It is the end of the road for these broken, outdated and unwanted electronics. Seoul city throws out some 10 tons of e-waste each year, and about a fifth of that arrives at this recycling center. But it is not just about earning profits, says the center’s CEO Ji. It is about protecting the environment.
"Our planet has a limited amount of natural resources," he said. "Our company contributes to a sustainable society, by preserving these materials." Ji says about 90 percent of what is brought here gets recycled. Accumulating large piles of electronic trash is not only a concern in technologically-advanced South Korea
The United Nations reports millions of tons of the world’s e-waste winds up in developing countries. There, poisonous materials like lead and mercury pose a severe health risk. That is despite international agreements that ban the export of discarded electronics.
1. What is the purpose of recycling e-waste in Seoul’s recycling center?
2. Why do international agreements ban the export of discarded electronics?
选项
A、To earn profits only.
B、To protect the environment.
C、To advance electronic technology.
D、To export discarded electronics.
答案
B
解析
新闻引用该回收站CEO的话,指出该中心回收电子垃圾不仅是为了赚取利润,也是为了保护环境(not just about earning profits...about protecting the environment)。B符合新闻内容。回收电子垃圾并不只是为了获取利润,故A错误。C“提高电子技术”和D“出口丢弃的电子产品”均是利用新闻原词作干扰,不是该中心的目的。
