The 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo has been put off because of the COVID-19. To welcome the great event, Japan has made 5, 000 medals for the winners. But these Olympic medals are very special. They are all made out of recycled electronic devices(电子设备).

One goal of the Tokyo Olympics is to avoid using too many natural resources, so that the games are environmentally friendly. As part of this goal, the organizers decided to make all of the Olympic medals out of metals recycled from old electronic devices.

You might not know it, but almost all the electronic devices are made with small quantities of precious metals (贵金属), like gold and silver. But collecting enough of these metals to make 5, 000 medals was a huge challenge. That's because the quantity of metals in each device is tiny. It would take about 20,000 cell phones to get just 1 kilogram of gold.

Beginning in April 2017, organizers placed collection boxes around the country, and asked people to turn in their old electronic devices for the Olympic medals. Soon people began to fill up the boxes, turning in smartphones, digital cameras, and laptops. At first, the collection work went slowly, but soon more and more areas began to turn in electronic devices, And 1,621 local governments also helped with the collection work. The Japanese mobile phone company NTT Docomo collected 6.21 million used cell phones. In all, around 71,667, 600 kilograms of electronic devices were collected.

Then came the job of breaking those phones down into smaller pieces. This is a tricky(棘手) job. It is also likely to cause danger, because some of the metals and other things that go into electronic devices aren’t safe for people to touch or breathe. That's why it's not a good idea to try something like this at home. Once the devices were broken down, the metals had to be carefully separated out.

On July 24, 2019, the design for the awards was announced. And by the end of March this year, the organizers had reached their goal.

2.What is the main purpose of Paragraph 4?

The iPhone has been called a magical product because of its success over the years. However, now the iPhone seems to have lost its attraction.

Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, said in a recent letter that the company expected a revenue（收入）of $84 billion for the first fiscal quarter（财政季度）of 2019. It was much lower than the earliest expectation of between $89 billion and $93 billion. That was the first time that Apple had seen its revenue expectation fall in almost twenty years.

Cook explained that the fall was mainly because of the less growing need in China.

However, people believe that Apple itself is mainly responsible（有责任的）for the fall. Gene Munster told CNN that “one-third of the problem” comes from the company’s move to suddenly increase the price.

This has made people less willing to change the latest iPhones. For example, iPhone Xs Max, one of the company’s latest smartphones, costs $1450 in the US, and costs much more in other countries, including many developing countries, reported Forbes.

Apple has also failed to introduce features that excite people in a forward-thinking technology market, reported CNBC.

Meanwhile, Apple also faces challenges from smartphone makers in China such as Huawei and Xiaomi, which have introduced less expensive but still quality smartphones.

For example, in 2018, Huawei introduced a triple-lens camera（三摄镜头）on its P20 Pro. The triple-lens camera is a popular feature that the iPhone doesn’t have, according to CNBC.

“In the past few years, the technology in Apple’s phones has not had any big improvements, while the technology in smartphones made in China has got better and better ,” Feng Yin, a 32-year-old engineer in China, told The New York Times. “The difference is getting smaller.”
