My Home Town

　　My home town is a beautiful place. It stands beside a wide river and is rich in fish and rice.

　　But in the old days it was a poor and backward little town. Many people had no work. They lived a hard life.

　　In 1949 my hometown was liberated. Since then great changes have taken place there. The streets have been widened. Factories, schools, hospitals, cinemas and theatres have sprung up one after another. The life of the people is greatly improved.

　　I love my hometown. All the more I love its people. They are working hard so as to make it still richer and more beautiful.

　　我的家鄉(xiāng)是個美麗的地方。它坐落在一條寬闊的河邊，盛產(chǎn)魚和大米。

　　但在過去，它是一個貧窮落后的小鎮(zhèn)。許多人沒有工作他們過著艱苦的生活。

　　1949年，我的家鄉(xiāng)解放了。從那時起那里發(fā)生了巨大的變化。街道拓寬了。工廠、學(xué)校、醫(yī)院、電影院和劇院相繼涌現(xiàn)。人民的生活大大改善了。

　　我愛我的家鄉(xiāng)。我更愛它的人民他們正在努力工作，使它更加富有和美麗。
