With the development of the society, there are too many cars on the streets in our city. Cars have made the air unhealthy for people to breathe. Black smoke and poisonous gas are given off by factories. Factories also put waste into the river. And wherever we go, we can find rubbish. Now more and more people have realized these problems. I think that governments should close down the factories and develop laws to stop people from driving cars every day.

I hope the problem will be solved in the near future and our home will become better and better. Self Check 1. Write different forms of the words.
