On April 2nd，2016，an east China highway pile﹣up has killed three people and injured 31 others．That day was the first day of a three﹣day national holiday marking the Tomb﹣Sweeping Day（清明节）．
Two people died in a local hospital where nine others are being treated．Another person died after treatment failed in a larger hospital in Wuxi where 22 remain hospitallized，Changzhou traffic police updated on its official microblog account at Weibo．com．
The accident happened at the Changzhou section of the highway linking Shanghai and Nanjing．It drew public attention as people began posting photos and videos on Chinese social media WeChat and Weibo．Images showed dozens of trucks，buses and cars crashed into each other．People were standing on the top of the vehicles（运载工具）．
Local police told Xinhua Press that at least two trucks，three buses and 20 cars were involved．Rainy and foggy weather caused poor visibility and slippery mads．
What's more，it was difficult for ambulances（救护车）to get to the scene of the accident because the life emergency lane（生命通道）was filled with vehicles so that the doctors couldn't get there to save the injured．
The Ministry（部长）of Public Security told traffic departments nationwide to keep a look out for vehicles using the emergency lane occupancy．
All highways in China leave the right lane as the emergency lane．Some drivers，however，pay no attention to this rule．Therefore，the police call on drivers to follow the rule strictly and offer the injured more hope of being saved．
The ministry also asked the police to watch the traffic more carefully so as to quickly discover the potential（潜在的）danger．The police have decided to add electronic monitoring instruments to catch the violations and heavily finedrivers for it．

As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information，do people remember less？if you know your computer will store information，why do you store it in your own personal memory，your brain？Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.
In a recent study，Professor Betsy Sparrow made some experiments（实验）.She and her research team wanted to know how the Internet is changing memory.
In the first experiment，they asked two groups of people to put 40 unimportant facts into a computer.The first group of people understood that the computer would store the information.The second group understood that the computer would not store it.Later，the second group remembered the information better.People in the first group knew they could find the information again，so they did not try to remember it.
In the second experiment，the researchers gave people facts to remember，and told them where to find the information on the Internet.The information was in an exact in an exact computer folder（文件夹）.Surprisingly，people later remember where the folder is better than the facts.When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information.However，they remember how to find it.This is called "transitive memory （交互记忆）".
According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet.Instead，computer users are developing stronger transitive memories；that is，people are learning how to organize a lot of information so that they are able to get it at a later date.This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less clever，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.

A.People organize the information like a computer.
B.People remember how to find the information.

D.People keep the information in mind.
（4）What's Professor Betsy Sparrow's conclusion（结论）？

If your pencil box is broken，the batteries（电池）in your flashlights run out，or you have some leftover food，how will you deal with these things？You will probably throw them all into one rubbish bin.But actually，we need to sort（分类）all the rubbish separately.If you don't sort your rubbish，all of it will go to a special place where it is buried（埋藏）together.As a result，it will take up some fields.Some rubbish will pollute the groundwater.Some rubbish that can be reused will be wasted.
In recent years，some Chinese cities have been working hard on rubbish sorting.
Shanghai has called on all the people living in this city to sort their rubbish into four groups：wet，recyclable，harmful and dry.Wet waste is known as household waste.They are things you don't want but pigs can eat.Paper，metal，glass，plastic and other things that can be reused are recyclable waste.Harmful waste includes thins like medicine，batteries.Finally，any waste that is not wet，recyclable or harmful will go to the "dry waste" bin.
Many other Chinese cities are also using this way to sort their rubbish.For example，Deyang has been sorting its rubbish into the same four groups since several years ago.Students in Deyang have already received waste﹣sorting guidebooks.They have studied these books and known how to sort the rubbish.
China is now improving its waste﹣sorting efforts.There is still a long way to go.But it's never too late to learn how to sort your rubbish rightly.We should take an active part in it.
