22、
During the two sessions (两会), Lei Jun, the founder (创始人) of China’s tech company Xiaomi, called for more e-waste recycling (回收利用) plans in China.
According to the 2020 UN Global E-waste Monitor, the world’s e-waste will reach 74.7 million tons by 2030.
The report also found that only 17.4 percent of the world’s e-waste was collected and recycled in 2019. This means that gold, silver, copper (铜) and other high-value materials were mostly burned or throw instead of reused. It’s a waste of 57 billion dollars, or 360 billion yuan. E-waste can also harm the environment and people’s health. For example, one mobile phone battery can pollute 600,000 liters of water.
China is now the world’s largest producer of e-waste, followed by the US, India and Japan, according to the UN report. Tech companies are looking for different ways to solve the problem. For example, US company Apple built a robot called Daisy to take 200 iPhones apart. It can take 200 iPhones apart within an hour. Previously the phones were cut up before people took the useful materials out. Now with Daisy, valuable materials can be pulled out more easily.
Samsung plans to use recycled materials in all of its new products by the year 2025. It also plans to reduce e-waste by improving product life cycles. Xiaomi is also setting up e-waste recycling platforms so that people can donate or sell their old electronics more easily.
【1】What did Lei Jun advise people to do?
A.To reduce the use of e-products.
B.To buy more smartphones.
C.To recycle more e-waste.
D.To improve China’s e-products.
【2】In which year did the amount of e-waste reach about 74.7 million tons?

23、Nowadays many museums around the world celebrate Slow Art Day in order to encourage their visitors to take their time and appreciate art more deeply.
In the world full of games, apps and funny videos, people spend less and less time on things. Research has shown that on average(平均来看), people spend less than one minute on one work of art. The Internet has millions of websites, so you might expect people to slow down when they’re in museums full of great works of art. But you are wrong.
In recent years, museums have been working to change the situation. Over 170 museums around the world celebrate Slow Art Day. They ask their visitors to spend at least 5 to 10 minutes looking at just one work of art.
Slow Art supporters(支持者)believe that when visitors spend more time looking at a work of art, they enjoy it more. By spending time, they are able to notice more things about the work of art. Studying a work of art for more time can also help people get a better understanding of the artist’s ideas and what the artist went through to create the work. Most museums taking part in Slow Art Day choose just a few works for their visitors. In their opinion, when people visit a museum with lots of works of art, they feel like they must see everything in the museum. They go around like they are checking things off of a list.

Before books came into being, people learned stories by heart and taught new ones to each other. A【1】 it was hard to remember them all. Things grew a little e【2】when writing was invented. The first writers made marks by pressing sticks into slabs(厚板) of soft clay. At first, the new marks were j【3】 used to make lists. But soon people wrote down laws, and then stories.
In ancient China, people there first carved words into bone or tortoiseshell. Later they used ink to write on strips of bamboo or silk. Then the Chinese invented paper. Paper-making didn’t come into the West u【4】 A. D.700. At last, it spread to Europe. H【5】, all these early books still had one big problem. If there were pictures, each page had to be painted by hand, one at a time. This made books rare and expensive—though also very beautiful.
To solve the problem, the Chinese carved a page of words and pictures into a block of wood or stone, Then they printed the entire page at once by spreading ink on the block and pressing it a【6】 the paper. This let them make many c【7】 of a book much more quickly.
Then a German invented movable, metal letters, so books became fast and easy to make. As there are more books. more people learn to read.
Once, books were so expensive that only the rich could buy. But with the improvement of people’s living c【8】 books have become a treasure everyone could enjoy. Today, computers let us read books anytime, anywhere while it seemed i【9】 in the past. You can even read a book on your phone. It is really a good way to r【10】.
