                                                  C 

       Rubbish sorting (分類(lèi)) probably doesn’t sound like much fun. But there is a new mobile game that may change your opinion about it,and you might even learn something while you play it一Meet Sortee.

       Meet Sortee is a puzzle game developed by Flow Studio,a UK company. It makes you think deeply about everyday objects (物體) and their meanings.

       The rule of the game is quite simple. Two bins are placed on either side of the screen. Each of the bins has a label (標(biāo)簽) next to it and the label explains what it is for. When an object,such as a car or an apple ? appears on the screen ? you need to decide which bin it should be sorted into and then send it there by moving your finger.

       The game seems easy enough at first. But as you move on to more levels ? it gets harder. The number of bins increases (增長(zhǎng)) to three or four and the time given gets shorter. You need to think and move faster. That can be really difficult.

       There are 400 obejects in total and more than 100 bins in the game. The more objects you correctly sort,the more game coins you can get. It ’ s a bit like working in a rubbish recycling (回收利用) centre,but it has no bad smell.

       You can download the free game from Apple ’ s app store (蘋(píng)果應(yīng)用商店) ，but it only lets you play the first few levels. If you want to open the next 40 levels,you need to pay 6 yuan for the full game.

() 1. The passage is probably taken from .

() 2. Of the following,which order is RIGHT according to the third paragraph?
