Landfills You have just finished your meal at a fast food restaurant and you throw your uneaten food, food wrappers, drink cups, utensils and napkins into the trash can. You don't think about that waste again. On trash pickup day in your neighborhood, you push your can out to the curb, and workers dump the contents into a big truck and haul it away. You don't have to think about that waste again, either. But maybe you have wondered, as you watch the trash truck pull away, just where that garbage ends up. Americans generate trash at an Astonishing rate of four pounds per day per person; which translates to 600,000 tons per day or 210 million tons per year! This is almost twice as much trash per person as most other major countries. What happens to this trash? Some gets recycled (回收利 用) or recovered and some is burned, but the majority is buried in landfills. How Much Trash Is Generated? Of the 210 million tons of trash, or solid waste, generated in the United States annually, about 56 million tons, or 27 percent, is either recycled (glass, paper products, plastic, metals) or composted (做成堆肥) (yard waste). The remaining trash, which is mostly unrecyclable, is discarded. How Is Trash Disposed of? The trash production in the United States has almost tripled since 1960. This trash is handled in various ways. About 27 percent of the trash is recycled or composted, 16 percent is burned and 57 percent is buried in landfills. The amount of trash buried in landfills has doubled since 1960. The United States ranks somewhere in the middle of the major countries (United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, France and Japan) in landfill disposal. The United Kingdom ranks highest, burying about 90 percent of its solid waste in landfills. What Is a Landfill? There are two ways to bury trash: mice, birds). (This is most people's idea of a landfill!) Landfill—carefully designed structure built into or on top of the ground in which trash is

isolated from the surrounding environment (groundwater, air, rain). This isolation is accomplished with a bottom liner and daily covering of soil. Sanitary landfill—land fill that uses a clay liner to isolate the trash from the environment Municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill—landfill that uses a synthetic (plastic) liner to isolate the trash from the environment The purpose of a landfill is to bury the trash in such a way that it will be isolated from groundwater, will be kept dry and will not be in contact with air. Under these conditions, trash will not decompose (腐烂) much. A landfill is not like a compost pile, where the purpose is to bury trash in such a way that it will decompose quickly. Proposing the Landfill For a landfill to be built, the operators have to make sure that they follow certain steps. In most parts of the world, there are regulations that govern where a landfill can be placed and how it can operate. The whole process begins with someone proposing the landfill. In the United States, taking care of trash and building landfills are local government responsibilities. Before a city or other authority can build a landfill, an environment impact study must be done on the proposed site to determine: the area of land necessary for the landfill the composition of the underlying soil and bedrock the flow of surface water over the site the impact of the proposed landfill on the local environment and wildlife the historical value of the proposed site Building the Landfill Once the environmental impact study is complete, the permits are granted and the funds have been raised, then construction begins. First, access roads to the landfill site must be built if they do not already exist. There roads will be used by construction equipment, sanitation (环卫) services and the general public. After roads have been built, digging can begin. In the North Wake Country Landfill, the landfill began 10 feet below the road surface. What Happens to Trash in a Landfill? Trash put in a landfill will stay there for a very long time. Inside a landfill, there is little oxygen and little moisture. Under these conditions, trash does not break down very rapidly. In fact, when old landfills have been dug up or sampled, 40-year-old newspapers have been found with easily readable print. Landfills are not designed to break down trash, merely to bury it. When a landfill closes, the site, especially the groundwater, must be monitored and maintained for up to 30 years! How Is a Landfill Operated? A landfill, such as the North Wake County Landfill, must be open and available every day. Customers are typically municipalities and construction companies, although residents may also use the landfill. Near the entrance of the landfill is a recycling center where residents can drop off recyclable materials (aluminum cans, glass bottles, newspapers and paper products). This helps to reduce the amount of material in the landfill. Some of these materials are banned from landfills by law because they can be recycled. As customers enter the site, their trucks are weighed at the scale house. Customers are charged tipping fees for using the site. The tipping fees vary from $10 to $40 per ton. These fees
are used to pay for operation costs.The North Wake County Landfill has an operating budget of tely $4.5 million,and partmaterials that are not wanted Along he site,there are dropo st by the landfill A multi-material drop-off station is used for tires,motor oil,lead-acid batteries.

are used to pay for operation costs. The North Wake County Landfill has an operating budget of approximately $4.5 million, and part of that comes from tipping fees. Along the site, there are drop-off stations for materials that are not wanted or legally banned by the landfill. A multi-material drop-off station is used for tires, motor oil, lead-acid batteries. Some of these materials can be recycled. In addition, there is a household hazardous waste drop-off station for chemicals (paints, pesticides, other chemicals) that are banned from the landfill. These chemicals are disposed of by private companies. Some paints can be recycled and some organic chemicals can be burned in furnaces or power plants. Other structures alongside the landfill are the borrowed area that supplies the soil for the landfill, the runoff collection pond and methane (甲烷) station. Landfills are complicated structures that, when properly designed and managed, serve an important purpose. In the future, new technologies called bioreactors will be used to speed the breakdown of trash in landfills and produce more methane. 1.

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center. Passage 1 Teaching is supposed to be a professional activity requiring long and complicated training as well as official certification. The act of teaching is looked upon as a flow of knowledge from a higher source to an empty container. The student’s role is one of receiving information; the teacher’s role is one of sending it. There is a clear distinction assumed between one who is supposed to know (and therefore not capable of being wrong) and another, usually younger person who is supposed not to know. However, teaching need not be the province of a special group of people nor need it be looked upon as a teaching skill. Teaching can be more like guiding and assisting than forcing information into a supposedly empty head. If you have a certain skill you should be able to share with someone else or to help them in their attempt to teach themselves. All of us, from the very youngest children to the oldest members of our cultures should come to realize our own potential as teachers. We can share what we know, however little it might be, with
someone who has need of that knowledge or skill a.a division of land b.a branch of knowledge c.a field of activity d.a special organization 2.According to the selection,teaching is traditionally regarded as all of the following EXCEPT aa professional activity requiring special training .a flow ofknowledge from the teacher to the studen d.a helpful job for one to share a certain skill with others 3.The author seems to think that to be a teacher is a extremely difficult b.as easy as turning over the palm c.by no means easy d.not as difficult as people usually think aa guide b.an information sender c.ahelper d.bothAand 5.Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage? a.The author believes that it is difficult to be a good teacher. b.The author believes that every person has the potential to be a teacher Thnow kowoi r ihr ur mp container Passage 2 In order to learn a foreign language well.it is necessary to overcome the fear of making mistakes.If the primar oal of la on,the mistakes are seco mis akes ses.On other hand,students should not ignore their mistakes.The language learner may observe how native speakers express themselves.and how native expressions differ from the way the learner might say them.For example,a Spanish speaker who has been saying "I do it"to express willingness to do something in the in mediate future,could by inter with native speaker of ative sp ctually say "ldo it".The a basis for the student to modify his way of using the present tense in English.But a student who is unwilling to interact in the first place would lost this opportunity to learn by trail and error. 1.According to the passage,the present tense in English is a not used to express a desire to do something in the immediate future h used with rhs but with oth future intention c.basically the en English as it isin Spanish d.not the most difficult problem for foreign students 2.According to the passage,language learners can reduce the number of their mistakes by a asking native speakers for explanations b.reading good books in the foreign language c.comparing their speech with that of native speakers d.speaking without regard 3.According to the passage,foreign language students who do not interact with native speakers will not

Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage? a. The author believes that it is difficult to be a good teacher. b. The author believes that every person has the potential to be a teacher. c. The author believes that teaching is a professional activity requiring special training. d. The author believes that teaching is a flow of knowledge from a higher source to an empty container. Passage 2 In order to learn a foreign language well, it is necessary to overcome the fear of making mistakes. If the primary goal of language use is communication, the mistakes are secondary considerations that may be dealt with gradually as awareness of those mistakes increases. On the other hand, students should not ignore their mistakes. The language learner may observe how native speakers express themselves, and how native expressions differ from the way the learner might say them. For example, a Spanish speaker who has been saying "I do it" to express willingness to do something in the immediate future, could, by interacting with native speaker of English, observe that native speakers actually say "I'll do it". The resulting difference can serve as a basis for the student to modify his way of using the present tense in English. But a student who is unwilling to interact in the first place would lost this opportunity to learn by trail and error. 1. According to the passage, the present tense in English is ________. a. not used to express a desire to do something in the immediate future b. used with some verbs but with others to express future intention c. basically the same in English as it is in Spanish d. not the most difficult problem for foreign students 2. According to the passage, language learners can reduce the number of their mistakes by ________. a. asking native speakers for explanations b. reading good books in the foreign language c. comparing their speech with that of native speakers d. speaking without regard 3. According to the passage, foreign language students who do not interact with native speakers will not ________
a.learn very much about the foreign culture b.learn about the history of the c.have to worry about making mistakes d.take advantage of available language models 4.According to the passage,foreign language students should not worry too much about making mistakes because c.native speakers will ignore their mistakes d.everyone makes mistakes when trying to communicate in a strange language 5.The author's major conclusion about the function of mistakes in foreign language learning is that a mistakes are not important in the ocess of la nguage learning b.learners are often very afraid of making mistakes c.making mistakes can help the learner discover the rules of the language d.native speakers often do not tell foreign language learners about their mistakes Part V Cloze (15 minutes) Directions:There are 15 blanks in the following passage.Each blank is provided with four possible choices.Choose the ONE that best fits into the passage.
