26、Let’s suppose it is a common day of 2060. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.

Trips to the Moon are being made every day. Taking a holiday on the Moon today is as easy as taking a holiday in Europe in 2016. At a number of scenic spots (风景胜地) on the Moon, many hotels have been built. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Moon, every room has at least one picture window.

What are people eating now? People are still eating food. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill comes mainly from green plants.

Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just using a few computers.

People are now largely vegetarians, and they eat only bread, vegetables, fruit and so on and they don’t eat meat or fish. You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases.

The world has a plastic problem and it is increasing. Scientists are working to find a long-term solution by making plastic more biodegradable（可生物降解的）. But in the meantime, here are five things you can do to r【1】  plastic waste now.

1.Stop using plastic bags. Instead, take your own reusable shopping bag to the store. People use a trillion plastic bags worldwide every year. About 10 percent are used in the United States alone. That’s almost one bag per American per day, but the a【2】  Dane（丹麦人）uses four single-use bags per year. In 1993, Denmark was the first country to place a tax on plastic bags. Today, other countries（such as Chile, Kenya and New Zealand）either make customers pay for plastic bags, or have banned（禁止）them c【3】.

2.Skip the straw. Today, around 8.3 billion plastic straws pollute the world’s beaches. So when you order a drink, say “no”to the reusable straw, or bring your own reusable one. In 2018, Seattle became the first major U.S. city to ban plastic straws and many other cities are set to follow its e【4】.

3.Don’t use plastic bottles. Buy a reusable bottle and fill it with any t【5】 of drink you like. Some cities have already banned bottled water. However, people still buy nearly a million plastic bottles every minute in the world.

4.A【6】  plastic packaging. Buy bar soap instead of liquid soap in plastic containers. Don’t buy fruit or vegetables in plastic packaging. In the U.K, leaders are calling for supermarkets to have plastic-free areas. They also want to tax plastic take-out containers.

5.Recycle. We can’t recycle all plastic items, but it is p【7】 to recycle most bottles and milk or juice cartons. Today, Norway recycles 97 percent of its plastic bottles. How? Machines at most supermarkets take the bottles and give a refund of up to 2.5 kroner（32 cents）per bottle.
