16、t which any development may become a threat or even a disaster for human be ings.As far as I can see, safety is indeed the top priori ty in any form of energy development. There is no doubt that alternative energy, such as solar power and nuclear power, brings us a promising prospect for apply ing c

21、, the reason why people litter is not because they want to do that, but they could not find rubbish bins on the site. If rubbish bins are handily around, I am sure most people would put the trash in the right place. Second, those who litter in the seashore should be fined and they should also be sub
