题文

When your pen is broken, you think that’s the end of its life. You throw it away. It then joins tons of other garbage that is becoming a big problem in cities. Each day, about 10,000 tons of waste is produced in Guangzhou, and 17,000 tons of household waste is produced in Beijing.In other countries, the case is similar.“If you’re like most of us, most Americans, you’re making seven pounds (3.17kg) of trash a day,” US writer Edward Humes told CNN. So, an American makes 102 tons of trash in a lifetime. If you simply throw away that broken pen, it goes to a landfill(垃圾填埋场) and is buried together with many other trash. To prevent polluting the groundwater, workers cover the trash with soil and keep it dry. And your pen will stay there for a long, long time, without having further use. But it could have a better destination: the recycling bin.Have you ever noticed the different colors of trash bins in the street? Many cities in China have been running a waste-sorting (垃圾分类) campaign. They divide trash into “recyclable waste” and “unrecyclable waste”. Recycling waste can save energy, reduce greenhouse gas, and keep space free for the unrecyclable trash.Take your pen as an example. At the recycling factory, its metal parts could be taken out and reused to make other things.But recycling is not enough, experts say. Making less waste in the first place is the way forward. “The best thing to do is just keep using your stuff for as long as you can,” US writer Adam Minter told Time Out magazine. 小题1:根据短文内容完成句子填空（每空限填一个单词）。 In second paragraph, we can know China is __________ __________ other countries in producing waste. 小题2:根据短文内容完成句子填空（每空限填一个单词）。 Workers cover the trash with soil in order to __________ it __________ polluting the groundwater. 小题3:根据短文内容回答问题。 According to the story, what is the best wayto save energy? _______________________________________________________________________________ 小题4:把短文中画线的句子译成汉语。 _______________________________________________________________________________ 小题5:根据短文内容用一个完整的英文句子（限10个词以内）回答问题。 What’s the main purpose of the passage? _______________________________________________________________________________
