Try these questions and see.Do you try to walk or ride a bike to school?Do you buy new clothes just because they are the latest fashions?Do you sort(整理) the waste before throwing it away?Do you buy things produced locally instead of made abroad?Do you take your own cloth bag when shopping instead of using plastic bags?We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it does harm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help. In fact, even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Here are some ideas for you. Remember these three words: reduce, reuse and recycle.REDUCEReduce means use less. Dont waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution and waste going into the environment. Before we buy something new, think whether it is really necessary- or maybe the old one will be just as good! When we do buy things, choose local products if possible, and try not to buy too many things from abroad. It may cost a lot of money to bring them to us.REUSEReuse means use again. Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if we can instead of throwing them away and buying new ones. Dont use a paper cup or a paper bag. Its better to use a china cup and a lunch box because you can use them again.RECYCLERecycle means change things into something else. Although it takes energy to change something into something else, its better than throwing things away or burning them. Find out what can be recycled in your neighborhood and join in recycling programs. We should also buy products made from recycled materials, such as recycled paper, to help save trees.（1）How many ideas of protecting the environment does the writer talk about?A . 6B . 5C . 4D . 3（2）What does the underlined word green mean in the passage?A . 绿色的B . 健康的C . 环保的D . 可行的（3）What should we do to protect the environment?buy the latest fashionschoose local productsbuy things from abroadwalk or ride a bike to school sort the waste before throwing it awayA .
