Earth Hour
Earth hour started in Sydney at 7:30 pm on March 31,2007. The activity aims to save energy and improve climate. This year, more and more people all over the world took part in it on March 26. Some people had dinner with their family in the candlelight or chatted with their friends. At that time, my classmates and I were holding a party in the park, singing and dancing. Lots of people were walking in the park. And this year, Earth Hour not only asks people to turn off lights, but also calls on us to protect the environment in our daily life. We can do a lot of things. For example, we can use paper both sides. We should ride bikes or walk to school. What’s more, we’d better take our own shopping bags while shopping. Let’s do something now to help save our planet.
解析
Many people have to work on the weekend. Some people do not mind. Others think it is terrible.
One man thinks that working on the weekend can be dangerous. He is Graham Coates. Mr Coates works in an office in Brighton, England.
On Saturday, May 24, 1986, he went to the office to do some work. When he got on the lift(电梯), it stopped between floors. Mr Coates could not get out of the lift. He started to shout, but no one heard him. Then Mr. Coats remembered that it was a holiday in England. No one was going to come to work until Tuesday.
There was nothing for him to do. He had to wait until one of his workmates came to work and found him. With nothing to eat or drink, Mr Coats ended up sleeping for most of the day.
Now Mr. Coates says, "I only use lifts if they have telephones in them."
