In the UK, people are finally starting to listen to the message about recycli British families now recycle about 22% of their waste Only five years ago, figure was about 10% That's good news for the environment - but there's
a more to do Some other European countries, like Germany and Holland, already recycle 60% of their waste and that's the goal for the UK too
Trang 33
Households in England produce 25 million tons of waste a year More than half of this is garden waster, paper, cardboard and kitchen waste - which people could recycle They could also recycle plastic, wood, glass and aluminium cans In fact, if everybody in the UK recycled all of their drinks cans, there would 14 million fewer rubbish bins of waste each year
Recycling isn't the only way to reduce the amount of rubbish we throw away More than 40% of the waste in our bins is packaging from shopping If we changed the way we shop, we could easily reduce the amount of waste For example, street markets and small shops often use less packaging than supermarkets And of course, if
we grew our own fruit and vegetables, there wouldn't be any packaging at all!
1 How much of their waste do British families recycle now?
2 How much do they recycle in German and Holland?
3 How much waste do households in England produce?
4 What eight different things could people recycle?
5 How could we reduce the amount of packaging that we throw away?

The more Severn became involved in environmental work, the (5) she realised that she could make a difference In fact, Severn showed her determination that at the age of 12, she spoke at the 1992 Earth Summit in Brazil, which (6) organised to discuss environmental problems The talk she gave was so convincing that everyone said it was (7) best talk at the summit

10 Fill each gap (1-6) in the passage with suitable sentences (A-F)
More and more people are becoming worried about the environment But what can ordinary people do about problems like pollution? (1) However, there are a few simple things that all of us can do to help the environment Each one may seem like a small step, but added together they can make a real difference to the world around us
One of the big areas where we can change things is transport Many of us use our cars much more than we need
to (2) Then we complain that we don't get enough exercise! Simply leaving the car behind when you need
to go to the shops for a few things can cut air pollution
It's also common to see people going to work in their cars on their own Each car produces the same pollution whether there's one or more people in it
(3) that way, one person leaves their car at home each day Fewer cars on the roads would mean less fumes, and that's good for all of us
We also create pollution when we travel long distances Many of us take our cars on holiday (4) If we explore our local area instead of travelling a long way to lie on a beach, we produce less pollution and we save money! It's something to think about the next time you're planning your summer holiday
Another means of transport connected to holidays is flying Did you know that planes create a large amount of pollution? (5) Before you go on a trip by air, ask yourself whether it's really necessary Sometimes, it's possible to go by train instead, which is a much cleaner means of transport
Where we go shopping also affects pollution In the past, there were small, local shops (6) Whether we drive or go by bus, it adds to pollution Buy things from places closer to home when you can Support your local shops and perhaps new ones will happen, meaning that there will be even less need to travel to shops It will also improve your local area
A We often forget that there is lots of beautiful countryside closer to home
B The gases they produce affects the atmosphere just as much as cars do
C One idea is for two people to travel to work together
D These days, we tend to travel to large supermarkets to shop
E It can often seem too big to deal with
F We drive somewhere when we could easily walk

12 Read the passage and choose the best answer
In the United Kingdom we each use about two hundred steel food cans every year Steel cans are popular because they are convenient, easy to store and unbreakable But when you have finished with a can, what do you
do with it? Do you throw it away and forget all about it? Probably! There are people whose job is to make sure that the steel is never wasted In fact, recycling or reusing steel cans is so successful that every day of the year, more than five million cans start new lives in new steel products
After you have thrown your cans, what happens? Well, first of all it is collected by the men who empty your dustbin each week and taken to a tip, together with all the other household rubbish Then the rubbish is sorted and the steel cans are taken separately to a factory which turns dirty old cans into high quality steel It is this steel which may well find its way back into your home in the form of knives and forks, garden equipment and, of course, food and drink cans So next time you open your fizzy drink just remember where your can may have been!
