Try to read as much asyou can. If you are going out, grab a magazine, a book, an article or something to read.

Disposing of waste has been a problem since humans started producing it. As more and morepeople choose to live close together in cities, the waste disposal problem becomes increasinglydifficult.
During the eighteenth century, it was usual for several neighboring towns to get together toselect a faraway spot as a dump site. Residents or trash haulers (垃圾托运者) would transporthousehold rubbish, rotted wood, and old possessions to the site. Periodically some of the trash wasburned and the rest was buried. The unpleasant sights and smells caused no problem because nobodylived close by. Factories, mills, and other industrial sites also had waste to be disposed of. Those located on rivers often just dumped the unwanted remains into the water. Others built huge burnerswith chimneys to deal with the problem.
Several facts make these choices unacceptable to modern society. The first problem isspace. Dumps, which are now called landfills, are most needed in heavily populated areas. Such areas rarely have empty land suitable for this purpose. Property is either too expensive or too close toresidential neighborhoods. Long distance trash hauling has been a common practice, but once farmareas are refusing to accept rubbish from elsewhere, cheap land within trucking distance, of majorcity areas is non-existent. Awareness of pollution dangers has resulted in more strict rules of wastedisposal. Pollution of rivers, ground water, land and air is a price people cannot longer pay to get ridof waste. The amount of waste, however, continues to grow.
Recycling efforts have become commonplace, and many towns require their people to takepart. Even the most efficient recycling programs, however, can hope to deal with only about 50 percent of a city's reusable waste.
46. The most suitable title for this passage would be_________.
A. Places for Disposing Waste
B. Waste Pollution Dangers
C. Ways of Getting Rid of Waste
D. Waste Disposal Problem
47. During the 18th century, people disposed their waste in many ways except for_________.
A. burying it
B. recycling it
C. burning it
D. throwing it into rivers
48. What can be inferred from the third paragraph?
A. Farm areas will continue accepting waste from the city in modern society.
B. There is cheap land to bury waste in modern society.
C. It is difficult to find space to bury waste in modern society.
D. Ways to deal with waste in modem society stay the same.
49. The underlined word in paragraph 3 means_________.
A. wave
B. realization
C. warning
D. appear
50. The main purpose of writing this article is to_________.
A. draw people's attention to waste management
