Question

New glass bottles are made mainly of silica sand. The sand is melted in a furnace, at a very high temperature. Recycled glass bottles are made in a very similar way, but cost less and use up fewer natural resources.
The process begins when people take their used bottles and jars to a bottle bank. Next, the bottle and jars are taken by lorry to the recycling plant. At the plant, bottle tops and lids are removed. After that, the glass is crushed into small pieces. The crushed glass is then sent by lorry to a bottle factory. Here, it is mixed with a small amount of silica sand. It is then melted in a furnace, at a lower temperature than new glass. Finally, the hot liquid glass is drawn out of the furnace and fed into machinery that makes it in to bottles. Recycled glass is pure and as strong as new glass. Glass can be recycled many times without losing its quality.

What is the text mainly about?
a. how glass is recycled
b. how glass is crushed into small pieces
c. how glass is transported to the factory
d. how to mix glass with the silica sand
e. how silica is melt
