On Saving Electricity
As world population grows, the energy demand is ever-increasing. And the lack of electricity is particularly conspicuous. 1
As household electricity accounts for a considerable fraction of electricity consumption, saving household electricity is significant for energy saving. 2 However, the excessive using of industrial and urban household electricity, the lack of traditional raw material to generate electricity and the waste contribute to the lack of electricity. The problem needs to be settled instantly. Electricity is precious and we should save it not only for us, but also for our offsprings.
To save electricity, initially 3 , we should raise awareness of saving electricity like reducing the using of electric lamp when unnecessary and turning off lights when leaving. Then call on more friends and family members to do so. Furthermore 3 , use energy saving lamps as much as possible, which will make a great contribution to energy saving. Last 3 , it should be encouraged to take advantage of more environmentally friendly raw material to generate electricity by government, which has less pollution to the environment.

要節(jié)約用電，首先我們應(yīng)該提高節(jié)約用電的意識(shí)，比如，在不需要的時(shí)候不開燈，用完后隨手關(guān)燈。然后，號(hào)召更多親戚朋友一起這樣做。其次，盡可能多地使用節(jié)能燈，這對(duì)節(jié)約能源會(huì)極為有利。最后，政府應(yīng)該鼓勵(lì)使用更環(huán)保的原料發(fā)電，這對(duì)環(huán)境造成的污染會(huì)更小。
