What will you do when you have something difficult to do? I used to ask mother for help. But she always said, “Do it yourself, dear.” I was not glad at all. I thought she was the laziest mother in the world.

For example, one day, I decided to invite some friends to my home. My bedroom was not in order. Books were everywhere. And I didn’t make the bed. I asked my mother to help me to clean it, but she still said, “Do it yourself, dear.”

A new rubbish sorting system (垃圾分类系统) has been put into use in Fangchengyuan Community in Beijing. Local people not only sort their rubbish, but al so put QR codes (二维码) on it.

“When the rubbish is collected and the codes are seen, I will get reward points to exchange for small gifts and even some money,” one of the local people told reporters. “It’s really creative and encouraging.”

China produces quite a lot of rubbish every year. Much of the rubbish is buried (填埋) in soil or burned without being sorted. Landfills (填埋场) take up a lot of land and have a risk of polluting the soil and water nearby. And burning rubbish can produce harmful gases. Through rubbish sorting, we can reduce the use of landfills and air pollution.

What’s more, rubbish sorting saves resources, which could bring economic benefits (经济利益). For example, a ton of waste paper can be reused to make about 850 kg of paper, saving 17 trees and 50 percent of water. Because of their benefits, some countries have developed successfully sorting systems.

Japan has a strict and detailed system. when people throw away a water bottle, the cap, the wrapper (包装纸) and the bottle itself have to go into three different bins.

In Australia, every family is provided with three rubbish bins—the red lid (盖子) bin for “general waste” like food and plastic bags, the yellow lid bin for “recycling” like steel and glass, and the green lid bin for “green waste” such as grass and leaves. On the streets, the bins are printed with pictures of that are allowed inside. It makes recycling quite easy.

1.What will local people probably get if they put daily rubbish into the new system in Fangchengyuan Community?

A. A computer. B. A car

C. A lot of money. D. Some small gifts.

2.Which of the following is NOT the consequence (后果) of burying rubbish?

A. Polluting soil. B. Polluting water.

C. Taking up a lot of land. D. saving resources.

C. The green lid bin. D. The black lid bin.

Respecting older people is a tradition in China. There are many ways in which Chinese people express their respect. When an older person enters a room, everyone stands up. People are introduced from the oldest to the youngest. When we present a book to an older person, two hands are used. Young people always offer their seats to older people. on a crowded subway or bus.

In western countries, however, older people seldom think they are old. They are called “seniors” instead of “old people”. They’d rather do everything themselves. Even after retirement (退休), they take on hobbies, part-time jobs and new activities to keep their bodies working well.

Westerners respect their older people, too. Seniors usually take trains and buses for free. They are given discounts (折扣) in stores and restaurants.

But western seniors don’ t often live with their children- they live alone. For holidays, the family usually gather at the grandparents’ homes. A great smile and a warm hug for their parents are enough for children to show their respect.

1.When an older person enters a room, everyone ________ to express their respect.
