Subject: My family plans for World Earth Day
Dear Xixi,
Tomorrow is World Earth Day. My family and I will do something to save energy. My mum will drive less and take a bus to work. What's more, she will use cloth bags instead of plastic bags when she goes shopping. My dad will try to save and reuse water. He will take shorter showers and use the bath water to water flowers. We will turn off the lights when leaving the rooms.
Is that all enough? Do you have any good ideas? Look forward to your email.
Best regards,
Monica

【分析】
首先通读短文，明确短文围绕Monica一家为世界地球日制定的节能计划展开。第1题需定位邮件主题，找到与节能相关的选项；第2题结合上下文语境猜测短语词义；第3题从原文提取对应人物的计划，完成表格。
【解析】
1. 第1题：短文明确提到“My family and I will do something to save energy”，说明邮件主题是他们要做的节能相关的事，A选项是保护动物，C选项是每个人都要节能，不符合邮件具体内容，故选B。
2. 第2题：原文提到妈妈“use cloth bags instead of plastic bags”，结合语境可知是用布袋代替塑料袋，故instead of意为“代替”，选A。
3. 第3题：从原文提取对应信息：妈妈的计划是“drive less and take a bus to work, use cloth bags instead of plastic bags”；爸爸的计划是“take shorter showers and use the bath water to water flowers”；全家的计划是“turn off the lights when leaving the rooms”。
