    E-waste is fast becoming a serious problem around the world. This report will examine this problem and provide some possible ways to solve it.

We live in a society that is producing and using electronics(电子产品) all the time. It is often cheaper to buy new products than to repair old ones. Also, through clever advertising, companies always encourage people to change their old TVs, mobile phones and computers for the latest models. E-waste is created when we throw away old ones. In the EU alone, about 8,700,000 tons of e-waste is produced each year. Sadly, just over 1,000,000 tons is recycled.

    Burying(填埋) e-waste or burning it cause serious problems for the environment. Electronics have dangerous things in them. These things can then get into the ground or pollute the air when they are burnt.

    In recent years,   ▲  . However, their plans are not always managed properly. Sometimes electronics are just sent to poor countries such as Ghana. Here they are often burnt in public areas, which is very bad for people's health. Setting up recycling centers is a good way to solve this problem. E-cycling centers could recycle the parts that can be reused and deal with the rest properly.

    Another way is to make producers responsible(负责任) for their used products. This means that producers must take back old products which are no longer wanted. They should then make sure they are properly recycled or reused.

    As for us, we should try to cut down on e-waste. Change electronics only when we have to. And don't buy a product just to have the latest model.

    E-waste is a serious problem in the modern world. Both producers and users must take actions and try to keep it to the smallest amount.

When cold winter days come, nothing is better than a nice pot meal to warm and cheer you up.

With a long history, hot pot is still the most popular kind of food in China, according to a survey by the consumer review (消费者评论) website Dianping.com. There are about 350,000 hot pot restaurants around the country, the largest number of all kinds of restaurants.

When enjoying a hot pot meal, people sit around a table and eat delicious food from a steaming pot. There are many kinds of soup bases to choose (选择) from: spicy, mushroom and tomato. Usually a hot pot has two parts inside. One side is spicy, while the other side is not so spicy. So everyone can choose what they like. They put meat, seafood, vegetables, tofu and bean noodles in the soup to boil. Meat, especially beef, is often cut as thin as paper, so it should not be cooked too long. Otherwise, it will lose its taste. You needn't have great cooking skills to enjoy hot pot, either. When the food is ready, take it out and put it in different sauces to give it a special flavor (品味). Some also drink the soup from the pot.

 ▲ . While the pot cooks, people talk and drink. Nowadays, hot pot is more than food but a part of our Chinese life. Unlike some meals, it can make everyone feel relaxed. No wonder hot pot restaurants have become a favourite place to get together for friends and family in China.
