According to the Mayor, the benefits of recycling plastic and glass were outweighed by the price—recycling cost twice as much as disposal. Meanwhile, low demand for the materials meant that much of it was ending up in landfills anyway. NYC closed its last landfill and brought in a more efficient system, with more famous service providers than it had used previously. Debates over the benefits of recycling started in 1996 when a writer called John Tierney said recycling is garbage. According to him, Recycling programs offer mainly shortterm benefits to a few related groups while diverting money from real social and environmental problems. It doubles energy consumption and pollution while costing taxpayers more money than dealing with old garbage. Recycling may be the most wasteful activity in modern America. 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和主旨大意兩個題型的考查，是一篇人生感悟類閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行推理，歸納，從而選出正確答案。 （4）考查主旨大意。這些照片幫助我理解了為什么。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。D.The world will never be peacefulB.Those pictures showed that people never worried about their future.（4）What is the best title of the article？ A.All those terrible things that worried the author actually didn39。The world was full of terrible things that could not be solved.B.D.Worried.B.Indifferent.s first reaction to his father39。What upset him is whether there is a future for the author39。s home.C.He was upset about which college for the author to go to.B.I believe that my generation will see better things, too that we will witness the time when AIDS is cured and cancer is defeated.

I walked on and on for what seemed like hours. I was sure my guardian angel was whispering in my ear to turn around and head back home but I was stubborn and even a bit stupid, so I walked on. When I was a boy there were no smart phones. Computers were something you saw on STAR TREK(星際航行), and our television only got one channel clearly. Still, I was never bored.
