Zhongshan is applying to be a National Civilized City . In order to build a civilized city, we students should try our best to behave well. Here are some suggestions.
First of all, we should be polite and civilized students. We need to be friendly to people around us. Besides, it’s important to keep the environment clean. Stop throwing rubbish or spit everywhere. It’s polite to say“Thanks” and “please” and so on. And we’d better not talk or laugh loudly in public. What's more , we should obey the traffic rules. Don't cross the road until the traffic light turns green. We can also try to help people in need by doing some voluntary work in our spare time. Last but not least, remember to wait in line when we wait for the bus or underground.
Everyone can make a difference. If everyone tries their best, I'm sure we will make our city more livable and civilized.

1)Work hard to make my own family live a better life.
2)If l’m rich enough, I will donate a lot for my hometown.

When I was young, homesickness was a tiny stamp,
Me on this side, mother on the other side.
When I grew up, homesickness was a narrow boat ticket,
Me on this side, bride on the other side.
But later on, homesickness was a low, low grave,
Me on the outside, mother on the inside.
And at present,homesickness becomes a shallow strait,
Me on this side, mainland on the other side.
Hometown has special meaning to us.No matter where we have moved or how far away we are,we can't get away from homesickness(乡愁).We get homesick(想家)because there is a connection between us and our hometown.
