Chinese medicine, 1 modern medicine, has a different philosophy. Instead
of focusing on a patient’s health problems, Chinese medicine tries to make the patient’s
whole body well again. 2 , doctors of Chinese medicine believe that inside people,
there are two types of energy. The first type of energy, called “yin,” is quiet and
3 . The other type of energy, called “yang,” is active. When these two energies are
in equal balance, a person is healthy. When there is an imbalance—too much yin,
4 —a person becomes unhealthy. A doctor of Chinese medicine doesn’t try to stop
a person’s cough by giving a cough medicine. Instead, the doctor gives a mixture of
herbs that will restore balance in the patient’s body. 5 , when the body is in
balance, the cough will stop naturally.

One of the most difficult realities that people must face is the destruction and
cruelty of war. In recent times, the suffering of the city of Sarajevo in the former republic

Responsible tourism is considered an  10  ecotourism that encourages
socially responsible travel. In other words, responsible tourism is about supporting fair
trade, ecotourism, and local community businesses. In China, responsible tourism
initiatives include bringing educational materials from one’s home country, taking the
materials to schools, and interacting with the teachers and students. In Beijing, the
Hutong Tour  11  tourists interact closely with the local people, and the locals
benefit from the income and are able to  12  their culture.
 13  , a major problem with ecotourism and responsible tourism in China is the
changing attitudes of tourists. Many tourists these days have higher standards than ever
before. They ear the unsanitary conditions in the rural areas,  14  the attraction of
the natural beauty.  15  , many tourists are only interested in consumption rather
than increasing the ir knowledge about the cultural heritage of an area.

One job many environmentalists have today is to find different ways to  16 
waste, or trash, rather than throwing it all in landfills. Many landfills are  17  ;
others are limited in their use. Of all the waste in the United States, 25 percent is organic
plant matter which can actually be  18  . So rather than throwing table scraps and
other natural waste into landfills, people are looking for ways to use them more
productively.
One of the ways environmentalists have supported is composting, the process of
taking plant matter, breaking it down, and turning it into a nutrient-rich organic material.
Microorganisms break down, or decompose, the plant matter  19  sunlight and
water. The sunlight and water keep the material warm and moist, which helps the
decomposing process. Because the material, called compost, is high in nutrients,
