Being a good citizen
How can we call someone a good citizen? It's not easy to answer a question like this, however, let's
agree that if you want to be a good citizen, you have to be good person first . A good person is someone
who is aware of his rights, duties and responsibilities towards his family, his neighbors, his friends and to
his community in general. So, we can say that when someone has principles, ethics and morals, he can be
a good citizen.
I believe that there are many things that reflect your principles and ethics as a good citizen in your
country. When you help others and volunteer to provide your services to them on your win free will, in this
case you are a good citizen. When you help the poor and pay money for charities and orphanages, in this
case you are a good person and a good citizen too. When you obey the rules of traffic and government
laws in general, you are a good citizen. A good citizen helps the elderly and young children. He also
protects and keeps his environment clean. He treats people with respect and preserves the dignity of
others. Whoever violates the laws of the country will never be a good citizen.
A good citizen knows his rights too, but his rights should never violate the rights of others.
Respecting other's opinion and faith is also an important part of being a good citizen. To sum it up, I believe
that citizenship is not a privilege given to everyone but a huge responsibility and a burden on the shoulder
of every faithful and selfless citizen in this country.
1. A rich man is a good citizen. - (T), (F)
