听力原文: Each day every person in the Untied States throws away more than five pounds of garbage. There is more garbage now than ever before and most of it is made up of the packages and cans in which we put our food. The traditional way of getting rid of solid wastes is quickly becoming inadequate. Many cities are experimenting with newer ways of handling their growing piles of garbage.
One of these new ways is recycling. Through recycling usable materials are taken out of garbage and made into something else. These usable parts of garbage are put through the cycle of going from a raw material to finished product again.
In some cities a machine called Hydrapulper is being used to help recycle garbage. It is like a huge mixing machine. The garbage is dropped onto a conveyor belt that feeds the machine; At the same time, water is pumped into the machine. With a mixing action, the Hydrapulper throws out the heavy metal objects that can later be sold as waste metal. The rest of the garbage—paper, food, plastic, rubber, glass, wood leaves, and other items— falls apart. The waste is then mixed with water and carried to another piece of equipment where glass, sand and small pieces of metal are thrown out.
With the Hydrapulper, up to 95 percent of the original garbage is made again useful. The rest is turned into furnace ash.

The front matter of a book consists of the title, subtitle, table of contents, and preface. But the【C1】______ of readers who pay no attention to the signals is larger than you might expect, unless you happen to be one of those who are【C2】______ to admit it. I have this experience again and again【C3】______ students. I have asked them【C4】______ a book was about. I have asked them to tell me, in the most general【C5】______ , what sort of book it was.

Many students are【C8】______ to answer this first and simplest question about the book. Sometimes they apologize 【C9】______ that they haven' t finished reading it yet, and【C10】______ do no know. That's no 【C11】______ ,I point out. Did you look at the rifle? Did you study the【C12】______ ? Did you read the preface 【C13】______ introduction? No, they did not. The front matter of a book【C14】______ to be like the tickling of a clock【C15】______ you notice only when it is not there.
