Read the story. Report what Nick, Mary and Mr Jones said.

Mr Jones is aware of the need for environmental protection. He has two children, Nick and Mary. One weekend, the family went to the beach to have a picnic. The seashore was much polluted because of the amount of waste left there. Mr Jones was very sad. He said, ‘All this rubbish is killing fish and other sea creatures.’ Nick immediately said, ‘We can clean the beach together.’ Mary said, ‘I will ask our friends and neighbours to come and help us.’ Mr Jones was very happy that his children wanted to help. He said, ‘I’m so happy to hear that, children.’ The following week, the family came back to the beach with many of their friends and neighbours. They also brought big carrier bags. Mr Jones gave them gloves and told them, ‘Protect yourselves from germs.’
