A.Means of e?waste recycling B.How e?waste comes into being C.The benefit of e?waste recycling D.The technologies of e?waste recycling E.The importance of the electronic waste recycle F.Modern technology brings convenience and e?waste |
1.
Modern technology does bring us many conveniences(便利),from Wi?Fi(无线网络)enabled cell phones and ever? smaller laptop computers that make entire lives easy to energy? efficient washers that use half the power and time to complete their tasks. However,these new toys and equipment finally become electronic waste ( 电子垃圾)(e? waste)once they are out of use.
2.
E? waste includes everything from empty printer ink containers to broken refrigerators. As people buy new items to replace aging electronics or make upgrades(升级),more electronic waste comes into being. In some cases,such as 2009's switch from analog(模拟)to digital television broadcasting in the United States,changes in technology are so great that old equipment may not even work at all with new systems.
3.
There are many reasons why it is important to recycle electronic waste. Much of the material used to construct electronics,including metal and plastic parts,can be recycled into new items at a discount of the cost and energy use needed to create things from new raw materials(原材料). Additionally,many electronics contain poisonous substances (有毒物质)that are harmful to the environment and could be deadly if they go into an area's groundwater. When properly recycled,they can be reused and will not do harm to the environment. Because of these environmental concerns,many areas require by law that electronic waste be properly recycled.
4.
The availability(可用性)of e?waste recycling programs varies from place to place. In some areas,annual collections are held once or twice a year as a means of dealing with e?waste as well as used engine oil or other waste that is harmful to the environment. There are also some good alternatives (替代品) to recycling your e?waste. Any items that are in working condition can be given to friends or donated to charities(慈善机构)like Goodwill or the Salvation Army,who rely heavily on donations ( 捐赠) . Freecycling ,or passing on your unwanted items to those in need of them,is also a means of finding new homes for used items.
5.
E?waste recycling helps protect the environment by reducing the amount of poisonous materials placed in landfills(垃圾场)and saving recyclable parts to save energy and other resources. Recycling is a way of life. Stick to that choice every single day and recycling will become second nature to us.

Last Friday, I was ing home late after spending time with friends and thought I’d go down to the $99 cent pizza place. On the way, I saw a man sitting on the stairs alone there. I’d seen him before every day I run late to work, but this time I had no place to rush off to.
There was something about him, a quiet manner, different from many of other homeless people I had seen in New York City. I walked past him, went to the pizza place, and those 10 seconds waiting in line was enough to practice stepping outside of my usual, familiar flow. So with a few slices in hand, I went back to join him. I asked him if he was hungry. He said yes, but not for pizza because it made him unfortable. He’d rather have a few bucks for chicken and rice since it was easier on his stomach. It’s funny, in that moment, he became more real to me.
This man I had seen almost every day was someone with specific conditions, needs, and experiences. We exchanged names and ended up talking for a little over an hour that night as Kevin told me stories from his life, how he had done things when “he was younger and didn’t know any better” and how he tried to make amends (补偿) but too much time had passed. He shared his views on the value for young adults to learn the history of other people.
He talked about his one wish being in his 60’s before he leaves this earth, which is to share his story with the teenagers and young adults so they could avoid the mistakes he went through. Throughout the conversation, he eventually got his chicken and rice and gifted me a rose he had been carrying. Shortly afterwards, I made my way home, thinking to myself, “I met an amazing homeless person”.
1.The writer’s purpose in writing the passage is to ____.
A. share his experience
B. show his generosity
C. express his thoughts
D. exchange his opinions
2.The homeless man refused pizza because he ____.
A. did not feel very hungry at that moment
B. had something wrong with his stomach
C. preferred some chicken and rice to pizza
D. might feel ashamed to be given something
3.What’s the homeless man’s last wish?
A. To bee a lot younger again.
B. To make amends for his early life.
C. To have enough chicken and rice to eat.
D. To teach the young not to follow his example.
4.It can be inferred from the text that ____.
A. The homeless man is different from others
B. The writer showed his pity to the homeless man
C. What the homeless man thought shocked the writer
D. What the homeless man did was not very meaningful
5.How do you like the homeless man after reading the passage?
