My family prefers to use public transportation when we travel. We take the bus or the subway because it's more environmentally friendly than driving. We always follow the traffic rules and never cross the street when the light is red. Additionally, we always wear seatbelts when we are in a car.
My hometown is in YiChang City, Hubei Province, which is rich in fruits. There are peaches in May, watermelons and strawberries in July and August. By the end of September, peoples favorite oranges have matured.
Oranges are planted on the terraces on the hillside. The dense branches and leaves spread out in all directions, just like a green canopy. The oranges we produce here are very sweet, thin skinned and golden in color. If you peel the orange, break off a flap, put it into your mouth, there will be a mouthful of sweet water. Orange peel is also useful. It can be used as medicine and spice. It can also remove peculiar smell when put in the refrigerator.
