Flowers are said that let decrease crimes .
と書かれているところは、おそらく「花は犯罪を減らすと言われている」と言いたいのだと思います。
●「~と言われている」は
It is said that~ もしくは ~ is / are said to do のどちらかで表現できます。ここでは
〇 It is said that flowers ~.
〇 Flowers are said to ~.
✖ Flowers are said that これは、二つの使い方が混ざってしまっていますのでNG
●「犯罪を減らす」は decrease crimes でも良いですが、decrease は「減る」という自動詞で使われることが多いです。一般的に「減らす」として使われている reduce を使った方が「よく見る表現」になります。let は「使役動詞」的に使っていると思いますがここでは「使役」にする必要はありませんので、不要です。
Flowers are said that let decrease crimes .
→It is said that flowers reduce crimes.

Second,flowers can make the air clean. We make the air dirty every day, but flowers breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen. So the town can keep the air fresh.

同じGrade 4 でもこれだけ作文の内容が違いますので、あまりGradeにはこだわらず、点数ベースで自分の実力を把握しておくことも大切ですね。
