3     Kessa carefully stacked the old newspapers and placed them in a recycling box. Then she put her rinsed-out plastic bottles in the recycling box for plastics.
 
4     Jamal stopped his little brother from throwing the burger wrapper on the ground. "It's not that far to the trash can," he said. Then he took the balled-up wrapper and tossed it into the can.
