\(\boxed{1}\) Imagine that you are preparing a project with your friend. You have found some interesting material for the presentation, and you want to read this text to your friend. You have 1.5 minutes to read the text silently, then be ready to read it out aloud. You will not have more than 1.5 minutes to read it.

Environmental issues have become one of the most popular questions to be informed about and discussed nowadays. Nations, communities, individuals decide to remain updated about the latest information about the environment and acquire knowledge of the problems impacting the places where they live, for instance, air and water pollution. Gaining an appropriate understanding of the significance of environmental preservation is called ecological awareness. The more people are aware of environmental difficulties or problems which strike us, the more they advance their behaviour and way of living in order to protect the environment and survive in constantly changing conditions. If only people recognised that deforestation and plastic goods manufacture inevitably influence wildlife and cause biodiversity loss, they would reduce paper consumption and reuse plastic things or refuse to use them at all. Climate change reports are published annually where scientists describe vividly all threats which our planet faces. The figures and predictions are horrifying. Fortunately, there are plenty of available state and volunteer organisations to encourage ecological awareness and give essential instructions on how to make a difference.
