Task 2. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer for each of the questions.
Saving energy does not have to be expensive or time-consuming. But what can you do to save energy? There is plenty that you can do to help the process of energy conservation. You can save energy by following these simple rules: making sure that the kettle does not contain more water than needed; always washing a full load in the washing machine rather than a half load; turning down your central heating by 1° C - this could cut your heating bill by 10%; being sure that hot water taps are not left running and replacing washers if your taps drip; turning off any lights and your computer at work if you are not using them; changing to energy-saving light bulbs which use around a quarter of the electricity of standard bulbs and will last eight times longer, closing your curtains at dusk to keep the warm air from escaping through the windows, and switching off electrical appliances when they are not in use.
