VI. WRITING
Writing about suggestions for improving the environment
1. Work in pairs. Match the suggestions for improving the environment with their expected results.
Suggestions | Expected results |
Cleaning up regularly (e.g. organising clean-up activities at weekends) | This reduces CO, and makes the air clean. |
Planting more trees (e.g. encouraging students to plant trees or flowers in their school) | This makes the waste collection easier. |
Setting up more rubbish bins (e.g. putting more rubbish bins in public places such as parks or bus stations) | This keeps the environment clean and makes it safe for everyone. |
2. Read the incomplete paragraph about ways to improve the environment. Fill in the blanks with the words and phrases from the box.
