Answer 1

【答案】

【1】to, attention

【2】unwanted electronics

【3】be taken

【4】valuable, harmful

【5】e-waste/ electronic waste

【解析】

试题分析：短文大意：我们生活在一个生产和使用电子产品的社会，根据美国上个月报道，2014年全球产生了41，800，000吨电子垃圾，而只回收了6，500，000吨。注意电子垃圾重要，如果直接扔掉，有毒的化学品能够进入土壤或空气，影响环境和人们的健康。为了帮助回收电子垃圾，首先应该选择使用时间较长的电子设备，如果有不要的电子产品，为它们找一个新家；同时，把你的电子产品带到生产商看是否提供回收服务。

【1】to, attention 前空，由短语：sth happen to sb可知填to；后空：根据下文内容可以推测出填“注意……”，由短语pay attention to,可知填attention。故填：to, attention。

【2】unwanted electronics 句意：If you have unwanted electronics such as old toys or cell phones, find a new home for (C) them by giving them to charities.如果你有像旧玩具或手机的不要的电子产品，把它们给慈善团体为它们找一个新家。可知“它们”指的是：unwanted electronics. 故回答：unwanted electronics.

【3】be taken 本题是将宾语Computers and phones变成了句子的主语，也就是把原句变为被动语态，原句是带有情态动词can的被动语态，由“原情态动词+be+过去分词”构成，故填：be taken。

【4】valuable, harmful由第二段的：It’s important to pay (B) to e-waste. It can be either valuable or harmful.可知可以用valuable、harmful形容电子产品，故填：valuable, harmful

【5】e-waste/ electronic waste 本文主要讲的是电子产品对环境、生活的影响及处理方法，因此关键词是“电子产品”： e-waste/ electronic waste。
