Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job． Every day trucks come into a city to collect it．Most rubbish is made up of things we can’t eat or use．If we kept these things, we would soon have a mountain of rubbish．
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump．Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole．The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system．The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places．
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish．Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land．Finally , a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump．
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places．The fire burns everything but the metal．Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal．The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus, which looks like black earth．It is rich with kinds of things that feed plants and help make them grow．The underline word “sewage” in the passage means_______

We were standing at the top of a church tower．My father had brought me to this high tower in a small town not far from our home in Rome．I wondered why．
“Look down, Elsa," Father said．I gathered all my courage and looked down．I saw the square in the center of the village．And I saw several streets leading to the square．“See, my dear,”Father said gently．“There is more than one way to the square．Life is like that．If you can't get to the place where you want to go by one road, try another．"
Now I understood why I was there．Earlier that day I had begged my mother to do something about the bad lunches that were served at school．But she refused because she could not believe the lunches were as bad as I said．
When I turned to Father for help, he would not help．Instead, he brought me to this high tower to give me a lesson．By the time we reached home, I had a plan．
At school the next day, I poured my lunch soup into a bottle and brought it home．Then I asked our cook to serve it to Mother at dinner．The plan worked perfectly．She tried one spoonful and sputtered．“The cook must have gone mad!” Quickly I told what I had done, and Mother promised that she would take up the matter of lunches at school the next day!
In the years that followed I often remembered the lesson Father taught me．I began to work as a fashion designer two years ago．I wouldn’t stop working until I tried every possible way．Father’s wise words always remind me that there is more than one way to the square．Father brought Elsa to the top of the church tower to_________________．

North American black bears are shy animals. They are fearful by nature, and will usually run away if they see or hear people. Because of this, it can be difficult for scientists to learnabout these animals.
In order to study black bears, researchers from New Jersey, USA, catch bears and usedrugs to help them go to sleep. Researchers then work out the size and the weight of the bear,take blood to test for diseases(疾病), remove a tooth and take it to the lab to find out its age. Fromthese studies, researchers want to find out how many bears live in New Jersey, how long theylive, and how many babies they produce.
But in Minnesota, USA, researchers study bears that are completely awake. The bears knowthe researchers' voices and they are not afraid of die research team. With the help of a few grapesto keep the bears busy, researchers can touch them to check their hearts, look at theirteeth, and do other jobs.Researchers can also walk or sit with bears for hours and make videos to learn about their everyday lives.
