节约资源的重要性和措施英语作文(20篇)

节约是什么？有人说,节约是不浪费东西；有人说节约是把废物回收再利用；还有人说，节约是不剩饭菜......在你的眼里，节约是什么？我认为节约就是习爷爷提出的：节约用水、节约用电、节约粮食。

节约是利用废弃物资。我们平时可以把洗脸，洗脚水用来浇花，拖地。根据国家调查，如果每人节约一盘水，总量达1300000吨！这是多么庞大、多么惊人的数字啊！是的，只要人人为节约事业出一份力，就向成功迈进了一大步！

节约是不浪费粮食。我曾在电视上看过这样一个公益广告：在饭桌上，有一碗冒着热气的米饭，可是将米饭旋转半圈后，我惊奇的发现，那只是半碗饭，另一半连碗带饭都不见了,屏幕上出现了一行字：“如果中国每人每天浪费半碗米饭，那每年会浪费2亿吨粮食！”我呆住了，望着天花板，心久久不能平静......

节约是不浪费一度电，在家用电器不用时拔掉插头。

我们是祖国的花朵，保护我们的祖国，保护我们的家园，践行三节三爱是我们每个人都应该要去做的事情。行动起来，让三节三爱传遍中国吧!

Some people think that opportunities result from luck.They think that it occurs randomly and are being given to people for no reason.Some think that there is no such thing as an opportunity,and that everything gained by a person must be done through hard work.But it is undeniable that opportunities are very important.They are like the extra step-up that puts you above the rest of the crowd should you be lucky enough to get it.I believe that opportunities are indeed fate; however,only those who are well prepared can grasp the opportunity given to them and make a change to their lives.

参考范文

as we all know, water is essential in our daily life. we drink water every day, we use water to wash things and cook food, we also use water to make machines. people cant live without water.

我们都知道水对于日常生活的重要性。我们每天喝水，用水洗东西和烹制食物，我们还用水来制造机器。离开水，人类就无法存活。

though about 75% of the earth is covered with water, only 3% of it is fresh water. so we must save water by having a shower instead of a bath. we can save water by fixing dripping taps immediately and we can also save water by not washing under a running tap.

虽然地球75%都被水覆盖，但其中只有3%是淡水。所以我们应该用淋浴代替泡澡来节约水，同时及时修好滴水的水龙头，并且不要开着水龙头洗东西。

Some people think theres much water on the earth.In fact,there is only a little water for us to use now.If we dont save it,it will surely be used out some day.

Then what should we do?

First,when we finish washing the clothes,we can use the water to clean the floor.Second,if we see the dripping tap,we ought to fix the tap as soon as possible.Third,we can have a shower instead of a bath because having a bath can waste a lot of water.

In these ways,we can save not only huge amounts of water but also ourselves!

Water is very important in our life. We drink it every day and use it to cook and wash things. We can not live without water. But how can we save water? There are several ways to save water. Firstly, take shorter showers and don’t leave the tap running when we don’t need to use water. Secondly, Try to reuse water . It’s the most important way for us to save water. At last, We should not pollute water so that we willl have fresh water for years and years. If we do not save water, the last drop of water will be a teardrop. To protect water is to protect our life.

As a saying goes, “Attitude is everything.” It means our attitude will decide whether we will succeed or not in the future. If we take a positive attitude and keep on trying , we will achieve our goals in the end.

I can’t agree more with this view. At one time I was not good at English, which made me very depressed. Then I realized that I had to do well in English to go to my favorite university. I talked with my teacher about my problem, who offered some valuable advice to me. With my teacher’s help, I improved my English gradually.

My story shows that if we have a good attitude and keep on trying, we will be able to overcome difficulty and move on. It is our attitude that plays a key role in our life. 【相关阅读：学习英语的重要性英语作文】

[态度的重要性英语作文

在一个发展迅速的国家，资源是不可缺少的，而有一些贪心的人，却滥用资源，导致排泄物多，又将工业水排入河流，可他们又曾知道这对人们，对水源，又造成了多大的伤害。

可能大家会说，中国是一个地大物博的国家，这些资源还有很多，数不尽数呢。据统计，人们如果还照现在的速度开发资源，中国的资源40年后将一无所有。到那时你们还会快乐吗?人们的贪心就是毁灭中国的罪魁祸首。

我们应该从现在开始，从生活中的一点一滴开始。让我们改变你们，让中国改变世界。想一想四十年后中国的资源别采光，人们没有生活来源，移居国外，但国外生活水平有天太高，连自己都养不活，凭什么养活家人，到那时家破人亡，妻离子散。难道变成这样你们就幸福，开心吗?再想想没有被采光资源的四十年后，一家人走在幽静的小路上，说说话谈谈心，是一件多么惬意，令人向往的事呀!

是呀，在这个世界上我们的家与国家才是最幸福的家园，谁也不希望自己的家园，被自己亲手毁掉。我身为一个中国人真是为你们感到惭愧和耻辱，难道你们不为这种行为感到脸红吗?地球是我们人类赖以生存唯一的家园，我们应该好好爱护我们的地球妈妈，而不是去个人利益的字眼去敷衍它，伤害它。他总是无私的，默默地为人类服务，哺育着每一个生物。地球在叹息，大自然在呼唤：请人们节约资源。

就让我们一起来保护、节约资源，让自己的下一代平安的生存繁衍吧!

水，是地球上最大的资源，也是地球的生命之源。没有了水，地球上的生物都将无法生存，而我们也不会拥有如此繁大的家园。虽然我认为地球可以被称为水球，但看似源源不断的水流中，真正能被人类利用的淡水却少得可怜。

在生活中，我们是离不开水的。每天，我们洗漱需要水，饮食也需要水，水与我们的生活是很密切的。生活：离不开水。

或许有人认为这句话有些危言耸听，但一个个鲜活的事例却给水加上了充分的注脚。这是一个真实的故事：星期六的早上，我家收到一张紧急通知，里面说：“早上8：00到晚上10点停水。妈妈马上把爸爸叫起床，拼命地拿盆子装水，就在这时候突然停水了，妈妈垂头丧气地说：就这么点水哪里够我们一家六口人用!”我大吃一惊的说：“这都已经13盆水了，难道还不够吗?”妈妈心平气和的解释道：“光是洗衣服我就要用大约9盆水。洗漱，饮食也要用2盆水，还有1盆水我要用来浇花和给你的弟弟冲奶粉，所以我们一天其它要用水的地方就只能在1盆水的范围之内了!好不容易一个上午过去了，家里的水也快用完，只剩下最后一半了，我想这下完了，我家得变成用水困难户了!两个小时就过去了，我家的水没有了。我们还是等到10点钟才洗澡的。

有人说“浪费一滴水，无所谓，我们不缺这一点水，水龙头一开，水就哗哗流出来了，可是你们别忘了一句话：“地球上最后一滴水，那就是人类的眼泪。”人类生活是离不开水的，国家为了合理的利用水资源，花费了大量的时间、精力、还有财力。那么，我们大家也要为合理利用水资源做出自己的一份贡献，节约每一滴本不该浪费的水吧。据我所知：我国是一个干旱缺水严重的国家。我国的淡水资源总量为28000亿立方米，但是，我国的人均水资源总量仅仅只有2300立方米，为世界平均水平的四分之一，是全球人均水资源最贫乏的国家之一。然而，中国有十三亿人口，是世界上用水量最多的国家。

人类不爱惜水资源，不保护生态平衡，终究还是尝到了自己种下的苦果。如今，很多人天天喝着受污染的水，咀嚼着受污染的粮食。人们在享受现代的污水，而却不知道，你们说：“可不可悲?”

所以我呼吁全国人民：请节约用水吧!这也算为我们的后代造福!

生命，对于我们每一个人来说都是多么的珍贵，因为生命……

生命，对于我们每一个人来说都是多么的珍贵，因为生命只有一次，

它精彩而又短暂。除了横遭不幸的危害之外，还有一个更可怕的索命鬼，那就是-----资源枯竭!

我们人类生存所需要的水资源、森林资源、生物资源和大气资源。本来是可以不断再生、长期给人类作贡献的。可是，却由于人类任意地毁坏资源，于是人类的生命资源就这样一步步毁于自己的手中。这是一种耻辱，全人类的耻辱!生命资源的枯竭，也会让人类的灿烂生活毁于一旦!如果自己让自己走向生命的尽头，这难道不是一种耻辱吗？地球为了我们，付出了多少？这也许没有人知道，但是，这个付出一定不会少的。地球为了我们快乐的生活，几乎付出了一切。但是，我们又是怎样回报我们的这位地球母亲呢？我们为了生活便利，污染了地球。为了造纸，大量砍伐树木；为了便利，使用汽车；为了舒适，使用空调??????这难道就是我们的回报吗？

我想，我们应该，不，是必须要保护地球而不是污染地球。可是，我们要怎样做呢？其实很简单：把普通灯换成节能灯；电脑不用时，应该关机而不是待机；少用纸张，废物利用，

少吃快餐，少用塑料制品??????在这些我们看来小事，可是，这些却可以让地球母亲不再哭泣。

我想，保护母亲是每个儿女的天性，但是，又有没有想过我们共同的母亲-----地球呢？

地球母亲是最伟大的，她把所有的一切几乎都给了我们。但是，我们却不像她的儿女，把她给的资源任意浪费，但是，这些大多是不可再生的。可是，我们却仍是不顾后果的毁坏，到最后，最惨的还是我们自己。

我们生活在地球母亲温暖的怀抱里，这是我们共同的、唯一的家园，难道我们不应该珍惜和爱护吗？为了子孙后代，为了地球母亲，同时也为了我们自己，醒悟吧!让我们携起手来，为创建一个美好的，精彩的，充实的未来而共同努力和奋斗吧!

我相信，只要我们共同努力，就一定会迎来最美好的未来的!

绿色，是生命之本色，正在人类有意无意的毁坏中一天一天的减少消失，取而带之的那是污染，是垃圾。我们的母亲--地球!她原本因是风华正茂，但她，却老了，病了，受伤了：人类们，醒悟吧!让我们来保护我们的母亲吧，让她重返年轻吧!

那我们因该怎样保护环境呢?首先，我们必须树立保护意识，树立人们文明风尚，杜绝出现乱扔乱吐的现象，这是其次之一，那其次之二是什么呢?是垃圾。说起垃圾，那我们注意的方面就更多的了。1、我们套注意垃圾的卫生。垃圾，我们必须使用一只垃圾袋包好，保持卫生环境。2、垃圾要分类。在分类的过程中，我们应该把废纸。塑料。废瓶罐等可以再生的资源进行回收，把不可以回收的放进垃圾捅，但绝不允许把废旧电池乱扔，，必须把电池送入回收站，让回收站的人员去处理，第三少用或不用塑料袋，一次性饭盒这些白色污染，这些方面都是介绍怎样保护环境的，下面就让让我来介绍怎样来节约资源吧!1、节约用水，在使用水龙头的过程中，我们要关紧水龙头不让任何一滴水跑掉。有人会想，不就是一滴水吗?有什么可以值得大惊小怪的。可你们有没有想过，我国这一年淡水急剧减少，再不珍惜，最后一滴就可能是你的眼泪了!所以请大家务必要珍惜好这一滴水呀!2、珍惜每一粒米。我想大家都听过谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦这句诗吧!一粒米，一滴汗，可有些小孩子还养成了只吃菜，不吃饭的坏习惯，这样不仅浪费粮食，还对身体有害，着不是得不尝失吗?所以，你们要尽快改正这个坏毛病。

此外我们要开展并参加市，镇的一些环保活动，自觉向群众宣传一些环报知识，还可利用一些废弃物进行制作各种小制作。此外，还可以在3月12日开展植树活动，继续给家园增添绿色。

人们啊!只有让绿色恢复原本的美丽，才可以让我们的母亲代代繁衍，经久不衰。让我们共同去创造绿色和谐的快乐天地吧!

People always attach the importance to the promise, they hate people who break their promise. I remember once a time, my friend asked me to go to see the movie with her, I said yes without hesitation. But on that day, I forgot about the date, I just woke up late and then played computer games in my bedroom.

My friends called me, she asked why did I disappear, I said I was sleeping at home, she became very angry, until then did I think about our date. I felt so sorry, I break my promise for the first time, I realize I did the very bad thing.

Even though I apologized for many times, my friend was still angry with me. I learn the lesson, promise is very important, we must keep it, other people will see through our personality to decide what kind of person we are.

As we know， water is very important to man， we cant live without water。 The amount of water which is suitable to drink is less and less。 But some people dont care about it。 They waste a lot of water in their daily life。 Even worse， they pour dirty water into rivers。 They throw rubbish into rivers， too。 Many rivers and lakes are seriously polluted。 Something must be done to stop the pollution。 And I think its a great shame to waste while millions are in great need of water。 I think what we can do is that we have to save every drop of water as possible as we can。 For example， we must turn off the tap immediately after we use it。 We can use a basin to wash our hands and faces。 Its also a good idea to encourage my friends and family members to join me！ Only in this way can we live happily。 If we dont save water， the last drop of water will be a tear—drop of us。 I believe if everyone makes a little effort， we can make a big difference。

There is an English says: we never know what will happen in the future, well, people may not know the future is what appearance, what will happen in the future, the past cannot be changed, and the future is at any time may be rewritten.

I am not a prophet, but I can speculate on a number of situations in Chinas future according to the current situation in China.

Todays Chinese society, in the field of architecture is a bit messy, what "bridge crispy" crispy "floor", and with their similar events one after another, some real estate developers to quickly completed, drive time limit for a project, to sell the house as soon as possible, regardless of the life safety of the housing residents, grab something to "scraps left slag" was completed. As a result one by one "jerry-built projects" appeared in front of the world, this is not simply the construction sector is perfunctory, including land supervision bureau of the responsibility, he "tofu", and you are responsible for censorship, but look not to come out. How can this attitude let people rest assured to buy a house?

Land evictions and after compensation, and is one of the Chinese social problems, people live in a good house, all of a sudden, I do not know what reason, say demolition demolition, put aside who can accept, some people because of dissatisfaction with the compensation, petition protesting, this had to say its a tragedy, the tragedy of the Chinese society. One of city middle school teacher, because of dissatisfaction with forced evictions, resolute dont move, but under the guidance director, the headmaster a barrage of "met" can be the teacher or not to move, the results after the guidance director "met", under the pile of a malicious words: "if you dont move, you dont do!" You said he was a guidance director, no education, instead of what land housing demolition, among them, there is a problem -- -- -- -- -- - after the house dismantlement, nature will build a new house, the property developers are eager to demolition, is rushing to sell a house, now, around the house prices, 1 vigorously. Many people think: alas, house prices 1 vigorously soared upwards, return not equal to taking advantage of low price is to buy a house now, then, holding the psychological, even college students as a mortgage slave, alas, are prices provoked trouble ah! If the house hadnt collapsed, I would have guessed that the children would have had one more trouble - the house.

Recently, the severe drought in yunnan, the national peoples all lend a helping hand, in a timely manner "drought relief", and at the same time, some county in the streets of the water pipe burst, splash, and the passing pedestrians is blind, indifference, the relevant departments or. So let the waste of water resources, the drought in yunnan province can also completely is natural disaster? Isnt it perfunctory? Authorities dont prevent the happening of the drought in advance, but only in vigorously disaster relief and post-disaster China was originally a scarcity of countries, Chinas domestic water price and low, waste of water resource of penalties is not strong, caused many people to think like this, I have plenty of money, I want to how to use water is how to do, Im afraid according to the development of the situation, as a public welfare advertisement, said: the last drop of water in the world, is the humans tear.

Ill call you, save every drop of water, per kilowatt-hour, cherish water resources, improve the environmental protection consciousness, dont think this is stingy, this is to save, is a reflection of the quality. Dont look down on a drop of water, electricity, once if everyone can save a drop of water, electricity, once 1.3 billion people in China, is not a small number, as long as we can to do seriously, this believe that tomorrow will be better.

There is also a problem in Chinese society, which is the problem that is most worrying for every student in the seat, and for your parents, education.

Speaking of Chinas education, its historical origin is very long. Institution from the western han dynasty, it has too, for the nobles children learn, and then through the dynasties, is pay attention to education, and it is up and down five thousand years of splendid civilization in China, but have yet to develop a Nobel prize-winning level of talent, that where the problem is that? There are many reasons, first of all, the social competition is too fierce. Many children are under high pressure from an early age, and there is no happiness, no golden childhood, which kills the childrens interest. Followed by the problem of education system, schools and the education sector hero with fractional theory, cause the student schoolwork burden overweight, the serious influence students physical and mental health development, again is the idea of parents, parents are you interested in, whether children will learn not to learn, to give the child to the class, the cram school, what the piano, drawing, dancing, let the children learn day and night, just to let the child to become a special immortal, try to ask in such cases, in the college entrance examination can add a few minutes? How good it is for your childs healthy growth.

I sincerely hope that our great motherland will be stronger and more beautiful, so that every Chinese can proudly say, "I am Chinese!" Its not America, not Russia, not Britain, not France, but our great China!

I hope that my future is not a dream.

[英语作文：怎样建立节约社会

We are paying more attention on many environmental problems we made before, one of them is the water emergence. Long time ago, we never noticed that we are in a situation that the water on the earth is less than before, and the consequence is continuing.

Until recently, we have started to acknowledge that we should make the bigger efforts to save water. Therefore, so save water from every single person is important. That is why we should save water at home. If every one of us saves water at home, then the water saved together would be a huge amout. And I have some suggestions following: we could cycle the water we just used them to wash clothes to water the plants or to rush the toilet; when we wash our hands, we could turn the tap off for the moment we put soap on our hands etc.

So if we want to save water sincerely, we could save it at home .

资源,并不是取之不尽,用之不竭,有的可以靠劳动,再次创造出来,而有的,却再也无法挽回.地球,也不是可以随意破坏的.在这个21世纪,在这个科技腾飞的世纪,工厂、汽车、……成了污染地球的“恶魔.”

随着人类的发明,生活越来越好了,但无限制的砍伐树木,使大地失去了天然的保护层,热带雨林面积正在迅速地缩小,据估计,正以正以每年11万平方公里的速度在减少.原本一条条清澈见底的小河已经变得乌黑,有些还长满了绿草,以致鱼、虾呼吸不到新鲜空气,全部漂浮在水面上.人类为了自己的生活,开设了成千上万的电场和工厂,污水被排入到河道中,河成了废河;废气直入云天,空气受到污染,变得浑浊;蓝天再也谈不上“湛蓝”,以被废气熏得发黑;从汽车的排气管中排出的气,在四周分散开来,空气全被污染了.

地球上的垃圾更是堆积如山.不仅如此,人类也在不断浪费资源,把用过的“资源”随手仍掉,成了垃圾,不但浪费了资源,而且污染了环境.如今,地球表面的绿色越来越少,多数以被黄色占领,主要原因是人类无休止地砍伐导致树木大量减少,沙漠化增加.

我们现在必须节约资源,让以前失去的“绿色”尽快恢复,不再浪费水资源,让地球不再受到伤害.

节约资源,保护地球,就等于保护了我们的家园,否则,空气就会得浑浊,最后的一滴水必将是人类的眼泪!

[节约资源,保护地球作文600字

除了政府行为外，每个自然人也有责任保护环境，维护好我们的生存条件。以下是小编给大家整理的保护环境作文的内容，欢迎大家查看。

保护环境即是保护自类自己”中，提及政府实施大工程时须考虑对环境的影响，也提及为了保护环境，政府颂行了一些政策与法规等。除了政府行为外，每个自然人也有责任保护环境，维护好我们的生存条件。除了认真执行政府的各项环保法规外，我们每个人都应怀有环保意识，并贯彻到工作与生活之中，才能真正保护好环境。因此，我们要认识并切实做到：保护环境从我做起!

事实上，我们在日常工作与生活中的行为，都与环保有关。因此，有必要共建节约型社会。大家对于“共建和谐社会”的说法已是耳熟能详，也确认其重要性了。然而，“共建节约型社会”似应提到更高的地位，因为这直接关系到爱惜我们的家园——地球!以下是笔者的两点具体意见：

一，节约资源具极重要的意义

这里说的节约，指的是要节约各种资源，其中含有两重意义：

1， 物尽其用而不浪费，尽可能为子孙后代多留些资源。我们知道，地球上所有的资源，如淡水、木材、能源(煤、石油、天燃气等各种矿物燃料)、矿藏(铁、铜、铝等各种金属)……，数量均是有限的，并非用之不尽取之不竭。节约使用它们的必要性就不言而喻了。

2， 节约资源有利于环保。下面分别以淡水、木材、能源为例进行说明：

1) 淡水

除却沙漠与干旱地带，地球别的地方似乎并不缺淡水，江河湖泊中都是水，还有大量地下水。农村的人们就近用水而无需花钱，即使是城市中市民用的自来水，其价格也十分低廉。故而人们历来就不重视节约用水。然而随着人口的增多，淡水的消耗自然也就随之增多，情况严重时导致水荒。首都北京就是如此，多年来已成为缺水城，人们的生活用水都感到紧缺，以至于有不少专家提出了迁都建议与设想。

而由于工业用水的剧增，以至地面水不敷使用，不得不大量地开采地下水。专家指出：“过度抽取地下水与城市不合理建设，是当前产生地面沉降最主要的原因。地面沉降会引发内涝加重、地表水环境恶化、地裂缝等危害。地面沉降的发生具有缓变性、不易察觉性特点，防治也具有一定的难度。”资料表明，全国已有70座城市的地面悄然下沉，其中有上海、天津、太原、西安等大城市。城市每沉降1毫米，损失高达千万元。以上海为例，据资料介绍，40多年来的地面沉降，造成的经济损失已达千亿元!

众所周知，木材由砍伐森林而得。现在某些偏远或落后地区仍以木材作为燃料，而制作家具、造纸等，均需耗费巨额木材，于是人们不停地砍伐森林。十年树木，树木的生长远远赶不上被砍伐的速度。地球上大片森林接连被毁，致使生态环境恶化、气候变化、水土流失等严重后果凸现。须知，作为“地球之肺”的森林，与海洋、湿地被并称为“地球三大生态系统”，保护森林的极端重要还须赘言吗?!

3) 能源

迄今为止，煤、石油、天然气等矿物燃料，目前是人类消耗的主要能源，燃烧它们必然产生大量的二氧化碳、二氧化琉等有害气体。大量二氧化碳在大气层中形成的二氧化碳层，可把照射到地面上的太阳的热能锁起来，不让其流失，形成温室效应。这就导致全球气候变暖，冰川融化，海平面升高，其后果显而易见!因而引起世界各国的重视，旨在限制二氧化碳过量排放的《京都议定书》已经生效，希望通过国际合作遏止温室效应。《京都议定书》规定，到2010年，所有发达国家二氧化碳等6种温室气体的排放量，要比1990年减少5。2%。并具体规定了各缔约国的排放缩减量。

世界各国均重视节约能源，并从点滴抓起，除却4月22日是世界熄灯日外，才过去的6月21日是亚洲熄灯日。熄灯日的意义不仅仅限于当天节省电力，更重要的是唤醒和强化人们的节能环保意识!

二，生活中的环保行为

1， 随手关灯，做到人离灯灭。将暂时不用的电器，不看的电视机等及时关闭其电源。使用空调时，将温度调至适当，夏天不过低，冬天不过高，即可;

2， 存贮洗衣水、洗脸水等较净的生活用水，用于冲洗马桶;

3， 拒绝使用一次性物品，如筷子、面巾纸等，提倡恢复使用可消毒的筷子，使用手绢等;

4， 拒绝购买与食用受保护的野生动物，以及对人类直接有益的动物，如青蛙等;

5， 在饭店用餐时，按需点菜，正好用光是为佳。若有剩余，可打包带回家煮后再食用。特别是用自助餐时，一定要按己量取用，不可多取;

6， 不随地吐痰，不随意抛弃垃圾，保持环境卫生，防止疾病流传;

7， 按类分装家庭垃圾，分别投入相应的垃圾箱以利回收利用;

8， 不购买不燃放爆竹。

As a correspondent of the Qingdao Morning News, I visited Dr. James Gilman, the President of the International Committee for Marco Polo Studies in England. In this picture, this is James, and this is me and we are looking at a dragon’s tooth. This is a true story.

65 years ago, James lived in Qingdao. Then he was only 5 years old. He often visited the Aquarium and was fascinated by a creature on display there, which he thought was a dragon. He was afraid of its sharp teeth and wanted one to keep as a treasure.

In the late 1930s, when the Japanese occupied Qingdao, his family had to leave. On his last day in Qingdao, he ran to the Aquarium and pulled out one of the teeth from the dragon’s mouth.

He kept the tooth for the next 65 years, but the feeling of guilt at having stolen it was there in the background all through his life. It was always on his conscience, and the feeling intensified as he became older. Finally he decided to put right his childish error. In 2002, he visited Qingdao and returned it to the Aquarium with his sincere apologies. He received a warm welcome.

When James visited Qingdao, I accompanied him all the time and reported on his visit. I was deeply touched by his honesty. It has taught me a lot. I think to err is human. The important thing is to have the courage to admit and correct one’s error.

Honesty is a vital quality of human behaviour. So we should try to keep an honest mind in everything we say and do. I would like to say to all of my friends: Let’s be honest people of good moral character.

你们计算过吗?如果我们每天节约一杯水，那么十个人一天可以节约一大桶水，全市一天可以节约几十吨水，全国一年又可以节约多少水呢?

其实，节约资源就等于保护我们的家园，就是为我们的子孙后代保留一比金钱卖不来的财富。不仅是水资源，一些森林资源，生物资源等都在渐渐减少，有些人正努力、拼命地保护这些资源，却有些人正毫无保留地挥霍这批大自然赐予我们的财富。有人会问：”为什么要保护、节约资源?“因为我们只有一个地球，它不是万能的，它给予人类的只有这么多，不会再增加，需要通过我们的能力，使这些资源继续为我们做贡献。

那么，如何节约资源呢?其实很简单，只要从我们身边的小事做起：洗手池里的水龙头流个不停，把它拧紧：少用手巾纸，多用手帕：对于滥砍滥伐的现象，我们给予积极的打击，并举报：不捕杀野生动物，一只小麻雀，一只小青蛙都是一个生命……

同学们，如果当你们看见裸露的土地越来越多，会心痛，如果当你们目睹可爱的小动物在猎人的枪口倒下，会惋惜，那么就加入我们的行列吧，和我一起来保护我们的地球，保护我们共同的、唯一的家园!

谢谢。

Mayor Bloomberg has been the mayor of New York City for nearly nine years, but for ten years he has been wearing the same shoes. This is really rare to be seen on a billionaire.

“The mayor owns two pairs of work shoes,” said the spokesman. “One day he’ll wear one, the next the other. When they got worn down, he has them repaired. He could buy any shoes he wanted, but he says since they are comfortable, and they work, there’s no need for a new pair.” According to the spokesman, the mayor saves in his footwear and he also keeps it up in his personal as well as governmental finance. “When he buys a cup of coffee, he chooses the smallest size. He buys only what he needs.”

Such is the mayor of New York City, who cares little about his shoes, avoids wasting money and focuses his attention on his work and his people in the city.

But what about our fellow students nowadays? Some wear super expensive clothes and shoes; besides, they buy as many as possible, far more than two pairs. They always want the latest, the newest and throw the old ones away though they haven’t worn them for many times.

The author introduces to us the mayor of New York City, a man who is rich but provident. The author also points out nowadays some students have the habit of wasting things.

When reading the passage, I am deeply moved by the mayor. Rich as he is, he has the virtue of saving. He spends money only on what he needs and never wastes money on what is of no use. I think this is really admirable.

The mayor reminds me of the great political leader of China, Chairman Mao. As the chairman of China, Mao led a very thrifty life. He used to wear old clothes at home. When his clothes were worn out, he would have them repaired and continued to wear them. He always told others that saving was a good virtue of Chinese people.

Thinking about the two great leaders, I feel deeply ashamed. As a young student who still has to depend on my parents, I have been leading too comfortable a life. I buy whatever I like though I don’t really need them. Besides, I like new things; when things get “old”, I tend to begin to dislike them and stop using them. Now that I realize that this is wrong, I’m determined that I shall follow the examples of the two great leaders and start to get rid of the bad habits.
