NEW WORDS
II/ While-reading:
- A representative from Friends of the Earth, Miss Blake, is talking to the students of Quang Trung School. Friends of the Earth shows people how to protect the environment and save natural resources
Mrs. Blake

Ms. Blake : Recycling is easy. Remember: reduce, reuse and
recycle.
Ba: You’re right. It’s not difficult to remember because all the
three words begin with the letter R. Can you explain what
you mean, Mis Blake?
Ms.Blake: Certainly. I’m pleased that you want to know more.
Reduce means not buying products which are
overpackaged. For example, shirts and socks which have
plastic and paper packaging.
Hoa: I think I know what things we can reuse.
Ms.Blake: Can you tell the class, please?
Hoa : We can reuse things like envelopes, glass and plastic
bottles and old plastic bags.
Ms. Blake: That’s right. But instead of reusing plastic bags,
we shouldn’t use them at all. We ought to use cloth bags.
Lan : So is that what you mean by recycle?
Ms. Blake: Yes, don’t just throw things away. Try and find
another use for them.
Lan: That’s easy to say, Miss Blake, but how do we do it?
Ms.Blake: Contact an organization like Friends of the Earth
for information, go to your local library, or ask your
family and friends.
