HomeTown
Where are you from,which part of your country?
I am from a small town of Taian city of ShandongProvince in China.It locates on the northeast of China and southwest of Shandong.
1.what do u like about your hometown?(What would you say is the best thing about your hometown? What's your favourite part of your hometown?Do u like your hometown?)
I love my hometown's beautiful natural scenery[si:neri] very much.My hometown is an inland agricultural region.It is famous for its peach.Most farmers in the town plant peaches ,although they also plant other fruits,but mostly peaches.In the spring,the peach trees are blooming.Without a real look you can't imagine how beautifulthe peach blossom blooming all over the moutain is .It is gorgeous.And cos it's not an industrial town,the environment is good ,the air is clear,the sky is blue,and I also enjoy the peace and quiet there.
2.what do u dislike about your hometown.
I guess the answer would be the economy.
Cas my hometown is not near the centre of the city,its economy is bad.Some area are pretty rundown.Pepole in my hometown are not rich andthe living condition is not very good.Even worsely its economy is shrinking instead of growing cas the peaches sell not very well in recent years.I think maybe the quality of the peaches drops is the reason,you know,its taste is not asgood as before,so less and less people buy peaches.
3.Do u think your hometown is good for young people? No.cas i think my hometown is kind of falling behind the times.it lacks of opporpunity and changes which is very important for the young people.Most old people in the town didn't get the high education.That's why most parents in my hometown try their best to support their children to the college.They think only knowlege can change your fate.
4.what's the nightlife like in your hometown?
Most pepole in my hometown don't go out at
night.After dinner,Children may do homework in their room while the parents watching TV outside.This reminds me of my childhood.cas my parents are not stict with me,so I can watch TVwhile i am doing homework.That's a reward for my good scores in the exam.Parents in my hometown don't care how u study,they just want the result. You give them what they want ,you can getthe freedom.Oh Sorry,i go too far.
5.what would u change about your city?
The economic system i think. People in my hometown they just plant the peaches and sell them to thedealers.The money farmers can get is very limited.If they can be the dealers themselves or the government of my hometown can open bussiness such as peach juice factories,dried peach factories,i think things maygo very differently. And they must improve the quality of the peaches firstly of course.Because in my memory the peach of my hometown are very big and delicious and also have numrous varieties.I am very confused why the quality drops year by year.I just can't get it.
6.What types of public transport can be found in your hometown?
The bus and bike.If people in the town want to go to the market or the shop and students want to go to school ,they often go there by bike or motorcycle.But if they want to go to the city,bus is the first choice.Few people have private cars in my hometown.And if people has some hurry things to do ,and they don'thave a motorcycle and no time to waiting bus ,they may take a taxi.(But the taxi is not a real taxi.I mean it's not like the taxi in big cities.It' kind of a mixture of motorcyle and car.It has three wheels and a carrige shed.In small cities and towns of China you can see this kind transportation everywhere.)But few pepole will do that cas most pepole are pennypinching ,they think taking taxi is a luxury.
Where do you live at the moment?

environment is worse than it used to be.Rivers are polluted and trees are cut down,the air is not as fresh as before.
