The UK Government has announced plans to build eight nuclear power reactors as part of its new energy strategy.
   By 2030，the Government wants 95%of the UK's electricity to come from low-carbon energy sources.Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that is released from the burning of fossil fuels （coal，oil and gas）.It is a big cause of climate change- long-term shifts in weather patterns，including rising temperatures.
   The Government wants to increase renewable energy sources，such as wind turbines and solar panels.The Government hopes that by 2030，50 gigawatts（億瓦特）of energy will come from offshore wind farms（ones that stand in the sea）.That's enough to power all the houses in the UK.There are also plans to build eight new nuclear reactors.Nuclear reactors generate（產(chǎn)生）energy through a process called nuclear fission（裂變），when heavy atoms are split into lighter ones.The Government wants to make the UK's energy cleaner and cheaper，and for the UK to produce its own energy rather than relying on other countries.Russia's invasion of Ukraine has affected the world's gas and oil supply，making power more expensive.
   The UK Prime Minister，Boris Johnson，says the plans will lead to"clean and secure energy made in Britain.Some people have said that these plans don't go far enough and won't help people who are struggling with high energy bills at the moment.
   Labour Party leader Keir Starmer has said that the Government should do more to insulate people's homes.Insulating homes is when material is put inside a house to stop heat from getting out.It means people would need to use less energy to heat their homes.

3．Should We Create More National Parks to Save Endangered Animals？ Don't you find it worrying that more and more species of animals are in real danger of becoming extinct？（1）

And I think the best way to do this is for governments to create more national parks．
   （2）

If this environment is destroyed-for example，when farmers clear a forest for new fields，or trees are cut down to make profits-many animals are unable to survive，and more species are likely to become extinct．

A．To begin with，animals are important to humans．
