Have you noticed the waste bins(垃圾桶) in different colors on the street? Do you often put all the waste in the same bin? It's reported by Changchun Daily that people must do waste sorting(分类)in most places in Changchun at the end of 2019. Waste sorting is a wonderful way to make good use of energy and protect the environment. But do you know how to sort the waste?

Usually, people should sort their waste into four groups: wet, recyclable, harmful and dry.Different kinds of waste should go into different bins. Wet waste means the things you don't want but pigs can eat, mostly coming from your kitchen. Things that can be used again, such as paper, metal and glass, are recyclable waste. Harmful waste might be dangerous or cause serious pollution, like medicine and batteries(电池). And any waste that's not wet, recyclable or harmful will go into the dry waste bin.

Different countries are trying different methods to sort the waste. A university in England has invented a smart bin. When people drop their waste into the bin. It can tell what kind of waste it it and sort it correctly. The bin can also compress the waste to make it smaller in size and take up less space. In South Korea, people have to separate their food waste from other kinds of waste and pay for it. The more food waste they throw away, the more they pay. Japan has the strictest rules for waste sorting in the world. For example, plastic bottles and their caps should go into different bins.

Trying to lose weight can be difficult, and while we all know exercise and diet are both   basic needs, which one is more important?

If you had to choose, should you be hitting the gym, or eating salads? There are many ways you can burn a few hundred calories (卡路里): running for 20 minutes, an hour of swimming, or singing your favourite song 23 times. But the point is, it takes time to burn a lot of calories even with most tiring activity - not to mention the time spent on the way to the gym, and then back home to clean up.

Now, compare this to the number of calories in a chocolate bar - which is often over 200 calories. You could either walk for about an hour to burn that 200 calories, or you could simply not eat that chocolate bar. Which sounds easier to you? How about running for 30 minutes every day or cutting out those two cans of soda? Many physicians point out that there is a lot of high-sugar, high-fat, high-calorie foods we could cut from our diet, to see weight loss results more quickly. And studies also show that diet does actually play a bigger role in weight loss than exercise. A survey of 2000 children found that the level of physical activity was not the main reason for their weight. And a study of 3000 adults discovered that cutting down calories was connected to greater weight loss than exercise alone.

Of course, exercise has many health advantages besides weight loss, like slowing the aging process and improving mental health. But at the end of the day, if you expect to lose weight, you’re likely to get more bang for your buck if you focus on your diet first.

A．is as much as the energy we need for singing a song 23 times

We were deeply moved when we saw this.
Just at the moment, we saw     40    little boy standing alone and crying. We went over and asked what    41    to him. From his answer we knew that he couldn’t find his mother.

A. 回答问题
请阅读下面这篇文章，根据所提供的信息，回答后面的问题。

I was born with a problem in my leg and mobility （行走能力） was a big challenge for me. Thanks to my teachers and friends, my school life was excellent.

My friends and I used to sit together and have lots of fun. Whenever we were free, we played games. I took part in most student activities as long as I could, such as art festivals, English corners and birthday parties. My friends also helped me with my study. When I was absent from class, they took notes for me.

My English teacher was a beautiful lady. The moment she entered the class, we would all sit quietly and open the books. She would encourage me by giving me important assignments （功课）. She would come down and listen to my English debate （辩论）, which encouraged me to take part in all debate competitions. The same was true of my biology and science teacher. She was very nice and sweet. She would always give me extra instructions on the biology project. I could not go to the lab for experiments, so she would bring the lab down and help me with the biology and science experiments and would give me excellent marks.

I was never shouted at or made fun of or scolded （批评） by any of my friends and teachers. I really want to express my love and thanks to all my wonderful teachers and friends. Without them my school life would not have been so excellent and unforgettable.
