DTE Home Energy Consultation - DTE recently launched its free home energy consultation promotion on Oakland County Moms. It is free to residential customers and provides you with a full home energy usage analysis, as well as free energy saving light bulbs(灯泡).

I decided to schedule my own energy consultation because I am one of those customers who regularly receive letters from DTE that I’m using more energy than my neighbors. I have a majority of our light bulbs switched over to energy saving versions, but thought maybe there was something I was missing.

It was easy to schedule an appointment for a DTE Sales Representative to come to my home and do a walk-through. On the day of our appointment, Anthony from DTE came to our home. He was extremely polite and eager to help.

I explained to Anthony that we’ve been receiving letters from DTE so he immediately took a closer look at everything. He was very knowledgeable and pointed out things I didn’t even think of. Our track lighting in our family room uses Halogen lights. Halogen lights are the most expensive to operate as they use the most energy. He suggested that we unplug our cell phone chargers when not in use because it could run an additional $5 per month

for each charger. Additionally, he noticed that we had fixed energy saving light bulbs downstairs that tied into a dimmer (调光器）switch. He pointed it out as you should never use energy saving light bulbs with a dimmer switch since it is a risk of fire.

Anthony made sure every fitting possible had energy saving light bulbs. He even took down light fittings from the ceiling to replace bulbs. We were left with energy saving light bulbs all throughout the house (except for the dimmer switches), and some great tips for what we could do differently. I can't wait to see the effect on future bills. 21. The author decided to try out DTE energy consultation because she .

A. wanted to get free energy saving light bulbs

A. Using Halogen lights in track lighting.

B. Charging cell phones in the wrong chargers. C. Replacing energy saving light bulbs too often.

D. Connecting energy saving light bulbs with a dimmer switch. 23. Which of the following best describes Anthony in the author’s eyes?

There are some house plants that can cause severe poisoning in pets and so, you need to be very careful while choosing which plants to decorate your house with. That could be a lot of risk just to improve the beauty of your house. Holiday cactus (仙人掌）is a popular house decoration, especially during the holidays, and has been often classified as a safe-but-better-avoid flowering plant.

You can plant holiday cactus in your garden or keep them at home, but you need to be aware of a few details. Dogs that have consumed this cactus have been reported to show signs of poisoning, such as dullness and loss of appetite. But, on the other hand, there are many people who say that their pets have often taken leaves or flowers of this cactus. The pets are still alive and their health is just fine. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has declared the holiday cactus to be non-poisonous to pet animals. So, it is not harmful to your pets.

Ideally, your children should not be eating any sort of plants that are not recommended for a human diet. Although holiday cactus has been regarded as safe for consumption by pets, would you eat your garden plants? The same theory applies to your children. They should not be eating this cactus or any other plants, as chemicals in the plant could lead to an upset stomach and may be a cause of allergy. As a preventive measure, keep all house plants away from the reach of kids who are likely to eat them.

Holiday cactus is not poisonous to pets and children. They are absolutely safe and you can plant them in your house without worrying about its ill effects on the health of your family members, including your pets. But you may be adding fertilizers and other chemicals to keep this house plant healthy and blooming. These are not what your kids and pets should be consuming at all. In small quantities, holiday cactus is not really poisonous.

However, when eaten in large amount, it can prove to be really deadly to their health.

Two new studies have investigated why fewer females study and work in the so-called STEM subjects in the United States. Those subjects are science，technology，engineering and mathematics.

The American Association of University Women (AAUW) examined existing research. Its report “Why So Few?” suggested ways to interest more girls and women in the STEM fields. The researchers found that cultural and environmental factors make a difference. Researcher Christianne Corbett says more boys than girls score very high on math tests in most countries，but Iceland and Thailand are exceptions. “In those countries, more girls than boys actually scored above ninety in math. Further evidence shows that cultural factors and social factors can make a difference in who achieves at the very high levels and if girls are achieving or not.”

The other study was carried out by the Bayer Corporation in the United States. It asked more than one thousand women about their experiences. Seventy-seven percent said not enough women are working in STEM professions today. This is because they were not identified or urged to study those subjects in school. Rebecca Lucore，Bayer USA Executive Director，says its study produced results similar to the AAUW research. “Our recent survey showed there’s still a lot of work to be done. They say their interest in science begins before the age of eleven. So we need programs that really get in front of kids while they're young in primary school.”

Why is it so important for girls and women to be involved in science? Christianne Corbett has one answer. “Increasing diversity in professions leads to better products and science. Expanding and developing this science and engineering workforce is critical to the nation’s economic creativity, productivity and competitiveness.”

Rebecca Lucore says scientific professions need more and better workers. “It’s just about having scientifically literate(有科学素养）citizens. It’s really important no matter what career you go into, you can think critically and creatively，you can work in teams, you can adapt to change and that’s important for everybody.” 28. It can be learned from Paragraph 2 that . A. girls achieve better in maths in Iceland

B. boys score higher than girls on all tests C. girls are more talented in maths in Thailand D. boys are more interested in STEM subjects 29. Fewer females are involved in science because . A. they make less effort than boys

B. they have no access to STEM profession

C. they are affected by cultural and social factors
