XI. Read the text and answer the questions.
We know that paper is made from trees, so recycling paper helps to save trees. Saving trees helps to prevent air pollution, soil erosion and floods.
In Britain, 12.5 million tons of paper are used every year. An average person uses 38kg of paper each year. It takes 24 trees to make one ton of paper. 67 % of paper used in Britain is kept for recycling.
Paper recycling is so important and we should recycle our waste paper. To get the benefits of recycling, we must give our contribution to the work.
Paper recycling is also a great chore for children depending on their age. It is an important way for children to learn about responsibility for saving money and trees, and working together. Recycling chores help children to learn about going green and protecting natural resources. Children can also help with recycling at home, at school and in the community.
