It is reported that some developed countries have shipped broken parts of computers to China. Such a thing can be founded every day although it is against international laws. Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan.

Things like these are called electronic waste, or e-waste. Dealing with them is not an easy job because dangerous poison like mercury(汞) and lead (铅) can be found in them. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs to be dealt with safely. But at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds of years before they are really goes in the earth. Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong province is one of them. This town is named as ―the e-waste capital of the world‖. It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million years. But it comes at a cost. Many of the poison in e-waste find their way into the environment. Plastic is burned outdoors and chemical water is poured into rivers, Greenpeace, an environmental group, has found the air, the earth and the rivers in Guiyu badly polluted.

The Chinese government wants the country to develop, but in a way that doesn‘t do harm to the environment and people‘s life. This year, China presents a new protection law, the strictest one we have ever had. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. This is because the companies that make computers know best to deal with them safely. Hopefully, the problem with e-waste will be solved in the near future.

70. The passage is mainly about ________.

How do you imagine the future? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as now? What do you think of the future?

People think that life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, planes will be very small, so flying will be very cheap. Everyone will have a small car.

Houses will be warm in winter and cool in summer, so they will be very

comfortable. We ‘ll use the sunshine to heat our houses. Computers will be very small, so they ‘ll be very light. People will do many things on the Internet.

In Western countries, many children do housework to make money. They usually start to do this at the age of 10.

School students have to do homework and study for exams. They don‘t have free time from Monday to Friday. So they do housework only on weekends.

Younger kids only do easy housework. So they don‘t get much money. But that‘s OK. Many of them only want to buy candy．And candy is cheap! They help do the dishes after dinner, and feed the family cat or dog.

When they get older, kids want to buy more things. They want things that are more expensive than candy. Then they have to work harder! They often wash the family car, cut the grass, walk the dog or cook dinner.

Doing housework is a good way for kids to learn new things. For example, they can 1earn how to cut grass or how to cook. Of course, their parents help them at first.
