这篇短文主要介绍了世界上最干净的国家之一——瑞士对垃圾的回收再利用情况。对很多瑞士人来说,垃圾回收再利用已经成为他们日常生活中的平常事。通过阅读本篇文章,懂得保护环境人人有责,保护环境从平常事做起的道理。
Switzerland(瑞士) is one of the most developed countries in Europe. It is famous as one of the cleanest countries in the world.
The Swiss(瑞士人) think that recycling is important. The government has made laws(法律) which require everyone to recycle. In 1998, the Swiss government passed a law which says that people cannot throw away any electronic machines. Instead, people are told to take old ones, such as televisions, computers and fridges, to special centers when they don't need them. Many parts of the old machines are reused, and only the parts that can't be used are thrown away.
The government also charges(收费) a rubbish bag tax(税).If people want their rubbish to be collected, they must buy yellow stickers(张贴物) and put them on their rubbish bags. In 2003, 47% of all rubbish in the cities was recycled. This included 70% of paper, 95% of glass, 71% of plastic bottles and 85%—90% of cans. Until recently, people could get a small amount of money when they recycle their bottles. Recycling has become a daily habit for the Swiss.
Everyone should learn from the Swiss, and our country will be clean like Switzerland.
