??? Our government is aiming to build a “harmonious society”. I think it is every citizen’s duty to work hard to achieve this goal.
??? As high school students, what should we do?
??? First of all, we should love our motherland. Let’s take a great interest in the development of our hometowns and take an active part in our school and activities.??? Secondly, let’s fill the world with love. We should show our respect for old people, our parents and our teachers. We should also care for each other and help those in need. More importantly, all of us must be faithful and honest in our daily life.
??? Finally, let’s work together to save energy and protect our natural environment, including animals, trees, flowers and grass.??? As for myself, I will study even harder and try my best to do all the above.
Dear fellow students, let’s start fight now and spare no effort / efforts to do a little bit every day, every hour, and every minute!
Thanks.
