my hometown

My hometown, a village locating beside a small river, is a wonderful place with beautiful scenery surrounded. Because of the poor geographical environment and without an asphalt road, the whole village is poor and people’s lives are tough. Generally, people grow rice and some other crops for a living. Most young people work at the city, leaving their parents and children at home, which is the status of the vast majority of rural area. It seems that only in this way can rural people live a better life.

我的家乡，是坐落在小河旁，被美景环绕的村庄。由于贫瘠的地理环境，没有一条柏油公路，村子很贫穷，村子里的人也生活艰辛。老乡们都是靠种水稻和其他作物维持生计。大多数年轻人都到城市工作，家里只留下老人和孩子，这是大部分农村地区的普遍境况，只有通过这种方式，农村才能过上好日子。
