My dear friends,
Each of us has the duty to obey public rules. Let’s say no to the bad behavior(行为).
Now,we can still see some people spit here and there. Sometimes, naughty children play with public facilities. Besides, a few people say bad words at each other. I think each of us should do good things. At school, we should walk on the right-hand side of the stairs. Don’t play on the stairs. In the dining hall, remember to stand in a line and wait for your turn. Be quiet when you eat. In the classroom, we must keep the desk clean. Don’t draw on the desk.
We need to obey public rules outside the school as well. When cross the road, please wait for the green light. While we are enjoying ourselves in the park, remember not to pick flowers or leave our waste things there.
Finally, I’d like to say, the more efforts we make, the better public places we will have.
