Although the idea seems a little unrealistic （不现实的），it is necessary．According to a new report，American people produce the largest amount of the litter in the world．Each person produces almost 4.6pounds of litter every day．More than half of the litter which is put into landfills is harmful．Actually，this is bad for the environment．Besides this，more landfills（填埋场） are needed．
"Nobody wants to have a landfill lying near his house，"said Jon D．Johnson from the Environmental Protection Agency，which helps to carry out "zero waste" activity．"There are not enough landfills，so we can't put all our litter into them．We should try to recycle it as much as we can．"

Wechat is popular among us，but if someone deletes you or blocks（屏蔽）you on it，does it mean you've made him or her angry？
It depends．
Maybe you have just left messages too often without much valuable information．For example，the questions are those like "how are u？""what are u doing？""do u love me？？"too often．You know，people may feel bored after answering such kinds of questions time after time．
Another possible reason may be that you've sent something unpleasant to your friend or in your friend circle．I just blocked one of my middle school classmates yesterday because she was trying to sell fake goods in the friend circle，and I hate it quite much．
Some people delete the one's name from friends' list because they no longer want to see it （maybe ex﹣boyfriend or ex﹣girlfriend）and they don't want the one to see their "Moments"（动态） on WeChat （maybe they publish very private pictures or life or thoughts they don't want to share with him or her．）
So why you are blocked may depend on his or her mood or preference （喜好），and the reasons a person gets blocked are various from person to person．So I suggest you to write an email or make a phone call to that person if he or she really means a lot to you to see why he or she is dissatisfied with you，and to find out how you can make up for the case．
（1）From paragraph 3，we can know if you are blocked that is because ．
A．you are asking too many boring questions
B．your friend is angry
C．your friend doesn't like answering questions
D．your friend has no time to reply
（2）The underlined word "flake" in the passage probably means ．
A．令人喜爱的
B．真实的
C．完美的
D．假冒的
（3）In paragraph 5，the underlined word "it" refers to ．
A．the goods
B．the name
C．the private life
D．the friend circle
（4） causes of being deleted or blocked are mentioned in the passage．
A．4
B．2
C．3
D．5
（5）Which is the best title for the passage？
A．Friend Circle
B．Why Are You Blocked？
C．A Popular Way of Communication
D．How to Make Your Friend Satisfied．

In 1901，an Austrian scientist discovered that there are four types of blood．He named them A，B，AB
and O．People have one of these four types．Blood type O is the most common around the world．Blood type A is the second most common，and blood type AB is the least common．
In 1927，a Japanese doctor found that people with different blood types have different personalities （性格），too．He said that people with type A blood are usually calm and serious；
people with type B blood are cheerful and outgoing； people with type O blood are generous and honest； while those with type AB blood are often caring and talented．
More recently，a doctor in the United States wrote a book that connects blood types with what people eat．The book suggests people with type O blood should eat more meat and less bread．A diet for people with type A blood includes more vegetables．His book，Eat Right for Your Type，has been a hit with people who want to lose weight．However，Dr．Peter D'Adamo believes that eating food that matches a person's blood type will make the person healthier in other ways，too．
