Like most people, I know that recycling is good(1) for the environment. When I throw plastic, paper, metal or glass (2) away I always put it in the recycling box. I (3) don't put it in the rubbish bin. These days I'm interested (4) in upcycling too. That's when you take things that people don't want and make them useful again. (5) There's a shop in my town called 'The Green House'. It sells lots (6) of fantastic upcycled furniture.
(7) The woman, who owns the shop upcycles old chairs.
She paints them in different colours and they look amazing.
I try (8) to upcycle clothes when I can. I make T-shirts from old long-sleeved tops, for example, and I'm good (9) at using old jumpers to make scarves. At the moment my friend and I (10) are making a pair of trousers from an old Indian skirt.
Как и большинство людей, я знаю, что переработка отходов хороша(1) для окружающей среды. Когда я выбрасываю пластик, бумагу, металл или стекло (2), я всегда кладу его в ящик для вторичной переработки. Я (3) не кладу его в мусорное ведро. В наши дни я тоже заинтересован (4) в переработке отходов. Это когда вы берете вещи, которые людям не нужны, и снова делаете их полезными. (5) В моем городе есть магазин под названием "Зеленый дом". Он продает много (6) фантастической переработанной мебели.

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern,Ireland (the UK) is the official name of the state which is situated in the British Isles. Thust "Great Britain" is often the same as "Britain" and refers1 only to Scotland, England and Wales. The "United Kingdom", or the "UK" includes Northern Ireland. It consists of four countries which are England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Their capitals are London, Edinburgh, Cardiff and: Belfast. The UK is an island state. The two main islands are Great Britain (where England, Scotland and Wales are situated) and Ireland. Northern Ireland and the independent Irish Republic are there. The two islands are separated by the Irish Sea. The UK is separated from the continent by the English Channel and the Straits of Dover. Once the British Isles used to be a part of the continent. The nearest point to Europe is the Straits of Dover. The UK is also washed by the Atlantic Ocean in the north and the North Sea in the east. Everyone who was born in Britain is British. People from England are English. People from Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland are not English. They are Scottish or Scots; Welsh and Irish. People from Scotland and Wales don't like it when they are called English but they are British. More than 56 million people live in Britain. Many of them live in big industrial cities like London. Manchester and Liverpool, for example, are big industrial cities in the centre of England. But foreigners are often surprised by the fact that much of the land in Britain is open country. There are many lonely hills, quiet rivers, deep lakes and farmlands especially in the south of the country. Everyone in Britain speaks English, but in some parts of Scotland and Wales people speak different languages as well. The Welsh are especially proud of their language. They like to speak Welsh, to sing songs in Welsh and when you travel you can see road signs in Welsh all over Wales. Everyone in the UK speaks English but they all speak it differently. A Scottish person has to listen carefully if he wants to understand a Londoner or a Welsh person. As you know, the flag of the United Kingdom is known as the Union Jack. It is made up of three crosses. The upright red cross is the cross of St. George, the patron saint of England. The white diagonal cross is the cross of St. Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland. The red diagonal cross is the cross of St. Patric, the patron saint of Ireland. Wales has its own flag called the Welsh dragon. The patron saint of Wales is St. David. The red rose is the national emblem of England, the thistle is the national emblem of Scotland. The daffodils and the leek are the emblems of Wales and the shamrock is the emblem of Ireland.
