Pollution has always been an uphill battle in Hong Kong. The most common types
of pollution are air pollution and water pollution. But do you know about light pollution? Not many
people know about light pollution in Hong Kong, but it is getting serious. At night, when we walk along
the Victoria Harbour, we can see buildings with very bright lights. They make a beautiful night view for
tourists, however, they also make it difficult for people to see the stars in the sky. If we do not do
anything to stop it now, we may never see the starry night sky again.
- What does the phrase ‘uphill battle’ mean?

I went to Ocean Park with Lily today. The whole park was decorated with jack-o’-lanterns.
We were over the moon because we both like Halloween! Once we entered the park,
staff members wearing different costumes greeted us nicely. They also gave us some festive souvenirs!
There were cartoon stickers in orange, stationery with pumpkin patterns and broom-shaped chocolate!
My favourite is a ruler with cute and lively pumpkins on it. After that, we went into the ‘haunted houses’
to find the ‘ghosts’. Although we know the ‘ghosts’ were played by the staff members, we still had a lot
of fun!
