Dear Mr. Li,
There is always many noise in the school dining hall at mealtimes, when is annoying. To create a pleasant environment, I suggest to putting on some music at mealtimes.
After busy classes, we really need some time to get relaxing. As for the types of music, I think either classical music and popular music is OK. However, the music that is too noise should be avoided in order to disturb the diners.
Students who are having their meal in the dinning hall are requiring not to speak loudly. I hope you can accept my suggestion so that we can have the pleasant mealtime.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Hong

What is ecofashion? Eco-fashion is about making clothes that take into account the environment, the health of consumers and the working conditions of people in the fashion industry.
1. Firstly, the production of textiles(纺织品)pollutes the environment heavily. Cottonplanting uses pesticides(杀虫剂);sheepfarming and woolcleaning contribute to global warming;Secondly, every stage of clothing production has a significant effect on the environment. They all use a great deal of energy, and some also involve chemicals which evidently do harm to the surroundings.2.Thirdly, growing consumption levels and our shopping habits further worsen the bad effects. We are now so quick to throw away clothes that have been worn only a couple of times.
3.To a large degree, it is the fashion producers that really have the power and the responsibility to shape our future. There are numerous ways in which these producers can reduce their ecological footprint, from switching to green energy and reducing energy use, through selecting sustainable (可持续的)materials and choosing local suppliers, to recycle and minimize waste. 4.
There is some concern that eco-friendly fashions are just a trend that we will eventually grow tired of but in fact, more and more people are concerning about this and we can make sure that doesn’t happen.5.
A. Then, how to solve the problems?
B. They relate directly to our personal health.
C. Because choosing ecofashion can also contribute to our personal health, though it is mostly done by way of keeping the health of the planet.
D. In addition to this, there is a lot of waste produced in the process, especially in the form of polluted water.
E. The fashion industry has developed quickly.
F. On the other hand, as consumers we can all make contributions by selecting environmentally friendly clothing and reducing clothing consumption.
G. A closer look at the fashion industry points out many problems.

Businesses are witnessing a difficult time, which has in turn produced influence on consumers’ desire to go green. However, shoppers are still laying stress on environmental concerns.
Two thirds of customers say that environmental considerations inform their purchases to the same degree as they did a year ago, while more than a quarter say that they are now even better aware of the environmental effect on what they buy.
This may help to influence how shops store goods on their shelves. And the companies should still make efforts to become more environmentally friendly. Two out of three people think it is important to buy from environmentally responsible companies, with about one in seven saying that they had even decided to take their custom elsewhere if they felt a company’s environmental reputation was not good enough.
Harry Morrison, chief executive(主管)of the Carbon Trust, sympathizes:“I understand this situation where survival is very important now. But from environmental considerations, the clock is ticking—we don’t have much time. In addition, cutting carbon has an immediate effect as costs drop and a medium-term benefit for the brand.”
Larger companies have an extra motivation to look at reducing their carbon footprint, as new rules next year will require businesses to buy carbon allowances to make up for their emissions(排放). Those that have taken early action will have a head start. More than two thirds of consumers are not clear about which companies are environmentally responsible. This suggests that firms that are able to relay clearly their message to the public will be in a pole position to attract shoppers.
The Carbon Trust believes that it can help by informing customers about the good work companies are doing.“When companies are granted(授予)the standard, they can use a logo(标识)in all their marketing which makes it clear that they are working towards cutting emissions,”Mr. Morrison said.

A. Businesses are finding ways to send their message to the shoppers.
B. Companies will soon get information about cutting carbon emissions.
C. Firms are making efforts to encourage customers to keep goods at home.
D. Firms are urged to cut carbon emissions by shoppers’ environmental awareness.

A. affect B. change C. disturb D. reject
3.According to Harry Morrison, businesses .
A. will benefit from cutting carbon emissions
B. should buy carbon allowances for shoppers
