Reference Dialogue for Task 1-Talking about a public service advertisement about waste disposal

Brian:	I received an advertisement in the mail today about sorting waste products to help protect the environment.
Xiaohong:	I received it too. It sure sounds like a good idea - sorting out items that can be recycled, like paper, aluminum cans and plastic bottles.
Brian:	I've already seen the three slots that the advertisement said we should use: a blue slot for paper, yellow for aluminum cans, and brown for plastic bottles.
Xiaohong:	Do you think we're supposed to rinse out the cans and bottles before we put them in the slots?
Brian:	The ad didn't say, but I think it's a good idea since the items are going to be recycled. Well, at least that's what I plan to do.
Xiaohong:	Me too. Do you think other citizens will bother with this program?
Brian:	I certainly hope so. Everyone should be able to recognize the importance of protecting the environment.
Xiaohong:	You're right. Recycling these kinds of items should drastically reduce the amount of land used for waste disposal.
Brian:	Let's hope everyone else sees this advertisement and starts recycling today!
