entertainment facility to the community in your area Decide which one you would choose

There are THREE options for you to choose:

- A sports centre

- A park with a lake

- A children’s playground

In my opinion, it should be a park with a beautiful lake because, you know, in my town there are a lot of private sport centres and children’s playgrounds Firstly, having

a park will make a town beautiful Secondly, people can go there to relax or do morning exercises or just to see the lake Finally, people of all ages can come to the park to entertain themselves by different ways, not just children or the youngsters In short, I believe/think a park with a lake would be the best option

friendly Decide which way you would choose as being the best one to make your area greener

- Recycle bins in public places

- Plant trees

- Educate the people on the environment

I think the most effective way to protect environment is educating the people on the environment If people fully understand about the serious consequences of their

Trang 10

actions to the environment such as throwing rubbish on the streets, smoking, and so son, they will control their actions better Singapore is a good example of green environment and the key is people’s good awareness towards environment Putting recycle bins in public places is not a good idea because, as we all know, although there are a lot of recycle bins everywhere people still put rubbish into the road Moreover, planting trees does not help very much since it cannot solve the environmental problems fully In conclusion, people should be educated on the environment
