At the moment, we only have one charging station and it isn't in the town center. The town should have ten charging stations. 2) Traveling by bike is good for the environment, but it can be dangerous on the busy roads in our town. The town should have bike lanes on Rankin Street and School Road. When people feel safe enough to ride their bikes, they won't drive their cars so often. 3) The town council should help people to organize carpooling. It could create a page on its website for people to share information about when they have a free seat in their car for a journey. More carpooling means fewer cars. ③ Read the tips text.

Using pronouns to avoid repetition Subject pronouns are words you can use instead of nouns that refer to people or things that you have already mentioned earlier in the sentence or in the sentence before. Subject pronouns include: I, he, she, it, they, and we. After using the proper noun in a sentence, you can then use a pronoun instead of it when you mention it again in that sentence or at the start of the next sentence. This makes your writing more interesting to read because you aren't repeating words when you don't need to. For example: Mazen's dad drives an electric car. He prefers it.
