Everyone needs help sometimes. People depend on one another. That’s why communities have special people ready to help people in need.
For example, what would we do without a community fire station If a home catches fire, as the Jacksons’ place did last week, it might be burned down (烧毁) and people might get hurt…or worse. We’re so lucky to have firemen to come to save people and put out the fire safely.
And what about police officers They protect our families, our homes and important things. The police have helped so many families this past year, especially saving people and pets and protecting our houses and other things after the heavy rain.
Think about all the other service workers in this community. There are cleaners to collect rubbish and keep our community sanitary. We have road workers and they put up and repair traffic signs and fix holes in the streets to protect not just us, but our cars! And what would this community be without the teachers in our school and the doctors and nurses in our community hospitals
Think again about what we eat every day and what we wear every day. We cannot produce (生产) them, but we use them all the time. These tireless workers keep our community running. We get a lot from them and need them in the community. We depend on each other. Let’s help each other. Only in this way can we make our community a better place.

重难语篇拔高练
Everyone needs help sometimes. People depend on one another. That’s why communities have special people ready to help people in need.
For example, what would we do without a community fire station If a home catches fire, as the Jacksons’ place did last week, it might be burned down (烧毁) and people might get hurt…or worse. We’re so lucky to have firemen to come to save people and put out the fire safely.
And what about police officers They protect our families, our homes and important things. The police have helped so many families this past year, especially saving people and pets and protecting our houses and other things after the heavy rain.
Think about all the other service workers in this community. There are cleaners to collect rubbish and keep our community sanitary. We have road workers and they put up and repair traffic signs and fix holes in the streets to protect not just us, but our cars! And what would this community be without the teachers in our school and the doctors and nurses in our community hospitals
Think again about what we eat every day and what we wear every day. We cannot produce (生产) them, but we use them all the time. These tireless workers keep our community running. We get a lot from them and need them in the community. We depend on each other. Let’s help each other. Only in this way can we make our community a better place.

3．What does the underlined word “sanitary” mean
