One possible version：

Plastic bags are very popular in our daily life. People go shopping with plastic bags in free markets, super markets, or departments.

But plastic bags are one of the major pollutants. We can see littered plastic bags thrown everywhere, especially along the railways or highways, in the parks or in the rivers. Because plastics is not degradable, once it is thrown in the environment, it will exist for a long time and pollute soil and water. They are even dangerous to wildlife as thousands of sea animals are killed each year when they eat or are choked by plastic bags. What’s more, “white pollution” creates a bad image for China.

So government should make a law to forbid the use of plastic bags in department stores and supermarkets. Meanwhile, people should be encouraged to replace them with paper bags or cloth bags.

【亮点说明】本篇范文采用经典的三段式围绕着“ People should not be encouraged to use plastic bags ”这一话题展开论述。首先作者提出了塑料袋在日常生活中普遍使用这一现象，然后用But plastic bags are one of the major pollutants.作为过渡句和主题句开始了对塑料袋对环境的危害进行介绍。最后得出结论So government should make a law to forbid the use of plastic bags in department stores and supermarkets.紧扣文章中心。在文中作者还使用了But，So等连词有效起到了过渡的作用，而且还使用了what’s more，meanwhile等词使文章内容衔接紧凑，语言通顺流畅。
