It was your birthday, and you just opened your biggest gift — a smooth silver laptop. You can’t wait to instant-message your friends with the news, but first you have to get rid of your old desktop computer. Do you just throw away the monitor and keyboard in the trash? Not anymore!
Three states, that is, California, Maine, and Maryland, recently passed laws prohibiting people from throwing away electronic waste, or e-waste, includes televisions, computers, and cell phones. Although they don’t make you sick when you use them, they do when they are destroyed, for they contain heavy metals that can be harmful to human bodies. For example, cell phone batteries contain a kind of chemical causing damage to kidneys and deserted computer monitors can damage brains. And flat TV screens may cause injury to the nervous system. Those metals can leak into the ground or give off pollutants when burned.
It is required that e-waste be placed at special sites rather than usual landfills. Several other states are considering similar laws and California is also pushing for a law banning the application of such dangerous substances.
Government officials are not the only people taking aim at e-waste; environmentalists are also urging people to recycle their outdated equipment.
“It is just a waste … to not recycle,” Patrick, an associate professor of occupational and environmental health at university of Iowa, told The Daily Iowan, “Allowing dangerous chemicals to leak into the environment for decades seems irresponsible.”
What Can You Do?
Reduce. Be a responsible shopper, and take care of your electronics so they will last longer.
Re-use. Donate or sell your old high-tech equipment.
Recycle. To find a responsible recycler, contact a local or state environmental group.
【小题1】What’s the best title of this passage?

A.E-waste is being made good use of.
B.E-waste, a big threat to us.
C.E-waste is dangerous to us all the while.
D.Goodbye, e-waste.
【小题2】Why is e-waste harmful and dangerous to human beings?
A.Because they can go off at times and threaten us.
B.Because they can make people sick, as long as people use them.
C.Because they contain poisonous chemical substances.
D.Because they take too much space when placed in trashes.
【小题3】What can we know from Patrick’s words?
A.Waste can’t be recycled.
B.Waste can be made use of by recycling
C.We have to recycle e-waste to protect the environment.
D.Protecting the environment is important.
【小题4】Which of the following is NOT given as a piece of advice to help with e-wastes?
A.Taking care of your electronics so they will last longer.
B.Donating or selling your old high-tech equipment.
C.Contacting a local or state environmental group.
D.Asking fewer people to use electric products.

A. Live below your means

B. Always stay positive

C. Educate yourself

D. Work towards a dream

E. Developing lasting personal relationships

F. Stay in shape

1.____________

We all want to buy that new piece of technology, treat ourselves to an expensive dinner, or take out a loan for the car we can't afford. It might feel great at the time but hasty(匆忙的)spending hurts a lot later on. Enjoy life's simple pleasures and save as much as you can. Expensive things don't create lasting happiness. Careful spending will bring you greater enjoyment in the long run.

2._____________

To be happy we need continuous growth. The best way to grow is life-long education. This doesn't mean you need to pursue a doctorate or spend 2 hours reading every day. Self-education can be anything that takes you out of your comfort zone. The important part is keeping an open mind and searching for fresh ideas.

3.____________

Suppose you had everything you wanted. Would you be happy without anyone to share it with? The personal relationships we develop with friends and family members are the greatest source of happiness in our lives. Don't forget about them. Taking the time to develop and enjoy personal relationships is important to long-term happiness.

4._____________                          

Even if your life isn't perfect, you can always build toward a goal. The best way to do this is working towards a goal. We can’t control everything about our lives, but working towards a goal gives us something positive to focus on and lays the foundation for future success. No matter what your passion is, get out there and start doing something.

5._____________

You only get one body. Once it is ruined, there isn't much you can do about it. Exercise to keep the body working well. Avoid eating too much of damaging substances and unhealthy foods. It may feel terrible at the time but enjoying good health in your later years is worth the sacrifice.
