Task 10. The passive
Complete the following passage with the appropriate passive forms of the verbs in brackets.
A new campaign 1 was launched(launch) earlier this year by the UK government which aims to reduce the amount of domestic waste. Households 2____________________ (encourage) to recycle certain waste products and to sort and prepare others for collection at specific sites. From there they 3_________________________(take) to special waste treatment plants where special machinery will process them for reuse as recyled material, in Britain today, when the contents of the average household dustbin 4_________________(analyse), we find that, in terms of weight, 35% of the total 5_______________(compose) of paper and cardboard, 22% of kitchen waste, 12% of plastics with glass, dust and ashes each representing a further 10%.
There are in fact only a few items of domestic waste that cannot 6______________(recycle). One common example is disposable nappies which, as their name suggests, 7______________(design) to be thrown away after use. However, a lot of progress could 8_____________(make) to reduce the amount of kitchen waste most of which can 9_________________ (transform) into a useful garden fertiliser. Indeed, if more people chose to do this then the weight of the average dustbin 10_____________(reduce) quite significantly.
In terms of glass products, the situation is more encouraging as nearly 20% of all the glass that 11_________(use) every year in the country 12 ________(take) back for recycling.
Nonetheless, it is clear that the mountains of domestic waste will only decrease if efforts 13 _____________(make) both by individual households and local government authorities. Special equipment such as collection trucks must
14 ___________(purchase) and people must 15 _____________(make) aware of how they can contribute to improving the situation. This 16 _______(achieve) with increasing success in a number of regions in Europe during the last few years, a trend that 17 ______________(expect) to continue in the future.
