专题02新北京冬奥会
Passage1
(2021·安徽六安市·六安一中高一期末)The Tokyo Summer Olympics is going green.The5,000medals Japan has made are more special than most.
One novel focus of the Tokyo Olympics is to be“sustainable”— to avoid using too many natural resources,so that the games are easy on the environment.As part of this goal,the organizers decided to make all of the Olympic medals out of metal recycled from old electronics.
Almost all electronics are made with small amounts of "precious metals",like gold and silver.But collecting enough of these metals to make5,000medals was a huge challenge.That's because the amount of metal in each device is tiny.It would take about20,000cell phones to get just1kilogram of gold.
Beginning in April2017,the organizers placed collection boxes around the country,and asked people to turn in their old electronic devices.Soon people began to respond to the initiative,turning in smartphones,digital cameras,hand-held games,and laptops.At first,collection went slowly,but soon more and more areas began to take part.By the end,1,621local governments had helped out with the collection process.
Then came the job of breaking those devices down into smaller pieces.After being taken apart and sorted,the small electronics were smelted (熔炼) to get all the gold,silver,and bronze elements.This is a tricky job,which calls for careful attention and good skill.It's also dangerous,because some of the metals and other things aren't safe for people to touch or breathe.
By the end of March,2019,the organizers had hit their targets of getting enough metal for the medals.They had collected around3xkilograms of gold,4,100kilograms of silver and2,200kilograms of bronze.And now all the5,000medals are available for the would-be winners.
