【参考译文:】

　　With the improvement of people's living standards and the increase in consumption level, the garbage problem in China becomes increasingly urgent. Many cities are surrounded by garbage.

　　Confronted with the growing garbage output and deteriorating environment, the Chinese government is implementing the policy of garbage classification with great effort.

　　Garbage classification means dividing garbage into recyclable and unrecyclable, and requires people to put garbage into different trash cans so that it can become new resources through different ways of cleaning, transporting and recycling.

　　It can reduce not only the amount of garbage that needs to be disposed of, but also the deposing cost and the usage of the land, benefiting our society, economy, and environment.

　　【难点点拨：】

　　1. 第二句中的“面对日益增长的垃圾产量和环境状况的恶化”，其逻辑主语是后面的“中国政府”，故此处可采用过去分词短语作状语，置于句首，译成confronted with the growing garbage output and deteriorating environment。

　　2.“垃圾分类是指将垃圾分为…使之变成新的资源”句子较长，由三个短句组成，第一、第二个短句主语均是“垃圾分类”，因此可用and连接两个谓语“是指”和“要求”。

　　“要求人们…”用require sb.to do结构。“通过……方式使之变成新的资源”可看作是“人们将垃圾投放至不同的垃圾桶”的结果，可用so that连接，加强句子逻辑。

　　3.最后一句的主干可理解为“它可以减少…，降低…，减少…”，三个谓语动词都可用reduce来翻译，因此可共一个动词，后接不同的宾语，用not only...but also...连接。

　　“对社会、经济、生态三方面都有益”则可处理成现在分词短语benefiting...,表结果。
