              (A)

    People don't like trash. Trash is smelly,dirty,ugly,broken and useless. That's why we throw it out. But everyone knows that trash influences our environment. It can pollute our land,water and air. So it's important to recycle our trash as much as possible.

   Some Americans were very interested in recycling and they were curious about what really happened to their tra^sh. So,what did they do? They became detectives and decided to “ Follow that trash!”

   They took some items out of their recycling bin and put electronic tags (标签) on them. The tags sent signals to a computer so people could follow their trash on its journey. They found that some trash only travelled a few kilometers but much of it went into landfills.

    Waste management companies in America think this detective work will be helpful to them. Dealing with waste is very expensive and this ^u trash tracking” will help them to become more useful. It will save their time and money.

However,the trash detectives say it's also important to reduce the amount of trash we produce. After all,if we produce less waste,we won' t  have to worry about where it goes.
