(依赖的) on me.

After lunch, we drove to the camp place. After we got out of the car, we were introduced to the other children. Kitty followed me closely, holding my hand all the time. "I need you for a few more minutes” she said to me, horror in her eyes.

I pulled away and walked up to a camp worker. “Excuse me," I said loudly, “I’d like to introduce you to my daughter. Maybe you could help her meet a few of these kids.” He came over to talk to Kitty and I kissed   on her face. Then we all disappeared before Kitty realized we had left.

On my way home, I felt a piece of my soul(灵魂) had been taken away from my body. I began to shake.

Tears came down my face. When I arrived home, I calmed down and reminded myself why I chose this path. “I want Kitty to have a chance to find herself, out of my shadow (影子) . If I don’t set her free, I'm afraid she won't be independent (独立的) forever.” I said to myself.

A new rubbish sorting system (垃圾分类系统) has been put into use in Fangchengyuan Community in Beijing. Local people not only sort their rubbish, but also put QR codes (二维码) on it.

“When the rubbish is collected and the codes are seen, I will get reward points to exchange for small gifts and even some money,” one of the local people told reporters. “It’s really creative and encouraging.”

This smart system has been carried out in 350 communities in Beijing. The capital of China has joined a list of cities in the country that take action to support rubbish sorting. For example, Shenzhen and Shanghai have made laws to punish sorting rubbish incorrectly.

China produces quite a lot of rubbish every year. Much of the rubbish is buried (填埋) in soil or burned without being sorted. Landfills (填埋场) take up a lot of land and have a risk of polluting the soil and water nearby. And burning rubbish can produce harmful gases. Through rubbish sorting, we can reduce the use of landfills and air pollution.

What’s more, rubbish sorting saves resources, which could bring economic benefits (经济利益). For example, a ton of waste paper can be reused to make about 850 kg of paper, saving 17 trees and 50 percent of water. Because of their benefits, some countries have developed successful sorting systems.

Japan has a strict and detailed system. When people throw away a water bottle, the cap, the wrapper (包装纸) and the bottle itself have to go into three different bins. Every year, families receive special rubbish sorting timetables and directions from their local governments. They are advised to follow the timetables and directions when they throw away rubbish.

In Australia, every family is provided with three rubbish bins — the red lid (盖子) bin for “general waste” like food and plastic bags, the yellow lid bin for “recycling” like steel and glass, and the green lid bin for “green waste” such as grass and leaves. On the streets, the bins are printed with pictures of the things that are allowed inside. It makes recycling quite easy.

Recent years have witnessed the returning of bikes across China. An increasing number of people choose cycling instead of driving to school, to workplaces or to do sightseeing. Bike-sharing plans are warmly welcomed in many cities. Mobike had 5.85 million active users while Ofo had 1.4 million in the first week of this year.

People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphones. All bikes have GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They’re popular among many Chinese people because they help solve “last-mile” problems in cities. For example, many people find it difficult to get to the hotel when they get off trains or to travel around the city.

However, the plans have also led to problems such as illegal (非法的) parking, vandalism (故意破坏) and theft. In February, two nurses in Beijing were placed under administrative detention (行政拘留) for five days for putting locks on two shared bikes.

In fact, these problems are also shared by bike-sharing plans abroad. Started in 2007, Vélib is the largest public bike sharing system in Paris. At its early period, it also met with problems of vandalism or theft. To deal with these problems, the company came up with the idea of encouraging people to return the bikes to stations by rewarding free time for their next rides.

Now, Chinese service Organizations are also trying to deal with these problems. For example, Mobike sets a 100-point credit score (信用分数) for each user, but the points will be taken because of his or her bad behavior. Once a score drops below 80, bike rental (租金) will be increased from 1 yuan to 100 yuan per 30 minutes.

Most students like junk food（垃圾食品） because it is tasty. Whether it should be allowed in schools or not is still a question. Just as every coin has two sides, junk food in schools has its advantages and disadvantages.

Most junk food is quite cheap, tasty and easy to get. If a child forgets to carry a lunch bag, he or she will go hungry for most of the day. Here, junk food helps him or her to have something to eat. Moreover, it is possible for students to save a lot of time.

Sometimes having junk food instead of a part of one’s main diet is thought to be OK. It doesn’t have a big influence on a person’s health if someone only eats from time to time.

Compared with some junk food with high oil and salt, food like potato chips or juice can be made in school dining halls. So students don’t have to choose unhealthy food from outside.

However, too much oil, salt and sugar in junk food do harm to human bodies. Some of them cannot be broken down in the body. If someone eats too much junk food, it can lead to obesity（肥胖） and other health problems like heart trouble, high blood pressure and so on.

Usually, children have snacks between classes. There is a sudden increase of sugar, so they get a lot of energy and become too active. But when classes begin, the effects（作用） of the snacks begin to reduce, they become slow. This causes low energy levels and lack of concentration（注意力）. It has a bad influence on a student’s performance during classes.

In all, it is important that parents and schools should provide their kids with healthy and balanced food and make them know the disadvantages of junk food. Then they will make healthier choices for themselves.

Many teenagers don’t get along well with their parents and they don’t know what to do. If you face such a problem, what I’m saying now might be h
71． to you.

Have you ever thought of t
72． to your parents to find out why you don’t get along well with each other? When I was a teenager, I didn’t get on well with my parents, e
73．. We sometimes argued(争吵) with each other. I am sorry that I had such an e
74．. Now I’m a mother of four girls. Of course we have different opinions, but I encourage them to communicate with me openly and honestly. In this way I make sure that they t
75． me and come to me for anything. As a r
76．, we get along very well.

Arguing with your parents will make them angry and you won’t feel good. Also, remember that the most important thing is to solve problems. Try your best to be calm. If you cannot control your f
77．, you can go to a doctor or your teacher who could give you a
78． on your problem.

Remember that your parents love you. Sometimes they do something that you find h
79． to understand. For example, you may want to be a singer in the future, but your parents want you to do something else. If s
80．, try to think in their shoes.

Life is too short and family is important! Try your best to get along well with your parents.
