Good afternoon, everyone,
I’d like to introduce my friend Christy to you all. Christy is a great example of how one person with 1 can make her dream a reality, so she should win the Student of the Year Award.
Christy loves to ride bikes. She does not just ride along city streets, 2 . She is interested in 3 trail (小路) rides. 4 Christy knew that people who love riding had to travel 5 the city to locate good bike trails, so she 6 to do something.
Christy knew that Roosevelt Park had a clean, lively creek(小溪)7 through it. 12 miles of land around the creek was 8 used. Christy decided to get together with other trail9 to ask the city council to 10 a bike path along the unused land. Christy 11 a petition (请愿书). She and other riders asked all of their biking friends if they would12 the list, and they gathered 300 signatures. The city council evaluated the 13 and, more 14 , agreed to allow the bike trail.
The 15 took two months of work, and now Roosevelt Park has a 16 bike trail. It has many ups and downs; it is a great ride. This trail is becoming one of the community’s important 17 spots. I can’t 18 with Christy when we ride together, but I am glad that she decided to work hard to begin the 19 of the Roosevelt Park bike path. Christy 20 this award because she acted on her dream, causing a community to come together.
