Ⅰ.阅读理解

A

If you haven't  already, you too should switch to the latest eco­friendly, energy­efficient, energy­saving LED lighting. As the world becomes more focused on green  issues, everyone should do their part in practicing energy efficiency, recycling, cutting down their CO2 emissions and much, much more. One of the most successful campaigns that started in Australia is the now  world ­famous “Earth Hour”. 2.2 million of Sydney's residents turned off their lights for an hour in a mass attempt to save  energy. The following year, the same idea was adopted by a whole host of different cities.

This is a great example of  a campaign to promote eco­friendly options and energy efficiency. But while it clearly raises awareness,  it is not a long­term solution to energy saving across the  developed  world. A  long­term  solution can be  found in the form of switching to LED lighting rather than the traditional halogen lights found in a typical home.

Put simply, LED lighting is the future of lighting. LED lamps use up only  a fraction of the energy compared to that  of regular lamps. They  also  produce a quality flicker­free light, and will last longer than a regular light with 50,000 hours being realistic. Not  only  are they longer lasting and more energy­efficient with no sacrifice in light quality, but they also have quickly become a possible substitute for lamps that have been previously installed by homes and businesses.

An ordinary 50 watt low­voltage halogen light on for 4 hours a day  would cost $  25 per year to run. With a life span of around 3,000 hours it will typically stop working at the two­year mark. Comparing with an LED light of 50 watts operating for the same period  will cost roughly $ 6 per year to run and last 50,000 hours. That means it won't have to be replaced for 24 years! It really is a no­brainer to switch to energy­saving LED lighting. Plus, you will be doing your bit for the environment by being more eco­friendly.
