阅读理解

    When your pen is broken, the battery in your toy runs out, or you have some leftover food, what do you do with these things? You will probably throw them all into one trashbin. But actually, all of these pieces of trash need to be sorted (分类) separately.

    Garbage sorting is a big problem worldwide. In recent years, some Chinese cities have been working hard on it.

    Shanghai has worked with Alipay to create a "green account (账户)" service for its residents (居民). Account holders get points by correctly sorting their garbage. Through the Alipay app, they can exchange the points for milk, phone cards and other products. The city is asking all of its residents to sort their garbage into four groups: wet, recyclable (可回收的), harmful and dry.

    Wet waste is also known as household waste. "They are things you don't want but that pigs can eat," Guangzhou Daily explained.

    Paper, metal (金属), glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste.

    Harmful waste includes things like medicine, batteries and fluorescent bulbs (荧光灯泡).

    Finally, any waste that's not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the "dry waste" bin.

    Many other Chinese cities are also using this method to sort their garbage. For example, Shenzhen has been sorting its garbage into the same four groups since 2012. Students there also receive waste-sorting guidebooks that they must study.

    China is improving its waste-sorting efforts. There is still a long way to go. But it's never too late to learn how to sort your trash properly and protect the environment.

    If you don't sort your garbage, all of it will go to a landfill (垃圾填埋场) and be buried together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees. The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries, can pollute the soil and water. Other pieces of garbage, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled.

(1)、How is Shanghai encouraging people to sort their garbage?
A、Creating a "green account" service with the help of Alipay. B、Paying people to sort their trash correctly. C、Allowing people to exchange garbage with each other. D、Providing its residents with guidebooks to help them.
(2)、Which of the following would be classified as wet waste?
A、Batteries. B、Glasses. C、Leftover food. D、Medicine.
(3)、What do we know about garbage sorting in China?
A、It started its garbage sorting system in 2012. B、There is still a lot of work to be done in this area. C、Students have to take waste-sorting classes in school. D、Landfills are a common method of getting rid of garbage.

Some people ski(滑雪) down mountains. Others climb huge rocks. Why do people enjoy risky(有危险的) activities like these?

Some people take risks simply because it makes them feel good. Psychologists(心理学家) say that this kind of explorers(探险者) are always looking for change and excitement. When people do something risky, a chemical(化学物质) in the brain creates a pleasant feeling. They love this feeling and want to experience it more.

Other people don't take risks for the feeling of excitement but to achieve a goal. Mike Fay went on a dangerous 2,000-mile special journey in central Africa. He worked to help save the wildlife there. Fay's journey helped create 13national parks.

For other people, such as extreme athletes (极限运动员), taking risks is part of their job. Psychologists say extreme athletes see the world differently. Not like most people, extreme athletes feel in control in dangerous situations. The danger can even help them. For example, skier Daron Rahlves says that being afraid makes him try harder to succeed.

Most of us are not extreme athletes or explorers. However, we still take risks in our lives. Some of us take social risks, such as speaking in front of a large group of people. Sometimes, we take financial risks, such as buying a house. And sometimes we take career risks, such as leaving a job or starting a business. Most people take risks in some areas of life, but not in others. What kind of risk-taker are you?

A farmer was working when he heard a loud sound. He left his work at once and ran towards it. When the farmer reached there, he found a little boy in a bog (沼泽) crying out of fear. The farmer tried hard and successfully got the child out. 

The next day, a well-dressed man came to the farmer's house. He told the farmer that he was the father of the boy saved by him yesterday. He wanted to give him a large amount of money in return, but the farmer refused to accept money for saving the child. At that moment, a little boy came to the door. The rich man asked, "Is this child your son?" The farmer proudly replied, "Yes, he is my son." Then, the rich man offered to help his child in his studies, saying, "I will provide him with the same education as I give my own son. If he is anything like his father, he will grow to be a noble man." The farmer agreed, and his son was educated in the best schools until he finished his studies at St. Mary's Hospital Medical School. 

Do you know who the son of the poor farmer is? He is the Scottish scientist Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of penicillin (青霉素). 

Years passed, and the rich man fell seriously ill. A doctor saved his life. This doctor was Alexander Fleming. This rich man is Lord Randolph Churchill and his son saved by the farmer is Sir Winston Churchill (丘吉尔), Prime Minister of the United Kingdom during World War II.

Lei Jun was born on December 16th, 1969 in Xiantao, Hubei. His parents are both villagers. Lei Jun got a very ordinary(普通的)start in his life and no one would think he would write his life into a great story of success(成功).

He was the best science student in Xiantao City. When he was18, he went into the computer science department in Wuhan University. Only after two years, he finished his study with good grades.

In 1992, Lei Jun joined Kingsoft and worked there for 16 years. Later, Lei Jun felt that he didn't do what he would like to do and made up his mind(下决心)to set up a great company. So in April, 2010, Xiaomi came out. However, Xiaomi is going on a very difficult road. Lei Jun went through so many different worlds and climbed up so many high mountains. Xiaomi SU7 was another high mountain he climbed up to.

The hard-working Lei Jun is the idol(偶像)of many people because he lets us see that study can really make our life different.From an ordinary family,he does something good and practical(实际的)for ordinary people. Lei Jun always remembers his words: "Science and technology should not be something high up in the air.They must serve(服务)everyone." We are looking forward to seeing him climbing over another higher mountain.

A big rock fell through the house of Ruth Hamilton, when she was sleeping. 

Luckily, she was not hurt. "I jumped out of bed and turned on the lights. I didn' t know what else to do, so I called 911, " Hamilton, from Canada, told CBC. It turns out that the rock is a meteorite(陨石). It came from the outer space! Hamilton said she would keep the rock. 

 So what is a meteorite? You may have seen shooting stars at night. They are flying rocks in space. Earth's gravity(重力) catches them and lets them fall. Most of them burn up in the sky. But some fall down on Earth. They are called meteorites. Every year, more than 30, 000 meteorites larger than a strawberry fall down on Earth, according to science website DK Find Out. 

UK's Natural History Museum says that"the chances(概率) of a meteorite falling are the same everywhere on the Earth. " This means most meteorites end up in the seas. Few people can see them. But still, we have collected 50, 000 meteorites around the world so far. 

 Following are more information about the meteorite:

●A meteorite will become less than 5% of its size when it falls down on Earth. 

●Every 180 years, a meteorite hits a human being, according to a 1985 study by Nature. 

 You may ask: can we touch a meteorite? Does it have radiation(辐射)? Don't worry. The radiation is not strong. Nothing will happen to your body.
