阅读理解 In less than two months, a newly opened minimarket in a remote village in Xigaze City, southwest China's Tibet, has attracted a large number of customers. The secret behind its success is the idea "rubbish for goods". Villagers can redeem (兑换) goods with used cartons (硬纸盒) and drink bottles. Early in the morning, Drukhyun, the first secretary of Chumik Village, came to check the stock (库存). "More and more people are coming to redeem goods and we need to timely ensure plentiful stocks," Drukhyun said. Yet the move was not quite well received in the beginning, until they put their eyes on the pupils. The children used recyclables in exchange for snacks and soon the news spread. Now over 100 villagers have redeemed goods with a value of over 5, 100 yuan. The market has also provided jobs for four local residents that once lived under the poverty line, each earning a monthly salary of 3, 000 yuan. Tenzin Drolma is responsible for counting and weighing the goods. "Thanks to the market, I can get such a meaningful job. Local residents are highly motivated and I'm pretty busy every day." Since a rule of sorting the waste into categories (种类) in Lhasa was carried out in November 2020, several green markets have opened one after another. In another similar supermarket in Lhasa, the shelves are filled with edible oil, washing liquid, toothpaste and other daily products. All the products are only available by redeeming points. One kilogram of plastic waste can be redeemed for 13 points while one kilogram of cartons is worth of 5 points. Technology has also made the low-carbon lifestyle smarter and cleaner. In a community in Lhasa's Chengguan District, the intelligent recycling bins can calculate the weight and upload (上传) the redeemed points to cards of local residents. "When the trash bins are full, it will automatically remind the cleaning staff to empty them," said Pendran, director of the district's waste sorting office.
