In the past, plastic bags were offered at no cost in nearly every shop. As a consequence, enormous numbers of bags ended up in landfills, rivers, or even drifting in the ocean. Because plastic is extremely slow to decompose, these discarded bags posed long-term threats to marine life, birds, and even human health. To tackle this growing problem, the government began charging shoppers for plastic bags in 2002. At first, many citizens resisted the idea, feeling it was inconvenient. However, over time, people gradually adapted. Nowadays, it is common to see customers carrying reusable shopping bags. Surveys indicate that plastic bag depletion in Taiwan has dropped by more than half since the policy was launched, demonstrating the effectiveness of such a regulation. In addition to reducing plastic waste, Taiwan is actively expanding its use of renewable energy. Wind turbines along the western coast and solar panels on rooftops have become increasingly widespread. The government has set an ambitious target: by 2025, 20% of the nation’s electricity should come from renewable sources. These initiatives reflect a broader vision—not only protecting the environment but also inspiring individuals to reflect on their daily habits. Even simple actions, such as conserving electricity or carrying a reusable cup, can collectively create a meaningful influence on the planet’s future.

31. What environmental issue did Taiwan face before the plastic bag policy? (A) Plastic bags caused serious pollution. (B) Shoppers lacked reusable bags. (C) Renewable energy was too expensive. (D) Shops refused to sell plastic products.

32. How did many people feel when the government first charged for plastic bags? (A) They welcomed the idea right away. (B) They resisted it at first. (C) They were completely indifferent. (D) They immediately stopped using plastic bags.

33. According to the passage, what is Taiwan’s renewable energy goal for 2025? (A) To replace all electricity with solar power. (B) To stop building wind turbines along the coast. (C) To produce 20% of electricity from renewable sources. (D) To close down all nuclear power plants.

34. What does the passage suggest about small individual actions, such as bringing a reusable cup? (A) They are meaningless compared to government policies. (B) They are unnecessary if renewable energy is developed. (C) They save money but have no effect on the environment. (D) They can contribute to larger environmental change.
