Read the following conversation and answer the question.  M: Come in. Please have a seat.  W: Thank you.  M: I'm Paul Turner. Branch Manager.  W: Katie Thomas, nice to meet you.  M: I hear that you're looking for temporary office work.  W: That's right.  M: How old are you, Katie?  W: Eighteen.  M: That's rather young. What experience have you had?  W: Well, I've just left school, in fact, and I'm looking for a job between now and when I go to college.  M: It doesn't sound as if we can help, Katie. You see, our clients are very demanding, especially when it comes to new office technology.  W: Oh, that's no problem. I took extra classes in office skills at school.  M: Oh, perhaps you'd like to outline what you've been doing?  W: I started by learning keyboard skills. Then I went in to learn about word processing.  M: Good. You seem qualified from the technical point of view. But how well do you think you'll get along with people in an office?  W: I think I'm quite adaptable. I belonged to the drama society, as well as working on the school magazine. And I played a bit of sports. So I'm used to working as part of a team.  M: Sounds good. Let's see... There's a request from Johnson's Imports for "a bright youngster..." .  Question: How old is Katie?   - 16.  - 17.  - 18.

Read the following conversation and answer the question.  W: Do you collect cola cans, Steve?  M: No. Why do you ask?  W: You have so many empty cans here.  M: Well, my mum wants me to keep all the cans, so that we can sell them after a while.  W: Aha, you are going to make a millionaire of yourself sooner or later with all those cans.  M: You bet I will. Well, that's not the point. The point is we separate reusable things from other rubbish. We have to pay the dustman for dealing with rubbish, but if we sell him these cans and other reusable material we pay less.  W: That sounds a clever idea. Now what are reused in China?  M: Metal, plastic, paper, books and the like.  W: Just as we do back home in the States.  M: And to avoid waste, the government is limiting the production of goods that can be used only once, such as bamboo chopsticks. For example, all the fast food boxes should be made of paper instead of non-reusable material.  W: That will surely be helpful for a clean environment.  Question: What does the government do to avoid waste?   - The government limits the use of plastic.  - The government produces a lot of bamboo chopsticks.  - The government encourages the use of paper for fast food boxes.

The government encourages the use of paper for fast food boxes.
