C Last summer in Sydney, I joined my cousin for a beach cleanup at the famous Bondi Beach and learnt valuable lessons. At sunrise, we met the other 18 people wearing blue hats. My cousin gave me an eco-friendly (环保的) rubbish bag and pointed at the seagulls (海鸥) flying overhead. “Many of them often eat plastic (塑料) by mistake,” she said. As I picked up rubbish, I found colourful plastic pieces in the sand. After an hour, my bag was full of rubbish, such as cigarette ends, bottle caps, and broken fishing lines. My hands smelled terrible. Just as I was getting tired, my cousin shouted, “Come and look at this!” Near some rocks, we found a stone painted with a turtle (乌龟) and the words “THANK YOU CLEANERS”. The organizer said, “Some school kids painted this last month.” Three hours later, we’d collected about 107 kilograms of rubbish! Seeing the dirty beach turn clean, I finally understood: Every person’s effort makes a real difference. Three lessons stayed with me: ①________: A plastic bottle dropped in other countries might float to the beach in Australia. ②________: 20 people cleared about 107 kilograms of rubbish in three hours! ③________: The turtle and the words on the stone show that kids care about the environment too.

A cleanup that changed me D. Bondi Beach tourism guide D When I was young, life was so hard. Although my parents tried their best, we couldn’t make enough money. Sometimes, getting enough food would be a problem for us. To celebrate my birthday, my mother always boiled (煮) an egg for me, and that was the only thing she could do. I got a boiled egg on my seventh birthday as usual. After peeling it, I cut it into three parts to share it with my parents. They agreed after having a look at each other. My mother promised that she would have it later and my father left with a part of the egg. I was happy with what I did. The next morning, my mother brought me a bowl of vegetable soup for breakfast. I was so hungry and drank most of it in one go. Just then, I found some egg debris (碎片) in the rest of the soup. My eyes were full of tears. My parents left the world one after another ten years ago.
