The Earth is getting warmer because of the activities of people. We cut down and burn 61 and send gases into the air with our cars and factories. Can we do anything about it? Sure. We may not be leaders or scientists but we can play our part in 62 the planet. Here are two ideas.

Bike, don’t ride to school

Do you go to school by bus or by bike? If you bike, you are doing 63 for the Earth. Buses, cars, trains and planes produce a lot of carbon dioxide（二氧化碳）. If you live near to your school, 64 not bike there on warm spring mornings? Or, you can simply walk to school to save energy.

Wash the green way

Do you help your mom and dad wash clothes? Then wash them in an energy-saving way. A recent study by Cambridge University found 65 60 percent of the energy used on a piece of clothing is 66 in washing and drying it. Over its lifetime, a T-shirt can send up to 4 kilograms of carbon dioxide into the air.

67 you wash your own clothes, wash them in cold or warm water to save energy, but not hot water. Wash your clothes when 68 fill up the machine. Use the most energy-saving machine you can find. Some new ones use as 69 as one-fourth of the energy of older machines. When they’re clean, dry 70clothes the natural way, by hanging them on a line rather than putting them in a dryer. In all, you can cut the carbon dioxide used in washing by 90 percent.

Apple has entered the textbook market. The tech giant（科技巨头） introduced iBooks textbooks a couple of weeks ago when it announced its iBooks 2 platform.（平台）

They are digital books in a variety of subjects taking in science, maths, history and geography.

Apple developed its iPad-based textbooks in conjunction（连接）with major textbook publishers. The company offers a collection of textbooks for high school students.

Apple claims it offers a “new textbook experience” and suggests its interactive iBooks textbooks are “the next chapter in learning”.

It sounds like good news for pupils and students. Think of it. No more carrying heavy backpacks full of textbooks. Every textbook you require can be stored on your iPad. No more having to buy expensive textbooks which you will only use for a year or two and then sell or give away.

Of course there’s a catch. You need to own an iPad and as you know, it is not cheap. You also need to buy digital textbooks, mostly priced each at $14.99 (94.74 yuan) or less.
