Question

There is plenty of beauty in Shanghai. Even though there are a lot of people(and cars and trucks and pollution) , the city is great! For example, I love many of the modern skyscrapers(摩天大楼）. I also love the old temples(寺庙）,and the wonderful tree-lined streets.

But some people in Shanghai just don’t stop to think about how beautiful their city is and how they can help to keep it that way. Or maybe they just don’t care?

There are a lot of litterbugs(随意扔垃圾的人）in Shanghai，people who throw their rubbish everywhere. I’m talking about people of all ages-old people, middle-aged people， high school and middle school students. Why don’t they just find a rubbish bin since there are many of them on every street?

If you want to turn a place that is very beautiful into something that is very ugly,just cover it with rubbish. A pleasant tree-lined street can look like a garbage dump(垃圾场）at once!

What should we do with people that litter? I hope when we catch    them    doing    it，we  bring them to the centre of the city,and throw the things    they dropped    at  them!    Perhaps  that would make them stop and think before they litter again.

I do have a small suggestion for China’s middle-school students. Next time you are about to throw something on the ground,stop and think about how beautiful your city is. Then find a rubbish bin and pretend you’re Yao Ming一dunk (手口篮）the rubbish in the basket and score 2 points for the environment!
