of three,Chelsie Hill had dreamed of becoming a dancer.That ambition nearly endedone night in 2010.Hill,then a 17-year-old high school senior in Pacific Grove,California,was in a caraccident that put her in the hospital for 51 days and left her paralyzed from the waist down.For mostpeople,that would have ruined any hope of a dancing career.For Hill,it was the beginning.Far frombeing a barrier,her

hands,Hill told Today,"Itdefinitely took a lot of learning and patience."After graduation,Hill wanted to erpand her dance networkto include women like her.She met people online who had suffered

translating the Japanesewar records that detailed where the Grayback had likely sunk.All this time,the Navy's historical recordshad listed an incorrect site for the submarine's location.With the help of autonomous underwater vehicles,remotely operated vehicles and advanced imagingtechnology,the team discovered the Grayback about 100 miles from the area where it was originally thought tohave gone down.The discovery was officially confirmed by the Navy,Robert S.Neyland,the head ofthe Naval History and Heritage.On January 28,1944,the Grayback set sail from Pearl Harbor for the East China Sea.About a monthlater,the submarine reported sinking two Japanese ships on February 19.Though the Grayback was scheduledto arrive in Midway on March 7.more than three weeks passed without sight of the submarine.And onMarch 30,1944,the Grayback,one of the most successful submarines of World War II,was reportedlost.Gloria Hurney,whose uncle Raymond Parks died on the Grayback,said that she wasn't sure that theGrayback would ever be recovered.So when she first learned of the discovery,she felt a mirture of shock,disbelief,sadness.Eventually,though,those feelings turned into relief,comfort and peace.Hurneysaid in a statement to CNN."I believe it will allow recovery as relatives of crew members come together toremember and honor the service of our Sailors."4.(8)Before you throw your trash into the nearest can,think for a moment.Not all your garbage can bedumped into one trashcan.It needs to be sorted out with different things going into different bins.Wasteclassification,a practice that has long been normal in developed countries like Japan,is the new challengefor many Chinese urban residents.However,though initially you might need to rack your brains to figure outwhich trash goes into which can,in the long run,the result is well worth the effort.Landfills,sites where waste is buried and covered over with soil,are a major method of disposing of第2页1共14页夸克学习有夸克就有解residential waste in China.However,considering the environmental disaster associated with burying waste.there is a pressing need to reduce the amount of waste that goes into a landfill.Classification,sorting wasteinto different categories such as harmful waste.recyclables and kitchen waste,is a key solution.Currently,46 cities across China,are carrying out a program that aims to put in place a classification-basedgarbage disposal system by the end of 2020.It is hoped that this will reduce the quantity of waste that endsup in landfills by a large degree.Shanghai came into the media focus in early July after it carried outcompulsory garbage sorting rules that those who fail to dispose of garbage properly should be fined.Beijing isreviewring its regulations to follow in Shanghai's footsteps.The new rules may cause short-term inconveniencebut they are meant to help residents follow the concept of garbage classification for the common good.As the programs show,residents can gradually develop this habit with their growing awareness and the helpof advanced technology.In future,this practice should be adopted across China,in urban cities and ruralareas alike.With public involvement,China's garbage sorting program will contribute not only to the nation'ssustain able(可持续的)development but also to making the planet a better place to live in.完形填空1.(30)During my senior
