13、 painSweden produces about 4. 4 million tons of waste a year, but only 1% makes its way to the landfill. When it comes to waste management, Sweden is ahead of its time. How has Sweden done it?In Sweden, everyone works hard to make the environment free of waste. People are taught to recycle from a ve
14、ry young age. They are asked to return cans and bottles to supermarkets. The government places recycling stations no more than 300 meters from homes, schools, and offices. These all help waste management in Sweden much easier and more practical. The country also rewards those who recycle. In 1984, S
15、weden started the panta system. It encourages people to recycle bottles in exchange for money. The process is very simple. People put their items into a machine. Each piece has a small barcode that tells the machine how much it is worth. People can collect a voucher for that amount by pressing a gre
16、en button, or they can donate the money to charity by pressing a yellow button. In 2021, the Swedish recycled 1.8 billion bottles and cans by using panta system. Sweden recycles nearly 50% of what it throws away. But what about the other half? _ Altogether Sweden has 34 waste-to-energy plants that p
17、rovide 1, 445, 000 homes with heat and 780, 000 homes with electricity. Changing waste into energy has reduced Swedens CO2 emissions by 2.2 million tons a year. In 2016, Sweden had started running out of trash, so it began importing waste from other countries. It not only keeps the plants working, b
18、ut also lets Sweden make much money. That is what makes Sweden different from the other countries. Swedens waste management has made a great success. But still, the country is wondering how it can do more. They hope to see a day when landfills are a thing of the past.19The word “These” in Para. 2 re

But now Digital Technology is offering us an opportunity to listen to the sounds in th
22、e nature in powerful ways, making us get closer to the worlds of animals and plants. All around the nature, there are sounds that we struggle to pick up and understand. Elephants, for example, communicate with each other using infrasound, a sound far below our human hearing range. Coral in the ocean
23、 also communicates with each other through sound waves, with one purpose of attracting baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow. This is a shocking fact as coral doesnt have any ears!To pick up sounds humans are normally unable to hear, scientists have placed listening devices in these env
24、ironments. Researchers have attached tiny microphones to honeybees and turtles, and stuck listening posts that can receive different sound waves from coral reefs and trees. These devices are controlled by computers and networked with digital sensors and satellites. When interconnected, these digital
25、 devices work like a hearing aid: enabling humans to observe and record natures sounds beyond the limits of our own listening ability. After the sounds are recorded, AI is then able to determine their meanings. With this technology, humans can not only understand the animals, but also communicate ba
26、ck to them. For example, a team of researchers in Germany decoded the honeybees behavior with AI. Then they taught tiny robots how to do the honeybee dance. Using these dancing machines, the scientists were able to order the honeybees to stop moving, and to communicate where to fly to collect a spec
27、ific nectar. In addition to the possibility of speaking with animals, the research could also be used to create a form of healing for animals and plants. Thats to say, in the near future, scientists might be able to get coral to grow in certain areas by playing “healthy reef” sounds, which could hel
28、p to heal some of the damage we have caused. Now, Digital Technology provides a new way for humans to listen to the vivid sounds all around us. The dream of allowing humans to socialize with different animals and plants throughout the nature is being on its way.23According to the passage, now people
29、 can use Digital Technology to _.Asee corals earsBlisten to the sounds of treesCplay with elephantsDdance with honeybees themselves24Which is the right order to pick up the sounds from the nature for scientists?a.
