20、was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office. In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade.

27、ity show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. Margaret Barnes, a pediatrician, believes in the importance of exercise.

28、bies. In studies with seniors, research has shown that exercise helps older people as well. The exercise doesnt have to be very difficult. The main goal is just to increase the heart rate.

Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs? These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man m
33、ight be able to solve both problems at the same time. (83)They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the same time it can save the land to hold garbage.

As we use up our fossil fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source. Buring garbage is not a new ideASome citie
35、s in Europe and the United States have been buring garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water.
