A
The idea of daylight saving time started with an American Benjamin Franklin(1706—1790). He explained how a lot of the money spent on candles used for light(this was before electricity)could be saved if everyone woke up earlier and went to bed earlier.
Even though Franklin’s idea had a clear meaning, most people didn’t want to get up earlier than they had to. Who would?It wasn’t until 1907 that an Englishman named William Willet came up with a way to “make” the sun set later. His idea was to turn clocks forward by 20 minutes on each of the Sundays in April, for a total of 80 minutes.
William’s idea was laughed at, at first. But when World War I started in 1914, many countries decided they had to save energy for the war. Daylight saving time has other uses. The more time you spend outside playing, the less time you are spending in front of the computer or the TV. These things also use energy. Also, daylight saving time sometimes causes problems. For example, China used it in 1986—but stopped it in 1991. That was because the temperatures are quite different from North to South and time from East to West
If people from northwest of China use daylight saving time , sometimes they have to get up to work when it is not very bright outside . That will cause some trouble for them. Still, most parts of the world do have daylight saving time, and most people look forward to the extra hour of evening light.
( ) 1. Why did Franklin give the idea of daylight saving?
A. To save the money. B. To save time. C. To wake up earlier. D. To go to bed earlier.
( ) 2. In what year was the idea of daylight saving time put in use?
A. In 1907. B. In 1914. C. In 1986. D. In 1991.
( ) 3. When daylight saving time is used, ________.
A. you can play outside B. you have more time watching TV
C. you have more time spending in front of the computer D. you can save energy
( )4. Why is daylight saving time not used in China now.
A. People wouldn’t like to get up earlier B. The temperatures are quite different.
C. The country is large D. The time is quite different.
