Read the passage below and decide whether the statements are TRUE or FALSE?

Paper can be recycled by reducing it to pulp and combine it with pulp from newly harvested wood. As the recycling process causes the paper fibers to breakdown, each time paper is recycled its quality decreases. This means that either a higher percentage of new fibers must be added, or the paper down cycled into lower quality products. Any writing or coloration of the paper must first be removed by deinking, which also removes fillers, clays, and fiber fragments. Almost all paper can be recycled today, but some types are harder to recycle than others. Papers coated with plastic or alumium foil, and papers that are waxed, pasted, or gummed are usually not recycled because the process is too expensive. Gift wrap paper also cannot be recycled due to its low quality.

Question: The recycling processes of most paper are similar.

A. True

B. False

I. Read the passage about recycling then answer True (T) or False (F)

            Recycling is important in improving the environment. Below are some helpful tips about recycling in and around the home. Find ways of recycling different materials.

IV, Write a suitable word in each blank to complete the passage. Three ways everyone can help make the Earth a greener place is to reduce, reuse, and recycle! When people reduce it means they are using (1)……………. of something. This allows us to create less waste. Turning off the (2)………………. when we brush our teeth is a simple way to reduce. This is a small action that prevents us from wasting water. Another small action people can take is to reuse things we already have. Taking bags to the store when we shop for food is one way to reuse them. Using both (3)…………….. of piece of paper before getting a new one is another way to reuse. (4)………………. is when new materials are created from old ones. Paper, plastic, and metalare all materials that can be recycled. Things like newspapers, soda cans, and plastic bags can all be turned into new objects if we take the time to recycle them!

Read the following passage and answer the question below.

Mose people make about two kilograms of waste every day, and about 7% of this waste is made up of plastic products that can be recycled. Today, plastic can be recycled into products like picnic tables, park benches, and even high-chairs.

First, plastic is collected and taken to a recycling center where it is sorted out. When plastic is sorted out, symbols have to be printed on every recyclable plastic product used. There are two kinds of polyethylene plastic, too: high density polyethylene (HDPE), and low density polyethylene (LDPE). HDPE plastic is usually used to make furniture, and LDPE plastic is usually used to make things like milk jugs, plastic and grocery bags.

1. Approximately, how much plastic waste does a person make every day?

......................................................................................................................

2. Where is the plastic sorted out?

Most people make aboutb two kilograms of wastev every day, and about 7% of this waste is made up of pastic products that can be recycled. Today, plastic can be recycled into products like picnic tables, park benchens, and even high-chairs.

Fist, plastic is collected and taken to a recycling center where it is sorted out. When plastic is sorted out, symbols have to be printed on every recyclable plastic product used. There are types of plastic: polyethylene or polymer. There are two kinds of polyetthylene plastic, too:high density polyethylene (HDPE), and low density polyerthylene (LDPE). HDPE plastic is usually used to make furniture, and LDPE plastic is usually used to make things like milk jugs, plastic and grocery bags.
