Question

[124]. Read the following passage carefully:

Passage: "A paper recycling unit in a town collects old notebooks, newspapers and cartons, soaks them, and turns them into fresh paper. Recycling one tonne of paper, workers explain, saves many trees, water and energy compared with making paper from fresh wood. The unit also gives work to collectors who once picked waste informally. When schoolchildren visit, they see their old notebooks return as new sheets — a visible lesson that waste is not an end but a material waiting for a second life. Recycling works best when households separate paper at home." What do schoolchildren learn on a visit?

1.
That their old notebooks return as new sheets, so waste has a second life.

That recycling is dirty.
3.
That notebooks are useless.
