Знаете ли вы знаменитостей на фотографиях? Как вы думаете, почему этих людей называют эко-знаменитостями?

Ответ:

1 Yes, I recognize the celebrities in the pictures; they are actor Leonardo DiCaprio and chef Jamie Oliver. They are called eco-celebrities because they are famous people who do things to help the environment. The text explains that they use renewable energy like solar and wind power, ride bikes, and encourage others to live a "green" lifestyle. They use their fame to set a good example.

Да, я узнаю знаменитостей на фотографиях; это актер Леонардо ДиКаприо и шеф-повар Джейми Оливер. Их называют эко-знаменитостями, потому что это известные люди, которые помогают окружающей среде. В тексте объясняется, что они используют возобновляемую энергию, такую как солнечная и ветровая, ездят на велосипедах и призывают других вести «зеленый» образ жизни. Они используют свою известность, чтобы подавать хороший пример.
