5、     When you enter a supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk between the shelves. You carry a shopping basket and put your food in it. You probably hear soft, low music as you walk between the shelves. __61   .

     Maybe you go to the meat department first. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department.   62   . Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.

     The department selling milk and milk products such as butter and milk powder is called the dairy department.   63   . One store has three different jars of low fat milk. One says “1 percent fat” on the jar. The second says “99 percent fat free.” The third says “LOW FAT” in big letters and “1 %” in small letters. As you can see, all the milk has the same amount of fat. The milk is all the same,    64   . Maybe the customers will buy the milk that costs the most.

       65   . The expensive meat says “Buy me!” as you walk by. The expensive jar says “Buy me! I have less fat.”

4、With fifteen years Britain and other nations should be well on with the building of huge industrial complexes for the recycling of waste . The word rubbish could lose its meaning because everything which goes into the dumps would be made into something useful . Even the most dangerous and unpleasant 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 rubber as well .

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 founders and rollers will break up everything that can be broken . Finally , the rubbish will pass under magnets (磁铁), which will remove the bits of iron and steel ; the rubber and plastic will then be sorted out in the final stage .

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

3、Dog owners now have a little help understanding their furry friends . A new device called Bow-Lingual “translates” dog barks into English , Korea or Japanese.

Bow-Lingual’s Japanese inventors spent much time and money analyzing dog barks . They found that dog noises can be broken down into six different emotions : happiness , sadness , frustration , anger , assertion and desire .

Part of the Bow-Lingual device hangs on the dog’s collar . The other part is a handle-held unit for the owner . When the dogs barks , the unit displays translated phrases .

Some people have scoffed at Bow-Lingual. “Who would pay US$ 120 to read a dog’s mind?” they ask .

But those who have purchased Bow-Lingual praise the device . Pet owner Keiko Egawa , of Japan , says it helps her empathize with her dog , Harry . “Before we go to the park , he always says he wants to play,” says Egawa , “and after a walk , he always says he is hungry.”
