23、to teach English abroad because you get to see a completely different education system from the one you experienced. I am teaching in Belgium this year and I have noticed that there are some big differences.In the UK, for example, as many of you know, it is common to wear a school uniform. If studen
24、ts all wear the same thing then, in theory, they will feel less excluded as everyone looks the same. It is also nice to wear a school uniform because you dont have to think about what to wear in the morning; you just put on your uniform and go off. This saves a lot of time as you dont have to worry
25、about what to wear, what looks nice and what is fashionable. Another difference I have noticed also concerns clothing: teachers dress in a more relaxed way in Belgium. They wear jeans and trainers, for example. In my experience in the UK, teachers dress much more formally to work in a school - 5 -.T
26、hey wear similar things to the people who work in an office: shirts and ties for men; dresses, skirts, dark trousers for women.As I am working with older students who are aged from 16to 18, I have also noticed that they have a lot more subjects than I did at their age. In the UK, at 16 you enter “si
27、xth form” and you have to choose four subjects. Some people like this, as it means they do not have to study subjects they dont like. Others feel that it is too early to make such a big choice, because the subjects they choose at 16 will have an impact on what they can study at university. Me? I lov
28、ed this system. I threw myself into my four favorite subjects and I am grateful for the experience I had.28. What does the writer do according to the passage?A. A teacher B. A dress-maker C.

30、roadC. An unforgettable experience D. Different education systems between Belgium and the UKDShould you recycle the box from your takeaway pizza or throw it away? Can you recycle empty drink cans? Is all plastic recyclable? How much do you know about recycling?We probably all know that recycling is
31、good for the environment. It saves energy and Earths resources. But do you know which items you should or shouldnt recycle?In the UK, we have a well-established system of recycling. Most people expect to separate recyclable material from general refuse. A typical household recycles paper, cardboard,
32、 plastic and glass bottles and drink cans. Food and garden waste is now also collected. But in the last four years, the number of items rejected for recycling in England has gone up by 84%, mainly as a result of pollution. Many items end up in landfills or being burned when, with more care, they cou
33、ld be recycled. The problem often comes from confusion over what - 6 -and how to recycle.Across the UK the system of recycling differs between local authorities, and multiple containers are used for different types of recyclable things. In one area there may be one large bin for recycling all househ
34、old items, another for garden waste , and yet another for general waste . A few streets away, another area may use a separate container just for glass bottles. Waste collection time varieseither weekly or fortnightly. Each week, you have to remember which bin has to go out. Its all highly confusing.
35、One of the biggest problems recycling firms face is food pollution. If your plastic milk bottle is empty, its OK to recycle it, but if it contains a small amount of milk, it could result in pollution of the plastic recycling process. Likewise, paper boxes cannot be recycled if they contain some food
36、, so a cheesy pizza box shouldnt be recycled.Consumers are constantly faced with recycling problems. Youve just finished a carton of juice. Should you remove the plastic cap before recycling the carton? You feel the fate of the planet lies in your hands. My advice: stop worrying and open a bottle of

Which of the following can be recycled?A. An empty drink can. B. A paper box with some food.C. A milk bottle w
