I found a chained sliding door that was wide enough for me to pass through.Inside, there was a heavy smell of dead mice in the dark. After my eyes adjusted, I noticed a shaft (升降机井) that rose all the way to the top of the barn. On one side was a one-man elevator with a long rope and roller.I stepped onto the platform and gave the rope a drag and the elevator began sliding up the shaft, but stopped halfway. After a brief panic attack, I noticed holes in the wall at regular intervals, forming a ladder. For reasons known only to an 11-year-old, I decided it would be better to go up than down. So, with shaking hands, I began climbing the wall.After what seemed like forever, I reached the top of the shaft. I stood up, dusted myself off and found absolutely nothing of interest. It was just an empty room with a ladder leading up to the roof. I climbed all the way up here for this? Then I noticed a fire extinguisher（灭火器）,which Id always wanted to shoot off. So this was the chance of a lifetime. I tried it, and, much to my surprise, the thing worked! It shot out a thick cloud of powder that instantly filled the room. I couldnt breathe. I was going to choke to death, and theyd probably never even find my body.Luckily, I remembered the ladder to the roof. I climbed up, popped the straw roof and saw a bright blue sky. I suddenly realized the dust and powder pouring out of the top could draw attention. So when the dust had settled, I climbed down and slipped out of the chained door. Im not sure if I was more excited about being alive or about not being caught, but I ran all the way back home. 56.

More than 9, 000 representatives gathered for a United Nations conference on climate change. Organizers called the meeting to work toward a treaty(条约)to fight rising temperatures on our planet. The treaty would be signed in 2015 and take effect after 2020. In the United States, the Environmental Protection Agency is leading government efforts to fight climate change. The agency just ended a series of public hearings across the country. The EPA was seeking comments as it considers tightening clean air rules for coal burning power plants. David Doniger is a climate policy expert. He says it is the duty of the EPA to control carbon as a pollutant. He wants the agency to establish new rules that would move the United States toward a cleaner energy environment. "No one is coming up with standards that would knock out all those power plants. We're talking about a shift from the dirtier ones to the cleaner ones, and from all those fossil fuel- powered ones towards renewable and even nuclear sources of energy. " He says the government is responsible for protecting clean air ,not protecting old and dirty power stations. He says, "That's the only way that we can continue to have the way of life we want without running into the wall on climate change impacts, which in turn will destroy the quality of life we have." The EPA is now considering comments from the nationwide hearings. The agency plans to announce proposed rule changes in June.60. The United Nations conference was held to _.

The good cooking smells still stayed. My sister, our chef, was enjoying the compliments.一“Delicious meal!” “Everything was wonderful.” Dad had risen from his chair and was contentedly standing nearby.My nephew, never one to sit still for too long, began playing his new basketball around the table and throughout the kitchen. Upon nearing Dad，he stoppedalmost uncertainly. With shaking, wrinkled hands, Dad had reached out for the ball. He did not speak, and the boy, confused, looked up and over at usIt took some convincing, but the ball was lightly passed over. I watched my father closely to see what he would do. A playful smile appeared on his face. Holding the ball and reaching forward, Dad bounced it on the floor then caught it. This action was repeated. Nodding approvingly, he then turned towards our assembled group. Gently throwing the ball away, Dad began a game of catchThe ball continued to be passed though eager pairs of outstretched hands. Cries of “Over here!” rang through the warm kitchen. Dads active participation in this game was remarkable to me, since he had advanced Alzheimers disease. This disease had robbed him of many memories and the recognition of people, places and points in time.In my younger years, playing with Dad was rare. To his c
