Read the following text then answer the questions below Pollution: How to reduce it The world that we live in now is badly affected by pollution. The rivers and seas arepolluted. The air is polluted. The land is polluted. Consequently the things we drink,breathe and eat are all polluted. This sad state of affairs are not good for our health and well-being. Pollution isvirtually destroying the place we live in Earth. If pollution is allowed to go on and on wewill surely destroy ourselves too. We ought to value our planet for it is the only place wecan live in it. If we destroy it then we are also finished. Eliminating pollution completely is impossible. So it is important that we try to keeppollution to a minimum. There are many things that we can do to reduce it. The first thing for everyone is to stop dumping rubbish anywhere they like. We cansee piles of rubbish on road sides, in ditches and drains, in back lanes and often on mainroads too. Perhaps we could recycle the things we use instead of simply throwing them away. We could, for example, reuse glass, metals and plastics. We could keep our cars andsinks in good working order instead of abusing them as many of us can do now. Then wewould have less rubbish t o throw. Consequently there would be less rubbish dumps andless pollution. Motor vehicles are major cause of air pollution. They emit much exhaust fumes. Inbig cities this pollution has reached levels that pose a threat to the health of the citydwellers. Some cities have already advised their residents to wear gas masks when theyventure onto the streets. The only way to reduce this pollution is obviously to reduce thenumber of vehicles on the roads. This is easier said than done for very few people wou ldwant to sacrifice the convenience of having one’s own transport. Factories and industrial plants are largely responsible for pollution of the air, waterand land. The waste they discharge into the rivers and land destroy both. The smoke theyemit pollutes the air. What they must do is to find ways to reduce their wastes. Also theyhave to treat their wastes so that they are harmful. All these things are required if we areto see any reduction of pollution. At the rate things are going; however, we see increasein pollution instead. Whether we can really reduce pollution and thus save our planet is up to us. Pollute itmore and we shall perish.1.
