There are many kinds of music in the world,such as pop music,country music,rock music and so on.But have you heard of grime?It's OK to say no because it's less than 20 years since this kind of music was invented in the UK.
Hip﹣hop and grime are both noisy.They reflect the thoughts of young people.But if you know nothing about underground music culture,it's difficult to tell the differences between them.For example,grime singers sing with strong accents(口音),giving a special feeling to their songs.
Leshurr,known as the"Grime Queen",said that she once tied to hide her accent,for she didn't want people to know where she was from.But one day,she realized she didn't need to change herself just to satisfy other people.There is no doubt that this is the spirit of grime:always be yourself.
There is one more difference between hip﹣hop and grime.Hip﹣hop is mainly about being rich and famous while grime singers pay more attention to social problems like wars and illnesses.
Nowadays,grime has begun to show people its strange beauty.Although grime is only popular with some young people,one thing is for sure:in grime,singers always stay true to themselves.

The Garbage (垃圾) Project started at the University of Arizona in 1973. Since then, the students and teachers in it have studied the modern garbage in different cities.
To study the garbage, the students had to travel to landfills (填埋场) , the places where cities bury (填埋) their garbage. While the students were studying the garbage they wore special clothes. Students were very careful when they opened bags of garbage.
One important thing the students have learned from studying the garbage is that the garbage in landfills disappears very slowly. That was surprising to both the students and many scientists who had thought that about 70% of the garbage in landfills would disappear quickly. Even in cities where it rains a lot, the students found newspapers from 1948, 40﹣year﹣old hot dogs, and vegetables from 1970. And the students also found many more empty bottles of cola than they expected.
How to dispose of our garbage well depends on what kind of garbage it is: regular(普通的) garbage, dangerous materials, or recyclable materials, such as newspapers and glass bottles. Regular garbage goes to regular landfills. Dangerous materials are harmful to people's health and the environment. They shouldn't go into regular landfills.
Homes are full of dangerous waste. One kind of the dangerous waste in homes is batteries. When batteries are buried directly(直接地)in a landfill, they often break open. The poison inside them moves through rain water to the bottom of the landfill. Then it can pollute the natural water in the ground.
Another dangerous waste from homes is motor oil. When people pour old motor oil on the ground or throw it in the garbage, it pollutes the environment.
