Brownie and Harry were neighbor dogs in Stowe, a beautiful and peaceful town in Lamoille County, Vermont, United States, who met everyday to play together, running after each other joyfully. Like pairs of dogs you can find in most any neighborhood, these two loved each other and played together so often that they had worn a path through the grass of the field between their respective houses.
One evening, Brownie's family noticed that Brownie hadn't returned home as usual. They went looking for him with no success. Brownie still didn't show up the next day, and, despite their efforts to find him, by the next week he was still missing.
Curiously, the other dog, Harry, showed up at Brownie's house alone one day. He barked, jumped and pestered(纠缠) Brownie's human family, showing that he was filled with anxiety. Busy with their own lives, the family just ignored the nervous little neighbor dog and decided to let the missing dog go.
Harry refused to take “no” for an answer. Ted, Brownie’s owner, was steadily disturbed by the angry, determined little dog. One morning Harry followed Ted about, barking more insistently, then rushing toward a nearby empty lot and back, as if to say, “Follow me, please!I's very urgent!”
Eventually, Ted went after the mad Harry across the empty lot as Harry paused to race back and bark encouragingly. The little dog led the man under a tree, past some tree jungles, to a lonely spot a half mile from the house. There Ted found his beloved Brownie, and he was alive, with one of his front legs falling into a steel trap. At that moment, Ted understood the strange behavior of Harry.
Feeling regretful, Ted now wished he had taken Harry's earlier appeals seriously. However, Harry had done more than simply led Brownie’s human owner to his trapped friend. Ted noticed something quite remarkable before him and was shocked that the amount of love that the dog has for his partner could be so outstanding.
Paragraph 1:
In a circle around the injured dog, there were some remains of meals.

On Sina Weibo, the issue of trash sorting in Shanghai has attracted more than 50,000 posts and 70 million views, but enforcement of the regulation has sparked mixed feelings among the public.
Some people praised Shanghai for being a role model to solve the trash problem, while others complained about the inconvenience the regulation had brought to their daily lives, and made jokes about sorting their trash.
One of the most popular jokes goes, “Think about pigs before sorting your trash—things pigs can eat go to kitchen waste, things pigs don’t eat are residual waste, things pigs might die from while eating them are risky, and things that can be sold for money to buy a pig belong to recyclables.”
Xiao Guiyu, deputy director of the Standing Committee of the Shanghai Municipal People’s Congress, said, “Although it’s a joke, it sums up the principle of trash sorting in a simple way that everyone can understand.” As for the complaints about inconvenience, the legislator stressed that the new regulation is a law, and just like traffic regulations, people have to learn to obey it as long as they live in Shanghai.

President Xi Jinping has called for garbage classification to be accelerated nationwide to help save resources and protect the environment. All major cities are expected to start garbage classification this year, and the system should be completed and function well by the end of 2025.
Yet the reality seems remote from the vision. Take Beijing, an early bird in garbage sorting, as an example. Even if the capital’s residents sort their garbage at home and throw them into different trash cans as required, almost all household garbage, including kitchen waste, is mixed up and transported away by the same rubbish truck.
Now it is the time for the government to reform its garbage disposal( 处 理 ) policies to ensure the formation of a complete industrial chain on garbage collection and recycling. For example, the household garbage disposal fee should be charged according to the total weight of the garbage each home produces in one year.
If the policy is carried on, resources can be saved and the environment improved.
