Question: What do you do when you see rubbish on the street?

If I see rubbish on the street and there’s a bin nearby, I usually pick it up and throw it away. I think it’s important to keep the city clean and set a good example for others.

When I notice rubbish on the street, I usually pick it up and throw it away if there’s a bin nearby. I care about keeping my city clean and feel a sense of responsibility for the environment. Plus, I think it sets a good example for others to follow.

1. Present simple tense: The answer uses present simple ("I notice," "I usually pick it up," "I care," "I think") to describe regular actions and opinions, which is appropriate for this context. 2. Conditional clause: "if there’s a bin nearby" is a first conditional clause, showing the ability to use conditional structures naturally. 3. Infinitive of purpose: "to follow" in "for others to follow" shows the use of infinitive to express purpose.

Sometimes I just ignore rubbish on the street, especially if I’m in a hurry or if it looks dirty. I think it’s the job of the cleaners to take care of it.

To be honest, I sometimes ignore rubbish on the street, especially if I’m rushing somewhere or if the rubbish looks really dirty or dangerous. In my mind, it’s usually the responsibility of city workers to deal with it.

1. Use of adverbs of frequency: "sometimes" shows the speaker's habit or tendency, which is a natural way to express frequency in spoken English. 2. Use of conditional clauses: "especially if I’m rushing somewhere or if the rubbish looks really dirty or dangerous" uses "if" to introduce conditions, making the answer more nuanced and detailed.

If there’s a lot of rubbish, I might report it to the local authorities. I don’t always want to touch it myself, but I still want to help.

If I see a lot of rubbish in one place, I might report it to the local authorities. Some cities even have apps for reporting litter, which makes it easier to help out without having to touch it myself.

1. First conditional: "If I see a lot of rubbish in one place, I might report it..." This uses the first conditional to talk about a possible action in the future, showing flexibility in grammar. 2. Relative clause: "which makes it easier to help out without having to touch it myself" uses a relative clause to add extra information about the apps, making the answer more complex and natural.
