A. Find out recycling programs.

B. Set up your own recycling model.

C. Help to see its benefits.

D. Know what can be recycled.

E. Spread the word.

F. Get active, not frustrated.

Recycling is one means of ensuring that the items we’ve finished using get returned to the resources pool and either get turned into something else or are cleaned and reused. Recycling helps to save on additional energy. Recycling also reduces the amount of material and lessens pollution involved in waste disposal (处理). Once you know how to recycle, you’ll realize it’s not that hard and it soon becomes second habit.

61. ______

Many items are recyclable and over time, more items are added to the list of what can be recycled. Although recycling is dependent on your local conditions, as a general rule, most of the following items are recyclable but you do need to read the policies relevant in your area. Some items can’t be recycled for reasons ranging from complexity to hazards (危险). Although technology continues to change all the time (in which case, keep an eye on what new items can be recycled), there are still some items that cannot be recycled. Don’t put these into the recycling containers because they create problems and can potentially pollute the recyclables too.

62. ______

If you have the time, become a champion for recycling by informing community groups, school children, pre-school groups and other interested groups of the values of recycling and how people can make it easier to do. For activities with children and teens, there are good books and videos that you can use and consider bringing along people from the recycling industry to talk about their role and what they do.

63. ______

Recycling takes up space in the home, so it’s important to work out how to deal with this in a way that doesn’t impact living area space or create danger in any way. There are lots of great choices that you can either buy or make to keep recycling sorted and safe within your home before putting it out for collection. Some of your choices may depend on the preferences of the collector––in some areas, mixing recyclables is just fine, while in others, they’ll only collect separated recyclables or perhaps only collect different types of recyclables on different weeks. If mixing your recycling is not an option, you’ll need some extra sorting space.

64. ______

It is always easier to find holes in commitments to change our practices; it’s a natural human reaction. In the case of recycling, there will always be those who inform you ever so seriously that recycling uses too much energy, that recycled products have to travel far distances, etc. But it is far better to be devoted to getting on with it than to be crying about the uselessness of it all! Moreover, the benefits of recycling, particularly in the areas of job creation, pollution reduction and general community safety, outweigh its negativity.

65. ______

Recycling can turn somewhat frustrating if you’re in a city with very strict boundaries on what can and cannot be recycled due to lack of local facilities. And the more dangerous the waste, the harder it can be to recycle, although many facilities are cropping up to deal with batteries, electronics, and the like. However, it is important to find ways to work around such issues, that work for both you and your community. You can ask for more and better recycling facilities positively through a demonstration of community support, and it’s more likely that your area will get them and that the recycling will become easier for your community.

下面为五封《Crazy English》杂志的读者来信片段。请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中，为每封来信选取最佳的回信。选项有一项是多余项。

1.I am a reader of CR. Recently I found students translate some articles of CR. I appreciate your offering an opportunity to us beginners to practise using English. So I want to ask how they can obtain these articles and translate them for you, and what qualities you require. Thank you.

2.I love your Crazy English Reader magazine! It provides valuable data for work in our English teaching. My wife and I are teaching Conversational English so I’ve been giving you a bit of a plug at our middle school. I told the students to “get a copy”. It’s good stuff! Fantastic!

3.I’m one of Yao’s fans from Guangzhou. I have read some articles about Yao Ming in No. 7 Crazy English Reader. I want to know his correspondence address and the official website. Could you please tell me? Thank you very much indeed.

4.First of all, I must say thank you very much to all the CR Reader editors who gave us a really good English magazine. Secondly, I want to give you a piece of advice. In each passage, you gave us some new words with their Chinese translation. However, as far as my knowledge, I think you should give us not only the Chinese meaning but also the English meaning so as to know the words more accurately.

5.I’m an editor of the English Monthly of our school. I have a question, that is, how to say the position of the paper e.g. , 编辑; 责任编辑and so on. I hope you can help me to tell me the word in English. The more the better. Thank you so much! I love the book very much. Now I do this work. I need to study more information about this work. If you have time, please email me. Thank you.

A.  Thank you for your suggestion. We may try that in some future issues of CR. I think the best way to improve your reading vocabulary is to be able to guess the meaning of the word from the other words around it. Also, if you have an English dictionary, it is good to look up the words and them mark them down in a notebook and review them later on. Then if you really want to learn how to use the words, try using them in conversation or in writing. Hope this helps.

B.  The best way for you to learn the different positions in a newspaper or magazine is to get a copy of an all English magazine or newspaper and then copy down the different positions. There are also titles such as Managing Editor, reporter, Copy Editor, Photo Editor and Layout Editor. I hope this helps. If you have some more specific questions, you can send them to me and I’ll try to answer.

C.  The best way to reach Yao directly is through his home team, the Shanghai Sharks. You can write to him at 2570 Xietu Road, Shanghai. For more information on Yao, you can look at the sports section in sina. Com. I hope this helps. Another idea is that you can try to write to Yao while he is living and playing in Houston. You can try to reach Yao in the US at: Yao Ming Compaq Center 10 Houston, TX 77046.

D.  Thank you for being such a cheerful reader of CR. Yes, you’re right we made a mistake in the writing of that Chinese word. Each issue we try to read very carefully each article and its translation to make sure there are no mistakes, but unfortunately a few mistakes always get by. But you encourage us to keep improving, so thank you.

E.  Yes, we do have several students who help us translate some of the articles in our magazine. We contact these translators directly after interviewing their translation work. Afterwards we assign the articles to them for translation. If you are interested in being one of our translators you can send us some information about yourself and a sample of your translation work.

F.Thank you for helping us to promote CR. We’re glad it’s helpful to your students. We always try to include articles that reflect real life. It’s our hope that CR will not only improve students’ English but also open up a different worldview.
