    Have youheard of e-waste (电子垃圾), which can be produced every day? How do you deal with yourcomputers, MP4 players or mobile phones when they're broken or you want a newone?

    Mostpeople just throw them away. With the development of electronic industry (电子产业), e-waste pollution has becomea serious problem. According to the United Nations, in 2014, people around theworld produced 41.8 million tons (吨) of e—waste and only recycled 6.5 million tons. The US was the biggestwaster, producing 7.1 million tons. China came second, with 6 million tons.

    It'simportant to pay attention to e-waste. It can be either 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 themetals 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 environmentand people's health.

    Apple, forexample, now recycles people's used products in China when they are buying newones. The company will test and repair the used ones and sell them at lowerprices. 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 takecomputers and phones to companies to see if they offer recycling programs.

Cai Zongqi is a teacher from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. Having lived in the United States for nearly 40 years, he has spent around 30 years sharing his understanding of Chinese literature (文学) 1 his students.

In 2007, his book How to Read Chinese Poetrycame out. 2 book includes 143 famous Chinese poems. Cai said he couldn't find good teaching materials to perfectly explain 3 Chinese poems meant. With the help of the book, American students can understand Chinese poetry 4 than before.

The book 5 is so popular has been reprinted (再次印刷) time and again. Encouraged by this, Cai went on to write some more 6 including How to Read Chinese Prose (散文) .

Cai believes that reading Chinese poetry may help readers to look at 7 life from a new point of view and live a better life. Cai started the How to Read Chinese Poetry podcast (播客) in 2022 8 the beauty of Chinese poetry and literature to more people around the world. In the podcast, poems 9 aloud in English and Chinese with classical Chinese music in the background.

You may have heard about the Ig Nobel Prize(搞笑诺贝尔奖). It is given to scientists who  do interesting and sometimes silly studies. China has a similar prize called the Pineapple Science Awards. Zhejiang Science and Technology Museum in Hangzhou started the award in 2012. "Our understand science out of curiosity(好奇心) and bring out their love and respect for science," Xu Rui, from Zhejiang Science and Technology Museum, told Xinhua.

On Nov 11, 10 fun studies from around the world got the Pineapple Science Awards 2023.

Let's look at two of them.

Medical prize:

Why does plucking(拔) white hair lead to more white hair? Sun Qi and her team at New York University. New hair grows from follicles( 毛囊). In follicles,there lives a special kind of cell. These cells give color to our hair. They move around inside the follicles. To create colors like black and brown, they need to be at the bottom of hair follicles. After that, they go up to the top of the follicles and start moving toward the bottom to create color again as more hair grows. However, if we pluck our hair too often, the cells may get stuck at the top of the follicles. So they stop making colors, leading to more white hairs.

Mathematics prize: tossing a coin

Heads or tails? Tossing(抛) a coin is not as fair as you might think. A research team from the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands held a coin-tossing marathon. During the marathon, 48 teachers and students used 46 different currencies(货币), including Chinese coins. They spent 8 hours a day for 81 days tossing the coins. After 350,757 tosses, the team found that the side facing up when tossed is more likely to land facing up, at a ratio(比例) of about 51:49,

 阅读下面材料,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

When you are too sick or tired to eat, would you enjoy a bowl of ramen? It wouldn't matter how good the ramen is any more-you wouldn't enjoy it anyway. 

If the boss decides to give you another bowl of the world's best ramen and lets you invite someone to eat for free. But you do not have any loved ones to invite-not even a close friend. Your feelings of loneliness will make the ramen tasteless as well. 

Ramen is like the expensive things that many of us think we want in life. Nice cars, expensive houses and beautiful clothes. They are nice to have, but we shouldn't forget that the most important things in life are our health and our loved ones. We must first take good care of our health and our loved ones before we worry about having nice things. 

Being rich is not always about having more money; it can also come from the heart. Having a rich heart is about finding inner (内心的) peace. Once you have made it, you will be thankful for what you have and be less worried about what you don't have. Or all the riches in the world will not be able to fill your heart. 

The next time you are enjoying a bowl of delicious ramen with a loved one or a close friend, think about how lucky you are. When life brings you difficult problems and challenges, remember that these same people are there for you to help you get past difficult times.

① ChatGPT, a smart AI chatbot(聊天机器人)tool, has swept the education world in the past months. According to a US survey of more than 1, 000 students, over89 percent of them have used ChatGPT to help with their homework. 

② Some schools in the US, Australia and France have banned(禁止)the use of ChatGPT. In the US, for example, New York City public schools banned students and teachers from using ChatGPT on the district's networks. 

③The move comes out of worries that the tool could make it easier for students to cheat on homework. Some also worry that ChatGPT could be used to spread incorrect information. 

④Besides bans, teachers are making changes to their classes to avoid the use of ChatGPT. Some college teachers in the US try to include more speaking exams and handwritten papers instead of typed ones. 

⑤ However, not all educators say "no" to ChatGPT. Some Canadian universities are making laws on its use, for both students and teachers. They have no plans to completely ban the tool so far. 

⑥ Bhaskar Vira from the University of Cambridge, said that bans on AI software like ChatGPT are not sensible(明智的). "We have to know that AI is a tool people will use. What we need to do is to' adapt our learning, teaching and examinations'. That way, we can be honest while using of the tool".
