◆◆范文欣赏
Dear teachers and students,
A clean environment can help people feel happy and healthy. But now our environment has become worse and worse. So how can we help to protect it Here are some ways.
First,we can stop driving our private cars. We can go to school or work on foot or by bus. It not only can protect the environment,but also is good for our health.Second,we are supposed to sort the rubbish into different kinds because some can be reused or recycled. Third,we should turn off the lights when leaving a room.What’s more,stop littering! It’s necessary to put things you don’t need in the bin.
There’s a lot for us to do. I think if everyone does something,our environment will become better and better.
One possible version:
I took part in an activity about saving and protecting water last Saturday. In this activity, Professor Li gave a talk. And after that, we had a discussion about how to save and protect water.
Now I know that some of the rivers are polluted in our city. We are short of water although there are some rivers and lakes in our city. So we need to save and protect water. We needn’t do big things. We can start out small. For example, don’t leave water running after using it or throw rubbish into the rivers.
In a word, I’ve learned a lot from the activity. It was so great and useful.
