Task 1: The pictures below show the process of making clothes from recycled plastic bottles.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons
where relevant

The diagram illustrates the process by which plastic bottles are recycled and transformed to
make clothing.

Overall, the garment-making process from recycled plastic bottles is a man-made process with
thirteen distinct steps, beginning with transporting waste plastic material and ending with
producing complete clothes.

[this is not inappropriate paragraph opening, you need to signal which part of the process you
are going to be discussing here you could state something like “Looking first at the process of
changing plastic bottles into usable fibres…”]In the initial stage, plastic bottles are collected and
transported by recycling truck to manufacturing areas. For the second stage, such plastic
materials will be transformed into fibers. Firstly, those bottles are sorted and cut into small
pieces. Next, they are it is delivered to a washing machine and cleaned to remove dirt. Then,
after having been dried under the heat of the sun for 10 hours, the plastic pieces are put in a
boiler to be melted down meltdown. After that, the liquid it is stored in containers for straining,
in which the plastic material is deformed into fiber material. [I feel that this last part should be
in the next paragraph, because forming the fibre material is really part of the clothing process,
it seems like this is the first part that isn't about the original plastic bottles]

[nothing here to signal how you have separated the data]As for the final stage, the yarn goes
such materials go into a loom machine, from which textile fabrics are woven and shaped into
rolls. Finally, the rolls of fabric are used to make shirts, which the clothes now are ready to be
worn used..
