Read the passage and choose one of four options A, B, C or D to answer the questions.

Protecting the environment is very important for our planet. We need to take care of nature to keep the Earth clean and healthy. There are many simple things we can do to help the environment. For example, we can recycle paper, plastic, and glass. Recycling helps to cut down on waste and save resources. Another way to protect the environment is to save water. We should turn off the tap when brushing our teeth and take shorter showers. Also, using less electricity can help. Turning off lights when we do not need them and using energy-efficient bulbs can make a big difference.

In addition, planting trees is also very good for the environment. Trees clean the air and provide homes for animals. They also help to keep the climate stable. We can all plant a tree in our garden or join a community tree-planting event. Using public transport, walking, or riding a bike instead of driving a car helps reduce pollution. Cars produce a lot of harmful gases that pollute the air. By choosing other ways to travel, we can keep the air clean and reduce our carbon footprint.
