Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions.
Plastic is a material we use every day. The first plastics were made more than 100 years ago from
parts of plants. Plastics are now made from oil, coal and natural gas. We are using up these things so
fast that the Earth’s supplies may run out. Because of this, scientists are investigating new ideas for
making plastics from plants such as sweet potato, bamboo and flax.
Things made from plastic can be useful for people but bad for the planet. Some plastics can last
for a long time without wearing out, and can be difficult to get rid of when they are not needed. They
can remain in rubbish dumps for hundreds of years.
Recycling is a good way to solve the problems of unwanted plastics. Recycled waste materials can
be used again to make new products. This can be difficult as different types of plastic need to be
recycled in different ways. Some kinds of plastics can be melted down and used to make new things
such as bags and bottles. Others can be made into fibres for clothing.
Another way to protect the environment is to use canvas bags for shopping instead of plastic
ones. A lot of plastic objects can also be reused. Plastic bottles can be refilled many times, rather than
thrown away once they are empty. Unwanted plastic goods such as CDs and toys can be sold or given
away to charity shops.
