They had to touch and feel the fish.\nVisitors like us were also excited to see such an interesting game. We cheered and laughed. Although most people didn't catch even one fish, everyone was so happy that day. The game was really interesting.\n\n<question>:\nWhat did the writer think of the game?\n\n<options>:\nA Tiring.\nB Interesting.\nC Difficult.\nD Easy.\n\n<answer>:\n",

Turn off lights, your television, and your computer when you've stopped using them. To make electricity, fossil fuels are burned in big factories. But burning fossil fuels also makes greenhouse gases. You should also try to watch less TV.\n(2) Plant trees. Not only is it a fun thing to do, but it is also a great way to lower the number of greenhouse gases in the air. Trees take carbon dioxide out of the air when they grow.\n(3) Don't throw away your rubbish, try to recycle it. If rubbish is not recycled, it is put in the ground.
