C.The benefit of e-waste recycling
D.The technologies of e-waste recycling
E.The importance of recycling e-waste
F.Modern technology bringing convenience and e-waste
61.FModern technology does bring us much convenience,from Wi-Fi (无线网络) enabled cell phones and ever-smaller laptop computers that make our entire lives easy to energy-efficient washers that use half the power and time to complete their tasks. However,these new toys and equipment finally become electronic waste ( e-waste) once they are out of use.
62.B
E-waste includes everything from empty printer ink containers to broken refrigerators. As people buy new items to replace aging electronics or make updates,more electronic waste comes into being. In some cases,such as 2009's switch from analog (模糊) to digital television broadcasting in the United States,changes in technology are so great that old equipment may not even work at all with new systems.
63.EThere are many reasons why it is important to recycle electronic waste. Much of the material used to construct electronics,including metal and plastic parts,can be recycled into new items at a discount of the cost and energy use needed to create things from new raw materials. Additionally,many electronics contain poisonous substances that are harmful to the environment and could be deadly if they go into an area's groundwater. When properly recycled,they can be reused and will not do harm to the environment. Because of the environment concerns,many areas require by law that electronic waste be properly recycled.
64.AThe availability of e-waste recycling programs varies from place to place. In some areas,collections are held once or twice a year as a means of dealing with e-waste as well as used engine oil or other waste that is harmful to the environment,There are also some good alternatives to recycling your e-waste. Any items that are in working condition can be given to friends or donated to charities like Goodwill or The Salivation Army,who rely heavily on donations. Freecycling,or passing on your unwanted items to those in need of them,is also a means of finding new homes for used items.
65.C E-waste recycling helps protect the environment by reducing the amount of poisonous materials placed in landfills (废物填埋场) and saving recyclable parts to save energy and other resources. Recycling is a way of life. Once we have made that choice to carry out all the steps of recycling in our daily lives,and stick to that choice every single day,recycling becomes second nature to us.
