6.E-waste is dangerous
Now he has a new computer,Mike is wondering what happened to the old one.Well,after being broken down into small pieces,it was sent to China by ship.
Things like this happen every day.Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000kilograms of broken computers,TVs and phones.They had been sent to China though it's against the Chinese law.
Computers are filled with dangerous poisons like mercury (水银) and lead (铅).Every time an old computer is broken down,it needs to be dealt with safely.Usually computer parts are buried.(埋葬) Dealing with them is a problem.
Countries like Japan and the US send their e-waste to China.Guiyu in Guangdong Province has been called"the e-waste capital of the world".The city has to deal with 1.5million kilograms of e-waste each year.This earns $75million,but it comes at a cost.
Many of the poisons in e-waste find their way into the environment.Plastic is burned outdoors and acids (酸) are poured into rivers.Greenpeace,an environmental group,has said that it has found the earth and rivers of Guiyu to be badly polluted.
This year China will make its first law about waste recycling.The Chinese government wants the country to develop,but in a way that doesn't harm the environment and people's lives.
Money has been given by computer companies like Lenovo and Founder to help deal with computer waste.These companies will also be asked to take back their old computers.This is because they know best how to deal with them safely.
61.Is it easy to deal with computers when they become e-waste?No,it isn't.
62.Why has Guiyu been called"the e-waste capital of the world"?Because it has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year.
63.What does the Greenpeace think of the environment of Guiyu?It is badly polluted
64.In what way does the Chinese government want to develop the country?In a way that doesn't harm the environment and people's lives.
65.Who knows best how to deal with e-waste safely?Computer companies like Lenovo and Founder.

分析 本文讲述的是电子废弃物的问题.电子垃圾是危险的,一些国家如日本和美国把电子垃圾送到中国广东省贵屿镇,所以这里被称为"世界电子垃圾之都".绿色和平组织、环保组织,说它已经发现贵屿土地和河流被严重污染.今年中国将首次制定对废物回收利用的法律.中国政府希望国家发展,但需要用不危害环境和人民生活的方式.联想和方正这样的电脑公司为解决电子垃圾问题提供了资金,这些公司也会被要求收回他们的旧电脑,因为他们知道如何安全处理这些电脑.

11.Recently,a period of network video called the most beautiful blind man in Jinan picking up trash is popular on the Internet.The blind man in the network video is Bi Yukui.He picked up the rubbish and threw it into the dustbin with his wife's help and walked away slowly.Many people were moved by his behavior.
Why is the network video so popular?That is because a blind man who happened to find the rubbish can pick up.His behavior really made a lot of people feel ashamed.In the real life,we see some people throw the trash everywhere.Some people don't like walking a bit farther to put the rubbish into the dustbin.However they put it beside the road.They think it's not a big problem.
Is this really the case?They destroyed the environment.At the same time,they made the cleaners'work more difficult.Does it have nothing to do with them?No.If everyone throws rubbish like them,the city will probably become a big rubbish tip.Although dropping rubbish or picking up rubbish is a little thing in life,we can know a nation's civilization and moral cultivation from it.Every city is trying to set up a national healthy city.But some people think it is not worth doing these things like picking up the rubbish for them.In fact,this is not right.We should do some things around us.We can't throw rubbish here and there.We can't spit and smoke in public as well.
So we should learn from the blind man.It's everyone's duty to protect the environment.

51.Where did Bi Yukui come from?
In Jinan.
52.What did Bi Yukui do in the network video?
He picked up the rubbish and threw it into the dustbin with his wife's help and walk away slowly.
53.Why is the network video so popular?
Because a blind man who happened to find the rubbish can pick up.
54.If we throw the trash everywhere,who will have more difficulties?
The cleaners.
55.What can't we do around us according to the passage?
We can't throw rubbish here and there,we can't spit and smoke in public as well..
