Practice Reading: Multiple Choice, Single Answer ID: #41611 Living tips
Instructions ›
Read the text from a newsletter about sustainable living tips. Read the text and answer the multiple-choice question by selecting the correct response. Only one response is correct.
This month's edition focuses on simple yet effective ways to reduce your carbon footprint and live more sustainably. One of our top recommendations is to embrace a plant-based diet, which has been shown to significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions compared to diets high in meat and dairy. We also encourage the use of public transport, cycling, or walking instead of driving, which can greatly decrease your personal contribution to air pollution. Additionally, investing in renewable energy sources for your home, like solar panels, can cut down on fossil fuel consumption. Finally, reducing waste by recycling, composting, and choosing reusable products over single-use items can make a big difference in our environmental impact.

Option 3: "Using public transport instead of driving"

Explanation: Although using public transport is encouraged as a way to decrease personal contributions to air pollution, the text does not claim it significantly lowers greenhouse gas emissions compared to a plant-based diet.

Option 4: "Choosing reusable products over single-use items"

Explanation: Choosing reusable products is mentioned as a way to reduce waste, but it does not specifically address the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The focus of the text on emissions is primarily linked to dietary choices.
