15．　　If you live in Shanghai, you might have taken a "lesson" in sorting garbage (垃圾分类). As China's first city to carry out strict rules on garbage sorting and recycling, Shanghai requires its residents to sort garbage into four kinds, namely recyclable, harmful, dry and wet waste. If people fail to sort their garbage properly, they can be fined (罚款) up to 200 yuan.
　　Since the rule took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average of 15500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, while the average daily weight of recyclables hits 4, 500 tons, five times higher than the end of 2018, according to the Shanghai Landscaping and City Appearance Administrative Bureau. "Proper waste sorting protects the environment and saves natural resources." said Deng Jianping, director of the bureau. "Led by the central government, Shanghai is making efforts to develop long-term solutions to garbage management.

According to the sorting rules, the wet garbage must go in the wet waste bin and the bag must go in the dry waste bin. This separation is necessary, as it makes sure that the wet garbage will decompose properly and become useful organic (有机的) waste, the bureau said. Plastic bags can affect this process. Some people in Shanghai are using paper bags that can biodegrade (生物降解) or plastic containers that can be washed and reused instead of traditional plastic bags, according to Xinhua.

They don't we complex rhetorical technique (修辞手法) as often anymore. It is believed that digital technology and internet memes (表情包) have changed their communication habits.
　　For example, direct expression is a preferred way to communicate online. When one sees something funny, one will simply type "hahaha" or use the "cry-laugh" emoji. Beijing Youth Daily noted. What's more, Cai Xiaojia. a teacher from Fuzhou, told China Youth Daily that words in general are being used less. For instance people can share photos and emojis online with little need for words to describe them.
　　Also, "copy and paste (粘贴)" culture is getting popular. People simply pick up expressions from the internet without much thought. Many begin to use a fixed set of sentence patterns, such as "whenever you disagree with each other, you …"
　　If this trend continues, it could influence our way of thinking, People's Daily noted. When we use expressions without thinking, it means we have become too lazy to express our real feelings. If teenagers are used to casual methods of expression like emojis, they could lose the ability to use words properly.
　　To improve our language skills, experts suggest that we should try to think independently and develop our own language logic. They also suggest that we should read more works of literature(文学). "Keep using different words to show your special feelings, " said Shen Xiaolong, a professor in the Chinese department at Fudan University.
