Please read the following article by following the link. Please look up any vocabulary that you do not know.

This is a common problem in North American areas where a lot of snow falls. Of course, people must shovel the snow, but what can they do if it's dangerous to do so?

In your home city or country, are there any activities that are very important to do, but that some elderly people shouldn't do because it's not safe for them?

In Canada, it used to be common for the neighbourhood kids to shovel the snow and cut the grass for their elderly neighbours. This is not common anymore. Should parents encourage (force) their kids to help the neighbours?

Do neighbours help each other in your home city?

See you in class!
