Electronic waste (电子垃圾), also known as “E-waste”, is used to describe the waste from useless electronics such as computers, phones, fridges, washing machines, TVs and so on. Most of these electronics are not often rubbish, but just given up. In 2019, the world produced 53.6 million tons of e-waste, and the world’s e-waste will reach 74.7 million tons by 2030.
Last week, Guangming Research Centre made surveys among 1,000 residents (居民) in Xingfu community. The surveys were mainly about different kinds of e-waste and how the residents deal with e-waste. The diagrams below show the results.
E-waste is the world’s fastest-growing kind of waste, and only a small part of it is collected and recycled. Some residents think they should recycle e-waste, because e-waste includes many valuable metals, such as gold, silver and so on. They say they try to repair some electronics rather than buy new ones. They also give away their electronics which they don’t like any more to people in need.

Bi Sheng was a great Chinese inventor who lived in the 11th century. He came from a poor family. But he had a great interest in learning and making things. In those times, books were copied by hand with great difficulty. It was a very slow and hard task. Bi Sheng often saw that and thought there must be a better way.
One day, while walking in the street, Bi Sheng noticed two children were making little toys like people and pigs out of the mud and putting them in different orders. This gave Bi Sheng a great idea. He thought that he could make the character first and then put them in orders like the mud toys.
After much thought and experiments, Bi Sheng decided to use clay. He carefully pressed the clay into small pieces and cut one character on each piece. Then, he put these clay pieces into a fire to make them hard. Then he put the clay characters in an iron frame (框架) to form a passage. After that, ink was put on the clay characters. A piece of paper was placed on the top and the inked characters appeared on it with gentle press. After printing, the clay characters can be kept and reused.
This movable type printing (活字印刷术) made making books much quicker and easier. People could get books more easily. However, some people didn’t believe in this new invention. But Bi Sheng didn’t give up and kept making it better. Today, this type of printing still has a big influence not only in China but also in other places. It shows us that with creativity and great efforts, we can also do great things and make the world a better place.

Have you ever wondered how numbers first came about And why are there 10 of them
Early humans in the Old Stone Age likely counted animals and other objects by carving tally marks on walls, bones or stone. Tally marks were grouped by 5. Each tally mark stood for 1 and each fifth mark was scored through to help keep track. This system was fine for small numbers, but it didn’t really work with large numbers.
As society developed, people came up with different ways of writing down numbers. Many of these systems, though appearing in different countries, were mainly based on tally marks. They created new symbols for each larger number. But even with these systems, it was still cumbersome to write large numbers.
By the 7th century, Indians had perfected the decimal positional (十进位) system, which could describe any number with only ten unique symbols. A key breakthrough of this system was the number zero. Older systems, which didn’t have zero, would leave a blank in its place, making it hard to distinguish between 63 and 603 or 12 and 120. Having and using zero helped make writing down numbers clearer and easier for everyone to understand.
But why were the numbers known as “Arabic” since they were born in India Here’s an interesting story behind it. Sometime in the year 771, Arab businessmen took some Indian scholars to Baghdad to help teach them the new set of numbers. After learning the numbers, the Arabs translated the new numbers into their own script that is Arabic. Sometime later, the Arab traders carried a book of these numerals to Europe, where the numbers were translated into Latin. As the world got these numbers from Arabia, these came to be known as Arabic numerals.
33.What do we know about the early counting systems
A.They were created in India.
B.They all worked with large numbers.
C.All the systems followed old symbols.
D.Many of them were based on the same system.
34.What does the underlined word “cumbersome” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A.Hard. B.Useless. C.Convenient. D.Practical.
35.Which number became clearer to understand after Indians perfected the decimal positional system
A.82. B.8002. C.182. D.821.
36.The new set of numbers is called Arabic numerals because ________.
A.the Arabs invented them B.the Arabs spread them
C.the Arabs lied to the world D.the Arabs kept them to themselves
