Dear human beings,

The best thing for you to do now is to stop your bad practices. Please stop 45 us becarse we are the best fighters against pollution and we are your best friends!
I wish you all the best!
Your friend,
An old tree

When I first moved to Melbourne, my new city seemed to me big and unfriendly. One day, I decided to Royal Melbourne Hospital for a medical exam because I was worried that maybe I had got a serious illness.
Not having a car, I had to get to the hospital by bus. However, I mistakenly got on a bus that was going in the opposite direction. Realizing that, I got off the bus quickly, stood on the street and didn’t know what to do. I looked into the eyes of a woman who was walking past me. Surprisingly, instead of moving on , she stopped to ask if I was OK. I started to explain my situation to her, and tears started running down my face. The woman pointed to a bus stop across the street and told me that a bus would be there soon and it would take me to the hospital. Then she left.
When I was waiting for the bus at the bus stop, a car stopped beside me. It was the woman. She returned and offered to drive me to the hospital.
