The earth is about 4，600 million years old. We humans have lived on the earth for only 35，000 years， but during this period we have changed our planet a lot in many ways.

All over the world， people have cut down millions of trees， so more and more kinds of animals and plants are disappearing. In big cities， cars and buses have polluted the air. Factories have also polluted the land and the water.

It is important to the earth. But now air pollution is destroying it and that has made a very big hole in the ozone layer （臭氧層）. ?This is very dangerous because it can cause cancer.

Carbon dioxide （二氧化碳） in the air has increased a lot. ?It has formed a “blanket” around the earth.

There are many things we need to know that we do not learn at school. For example， if we want to make good use of our money， we need to shop wisely. We need to be able to find good things. We need to know how to compare the prices of the same things in different shops.

Knowing how to make such choices is a “l(fā)ife skill”， and we need these skills if we want to live useful and happy lives. ?For example， will I take an apple for lunch or a pear？ Will I go to school by bus or on foot？ Will I wear the red T-shirt or the blue one to the movies？ ?For example， will I eat healthy food for lunch or will I eat junk food because it is tastier？ Will I work hard in all my classes or will I only work hard in the classes I enjoy？

We have to realize that the choices we make can affect （影響） the rest of our lives.

The next time you decide to waste time in class， play a joke on someone or talk loudly at the movies， think about this： who else does your choice affect？

A. Ask your parents for help.

B. Some of our choices are small.

C. Its very easy to make a choice.

D. Other choices are more important.

E. We make choices like above every day.

F. Our choices can affect other people， too.
