Topic: Environment problem A. give away used items B buy environmentally friendly products C. reuse containers for storing food D. not buy commercial cleaning products Speaker A: give away used items You know, it amazes me how much we throw away without thinking. I’ve started giving away my old clothes and furniture instead of dumping them. Think about it—someone else could really use what we consider junk. It's such a simple thing, but it keeps stuff out of landfills and helps people out. The more we share, the less we waste. Why let things rot in a corner when they could have a second life somewhere else? It makes me feel like I’m doing my part, even in small ways. Plus, it’s a good reminder that what’s old to me could be new to someone else." Speaker B: buy environmentally friendly products I think one of the biggest ways we can protect the environment is by changing what we buy. I only purchase products that are sustainably sourced or made from recycled materials. Every dollar we spend is like casting a vote for the kind of world we want. It’s crazy how much waste and pollution come from manufacturing—choosing eco-friendly products is a way to push back against that. Sure, it might cost a bit more sometimes, but isn’t the planet worth it? I mean, we talk a lot about big changes, but if everyone just started small, like switching to biodegradable packaging, we’d see a massive impact." Speaker C: reuse containers for storing food "I've started reusing containers for storing food. I was tired of buying plastic wraps and bags every month just to toss them after one use. You don’t realize how much waste you produce until you try cutting it down. Now, I use glass jars and old containers to store leftovers, and it
works just as well. Honestly, it makes me feel a little less guilty about all the plastic in my life. I’m not saying I’m perfect, but even this small habit makes a difference. And let’s be real—who needs more clutter in the kitchen, anyway?" Speaker D; not buy commercial cleaning products "I stopped buying commercial cleaning products altogether. Most of them are filled with harsh chemicals that are terrible for the environment—and probably for us, too. Now, I make my own cleaning solutions. Vinegar, baking soda, and a little lemon juice can handle pretty much anything around the house. It’s cheaper, safer, and I don’t feel like I’m dumping toxins down the drain every time I clean. People think it’s hard, but honestly, once you try it, it’s not that bad. We don’t need a cabinet full of chemicals to keep things tidy. Nature’s got it covered." 2. Topic: protecting the environment 2 A. Using less electricity. B . Not driving to work C. Shopping online. D. Using less water. Speaker A: Using less electricity. "I try to help the environment by using less electricity at home. I always turn off the lights when I don’t need them and make sure my appliances are energy-efficient. I’ve also started unplugging things like chargers when I’m not using them because they still use power. This helps lower my electricity bill and reduces my impact on the planet. I believe that if everyone made these small changes, we could save a lot of energy and help fight climate change." Speaker B: Not driving to work
"To protect the environment, I don’t drive to work anymore. Instead, I walk when the weather is nice, or I take the bus. It’s not only better for the planet, but it also keeps me more active, and I enjoy the fresh air. By not driving, I use less fuel and help reduce air pollution in the city. I think if more people chose to walk or use public transport, we could reduce traffic and make our towns and cities cleaner and healthier for everyone." Speaker C: Shopping online. "I’ve decided to shop online as a way to protect the environment. By ordering things online, I don’t need to drive to the store, which means I’m using less fuel and producing less pollution. Many companies now offer eco-friendly packaging, and I try to buy from them whenever possible. Also, online deliveries often group items together, which reduces the number of trips made. It’s convenient for me, and I feel like I’m doing something good for the environment at the same time Speaker D: Using less water. "I try to save water every day as a way to protect the environment. For example, I take shorter showers, turn off the tap while brushing my teeth, and use less water when washing dishes. I’ve also installed special taps and showerheads that use less water but still work well. Water is a limited resource, and many places don’t have enough clean water. That’s why I think it’s important for all of us to be careful and not waste it. Even small actions can make a big difference." 3. Topic : online shopping . The products are delivered A. It is cheaper B. Save time C. It has more choices Sản phẩm mua online được giao đến với giá rẻ,tiết kiệm thời gian và có nhiều lựa chọn hơn
Person A : products are delivered You know what I love about online shopping? The fact that I don’t even need to leave my house. I can be sitting in my pajamas, sipping coffee, and boom—whatever I want is on its way. It’s like magic, or, well, just modern convenience. No more carrying heavy bags or struggling with parking. The delivery driver brings it right to my doorstep, and all I have to do is click a button. Sometimes, I even forget I ordered something, and it’s like a little surprise when it shows up. It’s almost too easy—almost. Person B : it is cheaper What really gets me excited is how reasonable the price can be. Like, have you ever compared the prices? Online stores are practically giving stuff away compared to what you'd pay in-store. And the sales? The discount codes? Half the time, I find a deal without even trying. Plus, I can shop around different sites to get the best price without moving an inch. Add in free shipping, and it’s a no-brainer. I mean, why would I go to a store and pay more when I can get it for less, right? Person C : it saves time I swear, I don’t know how people used to spend hours in malls. You can get lost in there, wandering around, dealing with lines. With online shopping, it’s like time stretches out in your favor. I can find what I want in minutes, and then I’m done—back to whatever I was doing. No driving, no waiting for the fitting rooms, none of that hassle. Time is money, right? And online shopping just gives me so much more of it to spend on the things that actually matter to me. Perosn D : it has more choices The selection online? It’s insane! You walk into a store and, sure, they’ve got a couple racks of things, but online? It’s like you’re stepping into the biggest mall in the world. You can find anything—stuff you didn’t even know existed. And if one site doesn’t have your size or style,
