These days, everyone knows it’s important to protect the environment and reduce (减少) the waste of energy. But do you know what to do? Read about Peter and his family—they’ve got some great ideas!
Mary: Hello, Peter. First of all, why did you decide to become eco-friendly (生态友好的)?
Peter: Well, my dad always tells me to turn off the TV or computer. He kept saying that it wasn’t good for the planet. That’s when I realized the importance of being eco-friendly in daily life.
Mary: What do you do?
Peter: Well, we do usual things, like turning off the computer and TV in time, using energy-saving lights...but we found that wasn’t enough.
Mary: What else do you do?
Peter: Well, I get up half an hour earlier during the week and go to school by bike.
Mary: ________?
Peter: My dad uses public transport to work. My mum turns her phone off every evening, although she finds it difficult.
Mary: Wow, do you often do something fun together in no-phone time?
Peter: Yes. We sometimes play ball games or have a trip. It makes our family members closer.
Mary: Sounds good. Thank you for your time.
