READ TEXT III AND ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTION:

Plastic Dreams

by Sarah Thompson

Plastic dreams, oh plastic dreams, a vision turned nightmare, Once a symbol of progress, now a burden we must bear.

Our landfills overflow with your synthetic remains, A haunting testament to our unsustainable chains.

Plastic dreams, oh plastic dreams, a promise unfulfilled, Your convenience a facade, your consequences concealed.

Let us wake from this slumber, this toxic desire, To create a world where nature's essence can inspire.

In our hands lies the power, to choose a different fate, To abandon plastic dreams and embrace a sustainable state.

For only through conscious choices, can we break this vicious spell, And ensure a future where our planet and poetry can dwell.
