The great achievements made by the motherland since the reform and opening up, and the day and night changes of the country, as told in the book, are like playing a movie in my mind. The changes in the motherland can't help but remind me of the great changes in my hometown over the years.
My hometown used to be a small county with a combination of urban and rural areas. Mom said, "The place where we live now used to be a piece of farmland, and the streets used to be pothole-ridden gravel and dirt roads. On sunny days, it was dusty; on rainy days, it was muddy and difficult to walk on, and there were often traffic jams on the way to school. Transportation is very inconvenient." Now, a block of high-rise buildings rise; a big road crisscrossing; a supermarket lined up; a specialty stores, restaurants starring ...... you see: the street vehicles flow unceasingly, the commercial pedestrian street on the sea of people, bustling.
The most noteworthy is the Butterfly Garden Plaza. Gaoyou has been known as the "land of fish and rice", and the Butterfly Garden Square is a pearl here. The square is full of flowers, colorful lights and elegant environment. In the south of the square is a high and low staggered small earth mountain, the hill is full of green trees, is designed to give people a cool, walk. At the bottom of the hill is a small river, on which there are many adults with children boating leisurely. Butterfly Garden Plaza is the children's world, where there are many recreational programs: air beds, climbing, skating rinks, and amusement parks. It is also a good place for adults to work out, relax and have fun. In the past, people do not have a good place to go after dinner, only at home to play mahjong, watch TV, read newspapers. Nowadays, people can come to the square in the morning to dance, practice sword, walk or run. Whenever the lights come on, the square's colorful lights are on, and the colorful lights reflect the square as if it were daytime. People come together from all directions. Butterfly Garden Square is bustling with activity. There are square dancers, roller skaters and walkers. Children chased and played on the lawn, which added to the joyful atmosphere. Especially on holidays, the square fountain is open, it is beautiful, let people forget. Like this square is now built more and more. Such as: Pure Land Square, Wenyou Square, Cultural Square.
These two years, our school also "face-lift". The new basketball court, teaching building, and a beautiful plastic track. These make our school especially beautiful. Inside the building, there are library, music classroom, art classroom, natural laboratory, computer room ...... everyone once class, a swarm of people rushed to belong to their own territory. You see, this side of the people are jumping rope, that side of the people playing shuttlecock, the whole campus, a vibrant scene. The school has become a children's amusement park, so that we really appreciate the fun of learning in play.
Listening to my mom, she said that the way she contacted her relatives and friends back then was by writing letters. Now there are computers, cell phones, as long as you send an e-mail or text message, the other side of a very short period of time can be received, very convenient, fast; what will not be, with Baidu a search, and soon find the answers they want to ...... have cable TV in every home. Telephone shopping, online shopping, a card, a line of communication, e-commerce and many other new terms have appeared in front of us, sitting at home we can travel around the world. Through the Internet, we can see the beautiful scenery all over the world. This shows that our life is so beautiful!
The beautiful campus is changing, the beautiful hometown is changing, the beautiful China is changing. Happiness comes from change. All this is inseparable from the Party's reform and opening up. As long as the party's policy is getting better and better, people's lives will be better!
