Nearly everything we buy and use has a carbon footprint, from production to transportation. Most of us are familiar with the three Rs: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle, but there are now two more to keep in mind: Refuse and Repair. It makes sense to take them in order, beginning with the most effective choice, Refuse. Everything in our life has an environmental cost, so even simple actions like refusing to use a paper coffee cup instead of your reusable one might add up over time. Next, reduce your total consumption by carefully analyzing big purchases and avoiding overshopping. Let yourself at least a day or two to consider making a one-time purchase. You may not need it as much as you imagined. Reusing helps you to be more creative while reducing the need for more materials. You may also save money by cutting up used yogurt boxes as plant pots, washing out glass jars for storage, or turning paper and cardboard into hamster bedding.

In addition, so many things are thrown simply because we don't know how to repair them, or it would be too expensive to do so, or they were meant to become outdated. If it's possible, avoid anything that is not made to last. If you are unable to repair it, consider changing it to something different. Recycle as much as you can.

Everything made of metal, wood, most plastics, and paper is likely to be recyclable. Try not to buy anything that is in non-recyclable packaging. Furthermore, seek recycled things made from recycled paper, old rubber tires, and so on.

28. From production to transportation, nearly everything we purchase and use has a ________ footprint.

29. As a result, even simple actions such as refusing to use a ________ coffee cup and bring your own reusable cup may add up over time.

30. Next, limit your overall _________ by analyzing large purchases carefully and avoiding overshopping. 31. Many things are thrown because they are either too expensive to repair or are designed to be _________. 32. Metal, wood, most plastics, and paper are all likely to be recyclable. Avoid purchasing items in ________ packaging.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 29 to 33.

In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe, recycling is big news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be sensitive to the environment. Recycling means finding was to use products a second time. The motto of the recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".

The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging. usually paper, a box, and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy high-quality products. When low quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way, if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throwaway must stop.

The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After customers empty the bottles, they return them to the store. The manufacturers of the drinks collect the bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throwaway bottles.

The third step is being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources.

What are the two things mentioned as examples of recycling?

A. Aluminum cans and plastic wrappings

B. Hamburger wrappings and spent motor oil

C. Aluminum cans and spent motor oil

D. TV sets and aluminum cans

   Garbage is a big problem all over the world. People buy and use a lot of things nowadays. After a while, they throw them away in the garbage bin. All the garbage is later thrown away or dumped outside the city. These places are called landfill sites. In many cities, landfill sites are now full.

   We have to manage our waste and garbage better. If we throw away so many things, soon we will have no place to dump them. The best thing to do is to reduce the amount of garbage. If we use less, we throw away less. For instance, we can buy food in big boxes and packages. Then we throw away only one box every month or so. Otherwise, we throw away many small boxes or cans every day.

   Similarly, we can reuse a lot of packaging. For example, we do not have to buy take-out coffee in Styrofoam cups, which are made of aluminum - a toxic material to the environment. We can bring our own cup from home and fill it with fresh coffee.

   We also do not have to take the plastic bags from the supermarket. We can bring our own cloth bag from home instead. When we pack lunch, it is better to use a lunch box than a paper bag. Instead of paper plates, we can use real plates. We can clean up with a dishtowel, not a paper towel. We can use a compost bin for food scraps. In this way, the food gets back into the earth. It does not get mixed up with the regular garbage.

   Finally, all paper, glass and metal we do use, we can recycle. In many countries, there are now recycling programs. In Germany, for example, people separate all glass bottles by color. Then they put the bottles into special bins that are on the street. The city collects the glass, cleans it, and reuses it. As well, in most countries, people recycle newspapers and cardboard. It is easy and efficient.

(Source: http://mini-ielts. com/869/reading/the-garbage-problem)

Why does the author mention Germany at the end of the reading passage?

A. To demonstrate that recycling works.

B. To suggest that recycling is the best solution to the garbage problem.

C. To criticize countries that do not have a recycling program.

D. To offer additional advice about how to handle waste.

   Similarly, we can reuse a lot of packaging. For example, we do not have to buy take-out coffee in Styrofoam cups, which are made of aluminum - a toxic material to the environment. We can bring our own cup from home and fill it with fresh coffee.

   We also do not have to take the plastic bags from the supermarket. We can bring our own cloth bag from home instead. When we pack lunch, it is better to use a lunch box than a paper bag. Instead of paper plates, we can use real plates. We can clean up with a dishtowel, not a paper towel. We can use a compost bin for food scraps. In this way, the food gets back into the earth. It does not get mixed up with the regular garbage.

   Finally, all paper, glass and metal we do use, we can recycle. In many countries, there are now recycling programs. In Germany, for example, people separate all glass bottles by color. Then they put the bottles into special bins that are on the street. The city collects the glass, cleans it, and reuses it. As well, in most countries, people recycle newspapers and cardboard. It is easy and efficient.
