Directions: You are to write in 100-120 words on the topic “My Ways of Saving Energy”. You should base your composition on the outline given in Chinese below:
1. 人类对自然资源的需求日益增大,
2. 可利用的资源越来越少,
3. 谈谈如何从自身做起节约能源。
Modern technology has enabled people to enjoy better life than before. Meanwhile, people have an increasing demand of energy to satisfy their daily needs, such as lighting and transportation, etc.
Natural resources are limited, and with the endless demand from human beings, the amount of the resources will decrease rapidly.
We need to cultivate energy-saving habits. On the one hand, we should turn off the computer monitor every time after we shut it down. The monitor, if left on, still consumes electricity even though the computer connected to it has been turned off. On the other hand, we should choose public transportation whenever it is appropriate. Travelling by subway and bus will save much more energy than driving a car. (120 words)
