When we think of food farming, we usually think of green fields in the country outside the city. Sam Chee works on a very different type of farm, in the center of the Canadian city of Toronto. “We grow fruits, vegetables and herbs," says Sam. “But not many people know the farm is here. You can't see it from the street. We're on top of an office building, 50 meters above the ground.”

Rooftop farming is becoming popular in cities like Toronto, New York and London. The roofs of buildings are often just wasted space, but this space can be used for growing good fresh food right in the middle of the city. Sam explains how it works. “We grow everything in big pots and boxes-there are hundreds of them. We catch rainwater to water the plants when the weather is dry.”

The rooftop farm where Sam works belongs to a restaurant called Green Garden, on the ground floor of the building. The farm produces about half the restaurant's fruits and vegetables. Sam believes that the rooftop farm is what makes Green Garden special. “We help to keep food production local. We don't need to transport this food from anywhere, and that saves energy. It's better for the environment.”

The food from the rooftop is fresher too. “When the fruit and vegetables are ripe (成熟), we can pick them and use them right away. They taste better when they’re really fresh," says Sam

“I hope that there will be more rooflop farms in the city soon. It could be the farming of the future.”

Your smartphone may seem like the center of your entertainment, but a Kent State University study shows that too much phone use is taking the fun right out of our spare time. Researchers watched a group of nearly 600 students and recorded their daily smartphone use.

Half were considered in the “high-use" group experienced more stress during their spare time than the other group. So what can we do in order to really take advantage of our spare time? We have collected the following activities that also take a few hours to complete, but best part of all, you'll improve your health in the process. Whether you're at home or on holiday, it's important to disconnect from the Wi-Fi. Walking in nature can do good to your health. As a professional (职业的) traveler, Samantha Brown put it in a recent passage, "I put my map in my back pocket, putdown my phones and take a good, long walk. Just walk around." Go to bed earlier. What can help improve your mood (心情)? Extra sleep, naturally. Getting the right amount of sleep is very important to our health and studies show that we don't get enough of it. How many students experienced more stress during their spare time than the other group?

Read a book. And let yourself get lost in a good story. Research shows that reading can reduce stress, keep your brain sharp and can even help you sleep better. Everyone should spend at least 30 minutes reading every day.

Putting pen to paper is good exercise. Try writing down your thoughts. Writing has a lot of health advantages. Besides, writing down your thoughts may even help clear your mind.

Do sports as often as possible. Keep at least 20 minutes for outdoor activities. This makes you active all the time.
