Part 2.
Read the passage below and choose the best answer to each question
In the world today, particular in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe,
recycling is the big news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be
sensitive to the environment. Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of
the recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs,
boxes and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of
packaging: usually paper, a box and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to
buy things that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to
buy high-quality products. When low-quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and
buy new ones- a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high-
quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the
same way, if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important
message to the manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throw-away must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After
customers empty the bottles, they return them to the stores. The manufacturers of the drinks collect
bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved.
in some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the
garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throw-away The third step being
environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used again. Aluminum cans
are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run
a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save
one of the world's
precious resources.
