B
★★★★☆
There was a time when a trip to the supermarket in the United States often ended with
a seemingly simple question from the (收銀員) ：Paper or plastic? Well,which type of bag would you choose?
While all types of bags have some influence on th^ environment,it has long been supposed that paper b?gs are kinder. TTiey are made from a renewable source,break down easily,bum without giving off thick smoke and can be (回收利用) .However,the proild: process behind paper bags uses more energy than that of plastic ones. How can this be true?
Studies show that paper bag production requires four times as much energy as plastic bag production. And the (量) of water used to make them is twenty times higher. Besides the influence on forests is very serious. It takes about fourteen million trees to produce ten billion paper bags,which happens to be the number of bags used in the United States yearly. In terms of recycling,the idea that paper bags are more environment-friendly than plastic ones can be quickly discarded. Research shows it requires about 98% less energy to recycle plastic than it does paper.
Even though paper bags might be more harmful than plastic ones,plastic still seems to be considered by governments as the more harmful of the two. In Ireland,for example,a tax (??) has been introduced to discourage the use of plastic bags. People have to pay 22 cents for every plastic bag,and as a result,their use has dropped quickly.
There,s no doubt it makes more sense to reuse these bags. However,we don't seem to be doing that at present. That may be because they fall apart quickly. If so,cloth bags are a better choice,but still,their production also has a bad influence on the environment. So what to do? How should we answer the question of “Paper or plastic?” It seems that we first need to ask ourselves one more general question: “What can I ?o to help the environment?”
6. The questions in Paragraph 1 are used to.
A. express ?ie author,s doubts
B. tell readers how to save money

7. Compared with plastic bags,paper bags.
A. need more water to produce
B. require less ertergy to recycle
C. take more time to break down
D. have less influence on forests
8. The underlined word “discarde”in Paragraph 3 probably means “ ”.
A. shared B. given up
C. discussed D. put forward
9. What does the Irish government think of plastic bags?.
A. They are less harmful than paper bags.
B. They can be made environment-friendly.
C. Taxes probably need to be increased further.
D. No plastic bags should be provided in shops.
10. Which question does the author probably hope the cashier will ask?
