Plastic has become very common in our daily life; however, most plastic items take up to 1,000 years to decompose in landfills. Can we enjoy the convenience of plastics and a greener world at the same time? Our readers have sent us many emails with useful tips this week.

Hai, 18

I try to use fewer plastic bags when shopping. The supermarket near my house even provides cardboard boxes, so I can pack my groceries and get rid of plastic packaging! When I must use plastic bags, I try to reuse them again and again instead of throwing them away after a single use.

Phuong, 16

I know how convenient it is to buy a bottle of water from a vending machine or a supermarket; however, I always bring my reusable water bottle. All I have to remember is to fill my bottle before going to school, and then use the water filling stations or drinking fountains at school.

Hoang, 15

I always reuse plastic takeaway containers. I use them to store portions of cooked food and keep leftovers in the fridge, which is also better for the environment.

Ha, 16

I have learnt that most plastic containers have numbers at the bottom to show the type of plastic they’re made of. So when you recycle a bottle, for instance, remove the cap because a bottle often has number 1 on it while the cap often has number 5. Numbers 1 and 2 are the most widely accepted plastics for recycling.

Binh, 17

When I started recycling, I made the mistake of putting some plastic takeaway containers with some leftover food into the recycling bin. The next day, the whole bin was contaminated, so all the recyclables were taken to the landfill instead. So now I always rinse out containers before recycling them.

Ngữ pháp Tiếng Anh 12 Unit 3 (Global success): Green living

I. Verbs with prepositions (Động từ với giới từ)

- Nhiều động từ đi với một giới từ được theo sau bởi một tân ngữ. Nghĩa của hai từ này thường có nghĩa tương tự với nghĩa của động từ ban đầu.

Ví dụ:

Động từ với about ask about (hỏi về), care about (quan tâm về), talk about (nói về), learn about (học hỏi về)
Động từ với for ask for (hỏi xin), apply for (ứng tuyển), apologise for (xin lỗi về việc), wait for (chờ đợi ai/ cái gì), prepare for (chuẩn chị cho ai/ cái gì)
Động từ với on agree on (đồng ý về), base on (dựa trên), depend on (phụ thuộc vào), rely on (dựa dẫm vào)
Động từ với to introduce to (giới thiệu đến ai), refer to (ám chỉ đến), respond to (phản hồi đến), listen to (lắng nghe), explain to (giải thích cho ai)

- Trong một số trường hợp, một động từ và một giới từ được kết hợp để tạo thành một cụm động từ (hai từ). Nghĩa của một cụm động từ thường rất khác so với nghĩa của động từ chính. Các cụm động từ sử dụng trạng từ cũng như các giới từ.

Ví dụ: work out (tập luyện), carry out (tiến hành), turn on (bật lên/ mở), look for (tìm kiếm), look after (chăm sóc), look up (tra cứu)

II. Relative clauses referring to a whole sentence (Mệnh đề quan hệ ám chỉ cả một câu)

Chúng ta có thể sử dụng một mệnh đề quan hệ không xác định để ám chỉ đến toàn bộ thông tin trong một hay nhiều mệnh đề trước nó. Loại mệnh đề này được sử dụng với đại từ quan hệ which. Chúng ta cũng thêm dấu phẩy trước which.

Ví dụ: More and more people are interested in recycling nowadays, which is good for the environment.

(Ngày càng có nhiều người quan tâm đến việc tái chế, điều này tốt cho môi trường.)

(= The fact that more and more people are interested in recycling nowadays is good for the environment.)

(= Việc ngày càng có nhiều người quan tâm đến việc tái chế là điều tốt cho môi trường.)
