问题      “地球一小时”活动于去年在澳大利亚最大的城市悉尼(Sydney)首次举行。当时全市约有220万居民集体熄灯,没有灯光的悉尼歌剧院沐浴在月光里,海湾大桥(Harbour Bridge)也熄灯响应。
    活动组织者安迪-里德利说,悉尼的“熄灯一小时”活动引起了世界各国的极大兴趣。目前,亚太、北美、欧洲以及中东地区的23个城市已报名参加今年的活动。最新响应的八个城市包括:美国的亚特兰大、旧金山和菲尼克斯、泰国首都曼谷、加拿大的渥太华、温哥华和蒙特利尔,以及爱尔兰的都柏林。
    此外,参与该活动的城市还包括:澳大利亚的悉尼、珀斯、墨尔本、堪培拉、布里斯班、阿德莱德,丹麦的哥本哈根、阿胡斯、奥尔堡和欧登塞,菲律宾首都马尼拉,斐济最大的城市苏瓦,新西兰的基督城;芝加哥:特拉维夫以及多伦多。
    由“世界自然基金会”发起的“地球一小时”活动计划于当地时间3月29日晚八点准时开始。他表示,希望这一理念能越过国界,影响更多的国家。

选项

答案     The "Earth Hour" initiative started in Australia’s biggest city Sydney last year when an estimated 2. 2 million people flicked the switch—leaving the Sydney Opera House bathed in moonlight and the Harbour Bridge blacked out.
    Organizer Andy Ridley said Sydney’s 60-minutes of darkness generated huge interest around the world and 23 other cities from the Asia Pacific, North America, Europe and the Middle East had now signed up to be part of the event. The eight latest cities to join " Earth Hour" are Atlanta, San Francisco and Phoenix in the US; Thailand’s capital Bangkok; Ottawa, Vancouver and Montreal in Canada and Dublin in Ireland.
    They join Australian cities Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane, Adelaide; Denmark’s Copenhagen, Aarhus, Aalborg and Odense; the Philippine capital Manila, Fiji’s biggest city Suva, Christchurch in New Zealand; Chicago; Tel Aviv and Toronto.
    Ridley said he expected the "Earth Hour" concept, which is managed by the conservation group WWF, to extend beyond the borders of these countries on the scheduled start time of 8:00 pm local time on Saturday March 29.
