廢物的回收利用-Recycling Waste

　　Recycling Waste

　　European countries are now making an active effort to reuse materials more than they used to. This is called recycling. Materials such as paper, glass or metal are collected, sorted, treated and used again. Old papers are recycled. The ink is taken out by a special technique, and new paper is made. Oil from fatories and motor oil can be treated and resued. In many cities in Europe rubbish is collected separately. Empty glass bottles are collected, and the glass is broken and reused for making new bottles.

　　Developing countries all over the world already recycle materials. In India, waste paper is collected, sorted and recycled. Paper bags are made from unsold newspapers. In Egypt, waste is collected by rubbish cars and sorted. Leftover food is given to pigs and vegetable matter is put back onto the fields. In some Asian countries, shoes are made from the rubber of old car tyres.

　　The Chinese government is also working hard against poilution. More than 60,000 small factories which seriously polluted the enrivonment were shut down in 1996. Many materials like used rubber gloves, glass bottles, cans and other containers are treated or recycled. However, no single country can save the environment alone.

　　[點(diǎn)評(píng)]

　　廢物的回收利用是發(fā)達(dá)國家在發(fā)展過程中總結(jié)出來的一條節(jié)約能源并能改善環(huán)境的非常好的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。作者具體列舉了廢物是如何被再生利用的，并介紹了發(fā)展中國家也在做這方面的努力。最后一段的開頭講中國政府在污染方面加大力度，并關(guān)閉了60 000家小廠子似乎與主題聯(lián)系不夠緊密。

　　廢物的回收利用

　　歐洲國家現(xiàn)在正在積極努力比過去更多地重復(fù)使用舊材料。這叫做廢物的回收再用。像紙張、玻璃或金屬這類材料，收集起來加以分類，經(jīng)過處理后重新使用。舊報(bào)紙可以回收再用，用特殊的技術(shù)清除油墨，再造新的紙張。工廠的廢油和發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)的機(jī)油，都可以經(jīng)過處理重新利用。在歐洲的許多城市里，垃圾是分類收集的。把空的玻璃瓶收集起來，打碎后再用來制造新瓶子。

　　全世界的發(fā)展中國家都已經(jīng)在回收利用材料。在印度，把廢紙收集起來加以分類，再經(jīng)過制造加以利用。沒有賣出去的報(bào)紙用來制成紙袋。在埃及，用垃圾車收集廢物，再加以分類。殘菜剩飯用來喂豬，蔬菜的根莖用來肥田。亞洲有些國家用舊的汽車輪胎制造鞋。

　　中國政府也在致力于反污染斗爭。曾經(jīng)嚴(yán)重污染環(huán)境的6萬多家小工廠已于1996年關(guān)閉。許多剃料，如用過的橡膠手套、玻璃瓶、罐頭盒子和其他容器都經(jīng)過回收處理。但是，沒有任何一個(gè)國家能單獨(dú)來拯救環(huán)境的。
