If you were to throw, say, a banana peel out of your car while driving along the motorway, that would be a completely harmless action, due to the fact that it’s part of a fruit — right? Actually, no. A banana peel can take up to two years to be naturally procesd, and with a third of motorists admitting to littering while driving, that’s a whole lot of discarded banana peels. An orange peel and a cigarette butt has a similar biodegrading (生物降解) term to that of a banana peel, but tin cans last up to 100 years; and plastic bottles last forever, as do glass bottles.
Despite the fact that longer-lasting materials will rve to damage the environment and its animals for longer, we can’t merely measure the verity of a certain type of rubbish by its lifetime. For example, despite having a fairly short length of biodegrading time, more than 120 tons of cigarette-related litter is discarded in the UK every day.
It’s not a cheap habit either: to keep our streets clean annually costs UK taxpayers £500 million, and when you include our green spaces, that goes up to £1 billion. So, it’s not sur
prising that if caught fly-tipping you could face a £20,000 fine or even jail time and, if you dispod of something dangerous, the court could give you five years to rve. Regardless of how vere the punishments might em, however, among the reported cas only 2,000 were found guilty out of 825,000, so we still have some way to go in making sure people obey the rules.
4. What does the underlined word “discarded” in para1 mean?
A. Harmless. B. Procesd. C. Thrown. D. Long-lasting.
5. Which of the following has the longest biodegrading term?
A. Glass bottles. B. Tin cans. C. Cigarette butts. D. Banana peels.
6. What can be inferred from the passage?
