Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the world's energy
resources are limited. Nobody knows exactly how much fuel is left. However, we also should use them

too late; and nuclear power is the only alternative.
However, many people don't approve of using nuclear power because it is very dangerous. What would

future generations. The most effective thing is that we should use natural resources as economically as
possible.

successful harvests. Thanksgiving is traditionally celebrated with a feast among family and friends. Not
only adults but children take part in the food preparation.
Traditional foods are turkey, gravy, sweet potatoes, cornbread, potatoes, and cranberry sauce. After the
feast people often do some other activities. Some like to go for a walk. Some take naps. Others play
board or card games together.. They volunteer to cook and serve food to homeless people, spend time
with sick people in hospitals or help a needy family.

Nowadays, energy is being run out more and more. We need to save energy because nobody of us can
lives without energy. We have many ways to save energy in our home. One of those ways is using
electricity, water and gas economically, we should turn off the light in room when we go out or in
unnecessary situations, avoid wasting water, shut the kitchen stove when stop cooking. Besides, we
should use the low light bulbs. We also can use public transport more often
Unit 11 TRAVELLING IN THE FUTURE

It is Solar-energy plane. It looks like a normal plane but it has the solar panel on the wings. The
panel will catch the sun shine and create the electricity for the plane. It may be a great invention
helping to create the energy and protect environment.
It is flying car. It’s a kind of driverless car and airplane. It has many benefits. With its automated
system, the car can avoid traffic. It drives at 300 kph. It has SSS, it’s a sky safety system, it will stop
everyone from crashing and it will help them avoid traffic jam. It has four seats, so your family or


friends can join the ride.
It’s a flying motorbike. It looks like a normal motorbike, but it can fly without wings, it will use
electricity transferred from solar energy. It can travel fast and work well in bad weather. I think it will
be very useful and popular in the future.
