(一)
We hear a lot about how we should change our lives to help save our planet. Jim Barnes, 15, from Oxford, talks about what his family does every day to save the planet.
A common UK family produces more than one ton of rubbish a year. Some of this waste takes hundreds of years to decay. We also spend lots of money buying new things to replace the things we throw away.
So to help save the planet and save money, our family has decided to recycle everything. We collect used things, such as paper and bottles, and put them into different bins. After they are treated in the recycling place they can be used again. This will help reduce (减少) a lot of waste. We’re also going to grow our own vegetables and we already keep hens. Soon, we can eat our own eggs for breakfast.

What’s more, we try to use our car less to cut down on air pollution. My dad organizes a car pool (拼车) with our neighbors and they take turns driving to work. And I ride my bicycle to school. How cool is that?!
