Too Late to Regret It

When I was a junior， I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn't tall or good-looking， but he was very nice， attractive and athletic. He had something that I admired very much. He was natural， warm， and sincere.

I disregarded (不顾) my parents' disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from my dorm every morning， and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus， or sunbathe (晒太阳) on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm. He came from a poor family， but in order to make me happy， he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me. Our fellow students looked up to him as a role model， and the girls envied (妒忌) me. He wasn't a local， but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.

However， when I got a part-time job during the summer vacation， people began giving me a lot of pressure， saying that a pretty， intelligent girl like me should find a better guy to spend time with. This was also what my family thought. He spent the summer in his hometown， so I was all by myself. When he got back， I began finding fault with him. But his big heart and warmth soon drove all unpleasant thoughts away. However， I had no idea how badly I had hurt him and that things would get worse.

I had a good part-time job off campus that paid pretty well. With my good performance at school， I also got admission to graduate school at one of China's best universities. He， on the other hand， did not do so well at school or at work. I had to worry about his living expenses， job and scores.

Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him. Then we had a quarrel last June~ He was in great pain， and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away.

Graduation time was drawing near， and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown. He said that he couldn't put up with me anymore. I was shocked and looked at him in despair.

True love happens only once， but I found it out too late.

Recycling Around the World

Recycling is one of the best environmental success stories of the late 20th century. But we could do more. People must not see recycling as fashionable， but essential.

The Japanese are very good at recycling because they live in a crowded country~

They do not have much space. They do not want to share their limited space with rubbish

But even so， Tokyo area alone is estimated to have three million tons of leftover rubbish at present.

In 1996， the United States recycled and composted (制成肥料) 57 million tons of waste (27% of the nation's solid waste)。 This is 57 million tons of waste which did not go into landfills and incinerators (焚化炉)。 In doing this， 7，000 rubbish collection programmes and recycling centres helped the authorities.

In Rockford， a city in Illinois， US， its officials choose one house each week and check its garbage (废物)。 If the garbage does not contain an newspapers or aluminium (铝) cans， then the resident of the house gets a prize of at least $1，000.

In Japan， certain cities give children weekly supplies of tissue paper and toilet paper in exchange for a weekly collection of newspapers.

In one year Britain recycles：

· 1 out of every 3 newspapers.

· 1 out of every 4 glass bottles and jars (罐子)。

· 1 out of every 4 items of clothing.

· 1 out of every 3 aluminium drink cans.

In 1999， Hong Kong transported 1.3 million tons of waste to mainland China for recycling. Around 535，000 tons of waste were recycled in Hong Kong itself.

Over half the things we throw away could be recycled. That means we could recycle

10 times as much as we do now.

However， recycling needs a lot of organisation and special equipment. Also， there is not much use for some recycled material.
