Passage 20: A Community Clean-Up Day

Our community held a clean-up day last Saturday to make the neighborhood more beautiful. Many residents, including children and the elderly, joined the activity. We divided into groups—some picked up litter on the streets, some cleaned the park, and others planted flowers in the community garden.

I was in the group that cleaned the park. We brought gloves, trash bags, and brooms. The park was messy with plastic bottles, paper bags, and fallen leaves. We worked hard—some picked up litter, some swept the ground, and others sorted the trash into recyclable and non-recyclable. A little boy helped his mom carry the trash bag, and his ________（认真的） attitude impressed everyone.

After three hours of hard work, the park looked clean and tidy. The grass was green, the paths were clear, and the flowers were blooming. The community leader praised us for our efforts and said, “A clean environment makes everyone’s life better.” We took a group photo to ________（纪念） the day.

This activity made me realize that protecting the environment is everyone’s responsibility. It also brought the community closer together—neighbors helped each other and talked happily. I plan to take part in more community activities and do my part to ________（建设） a better living environment.

1. serious（认真的） 2. commemorate（纪念） 3. build（建设）
