EARTH HOUR
Earth Hour is an annual event which asks you to switch off all your lights for one hour. The aim is
to involve as many people as possible in positive change for our planet.
What is Earth Hour?
Earth Hour is organised by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and it’s a big event usually at
the end of March every year. In this evening, people 'go dark’ - that is, switch off lights in their homes,
schools and businesses all at the same time for one hour. Earth Hour started in Australia in 2007,
when 2.2 million people in Sydney turned off all unnecessary lights for an hour. Since then, it has
grown into an international event, and many countries around the world have taken part. Famous
buildings that have gone dark for Earth Hour include the Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge, the

Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, the Houses of Parliament and Buckingham Palace in London, the

Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Forbidden City in Beijing and New York’s Empire State Building.

What’s the idea behind Earth Hour?

The idea is to raise awareness of environmental issues and call for action to protect nature, so

that people enjoy healthy, happy and sustainable lives now and in the future. It’s true that switching

off the lights for just one hour saves only a small amount of power. But this is only the beginning. On

one level, joining Earth Hour makes people think about the problem of climate change and what we

can do in everyday life to protect nature.

What does ‘60+’ mean?

The logo of Earth Hour is ‘60+’. The number 60 is for the 60 minutes of Earth Hour, and the plus

invites people to keep on taking action even after Earth Hour is finished. In fact, people who join Earth

Hour say that taking part makes them want to do more for the environment. The climate activist

Greta Thunberg says that ‘Earth Hour is every hour of every day.’

36. When is Earth Hour?

A. March 3rd annually B. at the end of March every year

C. in 2007 D. 60 minutes

37. What do people do for Earth Hour?

Every year several thousand people die in car accidents in Great Britain. And between one and

two hundred thousand people are hurt.

There are rules to make the roads safe, but people do not always obey the rules. They are

careless. If everybody obeys the rules, the road will be much safer. How can we make the roads safer?

Remember this rule. In Great Britain, traffic keeps to the left. Cars, buses and bikes must all keep

to the left side of the road. In most other countries, traffic keeps to the right.

Before crossing the road, stop and look both ways. Look right and left. Then, if you are sure that

the road is clear, it is safe to cross the road. If you see small children or very old people, help them to

cross the road. We must teach our children to cross the road safely. We must always give them a

good example. Small children must not play in the street.
