7 . In Plastic China, a documentary shot by Wang Jiuliang, Chen Feng (not his real name) makes his living by recycling plastic waste imported from developed countries. His family lives among the garbage and his young son often finds “toys” around him. Used plastic injectors (注射器) are his favorite.

China was once the world’s biggest recipient of overseas trash. Many people like Chen Feng work at centers recycling imported waste, also called foreign garbage.

From January 1, 2021, China made a sweeping ban on all imports of solid waste. The waste products from overseas on Chinese territory are also banned.

China began importing solid waste in 1980 when the country didn’t have enough raw materials (原材料). The recycling of imported waste helped to fill that gap. Recycling foreign trash, such as plastics, paper and metals, has supported the development of China’s manufacturing (制造业的) sector and furthered its economy. After being processed, garbage can be turned into materials that can be used to make products, such as chairs and bags.

However, waste that can’t be used is either burned or buried, while processing recyclables also leads to water, air and land pollution, as well as sickness. In Guiyu, Guangdong Province, once China’s largest disposal center for electronic trash, over 90 per cent of kids showed high levels of lead in their blood, according to a report that tracked the health of local children in the years from 2006 to 2013.

In addition, about 10 billion tons of solid waste are produced annually in China, which also has to be handled appropriately. According to China Daily, the ban taking effect in 2021 is the culmination (高潮) of policies introduced since 2017 to phase out the import of solid waste. Since 2017, the volume of imported waste has fallen by 68 per cent, from 42 million to 13 million tons in 2019.

“Realizing the goal of zero imports of solid waste is in sight,” said Qiu Qiwen, from the Ministry of Ecology and Environment.

2. What may account for the recycling of imported waste in 1980?

C．Lack of raw materials.	D．The gap of development.

3. What does the fifth paragraph mainly tell us?

A．Importing this waste has brought more risks than benefits.

B．There is a long way to go before electronic trash is removed.

C．Air pollution is the main contributor to kid’s health problems.

D．Recycling garbage has led kids in China to suffer blood problems.
