It’s important to learn things about protecting environment. Here’s a 4Rs rule for us.

·Reduce

If you want to reduce waste, you should use things wisely (明智的). A large number of trees are being cut down to make paper. If everyone uses paper carelessly and then throws it away, soon we would not have any trees left. Some other things are also being wasted, and people don’t know what to do with waste in big cities, so it’s necessary to reduce waste.

·Reuse

You should always think of reusing the usable (可用的) things before throwing them away. Give your clothes or things you don’t use to the poor. In a family, you may pass such clothes on to your younger brothers or sisters.

·Recycle

Bottles, cans and paper can easily be recycled. By doing so we save lots of time and money, for example, cola cans are sent to a factory, where they’re smashed flat(压平)and smelted (熔化), and the metal things are made into new cola cans.

·Repair

If one of the legs of your table is broken, you can repair it. If you want to change for better ones, it’s better for you to sell the old ones or give them to other people who can use them after doing some repair.

In China , people’s living conditions in the cities have changed a lot in the ways of transportation in the past fifty years .

A survey shows that the number of people riding a bike or walking is always decreasing . In 1974 , more than 50% of people traveled to work on their own bikes , while by 2014 , less than 20% of travelers preferred cycling or walking to work . Now the number becomes much smaller .

At the same time , there was a large increase in the use of cars . In 1974 , very few people had a car . By 1994 , about a quarter of travelers drove to work . This increased again , until 2014 , about one third of travelers drove to work .

What has caused these changes ? The main reason is that people’s living conditions have changed greatly . With the increasing number of people going by bus or car , fewer and fewer people would like to be cyclists or walkers .

As people enjoyed the convenience(便利)and speed of buses and cars , they are less likely to have patience and interest in cycling and walking . In the future , with the development of science and technology , more changes will happen in people’s everyday lives .
