Over the past twenty years or so, great changes have taken places in our life. Take my family for example. My parents contacted others mainly by sending them letters in the past, but now we call long distance at home. And once my parents listened to the radio for news and other information, but now we watch the news and other programs on TV, surf the Internet, and so on. Another big change is in the housing conditions. When they got married about twenty years ago, my parents lived in a small room crowded with furniture, but now we have moved into a big new three-room apartment. In short, changes in our life in the past twenty years have brought us comfort and convenience.

　　May I have your attention, please? Now I’d like to make a speech here.

　　With the improvement of living standard, there is a lot of waste on campus. For example the students leave the lights on in the daytime, water running after washing and remains of a lot of food after eating on the table. Some of the students even ask their parents for pocket money. So it is high time that we had to deal with the problem. The reasons are as follows:

　　In the first place, the bad habit of being wasteful will have a bad influence on their own character. Secondly, it adds financial burden to their parents. Last but not least, it also exhausts the world's very limited natural resources, water and electricity.

　　But how to reduce the waste? In my opinion, it is everybody's business to fight against waste. On one hand, I should start with myself to save everything. On the other hand, I'd like to remind my friends here to take the lead in reducing the waste.

　　Therefore, I’m sure, with everyone doing his bit, we will change the present situation the better.
