2015考研：考研英语写作话题素材（2）
吸引阅卷老师的可能就是整篇作文中的点睛之笔，整篇作文都是平平淡淡的话，很可能你的英语就被戳上一般般的章。为使2015考研生能在考研英语作文中取得更高的分数，太奇小编整理了一些作文素材分享，希望大家都能用的到哦!1.Unplug
拔下插头更节电
Did you know your appliances consume electricity even when shut down? Five to 10 per cent of the energy used in your home is siphoned for standby power. Unplug TVs, chargers, computers, coffee makers and stereos, or use power bars with built-in timers to turn off electronics you don’t mind being reset。
你知道吗，电器即使在关闭状态也会耗电，你家里用掉的能源中有5%~10%是电器在待机状态下消耗掉的。拔下电视机、充电器、电脑、咖啡机和音响的插头，有些电子产品你不介意重新设置的话可以使用内置定时器的电源。
2.Vent it Out
清洁地毯学问大
That “new carpet smell” is actually an airborne cocktail of nasty chemicals. Talk to your installer about how to properly vent your home in the first 72 hours after installation and give the carpet a good vacuuming. To be seriously green, consider fire-resistant, biodegradable and non-toxic natural-fibre carpets like wool, sisal, coir and seagrass。
所谓“新地毯的气味”其实是空气里脏的化学物质混合在一起的味道。告诉工人在铺上新地毯的72小时内如何正确地通风并给地毯吸尘。最环保的是选择防火的，生物可降解的，无毒的，天然纤维的材质，如羊毛、剑麻、椰子纤维和海草地毯。
3.Try Carpooling
拼车是个好主意
Your daily car commute contributes to climate change, so get the family walking or biking at least once a week. If self-powered travel isn’t possible, use public transit (it can save a Canadian family a monthly average of $586, according to the David Suzuki Foundation) or consider ride sharing. High-occupancy vehicle lanes help speed up your commute; check online to find carpooling sites that offer rides to your local transit station。
你上下班开车也会导致气候变化，所以和你的家人每周至少步行或骑自行车一次吧。如果不行，也可以使用公共交通(根据大卫铃木基金会的数据，一个加拿大家庭平均每月能够节省586美元)或是考虑拼车。车辆的乘载率提高了，你的通勤时间也可以缩短;你可以上网查找拼车网站，有人能搭你到当地的中转站。
