6. 经典范文
Sandstorms usually happen in spring. This year, sandstorms started in late March. More than 70 million people have had problems because of the storms. I went to attend a speech during the storms this spring. The sky was dark and the land was covered with sand. Buses and cars all moved slowly. People couldn’t see for even 20 metres. What should we do to stop the sandstorms from happening? I think everyone should protect our environment.
