A civilian rescue team of named Ramunion from Hangzhou, East China’s Zhejiang Province is expected to arrive in Turkey on Wednesday, with an advance team    1     (consist) of eight experts with rich international earthquake rescue experiences.Thisis    2    first Chinese civilian assistance force sent to Turkey,    3    a series of earthquakes destroyed parts of the region.

The advance team is equipped with    4    (advance) radar life-searching instruments, and other rescue    5    (equip)and a search and rescue canine(犬)．

Deng Boqing, vice chairman of the China International Development Cooperation Agency (CIDCA),said in an interview that Chinese government     6    (immediate) launched its emergency humanitarian assistance mechanism to provide emergency aid to Turkey and Syria.

China announced 40 million yuan ($5.8 million) of emergency assistance to Turkey and the dispatch of a rescue and medical team. It will also provide Syria           7    emergency aid, according to the CIDCA.

Chinese    8    (citizen) in Turkey have volunteered for disaster relief, and relief materials including tents, sleeping bags and blankets     9    (expect)to be distributed on Tuesday.

More than 4,000 people have been killed and nearly 20,000 people injured after two    10    (power) earthquakes rocked Turkey and Syria, according to media reports.

In the United States alone, over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year. Cell-phones are part of a     1     (grow) mountain of electronic wastes like computers and personal digital assistants.     2     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 weight of electronic goods     3     (represent) by precious metals was relatively small in comparison to total waste, the concentration (含量) of gold and other precious metals was     4     (high) in so-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals. Aside     5     that, electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals. Even when the machines are recycled and the     6     (harm) metals are removed, the recycling process is often carried out in poor countries where many poisonous substances     7     (allow) to escape into the environment, or in practically uncontrolled ways     8     make more wastes generated.

The U. S. Environmental Protection Agency notes that most wastes are so dangerous that the tough     9     (restrict) are supposed to be put on the production, distribution, and use of electronic products, aimed     10     (tackle) this problem to the greatest extent.

Effective measures such as building a botanic garden and a fish breeding (繁殖) station     1    (take) to protect the biodiversity in China's southwestern Baihetan Dam area so far. As the world's second-largest hydropower project, the Baihetan Dam began generating power on June 28, 2021. Among the top concerns about the dam     2    (be) the biodiversity (生物多样性) in the local region. But many local residents believe that worry is unnecessary.

Ever since experts and engineers got down to     3    (construct) the Baihetan Dam, local villagers like Lu Jieheng have been signing up to help take care of a wide range of     4     (plant). "The local birds and fish have also been well protected throughout the entire process of dam building." said Lu.

Chen Yang, a local official, said a lot of work had been done     5    (preserve) the environment, especially the biodiversity in the area. "We built a botanic garden     6     aim is to provide a home for trees more than 100 years old transplanted from the area which will be flooded," said Chen. "We have also built a fish breeding station and established a fish collection system that moves fish     7     the lower side of the dam to the upper side."

The works will continue down the road. Chen said he and his colleagues would carry on scientific research work on ecological restoration, including soil     8     (improve) on high and steep slopes, which would be     9     (high) significant for the dry-hot valley regions and the entire Jinsha River Basin in     10     long run.

On the afternoon of August 19, 2019, smoke and ash（灰）    1    （fill）the sky over Sao Paulo, Brazil. The smoke was coming from the Amazon rain forest, hundreds of miles away. Some parts of the rain forest had been burning for several     2     (week). Brail sent 44, 000 troops to fight against the fires. On August 25, it was reported that there had been 80, 626 fires in Brazil so far, many in the Amazon.

The Amazon is the     3     (large) rain forest in the world and it is home to millions of plants and animals and 30 million people. It is also important to the health of our earth. Its trees take in CO₂, from the air and replace it with O₂,     4     helps slow climate change.

Experts believe the fires were set     5     purpose. In general, it's against the law     6     (start) a fire in the rain forest.     7     it's not uncommon. Farmers regularly do so. They clear land so they can plant crops and raise cattle for beef production.

Since 1978, an area of some 289, 000 square miles of the Amazon     8    （destroy）. Deforestation（滥伐森林）reached the top in     9     early 2000s. Then, in 2004, the Brazilian government began to punish     10     (serious)the man-made fires and deforestation. This greatly slowed tree loss in the area.
