逐题讲解
①To make life comfortable, many disposable (一次性的) products are made, such as plastic bags and containers. As a result, a great deal of plastic is thrown away every day, creating a big environmental problem. To solve this problem, we recycle or reuse plastic waste. Here are some examples of amazing creative ways of recycling and reusing plastic.
②In Taiwan, China, there is a building called the EcoARK. Three hundred tons of plastic waste was made into 1.5 million bottle-shaped bricks (砖) to build it. The plastic bricks, even though light in weight, are designed to get through earthquakes and typhoons.
③Another amazing example of recycled plastic is a bridge in Scotland. It’s the world’s longest plastic bridge. Fifty tons of plastic bottles and containers were used to make it. It is so strong that it can hold 44 tons of people and cars. Besides, it doesn’t rust (生锈) or need regular painting.
④There is also a sailboat named Plastiki. It was built from about 12,000 plastic bottles and weighs about 9 tons. It sailed all the way across the Pacific Ocean from San Francisco to Sydney! The purpose of the journey was to make people know that millions of tons of plastic are floating in and polluting the ocean.
⑤Next time, before you throw away something plastic, see if it can be recycled, or think of a creative way to reuse it. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a big creation like the examples above. There are many simple, useful things you can do. For example, you can make little holes in the bottom of a plastic bottle and use it to water plants. Or you can cut a bottle in half and use it as a hand shovel. Why don’t you try to come up with some creative ideas of your own?
