  Recycling is nothing new.Waste paper, rings, and many other things have been recycled and used again in many different ways for many years.It is only the word that is new.But now that natural materials(原材料)are becoming more difficult to find.Many countries are experimenting with other ways of keeping materials.

  Several firms are experimenting with making containers(集装箱)from a hard plastic which, when the containers are finished, can be used as building materials, a kind of brick.If mountains of empty cans all over the world can be changed into building materials that are not too expensive, that too, is a new source(来源)of material.

A new sport—a sport that can be enjoyed around city parks, streets and pavement(人行道), is gaining popularity around the world. It's fast and exciting and it's called roller-blading. These days, it's common to see people roller-blading at great speed or performing tricks(特技)such as jumps, going backwards or going downstairs. The guys and girls who are roller-bladers often go out in groups and sometimes wear trendy(时髦的)clothes. You will also see roller-bladers wear protective padding on their knees, elbows and hands as well as a helmet(安全帽).

  The sport first began in the United States in the 1980's and its origins can be traced(探寻)directly to two other sports: roller-skating and ice-skating. For people who have never tried it, roller-blading looks difficult. But the truth is it only takes a few hours and a bit of courage to get started. If you talk to people who can roller-blade, they will tell you the two most important things to remember when you start are to be brave and persistent(持久的).

  The first few times you try, make sure you wear all your protective padding and just go slow. You will be surprised at how quickly you can learn. Once you get going, you will notice how much exercise your legs and hips will receive. Eventually, you will develop extra muscle strength in these areas and lose some of the extra weight you might have been carrying. There's no doubt your overall fitness will improve.

  Roller-blading is a popular sport but it is also a practical way of transport. If you usually ride a bicycle, or walk to school or work, then perhaps you can start going by roller-blades instead. But most of all, roller-blading is about having fun. There's nothing better than putting on your roller-blades and gliding(滑行)around a lake or a park on a sunny day.
