Within fifteen years Britain and other nations should be well on with the building of huge industrial complexes (结合)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.

Is veg food healthier than non-veg food? I feel this is a very common topic that people speak on.Please give me your opinions on this topic.

So far as veg food is concerned, it is also proved to be a healthy and nutritious diet, but has very few items which can provide us with proteins, but if you see non-veg food like eggs, chicken, and many more, such foods have a large content of proteins in them.
Sai

Man basically is herbivorous(食草的). If we look at the animal kingdom
We can see that all the herbivorous animals have the similar dental(牙齿的)
structure, which clearly shows that the human being also ought to be vegetarian
by birth. It is only the living conditions that make man carnivorous(食肉的).
The vegetarian foods are easily digestible.
Santos

Non-veg food items are better than veg items. A healthy person requires complete diet and veg+ meat makes the diet complete. The only caution that needs to be taken is not to have non-veg items on a daily basis. Once in a week or couple of weeks will be best.

When we eat non-veg, we are all veg by nature. The chicken that we eat feeds on grains, the mutton that we eat feeds on grass, and the fish that we eat feeds on simple plants. So non-veg food by logic(逻辑)is better and suited for hauman beings.

Non-veg food is equally important in our diet as it helps in many ways, especially fish and other seafood as fish contains omega 3 which makes our immune system(免疫系统)stronger. Do you know that most of the veg food put together does not contain as much omega 3 as fish alone contains!
68.According to Rao, what is the problem with veg food?
A.It damages our immune system.
B.It has few nutrients.
C.It contains too much omega 3.
D.It is lacking in protein.
69.In the opinion of Sai, humans are born vegetarian because humans______.
A.have the same teeth structure as plant-eating animals
B.believe that veg foods are good for their teeth
C.belong to the plant-eating animal family
D.can adapt to the living conditions like plant-eating animals
70.What advice is given by Santos?
A.To have a saily veg+ meat diet.
B.Not to eat non-veg food every day.
C.To eat digestible food every day.
D.Not to eat food without protein.

阅读表达
    阅读下面的短文,根据短文后的要求答题(请注意问题后的词数要求)
     An American friend of mine who was high up in a big corporation had worked out a way of handling
a flood of e-mails before most of us had even heard of the concept. If any information he was sent was
vital enough, his lack of response would ensure the sender rang him up. If the sender wasn't important
enough to have his private number, the communication couldn't be that important, My friend is now even
more senior in the same company, so the strategy must work.    
     Almost every week now, there seems to be a report suggesting that we are all being driven crazy by
the bother of e-mail. If this is the case, it's only because we haven't devel-oped an appropriate
discrimination in dealing with it.      
              Firstly, you junk anything with an exclamation mark or a string of capital letters,or from any
address you don't recognize or feel confident about.    
     Secondly, e-mails don't all have to be answered. Because e-mailing is so easy, there's a tendency for
correspondence to carry on for ever, but it is permissible to stop an endless dis-cussion or to accept a
point of information sent by a colleague without acknowledging it.    
     Thirdly, a reply e-mail doesn't have to be the samelength as the original. We all have e-mail pals who
send long, chatty e-mails, which are nice to receive, but who then expect an equally long reply. Then
charm of e-mail can consist in the simple, incomplete sentence, totally regardless of the format of the
letter sent by post. You are perfectly within the bounds of politeness in responding to a marathon e-mail
with a brief reply.
    
1. Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one?      
The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort out e-mails.      
________________________________________________________      
________________________________________________________    
2. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with a proper sentence.(within 10 words)        
______________________________________________________    
3. What advice is given in the last paragraph?  (within l0 words)        
______________________________________________________    
4. For what purpose does the author mention his American friend in Paragraph l? (within 10 words)       
 ______________________________________________________    
5. Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.        
_____________________________________________________
