Recycling Around the World Recycling is one of the best environmental success stories of the late 20th century. But we could do more. People must not see recycling as fashionable, but essential.
The Japanese are very good at recycling because they live in a crowded country
They do not have much space. They do not want to share their limited space with rubbish
But even so, Tokyo area alone is estimated to have three million tons of leftover rubbish at present.
In 1996, the United States recycled and composted (制成肥料) 57 million tons of waste (27% of the nation's solid waste). This is 57 million tons of waste which did not go into landfills and incinerators (焚化炉). In doing this, 7,000 rubbish collection programmes and recycling centres helped the authorities.
In Rockford, a city in Illinois, US, its officials choose one house each week and check its garbage (废物). If the garbage does not contain an newspapers or aluminium (铝) cans, then the resident of the house gets a prize of at least $1,000.
In Japan, certain cities give children weekly supplies of tissue paper and toilet paper in exchange for a weekly collection of newspapers.
In one year Britain recycles:
· 1 out of every 3 newspapers.
· 1 out of every 4 glass bottles and jars (罐子).
· 1 out of every 4 items of clothing.
· 1 out of every 3 aluminium drink cans.
In 1999, Hong Kong transported 1.3 million tons of waste to mainland China for recycling. Around 535,000 tons of waste were recycled in Hong Kong itself
Over half the things we throw away could be recycled. That means we could recycle
10 times as much as we do now.
However, recycling needs a lot of organisation and special equipment. Also, there is not much use for some recycled material.
第41题:Which of the following is NOT true of the Japanese?
A.They have recycled all their waste.
B.They live in a crowded country.
C.They are very good at recycling.
D.They have to share their limited space with rubbish.

The problem with history is simple. There is too much of it, And more of it comes along every day. We need something that will cut the past down to size. We want heroes and heroines that a modern person can identify with. That is where Hollywood comes in.
Film makers have often based their work on historical events. Why go to the trouble of writing a brand new story when so many exciting things have happened in the pasty People will often already know the story, That leaves the director free to thrill us with details of what life as like in imperial China or ancient Rome.
Most historians dislike this attitude. They see history as a complex thing, influenced by great political and economic forces. Film audiences are not very interested in this. They want kings and queens. They pay their money to see fancy clothes and a good fight. And this is what the film industry tries to give them.
Sometimes this approach can cause trouble. The film Titanic was a success around the world. In one of the film's most dramatic moments, a member of the ship's crew begins shooting into the crowd trying to get into the lifeboats as the ship sinks. When the film was released, the real life sailor's surviving relatives protested. They pointed out that this was not what had actually happened The film makers made a public apology. But everyone who has seen the film remembers the sight of the man shooting into the crowd.
Defenders of "Hollywood history" say that most of the time the film makers get the facts right. The action is based on real events and the clothes are accurate. People talk in the way that they would have done in the past even if they do it with a modern American accent. For many people, a historical film will be the closest they come to discovering the past.
It is still possible to find mistakes. Millions have been spent on putting together a replica of ancient Rome. The costumes are right and the atmosphere is perfect. Yet if you look very closely, a plane can be seen passing through the sky above.
Some film makers say that history needs to be simplified if it is to be filmed. The film maker's job is to make viewers interested. If they want to know more, they can do their own research.
The difference between film history and real history is the difference between the facts and the truth. We can watch a "costume drama" and know that all the materials used are probably accurate. But if we want to find out the whole story, we have to do it ourselves. We have to go back to the books.
The main point of the passage is______.
A.that films based on past events are often big hits
B.how much we can trust the Hollywood version of history
C.that we should read books rather than see films to know the history
D.why film audiences are interested in film history rather than real history

Scientists discovered that atoms of some substances are radioactive. This means that they are unstable and can be split. The chain of splitting atoms releases great destructive energy and it was this discovery which led scientists to develop the idea of an atomic bomb. The American government secretly worked to produce such a bomb and the first version was much more powerful than anyone had thought.
By this time, the World War II had ended in Europe. But the Japanese refused to surrender, the Americans decided that by dropping an atomic bomb on Japan, they could end the war quickly and save more of their soldier’s lives.
Soon after midnight on 6 August 1945, a bomb was dropped on the city of Hiroshima, a civilian target. No warning was given and there was total devastation. Almost all the buildings were destroyed and more than 100000 people died or were horribly wounded.
The Japanese military still did not want to surrender so three days later, the Americans dropped a second atomic bomb on the city of Nagasaki, killing 45000 people. The Japanese government was discussing ending the war when they heard the news of Nagasaki. Finally, they surrendered and the World War II came to an end.
At first, the scientists who had built the bomb were pleased that it had helped to end the war. However, many would come to realize that they had helped to create the most terrible weapon known to man.
The first atomic bomb ______.
A.was less powerful
B.was dropped in Nagasaki
C.was a failure
D.was tested in desert

Scientists have long believed one way to stop the Earth’s atmosphere from warming is by planting more trees. The idea is that more trees will take in or absorb some of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is a gas released by cars, factories and other human activities. The gas traps heat in the Earth’s atmosphere, which warms the planet. However, two new studies have found that trees may not be as helpful in reducing carbon dioxide as had been thought.
The first study was done at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. Researchers pumped extra carbon dioxide into a test area where pine trees were growing. The trees grew thirty-four percent faster during the first three years. However, in time, the trees slowed to about their normal growth rate. The scientists say this is because trees need other nutrients, such as nitrogen.
In the second study, researchers from Duke and Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine examined the soil around trees. They discovered that as the leaves broke down into the soil, all the carbon was not trapped in the soil. Much of it was released into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
The findings of the two studies were published last month in Nature magazine. They suggest there is limited value in planting trees to reduce the carbon dioxide pollution in the atmosphere.
Forest planting has been a part of negotiations on a world agreement to reduce greenhouse gases that scientists believe cause global warming. The United States, Canada, Japan and some other industrial countries have supported the idea. But this new research suggests the idea is not as effective as environmental activists had thought. Scientist Ram Oren of Duke University led the study on tree growth. He says that earlier estimates on the ability of forests to absorb carbon dioxide were overly hopeful.
Some scientists not involved in the studies say the research provides some of the first evidence on how trees react to carbon dioxide. Other scientists say the research disputes a belief among some coal and power companies. The companies say that rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will not create harmful global warming. Instead, they say it will increase forests and other plants.
What is the purpose of this passage?
A.Introduce some new ideas about the relationship between trees and carbon dioxide.
B.Introduce recent condition of global industrial pollution.
C.Call on people to plant more trees to reduce greenhouse gases.
D.Point out that power companies should be responsible for the rising levels of carbon dioxide.
