TASK 2
Sample writing:
My house is located in a busy and noisy street where there are some pressing 
environmental problems that need addressing. First, there is often lots of rubbish in 
the street. Many mindless inhabitants do not have the habit of dropping litter in the 
right place or clearing up dog poops after walking the dogs, which makes the street 
dirty and unhygienic. Therefore, in my opinion, fining those people heavily would 
be a better way to tackle this issue. Second, there is a lack of green space here. It’s 
essential for us to build a nearby park with lots of trees and flowers for children and 
old people to play and relax. Finally, the local authorities should limit the cars 
moving on the street here because day by day we are suffering from the deafening 
sounds and toxic exhaust fumes causing negative effects on our health. In short, 
these environmental problems can be dealt with effectively with the contribution of 
both the government and every single individual.
