Introduction

Leaders in Delhi and Noida have new plans. They want to stop dust and dirt from roads and buildings from making the air dirty.

Main Body

Delhi started a program called Road RADAR. Thirteen workers use GPS and a phone app. They look for dust and trash on 18,000 kilometers of roads. They send 1,000 reports every day to help the city clean the streets. In Noida, a group called CAQM started Operation Clean Air. Nineteen teams checked 46 roads. They found 28 problems with dust and building waste. The leaders told Noida to use more water and machines to clean the roads. Some experts say these plans are good. However, they say the government must show the public the results. This helps people know if the air is really getting cleaner.

Conclusion

Delhi uses digital tools and Noida uses road checks. Both cities want to stop pollution now.

πŸ“¦ The 'Quantity + Thing' Pattern

To reach A2, you must describe how much or how many. Look at how the text builds clear pictures using numbers:

  • 13 workers β†’\rightarrow Small group
  • 18,000 kilometers β†’\rightarrow Very long distance
  • 1,000 reports β†’\rightarrow High frequency
  • 19 teams β†’\rightarrow Organized group
  • 46 roads β†’\rightarrow Specific area

Quick Logic: Number + Noun = Clear Fact.

πŸ› οΈ Simple Action Words (Verbs)

Notice these words. They are 'do' words that tell us exactly what is happening:

  1. Want (Desire) β†’\rightarrow They want to stop dust.
  2. Use (Tool) β†’\rightarrow They use GPS.
  3. Find (Discovery) β†’\rightarrow They found 28 problems.
  4. Show (Proof) β†’\rightarrow Show the results.

Tip: Use these four words to talk about almost any project or job!
