Some of you might not be able to answer this question. However, it's actually quite important to know how to sort your waste. Not knowing how to sort waste can make it harder to save energy and protect the environment.

If you don’t sort your waste, all of it will go to a landfill and be buried(埋) together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could have been used for planting trees or crops. The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries, can pollute the soil and groundwater. Other pieces of waste, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make other things if they are properly recycled.

With this in mind, many cities in China have been running waste-sorting campaigns (活动）in recent years. For example, Shanghai announced in July that within three years, all of its residents (居民）should sort their waste into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry.

“Wet” waste is also known as household waste. “They are things you don't want but that pigs can eat,”Guangzhou Daily explained. Paper, metal, glass and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste.

Harmful waste includes things like medicine, batteries and fluorescent bulbs. Finally, any waste that's not wet, recyclable or harmful will go in the“dry waste”bin.

Many other Chinese cities, including Shenzhen, plan to use this method to sort their garbage. Now that you know this, perhaps you can do your part to protect the environment and encourage others to sort their waste.

Black Friday is the Friday after Thanksgiving. This year it will【3】(落) on Nov.27. It's the start of the holiday shopping【4】(季) and most people don't have to go to work that day. So people start to think about what【5】(礼物) they want to buy for Christmas.

The name Black Friday comes from ink. A long time ago, shops used ink for book keeping all their sales. So when there was a lot of black ink on the page that meant the business sold a lot.

While Single's Day is usually for online shopping, a lot of shopping on Black Friday is done at actual stores. Shoppers look for deals especially on electronics【6】(像) televisions, computers and video game systems. These things typically have high prices,but on this day, there are only a few available at the very【7】(低的) sale prices. So people sometimes fight over these things.

Some people will wait in line for hours before【8】(午夜) when stores finally open. People【9】(宿营)out in the cold and sometimes get hurt when the doors open and people rush in.

But lately a few stores have been starting sales even【10】(更早地) on Thanksgiving Day. Stores do this to hopefully get more shoppers and stay ahead of the competition.

Van Gogh lived a hard life. Only one of his paintings was sold in his lifetime and he was never to financially(经济上地)support himself. His brother, Then, often helped him, and the friends of his brother’s would help him as well. People who knew him would often describe him as a difficult person and hardly happy. His paintings, however, use very lively colors and sometimes seem pleasant.

It was in his paintings that Van Gogh was able to express himself clearly. Most of his relationships in life fell apart quickly. There are many sad stories of Van Gogh attempting to get married. Every woman refused him. The famous painter, Gaugin, went to visit him after Van Gogh had written to him, asking for a visit. When Gaugin arrived, Van Gogh was very excited. Gaugin respected Van Gogh’s talent, but the friendship only lasted a few months. The friendship ended when Van Gogh fought him with a knife.

No one had ever painted the way Van Gogh did. The colors of his paintings were lively and the shapes were strange and dream- like. His life was just as strange as his art, and it ended very early. However, since his death, his paintings have become some of the most famous artworks in the world.
