Rethinking on Sorting of Waste

Waste sorting is becoming increasingly common around the world.It has slowly moved into the center of discussion on the future of business and sustainable(可持續(xù)的) development.It may seem like a tiny activity, but is indeed quite complex.Waste sorting is no doubt an important step toward a global circular economy(循環(huán)經(jīng)濟(jì)) and an environment-friendly society.

In the coming years, the world is supposed to clear out the use of fossil fuels(化學(xué)燃料), become more resource- efficient and ensure greater equity(公平).Waste sorting can play a key role in achieving these goals. However, what we need and expect is very different from what we are taking now.Waste sorting in some areas is working reasonably well, for example the glass and metal industries.But when we are looking at global sustainability, there is a need to rethink waste sorting.

The world seems to be in a dilemma.It is no longer clear if the kind of waste sorting done in western nations is part of the problem or the solution.Much of the recycled waste is turned into low-value goods in a way that does not result in a completely reduced use of natural resources.People around the world have begun to realize that much of the waste they sort is not perfect in sustainable material flows.Instead, it is shipped to poor countries, without being used in a correct way.

A waste sorting system for the 21st century should build on the high technology that allows citizens to know more about what is happening to the waste they are sorting.It should also require companies to show how resources-efficient their solutions are In this way, consumers(消費(fèi)者)will be able to compare choices.

China could start in the next generation of waste sorting systems- those that help citizens to know more about what is happening to the waste they are sorting.Such a waste sorting system would be a driver for innovation and resource efficiency and a true step toward a greener global village.

【2】C

【3】C

【解析】

本文介紹了垃圾分類(lèi)對(duì)全球循環(huán)經(jīng)濟(jì)和環(huán)保社會(huì)是非常重要的。但是在西方國(guó)家，垃圾分類(lèi)并不完美。21世紀(jì)的垃圾分類(lèi)系統(tǒng)應(yīng)該建立在高科技的基礎(chǔ)上，讓公民更多地了解他們分類(lèi)的垃圾正在發(fā)生什么。

【1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“Waste sorting is no doubt an important step toward a global circular economy(循環(huán)經(jīng)濟(jì)) and an environment-friendly society.”可知，作者通過(guò)闡述垃圾分類(lèi)的重要性，來(lái)介紹“垃圾分類(lèi)”這個(gè)話題，故選D。

【2】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“It is no longer clear if the kind of waste sorting done in western nations is part of the problem or the solution.”可知，在西方國(guó)家，垃圾分類(lèi)并不完美，故選C。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)“A waste sorting system for the 21st century should build on the high technology that allows citizens to know more about what is happening to the waste they are sorting.”可知，關(guān)于21世紀(jì)的垃圾分類(lèi)系統(tǒng)，高新技術(shù)有助于提高資源利用效率。故選C。

認(rèn)真閱讀題干，根據(jù)題干要求，在文中尋找答案所在的語(yǔ)句或段落，進(jìn)行分析理解，詞義猜測(cè)，推理判斷和概括歸納，選出正確的選項(xiàng)。例如小題1，根據(jù)“Waste sorting is no doubt an important step toward a global circular economy(循環(huán)經(jīng)濟(jì)) and an environment-friendly society.”可知，作者通過(guò)闡述垃圾分類(lèi)的重要性，來(lái)介紹“垃圾分類(lèi)”這個(gè)話題，故選D。
