It's not always easy to run an energy-efficient house.But there are some simple things anyone can do.
Go LED with your lighting
There are several benefits to switching to energy-efficient light bulbs.One of them is saving money - though the LED bulbs might cost more than traditional bulbs，the average saving on LED bulbs is ﹩ 75 a year.（1）CC LED bulbs can last years or even decades.
Don't run your air conditioner constantly
As the weather starts to warm，you might be thinking about the right time to turn on your air conditioner.（2）BB Air conditioner units are among the most energy-consuming appliances in your home.Using electrical fans instead of your air conditioner is much more efficient and it's a big money saver，too.
（3）DD
On those days when you treat a large crowd and are low on time，don't beat yourself up if you have to use disposable dishware.This method reduces your water usage and saves energy.And as a bonus，if your city offers roadside recycling，your paper plates may qualify.
Update your insulation（隔熱）
All that work you're doing to save energy in your home could go to waste if it's not properly insulated.If you can't insulate the whole house，pay special attention to the roof：it reduces air flow from outside.By updating your insulation，you're saving money. （4）EE
Take showers instead of baths
A full bathtub requires about 70 gallons of water.（5）GG Showers are quite different - taking a five-minute shower uses only 10 to 25 gallons!
A.Turn off water when not using it.
B.But do you really have to？
C.Plus，you needn't change them frequently.
D.Don't feel guilty about using paper plates.
E.And it's also easier to control your home temperature.
F.You should use your air conditioner smartly.
G.Even if you don't fill it to the top，it still uses much more water.

3．Dear Laura，
Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house． Now， you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening． When I was out a walk， my younger son， Tom， played football before your house． He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily． Even worse， Tom broke one of the window of Mr． Wilson's house． Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings， but promised to have the broken window repair soon． Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more． I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us． They are really nice people．
Yours，
