Read the following passage about single-use plastics and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the following questions from 7 to 14.

Single-use plastics have become a major environmental issue in recent years. These plastics, designed to be used once and then discarded, include items like plastic bags, straws, cutlery, and water bottles. They are cheap, convenient, and durable, making them popular for various everyday applications. However, their widespread use and careless disposal have led to severe pollution. The oceans, in particular, are heavily affected by plastic waste, where millions of tons of plastic accumulate each year, harming marine life and ecosystems. 

A significant concern with single-use plastics is that they are not biodegradable. Instead, they break down into tiny particles known as microplastics, which persist in the environment for hundreds of years. These microplastics can enter the food chain, affecting not only marine animals but also humans who consume seafood. Research has shown that microplastics are now present in a variety of foods and beverages, raising health concerns for consumers worldwide. 

To address the issue, some governments and organizations have implemented policies to reduce single-use plastic consumption. For example, many countries now impose charges on plastic bags or have banned their use entirely. Some companies are also developing eco-friendly alternatives, such as biodegradable plastics or reusable items. These measures aim to encourage people to make more sustainable choices and reduce their environmental impact. 

Technology and innovation also play a role in tackling plastic pollution. Scientists are working on new ways to break down plastics more effectively or create materials that decompose naturally. For instance, enzymes that digest plastics have been discovered, and researchers are exploring how to use these enzymes on a larger scale. With continuous efforts, there is hope that the detrimental effects of single-use plastics can be mitigated in the future.
