Example:
My School Library
My school has a big and comfortable library located near the teachers’ office.
Many students come here to read or do their assignments.
The library has many bookshelves full of colorful books. There are long tables
and chairs for students. The walls are painted light blue, and there are posters
about reading. It is very clean and quiet, so I like to study there.
