The changes in Nanjing

My hometown is Nanjing. It has changed a lot these years. Fifty years ago, Nanjing was just a small poor city. Many people had little food and few clothes. They couldn’t live very happily. However, at that time, there was less air pollution and less noise pollution, the rivers were clean and the sky was blue.

Today, life in Nanjing has changed a lot! It’s no longer a poor city, and high buildings are all over the city. You can see that, Nanjing has become a modern city. People now live in the flats, they eat healthy and tasty food, they wear colorful clothes, and some of them become very rich. But a lot of trouble comes out. The environment here becomes very bad. There is too much air and noise pollution. The river becomes very dirty and the sky is not blue any more. These make us feel very sad.

Life is better today, but at the same time, our environment becomes worse and worse. Environment is very important! Please keep our hometown clean and beautiful.
