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.
家鄉是一個人的歸屬。中國人對家鄉有著特殊的情感，無論他們去哪里，都不會摒棄自己的家鄉，總會騰出一些時間回家鄉看看。我的家鄉給我帶來了很多快樂的回憶，我希望它能永遠保持原樣。
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.
兩年前，我住在家鄉。那是一個小村莊，所以人們都相互認識。當我們走在鄉間小路見面時，每個人都是面帶微笑。彼此之間沒有距離。白天，我喜歡和我的朋友們在小河流中劃船，有時還可以抓魚。周圍是綠樹環繞，能聽到鳥兒唱歌。這是我的天堂。
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，即使小天堂也無法避免受到嚴重的污染。環境不再干凈，河水越來越小，越來越臟。當我看到這個的時候，我感到很遺憾。如果我們失去了干凈的土地，我們如何長久生存。保護環境刻不容緩。
