Exercise 2: Read the text and the questions below. For each question circle the correct answers. Running and picking up rubbish My name’s Luke. I’m eleven years old and I live in Brighton, a city in England. All my family love sport and we like going running together on Saturday afternoons. Brighton is on the coast, and people love coming here to swim and play games on the beach. When they go home, some people leave rubbish like plastic bottles, paper or cans behind. It makes me angry because if this rubbish goes into the sea, it’s dangerous for fish and anything else that lives in the water. Some people say that 80% of the plastic in the world’s oceans comes from rubbish that people threw away on land. So we decided that we should do something to help with this problem. Now, when my parents, my sister and I go running, each of us carries a plastic bag. When we see any rubbish on the ground, we stop and pick it up. We always wear gloves to protect our hands. There’s usually some rubbish in the street, and the park that we run through, but most of it is on the beach. Then, when we get home, we empty our bags and recycle the cans, plastic, paper and glass. We use the same plastic bags every time we go running, of course! 2. Why is Luke upset about the rubbish on the beach?

He’s worried about sea animals.

He thinks it should be in the sea.

He’s scared it’s dangerous for him.
