Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day (or Saint Valentine's Day) is a holiday that, in the United States, takes place
on February 14, and technically signifies the accomplishments of St. Valentine, a third-
century Roman saint.
With that said, most Americans, instead of honoring St. Valentine through religious
ceremony, enjoy the holiday by engaging in "romantic" behavior with their significant other
or someone who they wish to be their significant other; gifts, special dinners, and other
acknowledgements of affection comprise most individuals' Valentine's Day celebrations.
Chocolates and flowers are commonly given as gifts during Valentine's Day, as are
accompanying greeting cards (greeting card companies release new Valentine's Day designs
annually). Red and pink are generally understood to be "the colors" of Valentine's Day, and
many individuals, instead of celebrating romantically, spend the holiday with their friends
and/or family members.
Variations of Valentine's Day are celebrated across the globe throughout the year. In
America, the holiday, although acknowledged by the vast majority of the population, isn't
federally recognized; no time off work is granted for Valentine's Day.

3. What kind of gifts are usually given on Valentine’s Day?
4. Besides in the US, where is Valentine’s Day celebrated?
5. What is the main idea of paragraph 2?
Answer the questions number 6-8 based on the text bellow!

The Environment

In our modern world, there are many factors that place the wellbeing of the planet in
jeopardy. While some people have the opinion that environmental problems are just a natural
occurrence, others believe that human beings have a huge impact on the environment.
Regardless of your viewpoint, take into consideration the following factors that place our
environment as well as the planet Earth in danger.

Global warming or climate change is a major contributing factor to environmental damage.


Because of global warming, we have seen an increase in melting ice caps, a rise in sea levels,
and the formation of new weather patterns. These weather patterns have caused stronger
storms, droughts, and flooding in places that they formerly did not occur.

Air pollution is primarily caused as a result of excessive and unregulated emissions of carbon
dioxide into the air. Pollutants mostly emerge from the burning of fossil fuels in addition to
chemicals, toxic substances, and improper waste disposal. Air pollutants are absorbed into the
atmosphere, and they can cause smog, a combination of smoke and fog, in valleys as well as
produce acidic precipitation in areas far away from the pollution source.

In many areas, people and local governments do not sustainably use their natural resources.
Mining for natural gases, deforestation, and even improper use of water resources can have
tremendous effects on the environment. While these strategies often attempt to boost local
economies, their effects can lead to oil spills, interrupted animal habitats, and droughts.

Ultimately, the effects of the modern world on the environment can lead to many problems.
Human beings need to consider the repercussions of their actions, trying to reduce, reuse, and
recycle materials while establishing environmentally sustainable habits. If measures are not
taken to protect the environment, we can potentially witness the extinction of more
endangered species, worldwide pollution, and a completely uninhabitable planet.
