Yuri: What's wrong, Jaden?
Jaden: My science homework is too difficult.
Yuri: What do you have to do?
Jaden: I need to find a way to save trees.
Yuri: That's easy. I've heard that we can save trees by using less paper.
Jaden: Oh, I think I've heard that, too. Then, I can just stop using paper cups.
Yuri: Yes! You can also use just one paper towel to dry off your hands.
Jaden: That's impossible. I need at least two or three paper towels.
Yuri: Just shake your hands before you use a paper towel. Then, one will be more than enough.
Jaden: Oh, that's a good idea, Yuri! I'll try that next time.
Yuri: Good! Just don't forget to shake your hands at least 10 times.
