Questions {<1>}-{<6>}: Read the following passage and mark the letter A,
B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions
In Western countries, electricity, gas, and water are not luxuries but
necessities. Companies now realize that consumers want products that will not
only work effectively, but also save money.
For most North American households, lighting accounts for 10 percent to
15 percent of the electricity bill. However, this amount can be reduced by
replacing an ordinary 100-watt light bulb with an energy-saving bulb. These bulbs
use a quarter of the electricity of standard bulbs and last eight times longer.
Therefore consumers can save about US$7 to US$21 per bulb.
In Europe, there is a labeling scheme for refrigerators, freezers, washing
machines and tumble dryers. The label tells the consumers how much energy
efficiency each model has, compared with other appliances in the same category.
Ultimately, these innovations will save money as well as conserve the
Earth’s resources.
