I Am a Litter Picker!

Looking at this scene, I came up with an idea: my school really needed a ________programme.

I believed that one person could make a ________ －one person with initiative (主動性), ________ I wrote out my recycling plans and one morning got a pass to the schoolmaster's office. As I told her about my ________ , my heart was beating wildly.

That night, I designed a dozen ________ and planned to arrive at school early to stick them up and hand out ________ to classrooms on Monday.

A few days later, however, my English teacher took me into the new computer lab, and before my eyes sat a mountain of cardboard boxes.
