Shanghai requires its residents (居民) to sort rubbish (1)       four categories (类别), namely recyclable, (2)      , dry and wet waste. If people (3)       to sort their rubbish properly, they can be fined up to 200 yuan.
　　Since the regulation took effect, the amount of total daily waste in Shanghai has been reduced by an average (平均) of 15,500 tons, dropping 26 percent from the end of 2018, (4)       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.
　　The city also (5)       21,000 waste-sorting stations and more than 40,000 waste bins have been dated (更新). The city's waste collection and transportation system is complete, according to the 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 (6)       to rubbish management."

12．　　Have you ever bought Genki Forest (元气森林) sparkling water because it's advertised as "sugar-free"? The company recently said that they were sorry for a misleading advertisement.
　　The company said the drinks are "sucrose-free (零蔗糖)", but this is not the same as "sugar-free". Now the company has changed the words "sugar-free" to "low sugar" on the bottles.
　　In fact, there are many kinds of sugar. Sucrose is just one of them. Other kinds of sugar, such as fructose (果糖) and sugar alcohol (糖醇), are still in Genki Forest drinks. These types of sugar are used as sweeteners (甜味剂). They offer little energy, but a small amount of them can make drinks taste sweet. That's why low-sugar drinks like Genki Forest are popular among people who want to lose weight. They believe that they can not only enjoy sweet drinks but also avoid taking in too much sugar.
　　However, studies find that the sweeteners might make people eat more. When you eat sweet-tasting things, they send your brain a "sweet signal". Then your brain tells your body to prepare itself to take in energy. But since the low-sugar soft drink has little energy, the brain will not receive what it is expecting. At this time, you will feel hungry and start getting energy by eating more food.
　　According to China Daily, drinking too many low-sugar drinks might lead to fatness and many other diseases. It's time for you to think twice when you want to keep up with the fashion.

13．　　The 24th Winter Olympics were held successfully in Beijing this year. There were many great moments during the competitions. What impressed you most?
　　"Welcome to China!" This simple greeting from volunteer Sun Zeyu warmed the heart of US snowboarder (单板滑雪运动员) Tessa Maud at the Olympics opening ceremony (开幕式).

Now he said he really understands the meaning of "you and me" as well as the Olympic spirit of togetherness. "Even though the pandemic (流行病) is going on, we are standing here at Beijing 2022," he said on the show Youth Power(《少年会客厅》).
