E-mail – The Olympics is Coming! Clean Streets

July 22, 2008 · Leave a Comment

The Olympics will be held in Beijing next mounth. I belive everyone is waiting for this Olympic Game  - it is all so exciting.  Now we are already in July!  You can see many changes in Beijing everywhere.  Everyone is taking great care of the environment around themselves.  No matter when and where they see rubbish on the road, they pick it up and put it into the dustbin.  You can see workers coating the stockade at the side of the road, fixing the street light, and  cleaning the ads on the wall.  You can also see many tourists taking picutures everywhere.  Beijing is getting more and more beautiful.  Here is a picture taken outside of the”Nest.”  We all belive it will be a really successful event. 

 When I asked a street cleaner, “do you like your job?” He answerd in a proud voice, “Yes ,I like it very much!  If I can do more for the Olympics, I’ll try my best!  My job is not clean the street, my job is to beautify the environment.”
