　　(B) It would not be expensive to produce home appliances that are energyefficient.

　　(C) Home-appliance manufacturers now have the technology to produce appliances that are twice as energy-efficient as those currently available.

　　(D) The cost of energy to the consumer world rise with increases in the energy efficiency of home appliances.
