  A new report says plastics are responsible for $ 13 billion in damage to the oceans and the undersea environment. The findings were announced recently at a United Nations conference. The report tells about the harm of plastics to sea life and what should be done to improve the situation.

  Plastic thrown away carelessly makes its way into rivers and other waterways. Finally,they collect in the sea. Plastics can never go away because most plastics are not biodegradable―destroyed by bacteria or natural processes. Instead* it just breaks up into smaller pieces over time and combines with some chemicals and other pollutants (污染物质) in the sea. Then,fish may eat them. That means harmful materials may get into our food supplies eventually.

  But we human beings can make a big difference. We can use fewer disposable (用完即丢弃的) plastic products and throw plastics away correctly. We can also reuse plastic products rather than throw them away after the first use. Besides * plastic recycling programmes also work,where old bottles and other plastics are col?lected,broken down and used to make new products. We should really care about our environment and take some steps to reduce the pollution.

  The report also calls on companies to recycle plastic products and use them to replace new raw materials. It also asks the companies to improve methods for using plastics and direct the use of plastics. Besides,it calls for information on the way that plastics are thrown out after use. Due to their putting values on plastics,com?panies bear responsibility for improving the environment. But all people in our soci?ety should join to deal with the problem.

  Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example,in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman's smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feel?ings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example,many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities) .  Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don't smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures,a smile is frequently used to cover pain?ful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.

  Our faces show emotions (情感) ,but we should not attempt to "read" people from another culture as we would "read" someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as members of an?other do does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather,there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressiveness permitted. For example? in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as free?ly as Americans do. When with friends,Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.

  It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotions are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits,we may make the mistake of "reading" the other person incorrectly.

5. What does the smile usually mean in the US?

   A. Love. B. Politeness.

   C. Joy. D. Thankfulness.

6. The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that a smile can       .

   A. show friendliness to strangers

   B. be used to hide true feelings

   C. be used in the wrong places

   D. show personal habits

7. What should we do before attempting to "read" people?

   A. Learn about their relations with others.

   B. Understand their cultural backgrounds. 

   C. Find out about their past experience.

   D. Figure out what they will do next.

8. What would be the best title for the text?

   A. Cultural differences

   B. Smiles and relationships

   C. Facial expressiveness

   D. Habits and emotions
