This is an old story. It was first told long ago. A rich man wanted to make a journey to another town. He was a businessman. He wanted to take things to sell. He also wanted to take some gold to buy some things with. He decided to take ten servants with him. They would carry the things to sell and the food to eat on the journey. 

He was a kind man. He said to one of his servants, “You are the smallest, the thinnest and the weakest of all my servants. You cannot carry a heavy load (負(fù)擔(dān)). You may choose the lightest load to carry.” The servant thanked his master (主人). He pointed to the biggest load. This was bread for them to eat on the journey. 

“You are foolish,” said his master. “That is the biggest and heaviest load.” But the servant lifted up the load cheerfully and the journey began. They walked for four hours. Then they stopped for a rest. They all ate some of the bread. Then there was less bread for the servant to carry. The servant’s load grew smaller and lighter every day. At the end of the journey, the smallest servant had nothing to carry.

When your pen is broken, you think that's the end of its life. You throw it away. It then joins tons of other rubbish that is becoming a big problem in cities. This happens in other countries, too. Most Americans are making 7 pounds (3.17kg) of rubbish a day. So, an American makes about 102 tons of rubbish in a lifetime.

If you simply throw away that broken pen, it goes to a landfill (垃圾填埋場(chǎng)) and is buried with other rubbish. To prevent polluting the groundwater, workers cover the rubbish with soil and keep it dry. And your pen will stay there for a long time, without having further use. But it could have a better place to stay in -the recycling bin. Have you ever noticed the different colors of rubbish bins in the street? Many cities in China have been running a waste-sorting campaign (垃圾分類(lèi)運(yùn)動(dòng)). "They divide rubbish into "recyclable waste" and unrecyclable waste". Recycling waste can save energy, reduce (減少) greenhouse gas and keep landfill space free for unrecyclable waste.

Take your pen as an example. At the recycling factory, its metal parts could be taken out and reused to make other things.

But according to the experts, recycling is not enough. Making less waste should be put in the first place. They think that the best thing to do is just to keep using your things for as long as you can.

1.How much rubbish are most Americans making every day?

____________________

2.How should we deal with broken pens in order to reuse them?

____________________

3.What are the advantages of recycling waste?

____________________

4.Which parts of the pen can be recycled?

____________________

5.In the experts opinions, what should we do to make less waste?

____________________
