One Saturday morning, I was watching TV with my parents when a piece of news caught our attentions. The Guangming Park called on people adopt trees. That's exact what we had been thinking about. So on the next morning, we went to the park directly. A worker there gave us a detailed introduction or showed us to the pine woods. We choose a beautiful pine tree and the worker tied a adoption card to it. When my name was seeing on the card, I was so proud and felt a sense of responsibility at the same time. To memorize the excited moment, we took photos with our new family member—the pine tree. In one of the photos, we both smiled from the bottom of our hearts.
