A

Here

is

a

shortened

list

of

books

planned

by

TIME

and

TIME

for

Kids

that

are

suitable

for

elementary

schoolers.

To

make

the

list,

we

asked

for

submissions

from

climate

and

education

experts.

We

then

considered

how

age-appropriate

the

material

was,

and

whether

the

tone

and

story

line

left

the

reader

feeling

engaged

and

empowered

—

rather

than

anxious

or

overwhelmed.

the

planet,

this

shows

the

will

see

the

action,

of

the

Standing

Rock

Sioux’s

fight

against

the

Dakota

Access

Pipeline.

THE

materials

during

an

extreme

drought

—

an

inspiring

tale

for

future

clean-energy

engineers.

THE

LORAX

By

Dr.

Seuss

Thanks

to

its

rhyme

and

fanciful

illustrations,

this

classic

tale

is

suitable

for

young

children

who

can

grasp

the

scarcity

of

natural

resources,

and

also

older

kids

who

can

see

a

danger

in

valuing

B

On

a

tram

smoothly

pulling

into

the

heart

of

Luxembourg

City,

Marck

gives

a

smile

and

takes

a

look

at

the

fabric

of

the

seat

him. For

him,

the

city’ s

trams

are

more

than

just

transport.

More

even

than

the

focus

of

his

job. They

are

about

transforming

his

country

and,

perhaps,changing

the

world.

Marck

is

the

director

general

of

Luxtram,

Luxembourg’s

modern

trams.

It

first

started

running

services

two

years

ago.

Luxembourg

will

become

the

world’ s

only

country

to

get

rid

of

fares

on

all

its

forms

of

public

transport.

Luxembourg’ s

traffic

problems

come

from

its

army

of

workers.

The

population

of

the

capital

city

almost

doubles

during

the

working

day,

when

more

than

110,000

people

travel

in

and

out.

After

three

decades

when

its

roads

have

become

so

crowded,

Luxembourg

is

going

to

do

something

remarkable.

Free

fares,

and

a

plan

to

persuade

people

to

switch

from

cars

to

trams

or

trains.

Marck,

along

with

many

others,

is

excited

to

see

what

happens

next.

“The

fact

that

this

is

free

means

that

everyone

can

use

it

—

young

or

old,

rich

or

poor,”

he

said.

“Everyone

can

say

to

themselves

it’ s

better

to

leave

the

car

at

home.

We

must

continue

to

improve

and

extend

the

network.

It

must

always

be

comfortable,

well-connected,

efficient. ”

Lydie

Polfer,

the

city’s

mayor,

says

she

hopes

to

reach

the

point

where

more

than

a

third

of

people

come

into

the

city

using

public

transport

—

at

the

moment,

it’s

less

than

one

in

five.

She

said,

“It’ s

not

practical

to

ban

cars

because

some

people,

like

the

elderly,

need

them.

But

everyone

has

to

be

aware

that

he

or

she

can

do

something

to

improve

the

situation. There

is

an

expression

in

German

—

you

are

not

in

the

traffic

jam

—

you

are

the

traffic

jam,

and

that

is

true.

I

think

that

making

it

free

will

be

the

biggest

arguments

for

people

to

use

public

transport. ”

4. Why

does

Marck

think

the

city’s

trams

are

more

than

just

transport?

A. The

trams

are

his

goal

that

he

strives

for.

B. There

are

more

means

of

transportation

than

trams.

C. City’s

trams

bring

more

changes

beyond

transport.

D. The

trams

are

the

heart

of

Luxembourg

City

transport

system.

5. What

does

paragraph2

mainly

talk

about?

A. The

cause

of

the

traffic

problems. B. The

means

of

public

transport.

C. The

development

of

running

services. D. The

increase

of

working

population.

6. What

concerns

people

most

when

using

the

public

transport?

A. The

convenience. B. The

fare. C. The

comfort. D. The

efficiency.

7. What

can

be

inferred

from

what

Lydie

Polfer

said?

A. The

elderly

needn’t

use

public

transport.

B. It’s

possible

to

persuade

most

people

to

use

the

trams.

C. Everyone

can

do

his

part

to

improve

transport

situation.

D. Those

who

don’t

take

public

transport

cause

traffic

jams.

C

Have

you

ever

wished

you

could

be

better

organised

or

more

sociable?

Perhaps

you’ re

a

constant

worrier,

and

you’d

prefer

to

be

a

little

more

carefree?

Many

surveys

show

that

at

least

two-thirds

of

people

would

like

to

change

some

elements

of

their

personality.

In

the

past,

such

desires

appeared

to

be

unachievable. Like

the

proverbial

leopard

that

could

never

change

its

spots,

our

virtues

and

flaws

were

believed

to

be

woven

into

the

fabric

of

our

minds.

Recent

scientific

research,

however,

proves

this

expectation

of

personality ’ s

permanence

wrong.

With

the

right

psychological

strategies

and

enough

effort,

many

people

can

successfully

shape

their

core

personalities

into

what

they

desire.

Our

genes

almost

certainly

play

a

role:

it’s

why

people’s

personalities

often

reflect

their

biological

parents’ ones.

The

influence

of

our

social

environment

was

thought

to

end

in

early

adulthood,

as

the

brain

reached

maturity.

If

this

were

true,

it

wouldn’ t

be

possible

to

shift
