第1篇（议论文·社会现象）

Modern society tends to take for granted the resources we exploit in daily life. Many cities institute new policies to hamper wasteful behavior and prompt citizens to form modest consumption habits. Local forums often screen public opinions and parcel out social resources reasonably, so that we can render effective support for low-carbon development.
Some people tag simple lifestyles as “unprogressive”, but such odd judgment fails to see the true value of thrift. When people’s desire for material wealth faints, they can finally weave a balanced life and witness long-term social progress.
