Everyone in the city must sort （分类)his or her litter according to the following kinds: wet, dry ,harmful and recyclable.This sounds like a great idea. If we can sort our litter properly, we can reduce （减少）waste and recycle things better. But I wonder--. will people really follow this rule?In fact, most Chinese cities already have these recycling rules. Outside of my apartment building, there are four bins 一kitchen waste, recyclable waste, harmful waste and other waste. Guess how many people put their litter into the correct bin? Most people don't notice these signs and just put their litter into whatever bin（垃圾桶）they want.Look, I understand. Sorting litter correctly can be hard. Not everyone knows the difference between " wet" litter and " harmful" litter, for example. And it takes time to sort it properly. How can we deal with this problem?In fact, it can be done. In some cities, such as Shanghai, every family must sort their litter correctly.If they don't, they have to pay a fine.But in small towns like my hometown, we still don't carry out litter sorting. The litter truck just comes once a week and collects our litter. However, if we take our empty cans or bottles to the store, we can recycle them and get some money.Personally, I don't think it would be hard for me to sort my litter. I don't sort （分类）it now, but maybe I will later.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
