This report will examine this problem and provide some possible ways to solve it.We live in a society that is producing and using electronics(电子产品) all the time. It is often cheaper to buy new products than to repair old ones. Also, through clever advertising, companies always encourage people to change their old TVs, mobile phones and computers for the latest models. E-waste is created when we throw away old ones. In the EU alone, about 8,700,000 tons of e-waste is produced each year. Sadly, just over 1,000,000 tons is recycled.Burying(填埋) e-waste or burning it cause serious problems for the environment. Electronics have dangerous things in them. These things can then get into the ground or pollute the air when they are burnt.In recent years, . However, their plans are not always managed properly. Sometimes electronics are just sent to poor countries such as Ghana. Here they are often burnt in public areas, which is very bad for peoples health. Setting up recycling centers is a good way to solve this problem. E-cycling centers could recycle the parts that can be reused and deal with the rest properly.Another way is to make producers responsible(负责任) for their used products. This means that producers must take back old products which are no longer wanted. They should then make sure they are properly recycled or reused.As for us, we should try to cut down on e-waste. Change electronics only when we have to. And dont buy a product just to have the latest model.E-waste is a serious problem in the modern world. Both producers and users must take actions and try to keep it to the smallest amount.（1）According to the passage, it is often _ to buy new electronics than to repair old ones.A . more expensiveB . more difficultC . cheaperD . worse（2）In the passage the underlined word they refers to _.A . the old productsB . the producersC . the usersD . the new products（3）Which of the following is the best for the blank in Paragraph 4?A . the e-waste problem has been solved.B . the e-waste problem continues growing.C . many countries have started recycling e-waste.D . people havent realized the e-waste problem yet.（4）Which sentence shows the writers opinion?A . Burning e-waste causes problems for the environment.B . E-waste problem is very serious and people should take actions.C . Sometimes electronics are sent to poor countries such as Ghana.D . In the EU alone, about 8,700,000 tons of e-waste is produced each year.4. （8分） Once there was an old farmer, with a horse which was almost as old as himself.

Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I dont agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources（资源）, we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported（据报道） that we will have no coal （煤）or oil to use in 100 years. Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life, we can do many things to stop waste . For example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom and try not to order more food than we need. Little by little, everything will be changed.

The moon is about 384, 000 kilometres away from the earth. A plane can not fly to the moon because the air reaches only 240kilometres away from the earth. But something can fly even when there is no air. Thats a rocket(火箭).How does a rocket fly? There is gas(气体) in the rocket. When the gas inside the rocket got hot enough, it will rush out of the end of the rocket. So it can make the rocket fly up into the sky. Rockets can fly far out into space. Rockets with men have been to the moon. Several rockets with men have flown to another planet much farther away than the moon. One day rockets may be able to go to any place in space.根据短文内容, 补全下文。(词数不限)The moon is about 384, 000 kilometres away from us. It is so far that a plane _it.
