The Seine is a beautiful river which goes through France. However,the Seine was seriously polluted. Raphael wanted to clean the river.

Cleaning the river was a big job,Raphael fished rubbish out of the river. He did it nearly every weekend for many years. He fished with his dad. They could collect a lot of rubbish in a single day.
Raphael learned about cleaning rivers from the Internet. Before he found a video. People were fishing metal(金属)objects out of rivers. They used ropes tied to magnets(磁铁). That Christmas,Raphael asked his parents for supplies. He got some ropes,a hook(鱼钩),and a powerful magnet. The magnet was very strong. It could attract metal objects easily.
When he began,fishing for metal was just a weekend activity. But Raphael soon saw just how much rubbish there was at the bottom of the river. He wanted to do more. “It became like a full - time job,” he said.
Raphael won an award for his efforts(努力). Raphael is confident about his progress now. A section of the Seine is clearer than the rest of the river. That is where he first started fishing for metal.
Raphael couldn’t clean the river just by his dad and himself,but he wouldn’t give up.
