We’re drowning in plastic. If you want to reduce your own contribution to the plastic pollution problem, recycling might seem like an easy solution.
But what happens after you clean out those plastic containers and pour them into a recycling bin? Unfortunately, the outcome isn’t as rosy as many people think; recycling is unlikely to give plastic to-go containers new life. “Of all the waste produced in 2017, only 8.4% of it eventually got recycled. It’s not that consumers aren’t motivated to recycle or that they don’t have ready access to recycling programs; the United States simply doesn’t have the proper facilities (设施),” said John Hocevar, a marine biologist with Greenpeace USA.
A recent report surveyed the United States’ 367 materials recovery facilities—the facilities that sort our recycling—and found only plastic bottles were regularly recycled. The fate of most other types of plastic such as packaging usually ends up being buried or burnt.
Not all plastic is created equal. If you turn over a transparent plastic bottle, like those used to hold water, you’ll notice a number “1” inside a triangular recycling symbol. Non-transparent jugs, like the kind that hold milk, get a “2”. At materials recovery facilities, or MRF’s, plastics get sorted based on these numbers, which indicate how recyclable they are.
Numbers 1 and 2 are relatively recyclable. Recycling gets more difficult with higher numbers, called “mixed plastic”. This waste makes up around 69% of all the plastic we use. It’s much more expensive to process than numbers 1 and 2.
So what the United States needs is facilities equipped to process other kinds of plastic. But Hocevar came up with a different solution: “The really simple answer is that we have to stop making so much throwaway plastic.”
That said, is recycling worth it? For bottles labeled (贴标签) “1” or “2”, the answer is “yes”. There’s also a growing market for plastics labeled “5”. For other numbers, Hocevar’s answer was simple: a resounding (响亮的) “no” on numbers 3, 4, 6 and 7.
1.Which problem is the USA facing according to the text?
A.People don’t know the best way to recycle.
B.Ready recycling programs are not accessible.
C.People lack awareness about plastic recycling.
D.There isn’t suitable equipment for plastic recycling.
2.What may John Hocevar think of plastic recycling in the USA?
A.Productive. B.Promising.
C.Unsatisfying. D.Controversial.
3.What information can the numbers on plastic bottles convey?
A.Whether it is easy to recycle them.
B.The recycling technology they need.
C.They places where they were produced.
D.Which dustbin we should put them into.
4.What should we do with plastic according to Hocevar?
A.Give up the use of plastic.
B.Develop more cheaper facilities.
C.Only recycle plastics labeled 1 to 5.
D.Reduce the production of mixed plastic.

Thanks to the Web, We’re Alone Together and Loving it
There's a professor, Barry Wellman, at the University of Toronto in Canada who has come up with a term to describe the way a lot of us North Americans interact these days. And now a big research study confirms it.
Barry Wellman's term is "networked individualism." It's not the easiest concept to grasp. In fact, the words seem to contradict each other. How can we be individualistic and networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.
Here's what he means. Until the Internet and e-mail came along, our social networks involved flesh-and-blood relatives, friends, neighbors, and colleagues at work. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.
But the latest study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project confirms that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced a great deal of social interchange. A lot of folks Pew talked with say that's a good thing, because of concerns that the Internet was turning us into hermits who shut out other people in favor of a make-believe world on flickering computer screens.
To the contrary, the Pew study discovered the Internet has put us in touch with more real people than we'd have ever imagined. Helpful people, too. We're turning to an ever-growing list of cyber friends for advice on careers, medical crises, child-rearing, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told the Pew that the Internet plays an important or crucial role in helping them deal with major life decisions.
So we networked individuals are pretty tricky: We're keeping more to ourselves, while at the same time reaching out to more people, all with just the click of a computer mouse!
1.The Pew study was conducted in _____.
A.The United States | B.Canada |
C.The U.S. and Canada | D.Europe |
2.Which of the following has happened since the invention of the Internet and email?
A.People are talking on the phone more than ever. |
B.Interaction through the computer has replaced a lot of person to person interaction. |
C.Americans are turning into hermits. |
D.Sixty million Americans have bought computers. |
3.Which of the following was NOT one of the discoveries of the Pew study?
A.The Internet has put us in touch with more people than expected. |
B.People use the Internet to get advice on careers, medical problems, and other questions. |
C.For many Americans, the Internet plays an important role in helping them make important decisions. |
D.“Internet addiction” is a growing problem among people who use computers. |
4.What does the bolded words “reach out” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Connect with. | B.Play a trick. | C.Make a decision. | D.Stay alone. |
