I will watch the fabulous dragon boat race on the Pearl River. I know that the best and biggest race is in Panyu, but I will watch it from close to where I live just south of the Ersha Dao.

我打算去看看珠江上面精彩的龙舟赛。 虽然我知道规模最大的龙舟赛会在番禺区举行， 但我情愿在我家附近的二沙岛南岸观看比赛。

We pick up litter in parks, on sidewalks, practically anywhere. once I even saw a complete stranger picking up litter close to where we live.

我们在公园里，人行道上，几乎任何地方捡拾拉圾。曾经有一次，我在我们家附近看到一位陌生人在捡垃圾。
