What was the highlight *of the May Day? It was Hangzhou Bay Bridge*, which opened on that day.       

It is 36 kilometers long and the world’s longest cross- sea bridge. It begins at Jiaxing, crosses the East China Sea, and end at Cixi, about 70 kilometers from Ningbo. It will reduce* the driving time between Shanghai and Ningbo by about two hours.

A great number of the workers started to build it on November 2003, and ended in June 2007. Now the bridge has become famous. About 40,000 vehicles *can cross the bridge each day at first. This will be added to 100,000 vehicles a day in 2026. During the May Day holiday, many car owners came to the bridge as well as tourists on coaches*. So many people wanted to see the bridge with their own eyes.

As a shortcut *between Zhejiang and Shanghai, the bridge will not only improve traffic but also help economic *development in the Changjiang River Delta.

“People enjoy working in small cities like Cixi but living in big cities like Shanghai,” said a man. “With the help of the bridge, they can leave Shanghai for Cixi in the morning and go back in the afternoon. They only need to drive for about one and a half hours.”

You may have known several kinds of police --- traffic police, fire police and street police. But have you ever heard of energy-saving(節(jié)能) policeman?

A group of 22 energy-saving policemen went to work last week in Beijing. They go around the city to see the use of energy in hotels, office buildings, shopping centers and other public places. One of their aims is to make sure that these places have set their air conditioning(空調) no cooler than 26℃.

They also set up a special phone line so that people can tell them which buildings fail to follow the rule.

“If everyone sets their air conditioning at 26℃, Beijing will save 400 million kilowatthour of electricity in one summer. That’s one-third of all the usages of the city in the season,” said a TV advertisement.

Other Chinese cities, like Wuhan in Hubei Province and Yangzhou in Jiansu Province, are going to follow Beijing’s steps in setting up a similar police team.

As one of the fastest developing countries, China is using a lot of energy. This has a great effect on the country’s environment and limited(有限的) energy.

From 1986 to 2005, the country experienced 20 warm winters continuously(連續(xù)). Numbers show that Chinese cities have to spend billions of yuan solving environmental problems every year.

At the beginning of this month, China made its first action plan to fight pollution. It aims to reduce energy usage by 20% and increase renewable(可更新的) energy up to 10% from 7% by 2010.

To introduce the public to a green life, last week Beijing held a show on energy-saving technology and productions. Environment-friendly machines, such as a vending machine that helps collect used bottles, have attracted lots of attention. “We want to tell people that there are certain ways to protect the environment. Each of us can find effective ways to do it on our daily lives,” said Liu Qianguang, an environmental engineer in Beijing.
