21、ecycle”,this familiar environmentalist slogan tells us how to reduce the amount of rubbish that ends up in landfills and waterways.The concept is being used to deal with one possibly dangerous form of waste electronic junk(电子垃圾),such as old computers,cell phones,and televisions.But this process for

22、managing e-waste may be used in an unscrupulous way more often than not used,a recent report suggests.“A lot of these materials are being sent to developing nations under the excuse of reuse to bridge the digital divide,”said Richard Gutierrez,a policy researcher.One of the problems is that no one p

23、roves whether these old machines work before they hit the seaways.Because of this,the report says,e-waste is a growing problem in,and elsewhere in the developing world.Much of the waste ends up being thrown away along rivers and roads.Often its picked apart by poor people,who may face dangerous expo

24、sure to poisonous chemicals in the equipment.Businessmen also pay workers a little money to get back materials such as gold and copper.This low-tech recovery process could expose workers and the local environment to many dangerous materials used to build electronics.According to Gutierrez,this shado

25、w economy exists because the excuse of recycling and reusing electronics gives businessmen“a green passport”to ship waste around the globe.“Developing nations must take upon some of the responsibility themselves,”Gutierrez said.But,he added,“A greater portion of this responsibility should fall on th

26、e exporting state.”,for example,has become a dumping place for large amounts of e-waste.The nation is beginning to take action to stop the flow of dangerous materials across its borders.The Chinese government,after many years of denial is finally beginning to take the lead.56.The passage mainly tell

31、grouch（总在怨天尤人的人）,and everyone in town knew it.Kids knew not to go into his yard to pick a delicious apple,even off the ground,because old,they said,would come after you with his ball bullet gun.One Friday,12-year-old Janet was going to stay all night with her friend Amy.They had to walk by s house o

32、n the way to Amys house,but as they got close Janet saw him sitting on his front porch and suggested they cross over to the other side of the street.Like most of the children,she was scared of the old man because of the stories shed heard about him.Amy said not to worry,Mr.Dawson wouldnt hurt anyone

33、.When they got close enough,looked up with his usual frown,but when he saw it was Amy,a broad smile changed his entire face as he said,“Hello Miss Amy.I see youve got a little friend with you today.”Amy smiled back and told him Janet was staying overnight and they were going to listen to music and p

34、lay games.told them that sounded fun,and offered them each a fresh picked apple off his tree.When they got out of on earshot,Janet asked Amy,“Everyone says hes the meanest man in town.How come was he so nice to us?”Amy explained that when she first started walking past his house he wasnt very friend

35、ly and she was afraid of him,but she pretended he was wearing an invisible smile and so she always smiled back at him.It took a while,but one day he half-smiled back at her.After some more time,he started smiling real smiles and then started talking to her.An invisible smile?questioned Janet.Yes,ans

36、wered Amy,my grandma told me that if I pretended I wasnt afraid and pretended he was smiling an invisible smile at me and I smiled back at him,that sooner or later he would really smile.Grandma says smiles are contagious.However,its so easy to get caught up in everyday life that we forget how simple

37、 it can be to bring cheer to ourselves and others.If we remember what Amys grandma said,that everyone wears an invisible smile,we too will find that most people cant resist our smile after a while.60.Many kids didnt dare to go into Mr.Dawsons yard to pick a sweet apple because _.A.Mr.Dawson didnt li

38、ke kids B.they were afraid of being punished by Mr.Dawson C.Mr.Dawson was a bad-tempered old man D.their parents told them not to 61.Amy told Janet not to worry because she knew Mr.Dawson would _.A.invite them to his yard for fun B.give them each a fresh picked apple C.not aim at them with his gun D

41、 writing and thoughts.Despite this love of technology,I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices（设备）and truly communicate with others.On occasion,I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers.My goals for the class include a full discus

42、sion of historical themes and ideas.Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom,I have a rule no laptop,iPads,phones,etc.When students were told my rule in advance of the class,some of them were not happy.Most students assume tha

43、t my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology.Theres a bit of truth to that.Some students assume that I am anti-technology.Theres no truth in that at all.I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students.The real rea

44、son why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas.Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas.I want studen

45、ts to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas.I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the material and the class discussion.Ive been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the en

46、vironment that I create.Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge,they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.Im not saying that I wont ever change my mind about technology use in my history class,but until I hear a really good reason for the
