In the library,I found my way into the \off the shelf at random.The cover of a boo caught my eye.It presented a picture of a beagle.I had recently had a beagle,the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child.He was my secret sharer,but one morning,he was gone,given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him.I never forgot my beagle.

There on the boo's cover was a beagle which looed identical to my dog.I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover.My eyes ran across the title,Amos,the Beagle with a Plan.Unnowingly,I had read the title.Without opening the boo,I borrowed it from the library for the summer.

Under the shade of a bush,I started to read about Amos.I read very,very slowly with difficulty.Though pages were turned slowly,I got the main idea of the story about a dog who,lie mine,had been separated from his family and who finally found his way bac home.That dog was my dog,and I was the little boy in the boo.At the end of the story,my mind continued the final scene of reunion,on and on,until my own lost dog and I were,in my mind,running together.

In the United States alone,over 100 million cell-phones are thrown away each year.Cell-phones are part of a growing mountain of electronic waste lie computers and personal digital assistants.The electronic waste stream is increasing three times taster than traditional garbage as a whole.

Electronic devices contain valuable metals such as gold and silver.A Swiss study reported that while the weight of electronic goods represented by precious metals was relatively small in comparison to total waste,the concentration（含量）of gold and other precious metals was higher in So-called e-waste than in naturally occurring minerals.

Electronic wastes also contain many poisonous metals.Even when the machines are recycled and the harmful metals removed,the recycling process often is carried out in poor countries,in practically uncontrolled ways which allow many poisonous substances to escape into the environment.

Creating products out of raw materials creates much more waste material,up to 100 times more,than the material contained in the finished products.Consider again the cell-phone,and imagine the mines that produced those metals,the factories needed to mae the bo and pacaging（包装）it came in.Many wastes produced in the producing process are harmful as well.

The U.S Environmental Protection Agency notes that most waste is dangerous in that\

distribution,and use of products-as well as management of the resulting waste-all result in greenhouse gas release.\Individuals can reduce their contribution by creating less waste at the start-for instance,buying reusable products and recycling.

In many countries the concept of etended producer responsibility is being considered or has been put in place as an incentive（动机）for reducing waste.If producers are required to tae bac pacaging they use to sell their products,would they reduce the pacaging in the first place?

Governments' incentive to require producers to tae responsibility for the pacaging they produce is usually based on money.Why,they as,should cities or towns be responsible for paying to deal with the bubble wrap（气泡垫）that encased your television?

From the governments' point of view,a primary goal of laws requiring etended producer responsibility is to transfer both the costs and the physical responsibility of waste management from the government and ta-payers bac to the producers.

What eactly is intelligence?There aren't any easy answers.Despite the progress that has been made in genetics and psychology,human intelligence has remained one of the most controversial areas of modern science,until now,that is,for the discovery of a gene（基因）lined to intelligence has made the eperts thin again.

Robert Plomin of the Institute of Psychiatry in London and his colleagues in the US have been looing into genetic mae-up.From their research,they have discovered that a slightly different gene is more common
