Every year, Americans throw away 50billion food anddrink cans, 27billion glass bottles and jars, and 65billion cancovers. More than 30%of our waste is packaging materials.Where does it all go? Some 85%of our garbage is sent to adump,or a landfill, where h can take from 100to 400years forthings like cloth and aluminum 铝to decompose . Glasshas been found in perfect condition after 4,000years in theearth!We are quickly running out of space. It’s time to learn thethree R’s of the environment reduce, reuse,and recycle.

Reducing the amount of waste you produce is the best wayto help the environment. For example you can buyproducts that don’t have a lot of packaging. You can alsolook for things that are packed in materials that don’trequire a lot of energy or resources to produce. Instead of buying something you’re not going to use very often, borrowit from someone you know. Save energy by turning off lightsthat you are8not using.

Instead of throwing things away,try to find ways to usethem again! Bring cloth bags to the store with you instead oftaking home new paper or plastic bags. You can use thesebags again and again. Plasticcontainers and reusable lunch bags are great ways to takeyour lunch to school without creating waste. Use all writingpaper on both sides.

In some towns you can leave your recyclables in binsoutside your homeland a truck will come and collect themregularly. Other towns have recycling centers where you candrop off the materials you’ve collected. Things like paperand plastic grocery bags, plastic and aluminum cans andbottles can often be brought to the grocery store forrecycling.

Questions 24to 27are based on the following passage.

I have heard of the story of the world famous opera singerTina Kiberg. As a child, Tina was a violinist and spent herfree time practicing and practicing.

She gave up the violin, took upsinging and became a leading international opera singer. Hercourage to give up is what allowed her to become a worldfamous opera singer. Now try to guess what these somewhatsuccessful people have in common-Larry Page,Tiger Woods,John McEnroe and John Steinbeck. Yes, they alldropped out of Stanford. Look at many other successfulpeople and I bet their past is also filled with things they didat one time and then gave up. There are a number ofcognitive(认知的processes that make it hard for us to leaveour present situation and move ) on to somethingnew—evenwhen we feel miserable with the present situation.We think “I’veinvested so much in this already. If I quit,allwill have been wasted. M Once we have something,we hateto lose it. Things we don’thave yet don’tcarry the samevalue. These cognitive thoughts might help explain whypeople stay stuck in bad jobs, bad marriages, unhappyfriendship,etc.
