On average, Americans waste as much energy as two-thirds of the world’s population consumes. That’s largely the result of driving inefficient(无效力的)cars, using inefficient appliances,and living and working in poorly insulated buildings.
Then what can you do to improve the situation
Buy energy-efficient products. Buy new appliances(电器)or electronics of the highest energy efficiency rating. New energy-efficient models may cost more initially(最初, 起初), but have a lower operating cost over their lifetimes. The most energy-efficient models carry the Energy Star Label(能源中心标签), which identifies products that use 20-40 percent less energy than standard new products. According to the EPA, the typical American household can save about $400 per year in energy bills with products that carry the Energy Star.
Switch(调换)to compact fluorescent bulbs(袖珍的荧光灯). Change the three bulbs you use most in your house to compact fluorescent. Each compact fluorescent bulb will keep half a ton of carbon dioxide out of the air over its lifetime. Moreover, compact fluorescent bulbs last ten times as long and can save $30 per year in electricity costs.
Set heating and cooling temperatures correctly. Check thermostats in your home to make sure they are set at a level that doesn’t waste energy. Get an electronic thermostat(恒温调节器) that will allow your furnace (火炉)to heat the house to a lower temperature when you’re sleeping and return it to a more comfortable temperature before you wake up.
Turn off the lights. Turn off lights and other electrical appliances such as televisions and radios when you’re not using them. Install automatic timers (安装自动计时器) for lights that people in your house frequently forget to turn off when leaving a room.

Read the passage and choose the best answer.
Some scientists say that animals in the oceans are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings.
The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activities. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves.
Decibels (分贝) measured in water are different from those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety-five would have the same effect.
Some scientists have proposed setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in oceans. They have observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales.
A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. This seriously affected the whales' ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected(感染的).
Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds object to(反对) a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. They say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research.
Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists suspect that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harming creatures in the ocean.
1. According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures
A. The man-made noises.
B. The noises made by themselves.
C. The sound of earthquakes.
D. The sound of the ice-breaking.
2. Which of the following is discussed in the third paragraph
A. Different places with different types of noises.
B. The very human ears sensitive to all types of noises.
C. The same noise measured differently on land and in the ocean.
D. The ocean animals' reaction to noises.
3. As to the influence of noises on whales, which of the following statements is true
A. They are deaf to noises.
B. Noises at a certain level may hurt them.
C. They are easily confused by noises.
D. Noises will limit their ability to reproduce.
4. We can know from the passage that many researchers think that the noise limit of one hundred twenty decibels would _____.
A. prevent them from doing their research work
B. benefit them a lot in their research work
C. do good to their health
D. increase the industrial output
5. According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future
A. They will try their best to decrease noise.
B. They will work hard to cut down noise pollution.
C. They will study the effect of different noises.
D. They will protect animals from harmful noises.
