Have you heard of e-waste(电子垃圾), which can be produced every day? How do you deal with your computers, MP4 players and mobile phones when they're broken or you want a new one?

Most people just throw them away.With the development of electronic industry(电子产业),e-waste pollution has become a serious problem.According to the United Nations, in , people around the world produced 41.8 million tons(吨) of e-waste and only recycled 6.5 million tons.The US was the biggest waster, producing 7.1 million tons.China came 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 deal with it.E-waste is a valuable urban mine(城市矿藏).The value of the metals, like gold and silver in the waste around the world, is surprising.And the metals can be reused.But if people throw them away, the toxic chemicals(有毒化学物质) can get into the earth or air, affecting the environment and people's health.

Some companies now recycle people's used products when they are buying new ones.These companies will test and repair the used ones and sell them at a lower price.To help reduce e-waste, we can buy longer lasting electronic products.If you have unwanted electronics, find a new home for them.You can also take computers and phones to see if companies offer recycling programs.

(  )21.The following can become e-waste EXCEPT________.

A.computers B.mobile phones

C.plastic bags D.MP4 players

(  )22.Which country produced the second most e-waste in according to the United Nations?

C.改善 D.影响

(  )24.We can ________ to reduce e-waste.

A.sell the electronics to companies

B.buy longer lasting electronic products

C.keep the unwanted electronics in our bedrooms

D.throw away the unwanted electronics

(  )25.The main purpose of this passage is to ________.

A.prove that e-waste is not useful

B.encourage people to buy more electronic products

C.advise people to deal with e-waste properly to reduce pollution

D.advise people to sell the unwanted electronics

Every August on the island of Heimaey,off the southern coast of Iceland,young people often take a walk along the streets all the night.What's more,their parents allow them to stay out.Why?The children of Heimaey are going to save young puffins—small black-and-white seabirds.

The cliffs(悬崖) above the town are home to a large group of puffins.The birds dig holes all around the cliffs.These holes are their homes.Their young stay in the holes for about seven weeks.Then they begin to leave.Some move slowly on their undeveloped wings and feet down to the northern Atlantic Ocean that goes round Heimaey.There,they swim,which they can do naturally,and learn to dive for fish.Others,however,may lose their way at night and find themselves in the town instead.On the ground,the young seabirds are in trouble.Because their wings are not fully developed,they cannot take off quickly to sea and safety.The birds then become a good meal for cats and other animals.

For many years,islanders have helped the young puffins.Early at night in late August,children carrying thick paper boxes and lights hurry to the seashore to catch puffins.They spend most of the night running after the birds.They put the birds they've caught in boxes and take good care of them.

The next morning the children take the puffins to the ocean and set them free.The birds will live at sea until they are at least two years old.Then they will return to the cliffs to build homes of their own for their families.

Will the children of Heimaey always come to save puffins? “Yes,”answer the boys. “We look forward to it.The best time for us is setting the birds free.”

(  )26.Every August children of Heimaey are allowed to stay out all night to ________.

A.catch puffins and take them home B.free puffins from danger

C.drive puffins away D.play at the sea

(  )27.The young seabirds that lose their way and find themselves in the town are in danger of ________.

A.being killed by hunters B.being driven away from the town

C.being killed by cars D.being killed by animals

(  )28.The children put the seabirds in boxes and ________.

A.look after them very carefully for several days and then set them free

B.set them free when they grow bigger and can take off to sea and safety

C.they don't set the birds free until the next morning

D.bring them home to keep as pets

(  )29.The children look forward to August because ________.

A.they enjoy playing the game of running after seabirds

B.it's time for them to go out at night to save puffins

C.it's time for the children to play with the birds

Eleven countries are building a great wall of trees across Africa.It is called the Great Green Wall.The aim is to bring life to the dry lands and help to fight the bad environment.

The wall is 8, 000 kilometers long and 15 kilometers wide.It covers from Senegal in the west to Djibouti in the east, on the south of the Sahara Desert(撒哈拉沙漠).So far, Senegal has made the best progress by planting about 11,000,000 trees.

Many years ago, there were few trees in that area and the winds used to be very strong.It was harmful to the fields.Also, there was little rain, so few plants could grow and many people went hungry.Since the tree planting project started, the trees have provided food for the local people and increased the wetness (湿度) of the air.Little by little, there appeared green fields for people to grow plants.

The project which began in 2007 is supposed to cost a total of 8, 000, 000, 000 dollars.Many countries are trying their best to help to continue the planting.So we will be able to see the whole green wall across Africa in the near future!
