Answer 2

1) The correct answer for the first gap is "a) pollute". It's important to not pollute paper so that we can save trees. By avoiding polluting paper, we can contribute to the conservation of our natural resources.

2) The correct answer for the second gap is "b) cut down". Water is vitally important for life, so it's crucial not to waste or deplete it. By not cutting down on water usage, we can ensure its availability for future generations.

3) The correct answer for the third gap is "c) waste". We should never litter in the street and instead dispose of it properly in a bin. By not wasting litter and properly disposing of it, we can maintain cleanliness in our surroundings and prevent environmental pollution.

4) The correct answer for the fourth gap is "d) drop". Big factories may drop pollutants that can affect wide areas around them. By not dropping pollutants, we can prevent the contamination of the environment and safeguard the health of ecosystems and communities.

5) The correct answer for the fifth gap is "e) clean up". Every year, large areas of forests are being cleared for different purposes. By actively participating in reforestation efforts and supporting sustainable practices, we can help clean up and restore these areas, promoting biodiversity and preserving our natural resources.

The extra variant "f) recycle" was not used in any of the gaps. Recycling is an important practice that can help reduce waste and conserve resources. While it wasn't directly mentioned in the given sentences, it is still a valuable action to take in our daily lives to protect the environment.
