Observe signs to approach nesting birds.BIn the United States alone, over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year. Cell-phones are p

26、art of a growing mountain of electronic waste like computers and personal digital assistants. The electronic waste stream is increasing three times faster than traditional garbage as a whole.Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold and silver. A Swiss study reported that while the wei

27、ght of electronic goods represented by precious metals was relatively small in comparison to total waste, the concentration (含量) of gold and other precious metals was higher in so-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals. Even when the

28、machines are recycled and the harmful metals removed, the recycling process often is carried out in poor countries, in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the environment.Creating products out of raw materials creates much more waste material, up to 100

29、 times more, than the material contained in the finished products. Consider again the cell-phone, and imagine the mines that produced those metals, the factories needed to make the box and packaging (包裝) it came in. Many wastes produced in the producing process are harmful as well.The U.S. Environme

30、ntal Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that “the production, distribution, and use of productsas well as management of the resulting wasteall result in greenhouse gas release.冶Individuals can reduce their contribution by creating less waste at the startfor instance, buying reus

31、able products and recycling.In many countries the concept of extended producer responsibility is being considered or has been put in place as an incentive (動(dòng)機(jī)) for reducing waste. If producers are required to take back packaging they use to sell their products, would they reduce the packaging in the

32、 first place?Governments incentive to require producers to take responsibility for the packaging they produce is usually based on money. Why, they ask, should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap (氣泡墊) that encased your television?From the governments point of view,

33、 a primary goal of laws requiring extended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and tax-payers back to the producers.58. By mentioning the Swiss study, the author intends to tell us that _.A. the weight of e-goo

34、ds is rather smallB. e-waste deserves to be made good use ofC. natural minerals contain more precious metalsD. the percentage of precious metals is heavy in e-waste59. The responsibility of e-waste treatment should be extended _.A. from producers to governments B. from governments to producersC. fro

35、m individuals to distributors D. from distributors to governments60. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The increase in e-waste. B. The creation of e-waste.C. The seriousness of e-waste. D. The management of e-waste.CSuppose you become a leader in an organization. Its very likely that youll

36、want to have volunteers to help with the organization s activities. To do so, it should help to understand why people undertake volunteer work and what keeps their interest in the work.Lets begin with the question of why people volunteer. Researchers have identified several factors that motivate peo

37、ple to get involved. For example, people volunteer to express personal values related to unselfishness, to expand their range of experiences, and to strengthen social relationships. If volunteer positions do not meet these needs, people may not wish to participate. To select volunteers, you may need

38、 to understand the motivations of the people you wish to attract. People also volunteer because they are required to do so. To increase levels of community service, some schools have launched compulsory volunteer programs. Unfortunately, these programs can shift people s wish of participation from a

39、n internal factor (e. g., “I volunteer because it s important to me) to an external factor (e.g., “I volunteer because I m required to do so). When that happens, people become less likely to volunteer in the future. People must be sensitive to this possibility when they make volunteer activities a m

40、ust.Once people begin to volunteer, what leads them to remain in their positions over time? To answer this question, researchers have conducted follow-up studies in which they track volunteers over time. For instance, one study followed 238 volunteers in Florida over a year. One of the most importan

41、t factors that influenced their satisfaction as volunteers was the amount of suffering they experienced in their volunteer positions. Although this result may not surprise you, it leads to important practical advice. The researchers note that attention should be given to “training methods that would

42、 prepare volunteers for troublesome situations or provide them with strategies for coping with the problem they do experience.Another study of 302 volunteers at hospitals in Chicago focused on individual differences in the degree to which people view “volunteer as an important social role. It was as

43、sumed that those people for whom the role of volunteer was most part of their personal identity would also be most likely to continue volunteer work. Participants indicated the degree to which the social role mattered by responding to statements such as “Volunteering in Hospital is an important part

44、 of who I am. Consistent with the researchers expectations, they found a positive correlation (正相關(guān)) between the strength of role identity and the length of time people continued to volunteer. These results, once again, lead to concrete advice: “Once an individual begins volunteering, continued effor

45、ts might focus on developing a volunteer role identity. Items like T-shirts that allow volunteers to be recognized publicly for their contributions can help strengthen role identity.61. People volunteer mainly out of _.A. academic requirements B. social expectationsC. financial rewards D. internal n

46、eeds62. What can we learn from the Florida study?A. Follow-up studies should last for one year.B. Volunteers should get mentally prepared.C. Strategy training is a must in research. D. Volunteers are provided with concrete advice.63. What is most likely to motivate volunteers to continue their work?

47、A. Individual differences in role identity. B. Publicly identifiable volunteer T-shirts.C. Role identity as a volunteer. D. Practical advice from researchers.64. What is the best title of the passage?A. How to Get People to Volunteer B. How to Study Volunteer BehaviorsC. How to Keep Volunteers Inter

48、est D. How to Organize Volunteer ActivitiesDFreedom and ResponsibilityFreedoms challenge in the Digital Age is a serious topic. We are facing today a strange new world and we are all wondering what we are going to do with it. Some 2,500 years ago Greece discovered freedom. Before that there was no f

49、reedom. There were great civilizations, splendid empires, but no freedom anywhere. Egypt and Babylon were both tyrannies, one very powerful man ruling over helpless masses.In Greece, in Athens (雅典), a little city in a little country, there were no helpless masses. And Athenians willingly obeyed the

50、written laws which they themselves passed, and the unwritten, which must be obeyed if free men live together. They must show each other kindness and pity and the many qualities without which life would be very painful unless one chose to live alone in the desert. The Athenians never thought that a m

51、an was free if he could do what he wanted. A man was free if he was self-controlled. To make yourself obey what you approved was freedom. They were saved from looking at their lives as their own private affair. Each one felt responsible for the welfare of Athens, not because it was forced on him fro

52、m the outside, but because the city was his pride and his safety. The essential belief of the first free government in the world was liberty for all men who could control themselves and would take responsibility for the state.But discovering freedom is not like discovering computers. It cannot be di

53、scovered once for all. If people do not prize it, and work for it, it will go. Constant watch is its price. Athens changed. It was a change that took place without being noticed though it was of the extreme importance, a spiritual change which affected the whole state. It had been the Athenian s pri

54、de and joy to give to their city. That they could get material benefits from her never entered their minds. There had to be a complete change of attitude before they could look at the city as an employer who paid her citizens for doing her work. Now instead of men giving to the state, the state was

55、to give to them. What the people wanted was a government which would provide a comfortable life for them; and with this as the primary object, ideas of freedom and self-reliance and responsibility were neglected to the point of disappearing. Athens was more and more looked on as a cooperative busine

56、ss possessed of great wealth in which all citizens had a right to share. Athens reached the point when the freedom she really wanted was freedom from responsibility. There could be only one result. If men insisted on being free from the burden of self-dependence and responsibility for the common good, they would cease to be free. Responsibility is the price every man must pay for freedom. It is to be had on no other terms. Athens, the Athens of Ancient Greece, refused responsib
