What kind of trees do people usually plant in your hometown?
Well..there are a large variety of trees that people usually plant in Chengdu.I guess the most popular one would be bamboo because it is an essential part of the giant panda's daily diet.Besides,you can also find a large number of Gingko trees in the city as they look stunning in autumn with golden leaves turning the ground around it into a yellow ocean.
Do you like planting trees?Why?
To be honest,I am not very interested in planting trees.It's simply because of the inconvenience of this kind of activity.
First of all,I can hardly find a location in the city to plant a tree!Then,tree planting is also a difficult work involving a lot of procedures like digging a hole and providing follow-up cares.Personally,i think it's very troublesome so I don't particularly enjoy planting trees.
