I take the train into work every morning from a train station near my house. I can get to the station quite  31  because there’s a short cut(捷径) to the station. But in the summer, it can get quite smelly because of all the  32 . So I always try to  33  through it. Today I was trying to do so as usual when something made me stop for a moment. I saw the most beautiful  34  by an old woman walking in front of me with the help of a white stick.
She was short and  35  and had white hair. She was walking  36  as each step took some effort. I hadn’t specially noticed her at first, until she stopped near a rubbish bin.
She slowly placed her walking stick   37  the rubbish bin. Then she leaned(倾斜) on it with her right hand. She bent down and reached for the rubbish. She clearly found it difficult and it took her a while. She   38  some rubbish with her left hand and slowly straightened herself up again. All the while she used the rubbish bin to   39  herself. She threw the rubbish inside the bin and then  40  walking. It all took her great effort.
There’s so much rubbish and no one ever does  41  about it. I was moved to see this old woman make such a great effort to keep even a small part of it clean! I haven’t been able to   42  thinking about that all day.
I want to follow her example. I’ve decided to pick up rubbish off the ground if I meet from now on. I hope people will do the same as I do.

Besides giving off gases and dusts into the air, humans produce waste that is poured on the environment. Often, this waste produced by major industries and people is harmful to both nature and human life.

One of the main causes of the large amount of dangerous waste is that people do not realize how large a problem it is. Because it can be simply removed and sent to a landfill（废渣填埋场）, the problem is often believed to end there. In addition, industries have often shown an unwillingness to find ways to deal with dangerous waste because of the related expenses. Many industries and governments build simple landfills to store waste, and often just pour waste chemicals into nearby bodies of water. Often, chemicals used for industrial production cause dangerous forms of waste. The amount of these chemicals has increased greatly in the past, but it is often difficult and expensive to get rid of these chemicals or to store them in a way safe to human life and the environment.

Every year, major health problems result from dangerous waste. Sadly, it is often only after someone has died or become seriously ill that governments will take measures to reduce levels of harmful waste.

Some governments have realized how serious the dangerous waste problem is and are now trying to settle this problem. They are also trying to limit the amount of waste industries are allowed to produce.

Not only governments but ordinary people as well must work together to solve the problem. They can choose not to buy those products which require the production of dangerous waste, and produce less harmful waste themselves. Many scientists think that waste production can be cut. The waste can be reduced by at least one third using existing technologies and methods.
