My hometown, which is in the south of Shandong Province, is a very beautiful village.It lies on the east bank of a small river, surrounded by green mountains, In the past my hometown was poor, and people led a hard life. They couldn't afford to send their children to school.But ,great changes have taken place in my hometown in the past twenty years. Many families .have not only color TV sets, but also telephones, fridges, computers, and so on.New roads, houses, schools, hospitals have been built.People in my hometown are working hard for a better life.
