In the 13^th century, the famous Italian traveler, Marco Polo, traveled a long way to China. During his stay in China, he saw many wonderful things. One of the things he discovered was that the Chinese used paper money. In western countries, people didn’t use the paper money until 15^th century. However, people in China began to use paper money in the 7^th century.

   A Chinese man called Cai Lun invented paper almost 2,000 years ago. He took the wood from trees and made it into paper. He then put these pieces of paper together and made them into a book.

   Now paper still comes from trees. We use a lot of paper every day. If we keep on wasting so much paper, there will not be any trees left on the earth. If there are no trees, there will be no paper. Every day, people throw away about 2,800 tons of paper in our city. It takes 17 trees to make one ton of paper. This means that we are cutting nearly 48,000 trees every day. Since it takes more than 10 years for a tree to grow, we must start using less paper now.

   So how can we save paper? We can use both sides of every piece of paper, especially when we are making notes. We can use cotton handkerchiefs and not paper ones. When we go shopping, we can use fewer paper bags. If the shop assistant gives us a paper bag, we can save it and reuse it later.

   Everyone can help to save paper. If we all think carefully, we can help protect trees. But we should do it now, before it is too late.

CONFUCIUS would be happy if he lived in the modern world. He would see his works and philosophies still popular among teenagers even though they speak Internet slang (網(wǎng)絡(luò)語言), like PK, PLMM and GG.

In Changzhou No 2 Middle School, Jiangsu, all Senior 1 students now take a course in "Lun Yu" (The Analects of Confucius, 《論語》), once a week. The school aims to improve students' appreciation of the Confucian heritage as well as ancient Chinese civilization.

"Students' attendance in this course will account for 30 percent of their Chinese score on the final exam. This reward encourages their interest in the course, which is difficult but full of wisdom," said Cao Yongzhong, a Chinese teacher at the school.

It won't be easy for students to enjoy The Analects of Confucius in ancient Chinese as they have so many other subjects to learn and exams to prepare for.

Cheng Yun, 17, didn't like the "additional burden" at first, but now it turns out to be a course that she looks forward to.

"I thought it would take up my time for homework, but it doesn't. Confucius' sentences are short and concise (精煉的). I even use some of his wise sayings in my compositions, which makes my writing more persuasive," Cheng said.

Despite the fact that all students are required to learn some chapters of the book when in junior school, they may be too young to understand the truths revealed by Confucius.

"Although I prefer the language we use nowadays to Confucius', 'The master said' in the book does help me shape my personality," said Zhang Junzhuo, 17.

Here are some of Confucius' sayings. See if you can figure out to which sentences they are in "The Analects of Confucious":

• Learning without thought is labour lost; thought without learning is perilous.

• The superior man is modest in his speech, but exceeds in his actions.

• The gentle man is open and at ease; the mean man is full of worries and anxieties.

• Don't do to others what you would not want done to yourself.

• The mechanic who wishes to do his work well must first sharpen his tools.
