21、 What happens to your computers, MP3 players and cellphones when they’re broken or you want a new one?
Most people just throw them away. In 2014, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of electronic waste(e-waste) and only recycled 6.5 million tons, the United Nations said. The US was the biggest waster, producing 7.1 million tons of waste. China ranked second, with 6 million tons.
It’s important to pay attention to e-waste. It can either be valuable or harmful, depending on how we treat it.
“E-waste is a valuable ‘urban mine (城市矿藏)’,” said David Malone, the UN under-secretary-general (副秘书长). The gold, silver, iron (铁) and copper (铜) in e-waste around the world are worth some $52 billion (322.1 billion yuan). These materials can be reused and help us save resources.
But if people throw their electronics away, toxic (有毒的) chemicals can get into the soil or air, affecting the environment and people’s health. Malone said.
To help reduce e-waste, the first thing we can do is to buy longer-lasting electronic devices. If you have unwanted electronics, such as aging toys or cellphones, find a new home for them by giving them to charities. You can also see if there are any companies that offer recycling programs for their products. Apple, for instance, now offers people a discount (折扣) in China if they hand in their used devices when buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used devices and sell them at lower prices.
【1】When a computer is broken or no longer wanted, most people usually .
A.throw it away B.sell it to a second-hand shop
C.put it in a closet D.donate it to a charity
【2】How much e-waste was recycled in 2014?
A.41.8 million tons. B.6.5 million tons. C.7.1 million tons. D.6 million tons.
【3】The valuable materials in e-waste do NOT include .
A.silver B.copper C.steel D.iron
【4】Which of the following is TRUE?
A.China produced the most electronic waste in 2014.
B.E-waste does more harm to the environment than to people’s health.
C.People can buy new devices at lower price if they sell their old ones.
D.Some electronics companies have their own recycling programs.
【5】What does the story mainly tell us?
A.How much e-waste people produce each. B.What people can do to make money from e-waste.
C.Why and how we should recycle our e-waste. D.How e-waste has affected the environment.
22、 Gordon Williams's hobby may seem strange to people when they meet it for the first time. But it is a traditional craft (手艺). He builds model ships inside old bottles.
Gordon has always loved ships, especially sailing ships from the old days. His interest in this hobby began many years ago when he visited a museum in Ottawa, Canada, where there was a display of model ships in bottles. Gordon thought the display was wonderful. But he wondered how the craftsman got the ship through the thin neck of the bottle. Gordon decided to find it out.
He found an old master craftsman who was willing to teach him the necessary skills.
First, Gordon takes an old bottle. Then he puts in a layer of putty (一层油灰), carefully shaped and painted it look like the sea. Next he builds the ship. To get the ship through the neck of the bottle, Gordon holds down the masts (桅杆). Once the ship is inside the bottle, he takes a long, thin tool to raise the masts.
Gordon has completed well over one hundred models. His wish is to build bigger model ships, such as aircraft carriers. This will be more challenging, as he will have to build the ship actually inside the bottle. His hobby certainly needs time, patience and a steady hand.
【1】How did Gordon become interested in this hobby?

B.He saw a show of model ships in bottles.

23、There was a young man who was in trouble. He went bankrupt(破产) and his wife went away from him. From then on, failure was all that he had seen.

“Look,” the old man said. “Do you see that fern (蕨类植物) and bamboo there?”
“Yes,” the man answered.
“When I planted the fern and bamboo seeds, I watered them carefully. Within a few days, the fern quickly grew from the land,” the old man went on.
“However, I watered the bamboo seed for years, it still didn’t sprout. But I didn’t give up and continued looking after it. In the fifth year, a small sprout came out of the land. Within six months, the tree grew a hundred feet tall.”
“The little bamboo tree had been growing underground in the past four years, developing a root strong enough for its ground growth(生长) in the fifth year. If it hadn’t done this, it would not be so strong. So you know, all the time you were struggling, you were actually growing strong roots,” the old man said.

It is often said that eyes can speak. For example, when you are giving a speech, you are f【1】 more than one person. How can you know whether the audience like your speech or not? Watch their eyes!
