● Make a garden. Even simply grow some plants in your kitchen, which will help produce more oxygen while

eating up some of that evil CO2.

● Buy local groceries. It creates less impact on the environment. Besides, you're supporting your local

farmers.

simply reusing a water bottle instead of buying a huge pack at the store.

● Don't run the water while brushing. It saves you money and helps the water resources.

The city has one of the largest population in the U. S. of young people between the ages of 18 and 34. This

generation is often called millennials (新千年一代). More than half of millennials in Los Angeles are bilingual (双

语的), which means they speak more than one language.

Maria Elena Burgos is cooking a Mexican breakfast. She says making Mexican food is just one of the many

traditions in her home. Another is speaking Spanish to her children.

“We want them to be bilingual. We want to keep the Spanish somewhere in their learning too, not only at

home.”

When Ms Burgos first came to the United States from Mexico, she learned English. She knew her children

would learn English quickly. So she wanted them to speak Spanish at home and study the language at school.

She says being bilingual will give them more opportunities in the future. Knowing Spanish also means the

children can talk with their s in Mexico.

“When we had our children, one of the decisions we as parents made was to name them with a name that

was easily pronounced in English and Spanish.”

Elizabeth wants to know her family’s culture.” “The culture-to go back to our roots because that’s part of who

we are.”

Monica wants to pass on the culture to her children

“It’s nice to know our culture and then to be able to pass it onto our children and grand- children and

everyone to let them know where we come from.”

And, Monica says she does not speak only English and Spanish. She has even learned some Korean in school.
