Yooupi在法国留学时，发现身边有一支庞大的捡垃圾队伍，其中有的是衣着朴素的老人，有的是白领，还有的是和自己一样的留学生。When Yooupi was studying in France, she
found a huge garbage collection team around her. The team consisted of elderly
people dressed in plain clothes, white-collar workers, and international
students like herself.· garbage /ˈɡɑːbɪdʒ/n.垃圾· plain /pleɪn/adj.朴素的
好奇心促使她也想尝试一把，于是她就带着相机去捡垃圾并记录下自己的感受，其实，捡垃圾行为的背后是被浪费的庞大资源。Curiosity prompted her to try once, so she
picked up the garbage and took a camera with her to record her feelings. What
was behind the garbage-picking behavior was a huge waste of resources.· curiosity /ˌkjʊriˈɑːsəti/n.好奇· prompt /prɒmpt/v.促使
这些都是能吃的
由于法国对于食品评级有着极其严苛的标准，这也导致了大量的食物浪费。France has extremely harsh standards for
food grading, leading to food waste quantities.· harsh /hɑːʃ/adj.严酷的· quantities of 大量的
比如在一场市集结束之后，Yooupi就捡到了不少有缺陷的果蔬，但稍微处理一下就能做一顿精致的免费大餐，除此之外，在面包店门口运气好还能捡到一周的口粮。For example, Yooupi picked up a lot of defective
fruit and vegetables at a market. After a slight handle, she could make a fine
free meal by them. Moreover, if she was lucky enough, she could pick up a
week's provisions in front of the baker's.· defective /dɪˈfektɪv/adj.有缺陷的· provisions /prəˈvɪʒnz/n.供给
一种新流行
在国外，捡垃圾似乎已经成为了一种新的流行，除了一些确实生活拮据的人以外，还有不少环保人士认为这样确实能够在一定程度上减少浪费。· penurious /pɪˈnjʊərɪəs/adj.拮据的· environmentalist /ɪnˌvaɪrənˈmentəlɪst/环保人士He is penurious, but he is very sincere with
everyone.他非常拮据，但对待任何人都非常真诚。 The woman has become
an environmentalist on her own.这个女人已经成为了一个独立的环保主义者。
国内也渐渐出现了类似的组织叫做stooping，通常是发布一些二手、免费的家具等物品，邀请有需要的人去拿。A similar organization called “Stooping”
has gradually emerged in China. It usually publishes some second-hand but free
furniture and invites people in need to get it.· stooping/ stuːpɪŋ/v.弯腰· emerge /iˈmɜːdʒ/v.出现
在我看来，其实垃圾就是放错地方的资源，让旧物品在新主人那里继续发光发热，呈现出全新的故事与价值，这样既环保又是一种爱心的流转。As far as I am concerned, garbage is a
misplaced resource. It makes those old items continue to work in the hand of the
new owner, showing a brand-new story and novel value. It is environmentally
friendly and is a kind of flow of love.· misplaced /ˌmɪsˈpleɪst/adj.错位的· glow/ɡləʊ/v.发光· brand-new /ˌbrænd ˈnjuː/adj.崭新的 ❤小C寄语❤垃圾其实也是一种资源。【分享】这篇文章到朋友圈，一起来聊聊吧~
