Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer
PLASTIC AND THE ENVIRONMENT
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 called landfill sites for hundreds of years. Landfills can be smelly, ugly, and harmful to our planet.
Recycling is a good way to get rid 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 (strands of material) for clothing.
Another way to protect the environment is to use canvas bags for shopping rather than plastic ones. A lot of
plastic objects can also be reused. Plastic bottles can be refilled many times, rather than throwing them away
once they are empty. Unwanted plastic goods such as CDs and toys can be sold or given away to charity shops.

Question 26: According to the passage, things made from plastic are bad for our environment because ______.
A. people reuse plastic objects before recycling them.
B. they are very convenient for people to use in different purposes.
C. they are a danger to marine life such as whales, turtles and so on.
D. plastics can exist for a long time without decomposing.
Question 27: The word “They” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. People B. Rubbish dumps C. Things D. Plastics
Question 28: The phrase “empty” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.
A. untenanted B. thin C. full D. unfilled
Question 29: According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Some kinds of plastics can be melted down, then released into the river.
B. Plastic objects are useful for people without negative impacts.
C. Plastics and plastic objects can be thrown away to tidy the room.
D. Plastics and plastic objects can be recycled or reused.
