    It was a cold day, but the students from Prosser Middle School in Chicago were sorting through the waste when they found that their school produces 1,500 pounds every day.
    Prosser is just one school that throws out nearly 4,000 meal trays every day. Counting all of Chicago’s public schools, the number comes to nearly a quarter of a million a day. That’s more than 1 million a week and about 5 million a month. 
    “None of the trays are being recycled,” said a teacher. “ Everyone agrees that it’s very bad.”
    Luckily, concerns about the environment and health have made some US cities take action. Dozens of schools have begun programs to reduce the use of food trays in school.
    These schools have also banned (禁止)some fast food, including McDonald’s. Instead, they offer students recyclable trays. They encourage students to sort out lunchroom waste, then wash and recycle milk cartons and trays . So far, the program has helped schools to save a total of 820,000 trays each week.
    Jay Stream Middle School in Illinois teaches its students how to collect trays. The school has cut its lunchroom waste by two thirds now that students recycle their used trays instead of breaking them.
    Prosser Middle School also sees the benefits of the program. Students have organized about 20 clubs and volunteer activities to cut down on cafeteria garbage. They now recycle 80 percent of the school waste. “ I joined the club,” said Erika Santana, a 16-year-old junior in Prosser, “because I want to make Earth a better place.”

    "Chinese style road crossing" is a hot topic in China. Many cities have started to punish these jaywalkers.
    "Chinese style road crossing" means that you cross roads with lots of people and you don't think about traffic lights at all.
    Beijing government announced that people who do not wait for the green light to cross the road will receive a fine of 10 yuan. What’s more, using the diagonal to cross the road is also against the rules. Walkers should walk in an "L" shape. Besides Beijing, many places have also taken steps to stop "Chinese style road crossing". Provinces such as Sichuan, Shanxi and Zhejiang have already started to fine jaywalkers 5 to 50 yuan since last year. This punishment can call on people to realize the importance of traffic safety. However, many people complain that the red lights last too long. "Everyone should follow the rules, or the country will lose its order," said People Daily.

    Teachers say the digital age has had a good and a not-so-good influence on the American teenagers. More than 2,000 high school teachers took an online survey.
    75 percent of the teachers said the Internet and digital search tools have had a “mostly good” use for their students' research habits and skills, But 87 percent agreed that these technologies "make the students not have enough attention.” And 64 percent said the technologies “do little to help them in courses.”
    Judy Buchanan is a director of the National Writing Project. Ms. Buchanan says digital research tools are helping students learn more, and learn faster. Teachers really like these tools, because they are ways to make some of learning exciting. Young people enjoy using these tools. And the goal is to help them become creative students of meaningful work, and not just that kind of copyist.
    But one problem the survey found is that many students don't have a good understanding of how to use the digital knowledge well. In other words, they trust(信任) too much of the information. Judy Buchanan says these students have not developed the skills they need to tell whether the online information is good or bad.
    Another problem the survey found is something that might not seem like a problem, at all, being-able to quickly find information online. Teachers say the ability of their students to work hard to find answers is becoming weaker. They say students depend too much on search engines (引擎) and do not make enough use, of printed books or research, librarians.
    Besides, many teachers are also worried about the problem that the Internet makes it easy for students to copy work done by others, instead of using their own abilities.
    小题1:      of the teachers agreed technologies may stop students from having enough attention.
    A．50%B．64%C．75%D．87%
    小题2: How many problems are mentioned (提及) in the passage'?
    A．OneB．Two.C．Three.D．Four.
    小题3:Teachers like the digital search tools because they can        .
    A．make some of learning exciting
    B．help students find answers easily
    C．tell whether the information is good or not
    D．help students copy the work done by others
    小题4:What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage?
    A．Digital search tools have quite a lot of advantages.
    B．Students don't know how to use the digital search tools.
    C．Many teachers are worried about the students' abilities.
    D．Students should learn how to use the digital tools in a right way.

    British band “Duran Duran” is going to be the first pop group to perform online concerts on the online game Second Life.

    Second Life is an online 3-dimensional, digital world, which is imagined, created and owned by the players—people all over the world.
    It is thought that 370,000 computer game players worldwide have Second Life characters that exist in the Second Life world, on the Internet.
    Earlier this year, BBC Radio held music festivals and played an interview from inside the game.
    In May of 2006, it held a music festival in Scotland, but also created a festival inside the Second Life game so that people all over the world could take part in their computers.
    One of the members of the band, Nick Rhodes, told the BBC News website: “When I first saw Second Life a few months ago, I couldn’t believe my eyes. When I started looking at the people on screen, talking, walking around and doing normal things, I thought this is somewhere between a strange TV show, a strange experience and a video game. I wanted “Duran Duran” to be part of it.” Each band member has a 3-dimensional person and it is hoped they will do their first online concert soon. The audience will be able to join in and react (反应) while the band is on stage.
    Rhodes said new technologies like Second Life will become more and more important in the music industry in the future.
    The number of people joining the Second Life is growing quickly. Some computer experts said it probably would be the ‘Next Big Thing’ in the future.
    小题1:Is Second Life an online game?
    小题2:What did BBC Radio create inside the Second Life?
    小题3:What was Nick Rhodes’ new idea?
    小题4:How will the band show their first concert online?
    小题5:What does the writer tell us in the last two paragraphs?
