AI was driving home the other day on a sunny afternoon. I had a smile on my face as I sang along to the songs on the radio. It was such a beautiful day that I felt full of happiness. My good mood ended, however, when the radio station took a news break between songs. Then suddenly I found myself listening to yet another story of a rich famous man who had broken the law. I shook my head as I came to a red traffic light.As I pulled to a stop I noticed four leather-jacketed bikers. They were standing in the middle of the road with two on either side of the light. They looked rough and dangerous, but as I got closer I noticed each one was holding their helmet in their hands. I rolled down my window as one approached my car. "We are the Brother’s of the Wheel", h e said. "We are collecting money for a Christmas Toy Drive for needy children." As I pulled a dollar out of my wallet I looked past his beard and into his eyes. They shined with a goodness and kindness that came right from his soul. I dropped the money in his helmet and waved to the other bikers as I drove off. My good mood had returned. My faith in mankind had been bolstered. And I had to remember again never to judge people by their appearance.Our society often judges books by their covers but God reads what is written in our hearts and souls. Perhaps one day we will all learn to see the world through the same eyes. Perhaps one day we will realize that looks matter little and actions matter much.21. The writer’s good mood ended when _______.A. he heard news between songsB. he had to stop at a red traffic lightC. he heard a rich man broke the lawD. he saw four leather-jacketed bikers22. What werethe four bikers doing at the traffic lights?A. Having a bicycle race in the streetB. Selling helmets to the passers-by.C. Raising money to help kids in needD. Preparing for Christmas holidays.23. What does “bolstered” in the second paragraph probably mean?A. Destroyed.B. Improved.C. Decreased.D. Exploded.24. The writer wants to tell us that we should________.A. have faith in young peopleB. judge others by their actionsC. change our attitude to societyD. manage to help others in needBThe movies just wouldn’t be the same without the warm buttery taste of popcorn. Amazingly, this delicious treat started its life as a corn kernel (玉米粒)—and not from just any corn. Popcorn is a type of sweet corn that was originally grown in Mexico and spread to China, India and elsewhere. It is the only kind of corn that will pop. Today, most of the world’s popcorn is grown in the United States.Every popcorn kernel contains a tiny drop of water,surrounded by soft starch (淀粉). When the popcorn is heated, the water turns into steam. This puts pressure on the surrounding hard kernel, forcing it to explode. The soft starch increases about 40 times in size as the corn kernel turns itself inside out.In the 1500s popcorn was an important food source for the Aztec Indians of central and southern Mexico. But it wasn’t only food. It was also used in ceremonies or in headdresses and necklaces. By the time the Europeans arrived in America, popcorn had spread through most of the American Indians.Some early American settlers ate popcorn with cream and sugar for breakfast. But it wasn’t until the late 1800s that popcorn became popular. The demand for popcorn increased and farmers began farming popcorn. The first mobile popping machine was invented in 1885, and popcorn was sold by street sellers much like hot dogs that are sold today.During the Great Depression of the 1930s, the popcorn business still thrived as people could still afford it. Then in the 1950s television arrived and popcorn consumption decreased. People stayed home and stopped going to the theater. But the link between movies and popcorn had already existed. Soon people began making popcorn at home on the stove and, later,microwave popcorn was introduced.Today the movies have regained popularity and popcorn has once again become the favorite.25. Popcorn was first planted in________.A. ChinaB. AmericaC. IndiaD. Mexico26. Why does the corn kernel pop when heated?A. Because it is covered with soft starch.B. Because the pressure inside is too big.C. Because the starch becomes bigger in size.D. Because there is water inside the kernel.27. We can know from the passage that________.A. popcorn began to be farmed in the late 1800sB. popcorn was only a kind of food in the 1500sC. hot dogs used to be sold by street sellersD. people stopped going to the movies without popcorn28. The underlined word “thrived” in the fifth paragraph probably means“________”.A. started to be popularB. was seriously affectedC. suffered a lotD. developed very wellCStatuses are wonderful human inventions that enable us to get along with one another and to determine where we "fit" in society. In our everyday life whenever we meet people, we always try to judge them in terms of their statuses. For example, we must judge whether the person in the library is a reader or a librarian, whether the telephone caller is a friend or a salesman and so on.Our statuses often vary with the people we meet, and change through life. Most of us can, at very high speed, assume(表现出) the different statuses that various situations require. Much of social communication consists of recognizing and selecting among proper statuses and allowing other people to assume their statuses in relation to us. This means that we fit our actions to those of other people, based on a constant mental process of assessment and understanding. Although some of us find the task more difficult than others, most of us perform it rather easily.A status has been compared to ready-made clothes. Within certain limits the buyer can choose style and material. But an American is not free to choose the clothes of a Chinese peasant or that of a Hindu prince. We must choose from among the clothing presented by our society.Furthermore, our choice is limited to a size that will fit, as well as by our wallet. Having made a choice within these limits, we can have certain changes made. But apart from small adjustments, we tend to be limited to what the stores have on their shelves. Statuses too come ready-made, and the range of choice among them is limited.29. According to the writer, people often assume different statuses______.A. in order to distinguish themselves from othersB. in order to better recognize other peopleC. as their mental processes changeD. as the situation changes30. In the last sentence of the second paragraph, “it”refers to “___”A. constant mental processB. selecting one’s own statusesC. recognition of other people’s statusesD. fitting our actions to those of other properly31. What can be the best title for this text?A. Proper Relations.B. Limited Choices.C. Judgment of Statuses.D. Comparison of Clothes.DIn the winter months the temperature in most of Canada usually stays below 0℃. However, in some parts of Canada, such as southern British Columbia, the temperature rarely goes below 0℃. In most areas where people live, snow will be on the ground from mid-December to mid- March. Though Canada’s winter may be much colder and longer than you are used to, it can be very enjoyable. For many Canadians, being active in winter is an important part of enjoying life. There are many outdoor winter activities, including skiing, ice fishing, walking, and skating. Joining in one of these activities may help you appreciate winter and enjoy your time outside in the snow.Dressing for winterDuring winter in Canada, you will need warm clothing. If possible, arrive with these items or be prepared to buy them soon after your arrival. You will need:*warm waterproof boots *a scarf for your neck*a hat that covers your ears *gloves for your hands*thick winter coats, pants and sweatersLayers keep you warmIt’s a good idea to layer your clothing by, for example, wearing a T-shirt and a sweater underneath a jacket.

You will need: *a warm waterproof coat *waterproof hats*an umbrella *rain boots or snow bootsLearn more about weather and seasons across Canada. You can also contact Related Links, for example, an immigrant-serving organization in the community where you live for more information about dressing for winter.32. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?A. To tell about the details about Canada.B. To show many outdoor winter activities.C. To introduce the daily life of Canadians.D. To encourage you to enjoy winter in Canada.33. What is the important part for many Canadians in winter?A. Ice fishing.B. Joining a groupC. Leading an active life.D. Staying in the snow34.

AHow to Get the Sleep Your Body Needs◆Boil three to four large lettuce leaves in a cup of water for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, add two mints, and drink just before you go to bed. Lettuce contains a sleep-inducing substance called lactucarium, which affects the brain similarly to opium. Unlike opium, of course, you won't run the risk of addiction!◆Give yourself a massage. Slowly move the tips of your fingers around your eyes in a slow, circular motion. After a minute, move down to your mouth, then to your neck and the back of your head. Continue down your body until you find you're so relaxed you're ready to drop off to sleep.◆Take a hot bath 90 to 120 minutes before bedtime. A research study found that women with sleeplessness who took a hot bath during this period of time (water temperature approximately 105°F), slept much better that night. The bath increased their center body temperature, which then immediately dropped once they got out of the bath, readying them for sleep.◆Keep a notebook at your bedside along with a gentle night-light and pen. Then, if you wake in the middle of the night and your mind starts going, you can quickly write what you dream about on the page, returning to sleep quickly by knowing you “caught” those thoughts.If you're tired of feeling like you're not at your best or like you're not getting the sleep you need, then it's time to take action! Sign-up for the National Sleep Foundation's Sleep Challenge today!1.What is the advantage of the first tip?A.It makes you feel relaxed.B.It is harmless to your health.C.It provides vegetable nutrition.D.It is the most effective in the text.2.What makes you go to sleep more easily after taking a hot bath?A.Body temperature change.B.Comfort of the whole body.C.Tiredness from the hot bath.D.High temperature of the water.3.Why are you advised to write down things in your dream?A.To work better next day.B.To avoid forgetting them.C.To fall asleep again soon.D.To record sleeping condition.BThe boss turned down a raise and gave it to his staff instead. Tony Bennett, the head coach of the University of Virginia (UVA)men's basketball team, was offered a large pay raise after his team won the national championship in 2019. But to everyone's surprise, he turned the offer down and requested that the money go to his staff and the basketball program instead. What's more, he donated $ 500,000 to the basketball players.The boss bought an employee a new car. On the night before Alabama student Walter Carr's first day at Bellhops Moving company, his car broke down. Nobody could give him a ride to work, so Carr decided to walk the 20-miIe distance overnight. After seven hours, he arrived right on time. When the boss heard about Carr's unbelievable story, he drove from Tennessee to Alabama to give the young student a Ford Escape.The boss forgave a costly mistake. A diner at a British steakhouse had a stroke of luck when he was accidentally served an expensive bottle of red wine. Instead of blaming the server who made the mistake, as some might, the boss decided to laugh it off “To the customer who accidentally got given a bottle of wine, which is £4,500 last night, hope you enjoyed your evening!" the steakhouse tweeted. "To the server who accidentally gave it away, cheer up! We love you anyway.”The boss gave his staff a free trip to Hawaii. Imagine drinking a cocktail on a sunny, warm beach with 500 of your closest employees. That's how Brian Scudamore, the founder and CEO of home service provider O2E Brands, chose to spend his vacation in 2017. Back in 2012, Scudamore promised his employees that if they could double the company's income in five years, he would take them on an all — expenses — paid trip to Hawaii. Needless to say, they achieved the goal.4.Which of the following best describes Tony Bennett?A.Honest.B.Professional.C.Wealthy.D.Generous.5.Why did the boss buy a new car to Walter Carr?A.To make up his long walk.B.To praise his moving action.C.To solve his financial problem.D.To call on others to learn from him.6.Why did the diner at a British steakhouse enjoy expensive wine?A.He got it as a reward.B.He liked it very much.C.He acquired it by accident.D.He met with a generous boss.7.What did the four bosses mentioned in the text have in common?A.They did a nice thing to their employees.B.They forgave their employee's mistakes.C.They hoped to double the company's income.D.They fulfilled their promises to their employees.COne of the problems damaging our planet is the number of things we throw away. Rubbish of all kinds is piling up in landfills and polluting our rivers and oceans. A more recent addition to the list of things we chuck away is e-waste--electronic items that are broken and not recycled. Now solutions are being found to give this stuff a new life.Many millions of tons of televisions, phones, and other electronic equipment are discarded each year, partly because it's cheaper to replace them than fix them, but also because we lack the skills to repair them. A UN report claims the 50 million tons of e-waste generated every year will more than double to 110 million tons by 2050, making it the fastest growing waste stream in the world.However, there's a growing trend for repair events and clubs which could be part of a solution to the growing amount of electrical and electronic junk. The BBC visited a Restart Project in London, which is one of many found around the world. One o£ its volunteers, Francesco Calo, said, “This project allows you to reduce waste, extend the life of objects, and it helps people who cannot afford to get rid of items that have developed a fault. ”As many electrical items contain valuable metals, another idea is e-waste mining. An experiment at the University of New South Wales involves extracting these materials from electronic gadgets. It's thought that doing this could be more profitable than traditional mining. With phones typically containing as many as 60 elements, this could be part of the solution to our appetite for new technology.At present, in countries where there is no legislation, much of it just gets dumped. However, the European Union, for example, is trying to tackle the problem by insisting manufacturers make appliances longer-lasting and supply spare parts for machines for up 10 years.8.What is the passage mainly about?A.The Restart Project founded to get rid of e-waste.B.The phenomenon of the sharp rise of electronic junk.C.The damage caused by quantities of things we throw away.D.Possible solutions to the growing amount of electronic waste.9.Which word can replace the underlined word “discarded” in paragraph 2?A.Produced.B.Promoted.C.Recycled.D.Abandoned.10.What do we know about the Restart Project according to the text?A.It aims to reduce e-waste by providing repair service.B.It offers poor people new devices to replace old ones.C.It is a project recycling electrical and electronic junk.D.It intends to make great profits by e-waste mining.11.From which is the text probably taken?A.A science textbook.B.An environmental magazine.C.A research paper.D.An economic journal.DInitially South Korea had been doing well against the virus, but in August, the number of reported infections nearly doubled, from 56 to 103, in just two days. It reached a peak of 441 cases on August 26 before ticking back down to at least 100 new infections ger day. That month, the health ministry banned large gatherings and shut nightclubs, churches and beaches to turn the tide.Under such a terrible situation, many restaurants have taken effective measures to cope with it. For example, No Brand Burger, a fast-food chain in South Korea, is using robots to take orders, prepare food and bring meals out to diners. As a result, customers can avoid any interaction with a human server during the pandemic (疫'情).Customers order and pay via touchscreen, and then their request is sent to the kitchen where a cooking machine heats up the buns and patties. When it's ready, a robot “waiter” brings out their takeout bag. Human workers add toppings to the burgers and wrap them up in takeout bags before passing them over to serving robots.Last month, takeout orders at No Brand Burger accounted for 58 percent total sales, up from 42 percent in July, according to the chain's parent company, Shinsegae Food. After a recent second wave of coronavirus infections, restaurants in South Korea were only allowed to provide takeout and delivery after 9 p. m. —a restriction that was only lifted Monday. Other restaurants in Asia have started employing robot servers during the pandemic.In South Korea, the Italian restaurant chain Mad for Garlic is using serving robots even, for sit-down customers. Using 3D space mapping and other technology, the electronic “waiter”, known as Aglio Kim, navigates between tables with up to five orders. Mad for Garlic manager Lee Young — ho said kids especially like the robots, which can carry up to 66 pounds in their trays.12.What's the function of Paragraph 1?A.It shows how severe the pandemic was.B.It provides background information of robot service.C.It introduces the measures the government has taken.D.It arouses people's interest in reading the text.13.Why are serving robots put into use?A.To cut human interaction during the pandemic.B.To improve the efficiency of restaurants.C.To promote Robot technology.D.To attract children customers.14.What can robots at a fast-food chain in South Korea do?A.Add toppings to the burgers.B.Pack food for diners.C.Bring meals out to diners D.Chat with customers.15.What can be learned from the last two paragraphs?A.The robot service is generally welcomed by customers.B.Other restaurants have long put robots into practice.C.Restaurants could only provide takeout in the day time.D.Children like robots because they can play with them.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

huge amounts of money when compared to people in other professions.Some people consider it a reasonable approach.However,there are a few who think it is unreasonable.Some people think sports professionals with outstanding performance should be overpaid mainly because it is a shortlived career which requires hard work when compared to other professions.This field demands a strict,trained life with great physical efforts,consistent practice,a fixed diet schedule to bring pride and glory to the country.Due to such tough requirements,people in this field have an average career span of 10-15 years.As sports professionals have a limited sports career,they should be rewarded with high monetary gains to acknowledge their excellent performance.However,there are a few who think that top performing sportsmen should not have high salaries.They feel that there are other important professions which are more valuable to the country when compared to the sports field.For example,the professions like doctors and social workers work for the betterment of the society.They not only help to reduce the social problems existing in the community,but also contribute to providing a healthy environment.As a result,they greatly contribute to the growth of thecountry.Thus,their efforts should be equally recognized along with the sports professionals.In my opinion,although there are some logical reasons for huge earnings of the top performing players,people from other professions should also be equally appreciated in terms of abundant monetary benefits for their outstanding contribution as all the professions are important in their own field and contribute to the overall development of the country.To conclude,sports people delivering excellent performance should not be overpaid in comparison to other professionals who make a great contribution to the society.24.A key reason for overpaying sportsprofessionals with outstandingperformance is that ________.A.they work harder than othersB.they have to keep a strict dietC.their career is relatively shortD.they meet tough requirements 25.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?A.Some people look down onsportsmen.B.Valuing sports can lead to prejudice.C.Doctors have a lower status insociety.D.Not all professions can get great incomes.26.What's the author's attitude towards overpaying top sportsmen?A.Opposing.B.Supportive.C.Ambiguous.D.Unconcerned.27.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.People's various attitudes to topsportsmen.B.Whether top sportsmen should beoverpaid.C.Top sportsmen bring honor to theirhomeland.D.Overpaying top sportsmen harmsother professions.CFestival to boost tea culture and tourism in Changsha CountyThe 4th Changsha Tea Cultural Tourism Festival

problems”,it was hard to imagine this dynamic 11yearold girl could settle a problem that has escaped scientists for years.In just three months,Rao designed a device that can replace the costly and lengthy tests currently used to reliably determine lead (铅) levels in our fresh water.Inspired by the current litigation (诉讼) in Flint,Michigan,a case of water pollution from 2014 to 2015,Rao designed a new testing system that resulted in her being named America's Top Young Scientist for 2017.Rao had been following the water problem for about two years.She was amazed by the number of people affected by lead pollution in water and wanted to do something to change this.Gitanjali spent months trying to convince local high schools and colleges to give her lab time to continue her experiment.At home,Gitanjali worked on her project in the “science room” that she asked her parents to create for her.Rao created a device that uses three parts:a cartridge,a Bluetooth reader and an app.To put it simply,the cartridge contains carbon nanotubes (纳米管) that react to lead.This reaction is then registered by the Bluetooth reader,which sends a signal to a mobile app that can tell you immediately if your water is safe to drink.Rao appropriately named the device Tethys after the Greek goddess of fresh water,hoping to make a little improvement to get the device on the market.While we may not be aware of any lead pollution present in our aging pipelines,lead poisoning can cause delays in physical and mental development.With Rao believing that the “purpose of science is to make a difference”,her incredible invention could make a difference to millions of people in the United States.32.What do we know about Rao's device? A.It's cheap and inaccurate.B.It's cheap and timesaving.C.It's expensive and reliable.D.It's portable and timeconsuming. 33.What made Rao have the idea ofdesigning the device?A.Her parents' suggestions.B.The name of the Greek goddess. C.Her interest in settling real problems. D.The water pollution litigation in Flint.34.What do the carbon nanotubes function as?A.Sending immediate signals. B.Recording the reaction results. C.Detecting the presence of lead. D.Showing the water quality results. 35.What does the author think of Rao's invention?A.It will lead Rao to make a fortune.B.It will help millions of Americans drink safe water.C.It will promote the development of science in America.D.It will soon settle the leadpollutedproblem thoroughly.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

One of them was a English corner, where students could practice their speaking skills. The first English corner was held in the school library.The library was a perfect place for the English corner. It was quiet and had enough space for everyone to sit down and talk. Students from different classes gathered there, and they were all excited to participate.The English corner started at 4 o'clock.

If you want to visit a museum for free, you should choose ______.A. Beijing Air and Space Museum at Beihang UniversityB. China Ichthyic Culture Museum at Shanghai Ocean UniversityC. Yifu Museum of China University of GeosciencesD. China Academy Museum at Hunan University22. All the museums are open on Saturday EXCEPT ______.A. Beijing Air and Space Museum at Beihang UniversityB. Fudan University MuseumC. Yifu Museum of China University of GeosciencesD. China Academy Museum at Hunan University23. Those who are interested in dinosaurs should visit ______.A. Fudan University MuseumB. China Ichthyic Culture Museum at Shanghai Ocean UniversityC. Yifu Museum of China University of GeosciencesD. China Academy Museum at Hunan UniversityBAt the start of 2012, I set myself the challenge of trying to read a book from every country in a year to find out what I was missing.So I created a blog called “A Year of Reading the World” and put out an appeal for suggestions of titles that I could read in English.The response was amazing. Before I knew it, people all over the planet were getting in touch with ideas and offers of help. Some posted me books from their home countries. Others did hours ofresearch on my behalf. In addition, several writers, like Panama’s Juan David Morgan, sent me unpublished translations of their novels, giving me a rare opportunity to read works otherwise unavailable to the 62 percent of Britons who only speak English. Even with such an extraordinary team of bibliophiles (藏书家) behind me, however, sourcing books was no easy task.This was particularly true for Portuguese-speaking African countries. There’s precious little on offer for states such as the Comoros, Madagascar and Mozambique –I had to rely on unpublished manuscripts for several of these.Then there were places where stories are rarely written down. If you’re after a good yarn (故事) in the Marshall Islands, for example, you’re more likely to go and ask the local chief’s permission to hear one of the local storytellers than you are to pick up a book.All in all, tracking down stories like these took as much time as the reading. It was a tall order to fit it all in around work and many were the nights when I sat bleary-eyed into the small hours to make sure I stuck to my target of reading one book every 1.87 days.But the effort was worth it. As I made my way through the planet’s literary landscapes, extraordinary things started to happen. Far from simply armchair traveling, I found I was inhabiting the mental space of the storytellers. It took me inside the thoughts of individuals living far away and showed me the world through their eyes. These stories not only opened my mind to the nuts and bolts of life in other places, but opened my heart to the way people there might feel.One by one, the country names on the list that had begun as an intellectual exercise at the start of the year transformed into vibrant places filled with laughter, love, anger, hope and fear. Lands that had once seemed exotic and remote became close and familiar to me –places I could identify with. At its best, I learned, fiction makes the world real.24. According to the article, readers of the blog “A Year of Reading the World”______.A. should feel free to upload their book reviewsB. are asked to give advice on what book to read about their countryC. have to send a list of their favorite books to the authorD. are welcome to share their storytelling skills25. The underlined word “sourcing”in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.A. researchingB. acquiringC. classifyingD. selecting26. The literature of the Marshall Islands is rarely known to the world because ______.A. most of its literature is written in PortugueseB. writers there are unwilling to publish their manuscriptsC. the country’s literature is mostly in the form of oral storiesD. the quality of literature there is very poor27. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?A. The author spent far more time searching for books than that she spent reading them.B. The author thought reading foreign books would spare her the trouble of traveling there.C. The author invited book researchers overseas to help her with her challenge.D. The author found the reading challenge both exhausting and rewarding.CI remember as a young child bringing a bunch of brilliant yellow flowers to my mother.It didn’t matter that the stems (茎) felt sticky (粘的) or that both my parents hated the presence of these flowers in the lawn.I thought they were beautiful!And there were so many of them!We spent hours picking the flowers and then picking the blossoms off with a snap (弹指) of our fingers.But the supply of dandelions (蒲公英) never ran out.My father or brothers would chop off all the heads with the lawnmower (割草机) at least once a week, but that didn’t stop these hardy wonders.And for those flowers that escaped the honor of being hand-delivered to my mother or the sharp blades (刀片) of the lawnmower, there was another level of existence.The soft roundness of a dandelion gone to seed caused endless laughter of delight as we unknowingly spread this flower across the yard.As I worked in my garden last week, pulling unwanted weeds out of the space that would become home for tomatoes, corn, peas and sunflowers, I again marveled at the flower that some call a weed.And I thought, if only I had the staying power of a dandelion.If only I could stretch (延伸) my roots so deep and straight that something pulling on my stem couldn’t separate me completely from the source that feeds me life.If only I could come back to face the world with a bright, sunshiny face after someone has run me over with a lawnmower or worse, purposely attacked me in an attempt to destroy me.If only I could spread love and encouragement as freely and fully as this flower spreads seeds of itself.The lawns at my parents’home are now beautiful green blankets.The only patches (点缀) of color come from well-placed, well-controlled flowerbeds.Chemicals have managed to kill what human interference couldn’t.I hope you and I can be different.I hope that we can stretch our roots deep enough that the strongest poison can’t reach our souls.I hope that we can overcome the poisons of anger, fear, hate, criticism and competitiveness.28. In the author’s parents’eyes, the dandelions in the lawn were ______.A. the most beautiful flowersB. good playthings for their kidsC. wonders of natureD. annoying weeds29. What happened to the dandelions in the end?A. They spread over the whole lawn.B. They were killed by the chemicals.C. They disappeared under the lawnmower.D. They decorated the flowerbeds.30. Why does the author love dandelions so much?A. They remind her of good childhood memories.B. In her eyes they are more beautiful than other weeds.C. They have an interesting way of spreading its seeds.D. They are symbols of strength.31. Through the article, the author mainly wants to ______.A. speak against chemicals people use to kill weedsB. express regret that people fail to see the beauty of lifeC. share thoughts and inspirations she gained from dandelionsD. warn us against poisoning weeds because they’re good for our healthDWhile the dangers of climate change attract more attention than other environmental issues, theproblems of waste and toxics (有毒物质) also continue –and are worthy of attention and action. One of the fastest growing environmental problems of the past decade has been the rapid increase in electronic waste. As society has moved from the iPhone 2 to the iPhone 6, all of those old iPhones have had to go somewhere. Tablets, PCs, old TVs, DVD players and countless other devices (设备) are nearly always abandoned before their useful life is over. Many of these devices contain small amounts of toxic materials. When they are thrown away, these toxics can enter our garbage (垃圾) system. That system is not designed to handle dangerous waste.Here in New York City, efforts to manage electronic waste began during Mayor Bloomberg’s PlaNYC program and continue under Mayor de Blasio’s OneNYC. This past January, New York City and New York State started a ban on disposing (处理) of electronic waste with regular garbage. New Yorkers who throw their iPhone into the garbage could be subject to a $100 fine.While the city will not pick up electronics for you, 90 locations throughout the city, including Best Buy and Staples stores and the Salvation Army, will accept electronics that are not needed any more. In partnership with Electronic Recyclers International, the city began a collection program in November 2013 at apartment buildings. Buildings provide rooms or large containers for local people who need to throw their old devices away. Buildings can also decide on specific days for collection.However, consumers alone cannot address the issue of electronic waste. The companies that build and sell these devices must play a key role. Now it isn’t the time to get into the short lives of iPhones or whether or not this is planned, but if these products are going to be replaced so often then Apple and its competitors must design the phones to be easily taken apart for raw materials or parts to be used in other devices.
