In fact, three out of every five pieces end up either being burnt or sent to landfills. However, things are changing.

Wen, 14 years old, from a high school in Chengdu, thinks online interaction(互动) isn’t enough. “ 4 And I don’t know them well, either.

Fashion is one of the least sustainable (可持续发展的) industries on the planet, said Michael Stanley-Jones, a program management officer with the United Nations Environment Program. 3 It ends up in landfills (垃圾场), too. In fact, three out of every five pieces end up either being burnt or sent to landfills. However, things are changing.

Birds use their tails to balance while sitting on trees. They also use tails to control directions. For many birds, a spread and raised tail is part of the lover-finding show. 4 Male ones will spread their colorful tails to attract female ones. Besides, animal that live in groups, like wolves, use different tail position to show their rank. 5 Scientists believe those tails disappeared around 20 million years ago.

During his studies, Meucci started to experiment with electricity. 2 When two places were connected with wire, people in those places could hear each other talk. In 1850, Meucci and his wife, Ester, moved to New York. Meucci was worried about his wife, because she had become very ill. 3 ‌ To solve this problem, he connected metal cables between his home and his workshop. This way, they could talk to each other conveniently. Meucci invited a group of people to see his new invention. They listened in amazement as the voice of a singer was heard through the wires. 4 ‌ Even worse, Meucci never applied for a patent (专利) on his invention. Meanwhile, Alexander Graham Bell was working on the same idea and in 1876 the patent (专利) for the telephone was given to him.
