Read the essay. Then answer: Which detail is least relevant to the author's main point? Paragraph 1: Recycling at home is a simple way to reduce waste. I think families should sort trash because it helps the environment. It also keeps reusable items out of landfills. Paragraph 2: In my kitchen, we keep a small bin for paper and boxes. We rinse cans and bottles so they do not smell. Each Saturday, we carry the bin to the curb. Paragraph 3: My brother labels the bins with bright markers. We learned which plastics our town accepts by reading a flyer. When we forget, the recycling truck leaves a note. Paragraph 4: Sometimes we also donate old clothes instead of throwing them away. This reduces trash and helps other people. These habits show that small choices can matter.
