1 Listen and complete the dialogue.
Amy Jon, can I ask you something?
Jon Sure.
Amy Why do you always leave your computer switched on at night? Don’t you know it
uses a lot of electricity, and it’s bad for the environment?
Jon You’re right, I’ll stop. But I always try to do my best for the environment.
Amy So do I. For example, I ...................... new plastic bags every time I went to the
1
supermarket. But now, I’ve stopped.
Jon OK, well I don’t waste water.
Amy Neither do I.
Jon For example, I ...................... two showers a day. But now I only have one – in the
2
morning.
Amy Oh, Jon! But you must have a shower in the evening! Don’t be disgusting!
Jon What? I’m only trying to save the environment. And I try to save electricity where I
can.
Amy So do I.

Jon For example, I ...................... my socks every day. Now I only wash them once a
week. This saves water and electricity.
Amy Now you’re just being stupid.

Jon Also, I ...................... the bus to school. Now, I walk, and I’m two hours
late every day! Sorry teachers! I’m just trying to save the environment!
