| There have been three periods in the
history of post-war broadcast interviewing. The first, "the age of respect",
when it was an honour to have you, the interviewee, on the programme, lasted
until the middle 50s. The second, "the age of supremacy", when politicians in
particular looked upon the interviewers as rivals who made them feel
uncomfortable by their knowledge and rigour of questioning, came to an end at
the beginning of this decade. Now we are in "the age of evasion", when most
prominent interviewees have acquired the art of seeming to answer a question

[单项选择]Wherever people have been, they have left waste behind, which can cause all sorts of problems. Waste often stinks, attracts vermin and creates eyesores. More seriously, it can release harmful chemicals into the soil and water when dumped, or into the air when burned. And then there are some really nasty forms of industrial waste, such as spent nuclear fuel, for which no universally accepted disposal methods’ have thus far been developed.
Yet many also see waste as an opportunity. Getting rid of it all has become a huge global business. Rich countries spend some $120 billion a year disposing of their municipal waste alone and another $150 billion on industrial waste. The amount of waste that countries produce tends to grow in tandem with their economies, and especially with the rate of urbanization. So waste firms see a rich future in places such as China, India and Brazil, which at present spend only about $5 billion a year collecting and treating their municipal waste. Waste A.
