     You've probably heard that you're not supposed to pour old medications down the toilet
or drain(排水溝). That's because drugs can get into the water supply and cause problems
for people as well as wildlife.
     But you can't just throw medicines or unused prescriptions in the trash either. You don't
want medications-and your private health information-to fall into the wrong hands.
     Destroying old medications and then putting them in the trash is the way to go. Here's how:
     Dump the medicine out of its container into a plastic bag. You don't want to throw away
medications in their containers because there is a risk that people looking for drugs, as well
as kids or pets, might find them. You can mix different kinds of medicines in the same bag.
Just be sure to use a plastic bag that can be tightly sealed. And then seal up the bag and
throw it away in the regular trash.
     Destroy the medications. Add a small amount of water to the bag to dissolve(溶解) the
medications. Then, add something that is not food, like dirt. That way, if the medication mix
falls into the hands of children, they won't be able to eat it.
     After you've dealt with the medication following the instructions above, throw the medicine
container in the trash. But before you do that, get rid of the label and destroy it. This helps
you protect your medical information and keep it private. You don't want your name, address,
and other personal information showing up next to the name of the drug you are taking. If you
can't remove the label, take a marker and black out(用墨等涂掉) any personal information.
     A few prescription medications need to be dealt with immediately after they are no longer
needed. These should still be washed away down the toilet. If your prescription is one of these,
the label on the container should say so.

  In 1913,an item called the Erector Set was invented.It was a steel, motorized toy that children could use to build models of anything.Its creator was A.C.Gilbert, a medical doctor.

  Charles Pajeau created a similar wooden set called Tinker Toys in the year 1914.Tinker Toys were made for younger children.

  Raggedy Ann dolls first came on the scene after newspaper cartonist Johnny Gruelle reproduced the doll he made for his daughter.That was in 1915.

  The following year, an architect’s son named John Lloyd Wright, invented Lincoln Logs, which were interlocked to make structures.

  Two years after Mickey Mouse was created, stuffed(填塞)Mickey Mouse dolls were made by Charlotte Clark.This was the start of Disney merchandise.
