Within fifteen years Britain and other nations should be well on with the building of huge industrial complexes (½áºÏ)for the recycling of waste. The word "rubbish"  could lose its meaning because everything that goes into the dumps would be made into something useful. Even the most dangerous and un??pleasant wastes would provide energy if nothing else.

The latest project is to take a city of around half a million inhabitants and discover exactly what raw materials go into it and what go out. The aim is to find out how much of these raw materials could be provided if a plant for recycling waste were built just outside the city. This plant would recycle not only metal such as steel, lead and copper, but also paper and rub??ber.

Another new project is being set up to discover the best ways of sorting and separating the rubbish. When this project is complete, the rubbish will be processed like this: first, it will pass through sharp metal bars which will tear open the plastic bags in which rubbish is usually packed; then it will pass through a powerful fan to separate the lightest elements from the heavy solids; after that grounders and rollers break up everything that can be broken. Finally the rubbish will pass under magnets, which will remove the bits of iron and steel; the rubber and plastic will then be sorted out in the fi??nal stage.

The first full-scale giant recycling plants are, perhaps, fifteen years away. Indeed, with the growing cost of transpor??ting rubbish to more distant dumps, some big cities will be forced to build their own recycling plants before long.

1. The main purpose of the passage is ________.

A. to show us a future way of recycling wastes  B. to tell the importance of recycling wastes

C. to warn people the danger of some wastes    D. to introduce a new recycling plant

2. How many stages are there in the recycling process?

A. 3.                 B. 4.                C. 5.                           D. 6.

3. What is the main reason for big cities to build their own re??cycling plants?

A. To deal with wastes in a better way.  B. It¡¯s a good way to gain profits.

C. It¡¯s more economical than to dump wastes in some dis??tant places.

D. Energy can be got at a lower price. 

4. The first full-scale huge recycling plants ________.

A. have been in existence for 15 years    B. takes 15 years to build

C. can¡¯t be built until 15 years later        D. will remain functioning for 15 years

Is it wrong to use someone else¡¯s wireless (Wi-Fi) connection? Just recently, a man was arrested for doing just that. At that time, he was sitting in the street with a laptop(±ãЯʽµçÄÔ) and using an unsecured(ÎÞ°²È«±£»¤´ëÊ©) wireless connection to surf the Net. What do you think about this topic? Listen to the following different views on it.

For a start, if someone is using your Internet service or downloading, this will affect your speed of access or download limit. Also, it¡¯s bad for Internet service providers. They will suffer in the long run because fewer people will pay for an Internet service if they know they can get it for free. And finally, just imagine this: what if the person who is stealing your Internet connection is involved in an illegal activity? I think the police are totally right to arrest these criminals.

¡ª by Sandra Wilkins

Basically, if the person who paid for the service still has everything they paid for, what¡¯s the problem? It¡¯s just like using the light from streetlamps to read your book, or watching someone else¡¯s firework display. It¡¯s not stealing.

Also, if you leave your wireless connection unsecured, then it is your own fault(¹ý´í) if someone else uses it. Just as you wouldn¡¯t leave your front door unlocked, or your car door open, neither should you leave your wireless connection open. By leaving your wireless connection open, you are inviting people to use it. Securing your wireless connection is as easy as clicking a few settings on your router(·ÓÉÆ÷). And finally, haven¡¯t the police got more important crimes to solve? They¡¯re always saying how they haven¡¯t got the manpower to solve real issues. But this is just ridiculous(»ÄÃýµÄ).

¡ª by James Hoarley

1. Why was the man mentioned in the first paragraph arrested?

A£®For stealing someone¡¯s laptop.

B£®For surfing the Net in the street.

2. What does Sandra Wilkins think of people using others¡¯ Internet service?

A£®He thinks it is unacceptable.

B£®He thinks it is necessary sometimes.

D£®He thinks it is good for Internet service providers.

3. In James Hoarley¡¯s opinion, ______.

A£®Internet service should be improved.

B£®it is hard to secure one¡¯s wireless connection.

C£®using others¡¯ Internet service is not stealing at all.

D£®people should leave their wireless connection open.

4. What would be the best title for the passage?

A£®Wireless connection                     B£®Wireless worries

C£®Internet service                        D£®Internet users
