When throwing away rubbish,do you know which bin it should go into? Have you ever noticed the differently-colored bins on the street.
Some of you might not be able to answer this question. However, it's quite important to know how to sort(分类)your waste. Not knowing how to sort waste can make it harder to save energy and protect the environment. If you don't sort your waste, all of it will go to a landfill and be buried( 埋葬)together. These landfills can take up large areas of ground that could be used for planting trees.The electronic waste you throw away, such as batteries(电池), can pollute the land and groundwater. Other piece of rubbish, like the metal part of a pen, can be used to make into other things if they are properly recycled(循环利用).
With this in mind, our school is now asking every student to form a habit of sorting the waste. Here in our school yard we lay four different colors of rubbish bins for different kinds of rubbish. The red is for harmful waste which includes things like medicine, batteries and so on. The blue is for waste like paper, metal, glass and other things that can be recycled. The green is for kitchen waste which is known as wet waste, such as food and soup left after having meals. The yellow is for other dry waste like plastic bags. Dry waste is not wet, recyclable or harmful.
Now that you know this, perhaps you can do your part to protect the environment and encourage others to sort their waste.

The Internet is a place where we can talk freely. But it is also a place where we pay little attention to whether or not our language ability is becoming poorer.
According to a recent survey by China Youth Daily, more than 76 percent of young people in China said they felt their Chinese language skills have weakened. They don’t use difficult rhetorical technique(修辞手法) as often anymore. It is believed that digital technology and Internet emojis（表情符号） have changed communicating habits
For example, "copy and paste(粘贴)"culture is getting popular. People simply pick up expressions from the Internet without much thought. Many begin to use a fixed set of sentence patterns, such as"Whenever you disagreed with each other, you…”
Cai Xiaojia, a teacher from Zhuzhou, told China Youth Daily that words in general are being used less. For example ,people can share photos online with little need for words to describe them.
This trend continues, it could influence our way of thinking, Peoples Daily noted. When we use expressions without thinking, it means we have become too lazy to express our real feelings. If teenagers continue to use the direct expressions and emojis, they could lose the ability to use words properly.
To improve our language skills, experts suggested that we should read more famous books. "Keep using all kinds of words to show your own feelings, "said Shen Xiaolong, a professor in the Chinese department at Fudan University.
