Plastic Pollution: A Global Challenge

Plastic is everywhere. It is all around us, even in places we don't expect, like the bottom of the
oceans or on top of mountains. Every year, more than 300 million metric tons of plastic are made,
used, and then thrown away. Plastic has been around for over 100 years. When it first came out, it
was a big hit. People liked it because it was cheap, easy to use, and lasted a long time. But now, we
have a big problem. Plastic doesn't disappear. Even if it breaks into tiny pieces, it stays in the world
forever.

Every year, about 12 million metric tons of plastic end up in the oceans. That's a lot! It gets carried
by the water and can travel for a long time. Sometimes, marine animals eat the plastic, which is not
good for them or for us. Most of the plastic in the oceans ends up on beaches. Henderson Island, a
faraway place in the South Pacific, has the most plastic pollution in the world. It's a beautiful island,
but it's covered in plastic trash.

Experts say that plastic pollution is a big problem, like climate change. Many countries are trying to
do something about it. Indonesia, for example, wants to spend a lot of money to clean up its waters.
But we can also help by using less plastic. Instead of using things only once and throwing them away,
we can use them again. We should also buy things with less packaging and recycle more. If we all
do this, we can make a big difference in keeping plastic out of our oceans and off our beaches.

61. Why was plastic popular when it was first 66. What can individuals do to help reduce
invented? plastic pollution?
a) It was expensive a) Use more plastic
b) It was difficult to use b) Throw away plastic after one use

d) It was rare d) Buy products with a lot of packaging

62. How much plastic enters the oceans each 67. What happens to plastic when it's thrown
year? away?
a) About 1 million metric tons a) It disappears
b) About 5 million metric tons b) It stays in the world forever
c) About 20 million metric tons c) It gets recycled
d) About 12 million metric tons d) It breaks down quickly

63. What is a major problem with plastic? 68. What is a problem caused by marine
a) It disappears quickly animals eating plastic?
b) It doesn't last long a) It helps them
c) It breaks into tiny pieces but stays in the b) It doesn't affect them
world c) It's not good for them or for us

the ANSWER SHEET.

Does radio have a place in the digital age?

There was a time when the radio was at the heart of the living room. Families would gather around
the polished walnut cabinet to listen to everything from the news headlines to the latest jazz
records. But is there still a place for the radio in the age of podcasts and Spotify? Does anyone still
listen to the radio?

Well, as it turns out, many of us do. According to a recent survey, 89% of respondents said they
listen to the radio at least once a week. I imagine a similar percentage tune in every day. Some listen
while they’re doing the housework, others use the one in their car. Builders sing along to stereos as
they work. We listen to music, interviews, weather forecasts, traffic updates – the list just goes on
and on. Yet since the dawn of television, people have been saying that the age of radio is over, just
as they have long said that print is dead.

Like all other media, radio has had to adapt – and fast – to the digital revolution. For example, most
mainstream radio broadcasts are available online and many shows can now be downloaded. The
move online has allowed traditional broadcasters to reach a wider audience, yet I’d argue it is some
of the qualities that radio has had from the start that has sustained its popularity. One is that it is
far more intimate than other media. We listen so regularly that the presenters have become familiar
to us – we trust their judgement and taste. We also see them as reliable sources of information – a
rare quality in the era of fake news. Many of the shows are also broadcast live, which makes us feel
more involved in the discussion.

Another aspect of this is that radio can be just as interactive as social media, if not more so. Listeners
can call in, tweet or text, joining the conversation with politicians, movie stars, musicians and
celebrities. In fact, I’m sure for some this is one of its big attractions. Radio also has a wider reach in
the moment than other media; it can be local, national or international. You can tune in to the latest
news from your hometown, what your Governor or President is up to or a baseball game in the
Dominican Republic. What’s more, with the arrival of digital radio, not only is sound quality hugely
improved, but listeners can also use the LCD screen to receive information about what song’s
currently playing, phone numbers for the ads they’re listening to, album art and much more. And if
you take a look at just a single day’s listing of shows, you’ll be surprised at how much more radio
has to offer.

61. According to the text, what was a 65. Which quality of radio has helped sustain
common use of the radio in the past? its popularity?
a) As a decorative item a) High-definition sound
b) As a family entertainment center b) Intimacy with presenters
c) As a tool for education c) Lower cost compared to TV
d) As a means of transportation d) Visual content

62. What percentage of respondents in the 66. What feeling does live broadcasting
recent survey said they listen to the radio at provide to listeners?
least once a week? a) Annoyance
a) 75% b) Involvement in discussions
