Reading 1: Our Environment in DangerThe environment is everything around us: the air we breathe, the water we drink, the trees we see, and the animals we share the world with. Right now, many problems are harming our environment.
People are throwing rubbish on the ground and in the sea. Factories are giving off smoke into the sky, making the air dirty. In forests, people are cutting down trees to build homes and roads. As a result, many animals are losing their homes and becoming endangered.
In cities, the streets are becoming too crowded and noisy. Public places are filling up with plastic waste. Some people are acting carelessly. They are wasting water and are leaving rubbish in parks and on beaches.
These problems are happening now. If we notice them, we can start to think about how to fix them. Understanding what is going wrong is the first step to making a difference.
In Kuwait, the "Kuwait Environment Protection Society" teaches people how to protect the environment. They talk about problems like pollution and climate change. They remind us that every person can make a difference, not only in Kuwait but also in the world.
The environment is our home. If we take care of it gently and wisely, it will be healthier, cleaner and safer for everyone. Let's make a promise. I will do something small every day to help the planet and protect its natural resources. Will you?
البيئة هي كل ما حولنا: الهواء الذي نتنفسه، والماء الذي نشربه، والأشجار التي نراها، والحيوانات التي نتشارك معها العالم. في الوقت الحالي هناك مشكلات كثيرة تضر ببيئتنا.
يرمي الناس القمامة على الأرض وفي البحر. وتطلق المصانع الدخان في السماء فتلوث الهواء. وفي الغابات يقطع الناس الأشجار لبناء البيوت والطرق. ونتيجة لذلك تفقد حيوانات كثيرة موطنها وتصبح مهددة بالانقراض.
في المدن أصبحت الشوارع مزدحمة وصاخبة جدًا. وتمتلئ الأماكن العامة بالنفايات البلاستيكية. ويتصرف بعض الناس بإهمال، فهم يهدرون الماء ويتركون القمامة في الحدائق وعلى الشواطئ.
هذه المشكلات تحدث الآن. إذا لاحظناها يمكننا أن نبدأ في التفكير في كيفية حلها. إن فهم الخطأ هو الخطوة الأولى لإحداث فرق.
في الكويت تعلّم "الجمعية الكويتية لحماية البيئة" الناس كيفية حماية البيئة. وتتحدث عن مشكلات مثل التلوث وتغير المناخ. وتذكرنا بأن كل شخص يستطيع أن يحدث فرقًا، ليس في الكويت فقط بل في العالم أيضًا.
البيئة هي بيتنا. إذا اعتنينا بها برفق وحكمة فستكون أكثر صحة ونظافة وأمانًا للجميع. لنقطع وعدًا: سأفعل شيئًا صغيرًا كل يوم لمساعدة كوكبنا وحماية موارده الطبيعية. وأنت؟
Reading 2: Students' Actions Around the WorldAround the world, students are helping the planet by using the 3Rs: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. These actions may seem small, but they make a big difference.
In Japan, students neatly sort their rubbish into paper, plastic, and food waste. They do this every day after lunch as part of their school routine.
In Finland, schools have "No Waste Weeks." First, students reuse folders and boxes. Next, they bring lunch in reusable containers. After that, they design posters to teach other classes about recycling. Finally, they clean a park together.
In Kenya, students started a "Plastic-Free Lunch" project. They bring metal bottles, cloth bags, and paper wraps. They even make bags from old clothes, a creative idea that impressed many families.
In Kuwait, students started a paper collection campaign. They place boxes around the school and ask everyone to use both sides of the paper. Every month, they collect the used paper and send it for recycling. They also visit younger classes to teach children how to take care of the environment.
These students know that small actions matter. Can your class think of a smart way to reduce waste?
حول العالم يساعد الطلاب كوكبنا باستخدام قاعدة الـ 3Rs: التقليل وإعادة الاستخدام وإعادة التدوير. قد تبدو هذه الأفعال صغيرة لكنها تحدث فرقًا كبيرًا.
في اليابان يفرز الطلاب نفاياتهم بعناية إلى ورق وبلاستيك وبقايا طعام. يفعلون ذلك كل يوم بعد الغداء كجزء من روتينهم المدرسي.
في فنلندا لدى المدارس "أسابيع بلا نفايات". أولًا يعيد الطلاب استخدام الملفات والصناديق. ثم يحضرون غداءهم في أوعية قابلة لإعادة الاستخدام. بعد ذلك يصممون ملصقات لتعليم الفصول الأخرى عن إعادة التدوير. وأخيرًا ينظفون حديقة معًا.
في كينيا بدأ الطلاب مشروع "غداء بلا بلاستيك". يحضرون زجاجات معدنية وأكياسًا من القماش وأغلفة ورقية. بل إنهم يصنعون حقائب من الملابس القديمة، وهي فكرة مبدعة أبهرت عائلات كثيرة.
في الكويت بدأ الطلاب حملة لجمع الورق. يضعون صناديق في أنحاء المدرسة ويطلبون من الجميع استخدام وجهي الورقة. وكل شهر يجمعون الورق المستخدم ويرسلونه لإعادة التدوير. كما يزورون الفصول الأصغر لتعليم الأطفال كيفية الاعتناء بالبيئة.
يعرف هؤلاء الطلاب أن الأفعال الصغيرة مهمة. هل يستطيع فصلك أن يفكر في طريقة ذكية لتقليل النفايات؟
