九、One possible version:
During the Labor Day holiday this year, I plan to be a volunteer to help create a better environment for our community. On the morning of May 1st, I will get up early to pick up litter in the neighborhood, which will also be sorted into different kinds and thrown into different bins. After that, I will water the plants. What’s more, some of my neighbours will go on a trip, so I will walk the dog and take care of the pets for them. I believe it will be a meaningful experience for me.
I think such activities are important because they teach me the meaning of labor. I hope more students can join in and make our world a better place.
