Alaska is perhaps the most amazing state in the USA. It has coastlines facing both the Arctic
Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. This state has an incredible three million lakes. That’s four lakes per
person living there.
Many cities in Alaska cannot be reached by road, sea, or river. The only way to get in and out
is by air, on foot, or by dogsled. That’s why Alaska has the busiest sea airport in the world, Lake Hood
Seaplane Base. Nearly two hundred floatplanes take off and land on the water of this airport every day.
It is a really fun scene to watch.

Visual pollution has a greater effect on people than you may think. I remember when I went to
a big city, I was really scared because so much graffiti on the buildings' wall. Then I looked up, and I
saw a lot of power lines over my head. Although they were not dangerous, I still felt unsafe since I
thought they might fall down. These things prevented me from enjoying the beautiful sights of the city.
I also remember the time when I was a student at a university. Once I was so busy with my
assignments that I did not tidy my room for two weeks. Looking at the messy room caused me so
much stress that I did not want to study. Then I decided to clean the room and put my thing in their
proper places. I also bought a small plants and placed it in a corner of the room. These simple actions
