Sally Dawly is a woman from Auburn,California.Over the last three and a half years,the anti-littering woman has spent most of her free time picking up cigarette butts(煙頭)from the streets of her home city.
   Called the "Butt Lady" by her local community,Dawly began her mission to rid the streets of her city of cigarette butts in October,2014.The woman looked for cigarette butts,picked them up and threw them in the trash.To keep a count of how many butts she picks up,the Butt Lady has been using a tablet(平板電腦),and earlier this month,she hit a historic milestone—one million cigarette butts.
   "I got tired of going on my walks and seeing cigarette butts everywhere," Sally Dawly said. "I'm just shocked that I had to pick up so many.I've ever picked up 3,000 butts in one day," she said. "Don't throw away your butts;better yet,stop smoking."
   With so many cigarette butts littering the streets,can one person's efforts really make a difference?Surprisingly,the answer seems to be yes.Soon after the Butt Lady of Auburn started her mission and word of her efforts spread,cigarette cans started appearing around bars and restaurants in the city.Members of the local community even came out to cheer her on as she approached her one-million-butt milestone.
   Sally knows her city's cigarette butt littering problem won't be solved anytime soon,but she hopes her work will inspire people to at least think twice before dropping cigarette butts in the streets.She has decided to continue cleaning up after irresponsible smokers,and already has a new milestone in her sights—two million cigarette butts.
   Word of the Butt Lady's efforts to keep the streets cigarette butt-free has reached neighboring communities as well,and CBS Sacramento reports that other cities have started seeking her help as well.

  • 3.Before my first hike to the Rocky Mountains,I was a homebody.I had friends to hang out with,several hobbies,and I felt comfortable spending weeks or even months in my hometown without going anywhere.I thought there was no difference between seeing something on TV and seeing something with one's own eyes.
