New invention can be the hope of sea

Do you know might be ingesting almost 11,000 pieces of plastics per year? All of those tiny bits of plastics were belong off our clothes. This type of pollution was created when we go the laundry. Also, recent researches shows up to 700,000 microfibers can emitted from a typical 6kg vesture when washed. 
By contrast, Rachal Miller and her husband devoted their time to create a gadget for capturing unnoticeable plastic pieces. The scientists notice some of organic pollutants, like polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and dichlorobiphenyl trichloroethane (DDT), can stick together, forming a nasty mix of visible pollution.


 The creators of this gadget called "Cora Ball". It is constructed by recyclable material and imitate the structure of coral in the ocean. They invented many options of colours and sizes. the usual is 10cm in diameter. However, this gadget can't filter every pollution. The company says it captures between a quarter and a third of microfibers in every wash.

Undoubtedly, this invention will help the environment, however the researches couldn't stop. We should keeping improve and create new innovations to combat the pollution.

    Opinion: I wish I was this inventive. Sometimes, we can be unknowingly impact the environment in a harmful way. I've read in an article once that big clothing brands like Zara or H&M are causing disastrous effects because clothes are hard to break down. I think we should create more markets to recycle clothes and find a solution to make clothing in sustainable materials.

    Grammar: Do you know might be ingesting almost 11,000 pieces of plastics per year? All of those tiny bits of plastics were belong off our clothes. = Did you know that you might be ingesting almost 11,000 pieces of plastics per year? All of those tiny bits of plastics are likely to come off from our own clothes.

    No. I didn't know this kind of gadget.

    What kind of changes would you do?

    I want a gadget to clean up clothes which got something like dirty oil.

    Keep inventing gadgets to combat the pollution or change the material of our clothes? Why?

    I think we can do both in future because technology is always evolving and qualities are developing as well.


    grammar: you need [ , ] after ''however''

    Yuki-chan . I've never heard it. I'd like to make a sink that keeps insects away. I prefer either of them because I think it's better

relative pronouns and Noun clause

I learned that we can't use "that" in relative sentence. For example, " This car, which I bought last year, was broken." is correct, but we can't say "This car, that I bought last year, was broken. Also, when we use noun clause, we can't use noun in the sentence. We have to write uncomplete sentence.  After noun clause, we should put verb.

Bohemian Rhapsody

I watched Bohemian Rhapsody yesterday. I haven't known the queen very well, but compare real Freddy Mercury to actor, he played Mercury's roll very well. The name of actor is Rami Malek. I thought his dance captures real Mercury's character.  I think in the world, there are a lot of fun of queen, so the pressure to play a role was amazing. However, he was acting very confidently. According to the article, he said he always watch through the lyrics Mercury wrote, he tried to get into character and it's took 1 year. For him, great pressure got motivated.  Also he said a very difficult part was to play the piano while lying down. When I watched this scene, I was very overwhelmed. I think after watched this movie, everyone want to listen to the music of queen.
