It is a characteristic of human nature that people like to get together and have fun, and people live during America's frontier days were no exception. However, because life was hard and the necessities of day-to-day living took up their time, it was common for recreation to be combined with activities necessary for survival. One example of such a form of recreation was logrolling. Many frontier areas were heavily wooded, and in order to settle an area it was necessary to remove the trees. A settler could cut down the trees alone, but help was needed to move the cut trees. After a settler had cut a bunch of trees, he would then invite his neighbors over for a logrolling. 
A logrolling is a community event where families got together for a combination of work and fun. The women would bring food and have a much needed and infrequent opportunity to relax and chat with friends, the children would play together exuberantly, and the men would hold lively competitions that involved rolling logs from place to place as quickly as possible. This was a day of fun for everyone involved, but as its foundation was the need to clear the land. 
The main idea of the passage is that in America's frontier days 	_ 
people combined work with recreation 
people cleared land by rolling logs 
it was necessary for early settlers to clear the land

Environment contains water, soil, air, which are necessary to all of the livings. Therefore, we are trying to find solutions to environmental pollution. People should stop cutting trees for timber instead of planting trees and forests. Besides, people should reduce using cars, motorbikes that cause noise and air pollution. The next measure is that we should prevent farmers from using fertilizers and pesticides that damage soil. In addition, people should not leave litter on land and in water and we should prohibit factories from dumping industrial waste into rivers and lakes. It is high time governments had suitable measures that require companies, as well as individuals, to  stop cutting down and polluting activities.
