| Things You Can Do to Help the Environment CARS Cars are getting bigger. Bigger cars burn more gas and increase problems with air pollution. So try to walk, ride, or take buses or subways. And if you drive a car, keep it in a good state. This can save gas and make less pollution. Energy The biggest use of home energy is for heating and cooling. So turn up your air conditioned and ,um down the heat, especially at night. Use energy-saving lights. And remember to turn lights off. PRODUCTS Each American throws away 10 kilograms of litter everyday. Try to make less waste. Ask yourself before you buy something: Do I need it? Buy products that you can use over and over again. WATER Showers use a lot of water. In one week, a common American family uses as much water as a person drinks in three years! Take shorter showers or buy a special small showerhead. This can cut water use in half. |

In most parts of the world, many students help their schools make less pollution. They join “environment clubs”. In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clear.
Here are some things students often do.
No-garbage lunches. How much do you throw away after lunch? Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least garbage and report them to the whole school!
No-car day. On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car--- not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to our air, so remember: Walk, jog, bike or run. Use your legs! It’s lots of fun!
Turn off the water! Do you know that some toilets can waste twenty to forty m3 of water an hour! In a year, that would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets. We love our environment. Let’s work together to make it clean.

Driving a car at a high speed along a highway seems to be fun. You only need to follow the bright traffic signs beside the highway and it will take you where you wish to go. But to a London taxi driver, driving is not an easy job. A taxi driver needs to have not only good driving skills but also a good knowledge of the city of London, from the loneliest street to the popular restaurant around. He has to be at the service of all kinds of passengers (乘客) at all times.
A London taxi driver said the following about his job.
During the night it is usual for him to stop two or three times for some food. He said, “I never drink when I’m working, otherwise I’d lose my license (驾驶执照).”
He normally goes home between two and three o’clock in the morning. There are times he has to stay longer and try to make more runs. He said, “That’s the worst thing about working for yourself. If you don’t make money, no one is going to give it to you. ”
London taxi drivers not only “take” but also “give”. Every summer hundreds of poor children from London go for a day at the sea ― by taxi! There rides are paid by the taxi drivers. At the sea, they are met by the mayor (市长) , and a lunch party is also held for the taxi drivers and the children. After a happy day’s running around the beaches and visiting the market there, the children go home again by taxi, free of charge of course!
