【題目】A new “smart bin” could mean the end of environment-conscious families spending hours sorting tins, cartons, bottles, and cardboard for recycling.

The invention, which can help sort rubbish into recycling categories without needing people to operate. It is being trialed in Poland and is set to go on sale in UK within a few years.

The bin, designed by start-up company Bin.E, recognizes different type of waste via a system positioned inside the bin which uses sensors, image recognition and artificial intelligence. Once waste is placed inside, the camera and sensor identify its type and place it in one of the smaller bins. Then it compresses the waste so it occupies less space.

It is thought that the bin could be stocked by department stores such as John Lewis, which said it is introducing more new hi-tech recycling bins. Matt Thomas, a buyer at John Lewis, gave us the reason, “We’ve recently seen a jump in specialist bins sales, with a 25 percent increase in the last few months alone. We have noticed our customers are becoming more and more focused on sustainability. In response to this demand, we are really excited to introduce a smart bin this autumn/winter season-designed to make recycling more efficient and functional for the everyday home."

Bin.E's official release on the market will take place in 2018. However, at first only a larger version designed for offices will be available.The office bin will sell at 430 while customers will need to pay a 107 subscription fee for an accompanying smartphone app, which hooks them up with collection services. A spokesman at Bin.E said that home version of the bin will be cheaper and will not include a monthly payment.

They added: “After the office version, we plan to create an outdoor version and later the home version. We decided to go for the outdoor version for public areas first because it is more difficult to organize an efficient waste segregating system than in our homes.”

1What do we know about about a new “smart bin” from the first paragraph?

A. It works automatically.

B. It has been used widely.

C. It is easy to operate.

D. It is very expensive.

2What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. The waste.

B. The camera.

C. The bin.

D. The sensor.

3Why is John Lewis introducing more new hi-tech recycling bins?

A. To change people’s behaviour,

B. To satisfy increasing demands.

C. To popularize new technology.

D. To make them more famous.

4Where will the first version of new “smart bin” be used according to Bin. E’s official?

C. In the open air.

D. In the office.

【題目】Parents usually teach their children how to cross the street safety, by looking both ways for cars.1 The city of Honolulu, Hawaii wants everyone to learn that lesson.

2Beginning on October 24, you will be fined from $ 15 to $ 99 if you step into a Honolulu street while looking at your phone. Honolulu is the first major U.S. city to ban what is called “distracted walking”. It recently passed a law in a seven to two vote. The law says, “No pedestrian shall cross a street or highway while viwing a mobile electronic device.’ 3

The law includes all electronic devices with screens: cellphone, tablets, gaming devices, digital cameras and laptop computers.4 Pedestrians may use such devices in the street to call emergency services and rescue workers, such as firefighters and police officers.

Pedestrian deaths have been increasing as the use of cellphones rises. The Governors Highway Safety Association, or GHSA, says pedestrian deaths in the United States increased 25 percent 2010 and 2015. That trend continued in 2016 with the number of pedestrian deaths rising to almost 6000, 11% higher than in 2015.

5The state of Washington was the first to outlaw distracted driving back in 2007. Now, 46 other states as well as D. C. , Puerto Rico, Guam and the U. S. Virgin Islands, have laws against texting while driving.

If you etill want to text while walking, you could avoid being fined in Honolulu by using a voice-controlled digital assistant such as Siri or Google Assistant. Or you could just wait until you are again, safely, off the street.

A. The law does permit an exception.

B. Other U. S. cities may follow Honolulu

C. But do they also teach them to put away their cellphones?

D. Texting while crossing the street will soon be banned in the city.

E. Do you like Honolulu’s new law that bans texting while walking?

F. In other words, do not look at a screen when you cross the street or you could be fined.

G. The law’s creator hope it will lower the number of people hit and killed by cars in the city.
