我的家乡 My Hometown

Hometown is the place where a person belongs. Chinese people have special feelings about their hometown. No matter where they go, they won’t abandon it and always make some time to visit. My hometown brings me so many happy memories and I wish it could keep its original face forever.
家乡是一个人的归属。中国人对家乡有着特殊的情感，无论他们去哪里，都不会摒弃自己的家乡，总会腾出一些时间回家乡看看。我的家乡给我带来了很多快乐的回忆，我希望它能永远保持原样。

Two years ago, I lived in my hometown. It is a small village, so people there get familiar with each other. When we walked on the country road, everyone smiled when we saw each other. There was no distance for us. In the daytime, I liked to go boating in the small river with my friends, or sometimes I could catch fish. The green trees around me and I could hear the birds singing all the time. It was a paradise for me.
两年前，我住在家乡。那是一个小村庄，所以人们都相互认识。当我们走在乡间小路见面时，每个人都是面带微笑。彼此之间没有距离。白天，我喜欢和我的朋友们在小河流中划船，有时还可以抓鱼。周围是绿树环绕，能听到鸟儿唱歌。这是我的天堂。

However, even the small paradise can’t avoid being polluted seriously. The environment is no more clean, the river becomes smaller and the water is so dirty. When I see this, I feel so pity. If we lose the clean land, how can we survive for long. Protecting the environment is in need.
然而，即使小天堂也无法避免受到严重的污染。环境不再干净，河水越来越小，越来越脏。当我看到这个的时候，我感到很遗憾。如果我们失去了干净的土地，我们如何长久生存。保护环境刻不容缓。
