六、To Make Our Hometown Better
Hello, everyone. I'm Lin Hua. It's my honor to talk about how to make our hometown better. I think we can try our best to make our hometown beautiful.
First, we can ride bikes instead of taking buses or cars when we go to school. Second, we should turn off the lights when we leave a room. What's more, we can use cloth bags when we go shopping. It would be better if we sort the litter and don't throw it around. Planting trees is a good way to make the air fresh.
I believe our hometown will be better.
Thank you for listening!
