Answer 2

It looks like you're working on completing sentences using "so" and "because" while matching them with the appropriate context. Here's the completed version:

1. There aren't enough bins, so I threw away the letter.
2. I went to the shops because I haven't got any money.
3. Cars pollute the environment, so please don't drink too much.
4. There isn't much water, so we needed some shampoo.
5. I can't buy a present because bicycles are better.

Matched with:

a. I didn't want to read it. b. I haven't got any money. c. please don't drink too much. d. we needed some shampoo. e. bicycles are better.

This completes the sentences and matches each context appropriately with "so" or "because."
