Special guests this year include: Elizabeth Harris: movie star and author of Dinosaur Robot Sun-Hee Lee: author of Flower Castle Courtney Bell: author of Happy Land and other bed-time stories Daniel Foster: author of the Chronicle of the Airplanes from 1900s The festival is free and open to public.

ember 30 Subject: DAMO update Dear residents, The winter is around the corner. In an effort to save energy, Devonshire Apartment Management Office(DAMO)has resolved to implement energy-saving measures in our apartment buildings. Over the past three months the DAMO has upgraded electrical wiring systems, replaced traditional lights with energy-efficient lights in the parking garage, and installed solar-screen shades on south-facing windows in every building. The DAMO chief manager James Stevenson reports that these measures have resulted in a 20 percent reduction in our monthly energy use. To help us further reduce the apartments energy consumption, Mr. Stevenson suggests the following guidelines: 1. Set the furnace thermostat at 68 degrees or lower. 3 percent to 5 percent more energy is used for each degree the furnace is set above 68 degrees. 2. Caulk windows, doors and anywhere air leaks in or out. Do not caulk around water heater and furnace exhaust pipes. 3. Clean or replace furnace filters regularly, following manufacturers instructions. 4. Fix defective plumbing or dripping faucets. A single dripping hot water faucet can waste 230 gallons of water a month. That not only increases water bills, but also increases the gas or electric bills for heating the water. Mr. Stevenson will be conferring with every resident over the next two months to explore additional ways of conserving energy. Tenants will be contacted about setting up a time for this meeting.

What is the purpose of the memo?

A．To notify apartment tenants of a power cut

B．To introduce a new apartment manager

C．To discuss energy-saving efforts at the apartment buildings

D．To give some tips for car parking

etting more important for many homes since electricity costs have climbed inexorably higher over the past few years. Here are a few ideas for cutting electricity expenses. 1. Use extra blankets instead of having the heater on at night. Once youre snug under the covers, you dont really need artificial heat unless you live in a state where the temperatures drop below freezing. 2. Wash only full loads in the dishwasher and washing machine. A lot of electricity and water is wasted on small loads. 3. Use power strips to turn off multiple devices. Power strips can include a switch to turn all devices on and off. 4. Replace incandescent light bulbs with florescent light bulb, which has the same brightness and use less energy, without replacing light fixtures. Use the motion sensor to reduce the usage of electricity in non-working areas where the light is not constantly used, such as the storage or closet.
