Reading 

G Read the text and mark the sentences ​T​ (true), ​F​ (false) or ​DS​ (doesn’t say). 

Hi Mary,
Sorry to hear about your messy neighbors, but I think I can help. Why don’t you go and talk to them? This
way, you can explain that you don’t want them to put litter in your yard or leave their garbage cans at the end
of your driveway. Maybe they don’t know that they are bothering you. I think you should ask them to clean up
their garbage from your yard, and tell them to collect their garbage cans after pickup on Tuesdays and
Thursdays. Hope my advice helps. Write back and tell me what happens.
