30、ina refuses to take the West s recycling,” reported the New York Times. Caixin Global was the darkest of them all, asking “ Will China s ban on plastic waste imports choke the world?” Reading those headlines, one could get the impression that the world would soon come to an end.

31、? China s! On January 1, the policy that banned 24 kinds of recyclable trash from being imported to China came into effect. The world s garbage dump had closed its doors. For years, industrial countries including Japan, Australia, America and many European countries relied on China to solve their wa
32、ste problem. The EU exported 86 percent of its plastic waste to China. In total, China shouldered 56 percent of the world s plastic waste. I remember that during my undergraduate studies in the Swiss town of Fribourg, my roommates and I diligently collected plastic, cardboard and metal trash in sepa
33、rate bags. Once a month, we carried it to our community recycling station. Little did we know that most of our waste first had to be shipped to the other side of the world to be recycled, using fossil fuels and producing CO2. China bought our waste from us so we would not have to deal with it. Very
34、convenient! For us, it was out of sight, out of mind. For China, it was a lucrative business It s double win, at least until recently. However, the fact that China has now put a hold on waste imports means that they are getting a grip on their domestic waste quality, making the disposal and recyclin
35、g processes more effective. The industrial nations, on the other hand, now have the opportunity to rethink recycling and face the waste problem instead of exporting it. I hope that China s ban is a wake-up call for many to see the absurd results of globalization and blind consumerismunlimited econom
36、ic growth with limited resources. Perhaps those dark headlines need to become true for us to realize the overall importance of our global waste problem. 28. According to the author, .

China is growing stronger D These days it is hard to walk the streets without running into someone who is anxiously looking at their wrist to see if they are on target to reach the magic 10,000 steps. Is it really a goal worth figh
40、ting for, or might there be something better? For the truth about getting Fit, I went to a factory in Sheffield with Professor Rob Copeland from Sheffield Hallam University. Our aim was to do a small experiment in which we would compare the benefits and ease of doing 10,000 steps against something c
41、alled, “ Active 10” . With Active 10 you don t need to count steps. You simply aim to do three brisk (轻快的 ) 10-minute walks a day. Our small group of volunteers was fitted with activity monitors so we could not only monitor what they did, but also how actively they did it. First, a normal day s acti
42、vity was measured. Rob then split them into two groups. One was asked to hit the 10, 000-step target- around five milesin a day, while the other group was asked to do three sessions of “ Active 10” which adds up to around 1.5 milesmore like 3,000 steps. When we looked at the volunteers results, two
43、out of the three asked to do 10,000 steps had managed to hit their target. But they had all struggled. The Active 10 group, on the other hand, had found it relatively easy. So 10,000 steps was harder to achievebut which activity was better for health? Prof Copeland had analysed the data from their t
44、racking monitors and he said the findings were very clear. The Active 10 group actually did 30 % more moderate (温和的 ) to active physical activity than the 10,000-step group, even though they moved for less time. So three short brisk walks were easier to fit into the day and better for health. I thou
45、ght that was really interesting and I found it very encouraging, because I really don t like doing 10,000 steps. To start doing some Active 10s in your day, you can go to the NHS website where you can download a free Public Health England app. It is a good way to see how much brisk walking you re do
