求牛人做个阅读理解?Each day every person in the United States throws away more than five pounds of garbage.There is more garbage now than ever before and most of it is made up of the packages and cans in which we buy our food.The traditional way of getting rid of solid wastes is quickly becoming inadequate.Many cities are experimenting with newer ways of handling their growing piles of garbage.One of these new ways is “recycling”.Through recycling usable materials are taken out of garbage and made into something else.These usable parts of garbage are put through the cycle of going from a raw material to a finished produce again.In some cities a machine called Hydrapulper is being used to help recycle garbage.A Hydrapulper is like a huge mixing machine.The garbage is dropped onto a conveyor belt that feeds the machine.At the same time,water is pumped into the Hydrapulper.With a mixing action,the Hydrapulper throws out the heavy metal objects that can later be sold as waste metal,the rest of the garbage----paper,food,plastic,rubber,glass,wood,leaves,and other items----falls apart.The waste is then mixed with water and carried to another piece of equipment where glass,sand,and pieces of metal are thrown out.With the Hydrapulper,up to 95 percent of the original garbage is made again useful.The rest is turned into furnace ash.41.Traditionally,garbage is thought to be ______________.A.able to recycle but difficult to handleB.something that can be reusedC.a raw material for making new productsD.a worthless burden to big cities42.How does the Hydrapulper work?A.It pumps water into garbage and mixes it.B.It separates garbage into useful and useless things.C.It collects heavy metal objects for selling.D.it throws away glass and sand from garbage.43.A lot of cities are trying new ways to treat garbage mainly because _______.A.they need new materials made from garbageB.they are short of useful materialsC.their traditional way of dealing with wastes is not efficientD.their environment is becoming more and more dirty44.What is done to the wastes that are useless when the new way is used?A.They are thrown away.B.They are stored in a certain place.C.They are turned into solid objects.D.They are burnt.45.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To introduce how the Hydrapulper deals with garbage.B.To tell what the writer thinks of idea of getting rid of solid wastes.C.To explain why garbage should be recycled.D.To describe an experiment in which a Hydrapulper is used

Silence is unnatural to man．He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness．In between he does all he can to make a noise in the world, and he fears silence more than anything else．Even his conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence．If he is introduced to another person, and a number of pauses occur in the conversation, he regards himself as a failure, a worthless person, and is full of envy of the emptiest headed chatterbox（喋喋不休的人）.He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly, but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure（蜡塑人像）. The aim of conversation is not, for the most part,
it is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted, differe there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito （蚊子）.But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person. Most buzzing, fortunately, is pleasant to the ear, and some of it is pleasant even to the mind. He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing -with his neighbors. Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new. Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people's ears, though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel.
