2. LITTER IS A PROBLEM IN OUR CITIES
Litter is garbage like food, bits of paper, odds and ends, empty
bottles, cans lying about on the ground, in the street or in public
places. Our cities are very large and many people do not care
about the beauty of their city. They do not always put the paper in
a litter bin or in a garbage can. It is easy for them to drop it in the
street. But litter is ugly and it spoils the view.
Litter is a health problem, too. Food and garbage bring animals and
these animals sometimes carry disease. When the wind blows it

go on a trip to the mountains or to the seaside you must pick up
your litter after a picnic. People must work together in groups to
clean up their city. People pay a fine if they throw papers in the
