The dustbin is full to the top with coloured plastic. In fact, it is so full that it is difficult to put the lid on. But the Strauss family, who own this dirty, old dustbin, are very proud of it. Why? Because it contains all the family’s rubbish for a whole year! Two years ago, this family read an article about plastic bags and how they cause pollution and harm sea creatures. They decided to stop using plastic bags completely. Now, when they buy ffood, they reuse their own bags each time.

If everyone recycled a bit more, it would make the environment better. (Adapted from Solutions by Falla and Davies) Question 31: What is the passage mainly about? A.

Daniel Tammet can speak eleven languages, and can solve difficult maths problems in seconds. Despite his wonderful abilities, Daniel has had difficulty learning to communicate and understand others’ feelings. Daniel’s skills and problems result from a mental condition that makes it hard for him to communicate with other people. Daniel is thirty-five now, and life is easier for him. But when he was a baby, he used to cry a lot. At school, it was difficult for him to read body language or make eye contact, so he could not understand how others felt and never played with other children, or with toys. Numbers were his only toys. To Daniel, numbers have colours, shapes and personalities. This allows him to experience numbers rather than calculate them. For example, when he multiplies two numbers together, he sees two shapes. They start to change until a third shape appears. That is the answer. Because of his special skills, Daniel can do things that many other people cannot. He can copy a picture accurately, and he can plan a book about his life without writing down anything. However, he also realises that he cannot do many things. He knows that he is difficult to live with because he cannot understand how others feel. He admits that most of the time, he has to behave as if he shared their feelings. Despite these problems, he is slowly learning how to express more emotions. He says that when his cat died, he understood sadness for the first time. Now Daniel no longer wishes to have a normal life. He is using his talent for good purpose. He usually gives lectures, has written three successful books, and taken part in many research projects. Some people say that he is having the same effect on them as great scientists do.
