“Wet” rubbish is also known as “household” rubbish. It is what people produce every day after they eat or drink. “It is the thing you don’t want but pigs can eat”, Guangzhou Daily explained. Paper, metal, glass and other things that can be recused are recyclable rubbish. Harmful rubbish includes things like medicine, batteries and so on.

【推荐2】Plastic pollution is one of the earth’s greatest challenges that humans have faced and often neglected (忽略). Anyone who uses plastic has caused problems in one way or another. In order to solve the environmental problems, more and more people are starting to live a simple and environmental-friendly life called zero-waste lifestyle.
When you choose a zero-waste lifestyle, you pay more attention to how your consumption (消费) habits influence the environment. You’re more careful about what you buy and how you use it. So how can you live a zero-waste life? Actually when looking at your rubbish, you’ll grasp what it is.
There are two main types of rubbish. The first is food packaging (包装), so we should learn how to shop for things with no big pack or package-free. The second is product packaging, so we should learn how to make our own products in a green way. With our efforts, we will reduce a large amount of rubbish. Shopping for second-hand goods is also important. Instead of buying new clothes and putting new waste into the waste cycle, we should buy things that are second-hand or can be totally recycled.
There are many advantages of living a zero-waste life. Firstly, we can save money by making things ourselves and buying second-hand goods. Second-hand clothes are usually less expensive than new ones. Next, we can eat better to stay healthy. We should buy fresh fruits and vegetables to reduce the waste of resources when processing food.
Although government policies can make a difference, it needs everyone’s efforts to completely solve the problem. From now on, let’s begin to live a green life.

【推荐1】When talking about the Chinese food going abroad, you can’t forget River Snail Rice Noodles, or Luosifen. It is one of the most popular snacks in Liuzhou City, Guangxi province. The dish is famous for its strong smell. Do you know how to make Luosifen?
The first step is to prepare some rice noodles, river snails and different kinds of ingredients. To make it, firstly, people should soak (浸泡) the rice noodles in water until they are soft. After that, wash the river snails and make soup. When the rice noodles and the soup are ready, then boil rice noodles with sour bamboo shoots (酸竹笋), dried tofu skin, fresh vegetables and peanuts in river snail soup. The taste mostly comes from the sour bamboo shoots. This ingredient gives Luosifen its unique taste. “Without the sour bamboo shoots, Luosifen will lose its soul (灵魂), “some people say.
In the 1970s, Luosifen was just a cheap street snack in Liuzhou. People outside of the city knew little about it. It became an intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) of Guangxi in 2008. Four years later, a popular Chinese food show, A Bite of China, made Luosifen known to the public and then it became a household name. From then on, Luosifen has become popular across China.
Now more and more Luosifen restaurants are opened not only in the big cities in China, but also in many foreign countries like the US, Australia, Germany and so on. People can also buy instant (速食的) Luosifen online on apps such as Taobao and Tiktok. You can enjoy Luosifen wherever you like.

【推荐2】Think about what is happening in many families: Kids come home, jump onto the sofa, then get lost in the world of the small screen. Now, a new law is making parents take responsibility for family education to help shape their children’s future.
Called the Law on Family Education Promotion (《家庭教育促进法》), it is the first of its kind in China and came into effect on Jan 1,2022. It encourages parents to educate their children properly.
The law stops parents from placing too much pressure on their children. Parents should allow their children to have enough time to study, rest, play and exercise, and make sure they don’t become addicted (上瘾的) to the Internet. They should treat all children equally and should never use violence (暴力) toward children.
For children in rural areas, they may be left alone while their parents go to work in cities. The law asks local governments to keep a close eye on such families, and help the parents get jobs locally so that they can be more responsible for their children’s education.
“Family education affects the future of the country,” says Sun Hongyan, head of youth and children research at the China Youth and Children Research Center. “Now, with the new law, family education is no longer just important to a family but also to a country. Parents who fail to educate their children properly might be breaking the law and will be given a warning.”
