The roads are dotted with trash, the railways are littered with decaying garbage and our cities are disgraced by plastic bags. There is no doubt that our cities are on the way towards becoming a huge landfill.One of the biggest sources of out city pollution comes from the lunch boxes people throw away after finishing their meals. Each day a large number of people will buy their lunch from the cafeteria. It is always served in a soft white box and at the end of lunchtime we have created a “sea of white” empty boxes. These boxes are really a very big problem because it takes many many years to deteriorate. And there are hundreds and hundreds more each day. It is a great pity that many people have got used to throwing away their garbage wherever they like without knowing that their misbehaviors are doing harm to our living environment as well as our own health.

One possible version:In this passage, the author takes lunch boxes as an example to illustrate that many people have got into the bad habit of littering which leads to the deterioration of our living environment. Therefore the author calls on everybody to get rid of littering. Obviously, people seem to have got accustomed to finding garbage thrown in the streets, on squares and beside empty dustbins. In my opinion, the reasons for the bad habit of garbage littering lie in two aspects. On one hand, many people are not aware of their misbehaviors and some people even take it as only a “small” thing that others should not make a fuss over. On the other hand, due to the inadequate facilities of garbage collection, people throw away their refuse everywhere at will. In view of the severity of the issue, we should adopt immediate measures to deal with it. First of all, the government should play a leading role. It ought to bring in strong anti-littering laws, backed by heavy penalties and effective enforcement. Also, officials should make good use of mass media to promote the public’s awareness of environmental protection, making sure that everyone will become a conscious environment protector. Finally, it is essential for schools to attach importance to environmental education, so that every child will become environmentally friendly and get rid of the littering habit. In conclusion, people’s littering habit is turning our communities into a rubbish holder. It is high time that we took joint effort to solve the rubbish problem. Otherwise, we will live with rubbish in the future.读写任务37阅读下面的短文，然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

One possible version:The dramatic ballad student, who later became a great performer, could not stand the repeated boring practice, which was to lead to his very success in his career. (28 words)As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. Consistent practice can result in perfect performance. Practice is of great importance in doing anything.Take my personal experience in learning English for example. Three years ago, I had great trouble with listening comprehension. I couldn’t understand the teacher in class, let alone tapes This was obviously due to my lack of practice in Junior High. To improve my listening, I started to read English aloud every morning and listen to tapes and radio programs every evening. My efforts paid off and in the final examination I did an excellent job in listening.I strongly believe that practice makes perfect. Whatever we do ,we should persist in it and keep on working until we are successful. (123 words)读写任务38阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
