四、阅读回答问题(共10分)
Read the passage and answer the following questions.（阅读短文，回答问题）
School tests can be stressful. But they might also encourage you to help change the world. Three girls, Kristen, Jenna and Marisa from New York, learned about a growing problem from a reading test they took. The problem is e-waste, short for electronic waste (电子垃圾). The girls learned that some dangerous chemicals in e-waste can damage the environment and people.
Afterwards, they had to come up with an idea for a science project. They remembered the interesting topic from their test. So the girls started a recycling drive to help other students and the community learn about properly (合理地) recycling e-waste. They called themselves the E-Waste Girls. They put recycling boxes in the school hall and asked the students to collect old cell phones, radios and other items. When the boxes were full, they sent them to a special recycling center. The recyclers took out the dangerous chemicals and disposed of (处理) them properly, so that they don’t go into the air or the ground or the water.
One big way people can help reduce e-waste is to buy smartly. So the girls strongly advised people to consider electronics made with fewer dangerous chemicals and choose electronics that will last several years. The girls’ project also helped them become finalists (决赛选手) in the We Can Change the World Challenge, a national student competition. The E-Waste Girls see a bright future in which projects like theirs will not be needed any more.
