The Earth Is Our Home
Dialog 1
A: What a nice park!
B: Yes, it really is.

Let's Read
On Saturday, Nari and her friends took part in a clean-up campaign. In the evening, Nari wrote the following in her diary.
Saturday, October 24th. Sunny.
My friends and I went to the park near our school. We went there to take part in the clean-up campaign. We collected a lot of trash. We were surprised that there was so much trash.
People say that the earth is our home. I asked myself, "Is it a nice home?" I also asked myself, "Are we treating the earth well?" I don't think that it is a nice home. And I don't think that we are treating it well. We must treat the earth well. Then, it will be a nice home.
A lot of thick smoke and bad gas are coming from factories and cars. These things make the air dirty. Then, dirty air makes us sick.
Also, a lot of dirty water is coming from factories and houses. Where does this dirty water go? It goes into rivers. Of course, fish can't live in dirty rivers. We can't swim in them, either.
I want to breathe fresh air, and swim in clean rivers. I also want to walk through clean and beautiful parks. I really want to live in a nice home.
