Cloze 4
Last week, our community organized a clean-up activity near the local river. 14-year-old Lin Tao signed up at once, because he hated to see the river become dirty and 1.
A few years ago, the river was 2 a lovely place for outdoor activities. Many people came to 3 themselves there. But later, some factories poured 4 waste into it secretly. People who lived nearby often covered their noses because of the bad 5.
Gradually, the water turned dark, and the river was no longer 6 for people to take a walk nearby. Rubbish 7 here and there. Lin Tao knew he must do something to 8 our home.
On the activity day, Lin Tao brought a big net and a pair of gloves. He worked hard to pick up plastic bottles and old boxes from the water. At noon, he stopped to 9 his hands and had a quick lunch.
His neighbour Mr Wang, a 10 scientist, came to join them too. Mr Wang told the kids that the polluted water would 11 the soil and harm crops nearby. It would also bring 12 to both humans and animals.
With everyone's effort, the river became much cleaner that afternoon. Lin Tao felt tired but 13. He realized that 14 small actions can make a big difference. We should keep the river clean 15 our future generations.
