Q1: Can you name five different things made of plastic?

[Answer]

Plastics are among the most modern materials.

Plastics are not found in nature, but have to be made out of other materials, mainly oil.

Plastics have thousands of uses. They are lightweight, they can be shaped, they can be woven into cloth, made into sheets, and used as paints. They hold the heat and protect us from electricity. Electricity cables are made from plastic.
