II. Read the passage carefully and choose A, B, C or D to indicate the
26 to 30.
Every one of us produces garbage of one kind or another every day. There is too much trash in the world so
every year we need to find a very large area of empty land just to bury the garbage. This is the same as filling
one football stadium with garbage up to 20 meters high!
This garbage damages the environment. Although a lot of garbage is buried in the ground, some of it gets blown
about in the wind. Also, when garbage is burnt; poisonous gases are given off into the air. This leads to air
pollution. When the garbage is thrown into the sea, it pollutes the water.
What can we do about these problems? One very easy answer is to produce less garbage. We can recycle things
made from glass and paper as well as tin cans. People can refuse to take the plastic bags from the shops and
supermarkets by bringing with them their own bags or baskets when they go shopping.
The government should tell people about the dangers of garbage pollution. Education is perhaps the most
important factor for keeping our environment clean for the future.
