Make a summary for each paragraph, and then fill in the following table.Reading task on 66 First para. Point of viewSecond para. First point of the argumentEvidence Third para.

If they are not recycled, these resources are lost to us.2.In china, 2 billion plastic bags are used every day.3.Plastic bags last from 20 to 1,000 years in the environment. Fourth para. Point of view The environment would be less polluted if we cleaned up cigarette butts and plastic bags. The best solution would be not to smoke or use plastic bags at all. AssignmentIn groups of four, make a poster for the school that tells the students various ways they can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.
