　　What started as a one－man project to raise awareness about climate change has become a movement with worldwide support.

　　On December 6th, the day of Kim Nguyen's arrival in Copenhagen, his supporters arranged events focusing on sustainable transport in 50 countries?

　　“Many people think that one single person can't make a difference, and honestly, I expected to arrive in Copenhagen all alone. But you have to be optimistic.

　　Anything is possible when you put your mind to it，” Kim Nguyen says.

　　He was surprised by the visible impact of climate change that he observed on his journey.

　　“You never hear of the consequences of global warming in countries such as Kazakhstan or Mongolia.The citizens in these countries might not know about COP15, but they are very concerned about the changes they have experienced during the last years.”

　　Therefore, Kim Nguyen recorded video messages in each country he visited.He will hand the messages over to the Australian Minister for Climate Change in Copenhagen.

　　Kim Nguyen stresses that everybody can do something to stop global warming：“You can act against climate change in three ways: on a political, a personal and a community level. Be an activist or work on implementing (贯彻) green strategies in your company and your local

　　environment, and act responsible on an everyday basis.”

　　Personally, he is already planning a new project with focus on sustainable transport and cultural interaction.

　　IV.书面表达

　　Life is Meant to Be Shared

　　人是社会中的生物。各种各样的人际关系是维持社会发展的纽带。生活需要和他人分享喜怒哀乐，否则生活就不完整，所以在别人需要你的帮助的时候，请伸出你友好的双手；不要害怕付出，用自己的爱心去感化别人，去完善自己的生活。

　　A lonely life is the saddest kind.Life is not meant to be spent behind closed doors or on an island trapped by a boundless ocean.

　　The beauty of life can only be experienced in the wonderful harmony of various relationships —between yourself and your family, your friends, your neighbors, even a stranger. Life is meant to be shared.People who feel their lives are incomplete need to find someone to complete it. The poor need help, it's true, but the lonely need it even more.

　　We all know how to meet the emotional needs of others: through sympathy, help, kindness and love. However, we tend to hold ourselves back because of our fear and mistrust. We tend to think that people who seem to need us are just pretending, or that they're not really worthy of our help.

　　True, there are people who just want a free ride or a free lunch, and will take advantage of those who are warm－hearted.This should not hinder us. We need only think of the story of the good Samaritan, who gives new life to a total stranger through a selfless act of love. Don't be afraid to help, and don't be scared to approach someone who seems to need it. Reach out, open the door of life and let those who need help know that someone is there to lend a helping hand.Life really is meant to be shared.
