There are reports that some developed countries have shipped broken parts of computer to China. Such a thing can be found every day though it’s against international laws. Last month Hong Kong officers found 131,000 kilograms of broken computers, TVs and phones sent from Japan. Things like this are called e-waste. Dealing with them isn’t an easy job because dangerous poisons like mercury(汞) and lead(鉛) can be found in them. Every time an old computer breaks down, it needs dealing with safely. But at present, broken computer parts are usually buried. It may be hundreds years before they are really gone in the soil.

Many places in China are polluted by e-waste. Guiyu in Guangdong Province is one of them. This town is named as “the e-waste capital of the world”. It has to deal with 1.5 million kilograms of e-waste each year, from which it makes 75 million yuan, But many of the poisons find their way into the environment. Greenpeace, an environmental group, has found the air, the earth and rivers in Guiyu badly polluted. This year, China presents a new environmental protection law. Computer companies like Lenovo and Dell will be asked to take back their old computers. This is because the companies that make computers know best how to deal with them safely. Hopefully, the problem with e–waste will be solved in the near future.

Many years ago my student asked me a question, “Mrs. Kindred, why do you teach?” Without taking time to reflect, I answered, “Because someday I might say something that might make a difference in someone’s life.”

Even though the words came from my heart, that wasn’t a very good answer and my student didn’t let it go. “Let me get this straight,” he said, “You went to college for four years so you could come here every day because you have the hope that someday you might say something that will influence someone?” He shook his head as if I were crazy and walked away. I knew he didn’t understand. I’m one of those people who look back and wish they had said something smart or wise.

Even though that student might no longer wonder why I teach, there are days when I wonder. On those days, I remind myself of the real reasons I teach: It’s in my blood. My mother was my most influential teacher, and she was a 6th grade reading teacher until her death in 1990. She instilled（逐漸灌輸）in me a love of reading and the knowledge that education opens doors.

Teaching is a way to make a difference. If you throw a stone into a pond（池塘）, the ripples（波紋）go on and on until they reach the shore. You can’t have ripples without a “stone”. Good teachers throw stones that make a good difference, and that’s what I try to do.

I love teenagers. I want to share with others what I know and what I have learned through the years. Life is full of ups and downs, and if I can help students avoid making mistakes on the road of life, I want to do so. If they’ll allow me to celebrate their victories with them, I want to do it, too. Teaching isn’t for everyone, but I know I made the right career choice.

C. he wants to make a good difference in students’ life D. he enjoys watching the ripples made by the stone
