6. Reading. Rubbish everywhere (3 Б.)
Rubbish, rubbish everywhere.
People throw away millions of tons of rubbish every year. Now, we haven’t got enough places to put it. If we don’t do something soon, rubbish will be everywhere - on the ground, in the sea and maybe even in space!
What’s the problem?
The problem with rubbish is that it is ugly and it smells bad. It can also harm people, animals, plants and trees. Some things we throw away in our rubbish bins can poison our soil, water and air.
What can we do to help?
We can recycle many things like magazines, newspapers and mobile phones. We can also use some rubbish such as vegetable or fruit peelings to make compost. If we all help, the amount of rubbish will reduce.
Write true, false, doesn’t say:
1. People will wear special clothes in the future.
2. Some things people throw away in our rubbish bins can poison our soil, water and air.
3. The writer is going to organise an ecological campaign.
7. Reading. Charity begins at home (3 Б.)
Read the text "Charity begins at home".
It is said that charity begins at home, and people in the UK seem to have put these words into practice. Their enthusiasm for helping others shows in the 187,000 charity organisations that exist in the country. Some of the most famous ones are Oxfam, Age Concern, the RSPCA, the British Heart Foundation and Marie Curie Cancer Care.
People donate money to charity organisations or volunteer to help them raise money. Many of these organisations run charity shops. The first charity shop in the United Kingdom was established by Oxfam in Broad Street, Oxford. Oxfam has the largest number of charity shops in the UK with over 800 stores.
Charity shops sell goods at very low prices. The items for sale are usually second-hand and donated by members of the public. These include books, records, CDs, clothes, accessories, household items, furniture and costumes for special occasions such as Halloween. There are bargains for everyone! Some charity shops also sell new goods that are somehow related to the cause they support. In Oxfam stores, for example, you can find fair trade food and crafts. The staff who work at charity shops are volunteers, so most of the profits from the sales go towards the charity. In the US, where charity shops are called thrift stores, this kind of shopping is so popular that it has got it's own word, it's called thrifting!
Write one word into each gap:
1. Many of these organisations ------------------ charity shops.
2. The first charity shop in the United Kingdom was ----------- by Oxfam in Broad Street, Oxford.
3. In Oxfam stores, for example, you can find fair trade food and ----------------
