     One underground container can hold 10 tons of garbage.The station which has two sets of the garbage transit equipment can store 20 tons of garbage at a time and it is able to serve 30，000 citizens.The whole machine is smart.When the underground container reaches 85 to 95 percent of its capacity（容量）a signal will be sent to tell that it is time to send the container to a final waste site.Additionally，when the smoke detector（檢測(cè)器）is triggered（觸發(fā)）or the monitored temperature is too high，the fire equipment will automatically work to make sure of safety.Noise is also well controlled at the station.The noise is little when the machine is working.

• 6．Being talented is not enough There is a story in the book History as a Mirror by Chinese historian Sima Guang.
     Zhi Xuanzi was the head of Zhi，a big family of Jin during the late Spring and Autumn Period （770-476 BC）.He wanted a man named Zhi Yao to be the head of the family.
     However，another man in the family，named Zhi Guo，was against the idea.Zhi Guo said Zhi Yao was good at many things.For example，he was good at riding and shooting.He was decisive and talkative.But Zhi Guo pointed out that he had a big moral weakness（道德上的缺點(diǎn)）-he was unkind.
     Still，Zhi Xuanzi didn't agree.Zhi Yao became the head of the family.He quickly made the Zhi family the strongest in Jin.However，because of his aggressive style（咄咄逼人的風(fēng)格），three other families worked together to fight against the Zhi family.Finally，the Zhi family was beaten.
     Sima Guang used this story to talk about how important virtue（德行）is.Talent is not enough.Excellent people must have both talent and virtue.
  If a person has virtue but no talent，he or she might work inefficiently（低效）.If a person has talent but no virtue，he or she might go in the wrong direction.Having both talent and virtue has been a common pursuit for people in China.Those who have both were called xiancai（賢才）in ancient times.If you ask which one is more important between the two，it must be virtue.Only if a person has virtue can he or she get on the right track（走對(duì)路）.

  （2）When and where did the story happen？

• 9．（1） As we know，doing housework is helpful for teenagers' development. Do teenagers in small villagers do housework at home？How about the teenagers in big cities？（2） 為了解青少年做家務(wù)勞動(dòng)的情況，we made a survey（調(diào)查） last month.We asked 4000 teenagers in China.Half of them come from big cities like Beijing，Shanghai and Guangzhou.The others are from small villages.We made a diagram（圖表） according to our survey.Let's have a look at it.
     （3）We can find out that teenagers in small villages do more housework than those in big cities. Maybe it is because teenagers in small villages live a harder life or their parents are too busy to look after them.As a result，teenagers in small villages are more independent than those in big cities.We will give our advice to parents in big cities.（4）我們認(rèn)為父母應(yīng)該給孩子們一些家務(wù)做 because it's a good chance for teenagers to learn how to take care of themselves.（5）Besides，they should give their children more free time so that they can do what they live to do.
