Saving is a good habit not only for an individual but for a company, factory, even the government. As we know, with the increasing population of the world, more and more natural resources and energies are consumed. If people want to have a healthy and good life in the long future, they have to form the habit of saving things.
Actually, for and individual, there are many things worth saving, such as water, food, power, etc. As is known to all, water shortage has been a serious problem in many areas and countries. For example, in the west area of China, many people store rain for cleaning and cooking. Since drinkable water is limited in the world, we should save water as possible as we can in our daily life. For the same reason, we should also save power. We can limit the time of using air conditioners, and set the temperature not too high or too low. Turn off lights when we leave. Use towel instead of facial paper to save paper. Stop using once-and-away chopsticks to save wood. If everyone can form good habit of saving, we can make great contributions to the whole world.
Only by saving can we protect our environment for a better world both for ourselves and for the future generations.

People with disabilities comprise a large part of the population. It is estimated that over 35 million Americans have physical, mental, or other disabilities. About half of these disabilities are “developmental”, i. e. , they occur prior to the individual’s twenty-second birthday, often form genetic conditions, and are severe enough to effect three or more areas of development, such as mobility, communication, employment, etc. Most other disabilities are considered “adventitious”, i.e. , accidental or caused by outside forces.
Prior to the 20th century, only a small percentage of people with disabilities survived for long. Medical treatment for these disabilities was unavailable. Advancements in medicine and social services have created a climate in which people with disabilities can expert to have such basic needs as food, shelter, and medical treatment. Unfortunately, these basic are often not available. Civil liberties such as the right to vote, marry, get an education, and again employment have historically been denied on the basic of disability.
In recent decades, the disability rights movement has been organized to flight against these infringements (侵害) of civil rights. Congress responded by passing major legislation recognizing people with disabilities as protected class under civil rights statutes.
Still today, people with disabilities must fight to live their lives independently. It is estimated that more than half of qualified Americans with disabilities are unemployed, and a majority of those who do work are underemployed. About two-thirds live at or below the official poverty level.
Significant barriers, especially in transportation and public awareness, prevent disabled people from taking part in society. For example, while no longer prohibited by law from marrying, a person with no access to transportation is effectively excluded from community and social activities which might lead to the development of long-term relationships.
It will only be when public attitudes advance as far as laws are that disabled people will be fully able to take to their right place in society.
