Plastic is not good for the Earth because it takes many years to break down into smaller pieces. Single-use items are things that we use only once and then throw away, like garbage bags, plastic cups, and takeout boxes.
Single-use plastic straws are creating a big problem in our world today.
They can’t be recycled because they are too light. This means these straws do not get separated from other garbage at recycling dumps, and they even begin to fill up these dumps. As they gradually break down, they separate into very small plastic pieces called microplastics.
These microplastics are eaten by birds and sea animals; they stay in their stomachs and can even kill them. We also eat microplastics when we eat the animals that have eaten them, and this can hurt our health.
（ ）52. Which of the following are not single-use items?
(A) Plastic cups. (B) Steel chopsticks.
(C) Garbage bags. (D) Takeout boxes.
（ ）53. According to the passage, which is NOT true about plastic straws?
