Do you often run outdoors to keep healthy？ Have you ever thought about how running helps to clean up the earth？ Sometimes a creative mind can bring us a win﹣win（双赢） situation.
Plogging， a new way to exercise， began in Sweden. The name "plogging" comes from two words the Swedish word "plocka"，which means "to pick up"， and the word "jogging"，which means "to run slowly". A Swedish man called Eric started the movement. He saw rubbish here and there when riding to work each day. He became worried about the dirty environment and decided not to go to work by bike any more. Instead， he began to run to work and pick up the rubbish at the same time. To his joy， more and more people followed him and soon plogging became popular.
Many people choose plogging instead of just jogging because they think plogging is a good way to help clean up the earth. Sometimes rubbish is difficult to collect because it may scatterall around. But if the runners pick up the rubbish on the way， it is quite different. After all， many hands make light work.Another reason is that plogging burns 48 calories（卡路里）. According to a reseach， plogging for 10 minutes burns 48 calories， while usual jogging for 10 minutes burns about 39 calories.
Everyone on the earth should play a part in cleaning it up! It's time for us to take action together. So ready？ Let's plog tomorrow!

One day, my mother said, “Let’s buy you some new clothes.” I was very happy and surprised because my family didn’t have much money at that time. I bought three dresses, a pink one, a blue one and, best of all, a yellow and blue one. I loved that yellow and blue dress.
